SPRING BREAK TRAVEL TIPS

Tuesday, March 16th, 2021

Are you planning on a road trip for spring break? After a long year of staying home, we can’t blame you! Before you hit the open road, we want you to think about your vehicle, some that may have been sitting in your driveway unused for most of last year.  Here’s a few tips to ensure your travel is set up for success:

1. Schedule Your Oil Change

One of the easiest ways to maintain your vehicle is to ensure the oil and fluids are changed regularly.  Be sure to call our Guest Services department at 859-276-3546 a few weeks prior to your trip to schedule a reservation.  This will also give time to correct any concerns your technician may bring to your attention.

2. Check Your Wipers

Another easy item on your checklist- wiper blades!  These are easy to replace and make a huge impact if you run into inclement weather.  You should also check that washer fluid level while you’re at it, topping off if necessary

3. Daylight Savings?  Check those bulbs!

With daylight savings time coming up, take the early morning darkness as a time to  check those bulbs.  A quick visual once over on your exterior lights can catch any concerns that may pop up prior to travelling

4. Windows Down, AC Up

Warmer weather can mean windows down, but it can also be time to crank up that AC.  Have your systems serviced during routine maintenance and be confident that you can stay cool while travelling.

5. Emergency Assistance

Even the best intentions can sometimes not predict an issue popping up.  Check your insurance policies, warranties and roadside assistance options before your trip.  This is one item that while you hope you don’t need it, you will be happy to have if you do.

Prepping your vehicle will allow you to focus on all the fun to come.  Where will you eat? What about some fun stops?  Schedule your service at Don Jacobs today.  Your service advisor can’t wait to hear all about your adventures!
