When you own a Kia, you can be assured you’ll have a reliable vehicle for you and your family. However, to have a long, happy relationship with your car you must commit to doing some regular Kia maintenance.
Watch Your Fluids
Many different fluids keep your car running smoothly. Engine oil, power steering fluid, brake fluid, transmission fluid, antifreeze/coolant, and windshield wiper fluid should all be kept at the levels recommended by your manufacturer. When you allow these fluids to drop too low or get dark and thick it causes your car to start running roughly which can create costly damage to your engine and other important components in your vehicle.
Inspect Your Hoses and Belts
Over time, your car’s hoses and belts can crack, fray, become loose, or start to get brittle. It’s important to inspect all of these parts regularly for signs of damage. If they happen to get loose or worn it can lead to a lack in your vehicle’s performance, overheating, or damage to the engine.
Examine Your Exhaust System
Typically, you will hear a rattling noise if your exhaust
system is loose, but it’s still important to examine it regularly to ensure
there are no leaks, damage, or broken supports. Having a leak in the exhaust
can not only cause damage to your car, but it can be dangerous for your health,
as well.
