Fall car maintenance includes checking the battery, tires, fluids, wipers, lights, & emergency supplies. Doing this before temperatures drop can improve safety.
Addressing brake problems like squealing or grinding noises, steering wheel vibration during braking, and long stopping distances right away improves safety on wet roads.
Wet roads reduce traction, making issues such as poor wheel alignment, low tire pressure, uneven tire wear, and worn suspension components easier to notice.
