With regular Volvo maintenance, you can help to keep your vehicle safe and comfortable, extend the life of essential parts and systems, and improve vehicle efficiency on every drive. Maintenance is especially important when the temperatures begin to warm after winter, as winter driving conditions can put significant strain on your car. Learn about the most important maintenance tasks for spring at Fields Volvo Cars Waukesha.

Wheel Alignment

Your suspension is the system that keeps your vehicle driving straight and gives you greater driver control. Winter conditions, like icy roads or the potholes caused by freeze and thaw fluctuations, can throw your suspension out of alignment, increasing the risk of tire wear and pulling when driving. Schedule a wheel alignment after winter to keep your vehicle safe on every ride.

Brake Inspection

In the winter months, drivers tend to use their brakes more frequently, managing icy conditions and reduced visibility. Temperature fluctuations can also cause the metal of braking systems to contract, increasing the risk of wear. A brake inspection will let you know if your brakes need to be repaired or replaced before the seasons change.

Oil Change

One of the most important functions of the oil in your vehicle is to protect the engine. It does this by capturing dirt and debris from the road surface before it can get into the engine compartment and cause damage. In the winter, this includes salt and grime from dirty accumulated snow, which means the oil and filter become saturated more quickly, and you’ll want to schedule an oil change sooner. This service gives our pros an opportunity to fill your fluids and check the air pressure in your tires, too.
