Common Chevy Repairs for Summer

Summer is hard on every part of your car, which means any issues you noticed during the winter may get worse. Drive in to Scott Chevrolet and have our team perform any necessary Chevrolet repairs for a stress-free summer.

Battery Service

Summer is just as hard on your car battery as winter, and when your battery reaches the tail end of its lifespan it becomes even more sensitive to temperature. Have your battery tested at the beginning of summer, especially if you had to jump it during cold weather. If the capacity is low, have it replaced now to avoid a frustrating dead battery during the hottest part of the summer.

Tire Repair

Between the hot air and the even hotter asphalt, your tires can easily get overheated and burst or perform badly during the summer. Have our team inspect your tires to make sure they have the durability and tread to survive the hot months. Check the recommended tire pressure for summer in your owner’s manual and make sure your tires are within the range to reduce your chances of heat-related blowouts.

Overheated Engine

Long, sunny drives with the air conditioning blasting may seem like the ideal way to spend a summer weekend, but keep in mind your engine’s heat. If your coolant isn’t topped up and you overuse your A/C, you can do lasting damage to your engine that requires coming in for a major repair. If you’re worried about overheating, keep some extra coolant in your trunk and ensure your engine thermometer is accurate.
