The Ultimate Guide to Seasonal INFINITI Maintenance at Your INFINITI Dealer

Regular vehicle maintenance is key to ensuring safety and performance. But your INFINITI’s needs vary over the year, especially here in Maryland where we experience all four seasons. Whether you’re gearing up for a summer road trip or preparing for the colder winter months, addressing your vehicle’s seasonal needs will help you avoid unexpected breakdowns. Your INFINITI dealer is the perfect place to schedule INFINITI maintenance appointments.

Spring

Winter weather can take a toll on some of the major components of your vehicle, so spring is the perfect time to check things over. Test your battery, and inspect your tires for any damage, making sure they’re inflated to the correct pressure. Spring is also a great time to change the oil and your filters.

You’ll also want to give your vehicle a good spring wash to get rid of the salt and debris collected from winter roads. If left in place, road salt can cause the vehicle to rust. Don’t forget to wash down the undercarriage of the vehicle.

Summer

Summer brings higher temperatures, so it’s important to check the condition of your radiator, hoses, and coolant levels to prevent the vehicle from overheating on road trips. You’ll also want to make sure your air conditioner is functioning properly. And because high temperatures can strain the battery, bring your vehicle in for a battery test so we can replace it if it’s weak.

Fall

During fall, the days start getting a little shorter, and you’ll find yourself on the road after dark more frequently. This is a good time to test your headlights, taillights, brake lights, and turn signal to make sure all are in good working order. Because fall often brings rain, check your windshield wipers and top off your wiper fluid. With colder weather on the way, test your heater and defroster to make sure both are working properly.

Winter

Cold temperatures and the possibility of inclement weather loom large during the winter season. Make sure your vehicle has a sufficient amount of antifreeze, and because underinflated tires have less traction on slippery roads, make a habit out of regularly checking your tire pressure.

Routine maintenance is key to keeping your INFINITI safe and well-maintained throughout the seasons. When you’re ready to schedule your next service appointment, give us a call at J.B.A. INFINITI of Ellicott City in Ellicott City, MD.
