Each time you fill up your gas tank, inspect the auto's fluid levels (oil, transmission fluid, coolant, brake fluid, power steering fluid) and look for leaks and deteriorated lines/hoses. · Look down. Look at the ground where the car was parked to see if any fluids are leaking. · Keep it clean. Have the engine degreased to cut down on the buildup of oil and grease. · Look, listen, and smell. Is the car trying to speak to you? Pay attention to noises, odors, and your car's instrument panel. If you notice anything unusual, get it checked out by a technician immediately. · Ease up. During hot weather your vehicle can run hotter than usual. Avoid heavy stop-and-go traffic and aggressive driving habits.
