Check Your Tires and Your Air Pressure

If your tires aren’t road-ready, then you’re not going anywhere. One of the first things you need to do to prepare your car for a road trip is check its tires and tire pressure. Make sure that your tires aren’t damaged in any way, they have a lot of tire tread, and check their air pressure, too.

Check the Brakes

A road trip is not the time to realize your brakes are going out. Brakes ensure you have the stopping power you need when you need it, and if they go out, suffice it to say, it’s not a good thing. Be sure to stop by your local auto repair shop to ensure your brake pads, rotors, shoes, and drums are good to go before you leave.

Check Your Battery

Most of us have probably had to ask a stranger for a jump, and most of us know how awkward this can be. Checking your battery is a task that many auto repair shops do for free. Simply stop by your local auto repair shop and ask for a free battery test. This will give you peace of mind on your road trip.

Check Your Fluids

When a passing truck throws mud on your car windshield, it’s not a good time to be low on windshield wiper fluid. Similarly, you don’t want to be low on engine oil when you are in a strange town. Be sure to check all of your fluids, including oil, coolant, brake, transmission, and power steering fluid before you leave town.

Be Sure You Have Emergency Supplies

Emergencies can happen at any time, and if your car breaks down in the middle of nowhere, it usually is not such a good thing. Be prepared for anything when leaving on a road trip. Check to be sure you have a first-aid kit, extra batteries for flashlights, water, food, booster cables, emergency flares, and more just in case.
