Summer is here, and to help you beat the heat, we recommend extensive Lexus service and preventative maintenance. That includes an oil change, air conditioning service, and brake inspections to keep you safe from high temperature and summer weather. Before it gets too deep into summer, make sure you schedule a service appointment at Lexus of Jacksonville to get these tasks done.
Oil Change
First, if you haven’t scheduled an oil change service in a while, summer is the perfect opportunity to switch oil out of your tank. That’s because a hot, humid Florida summer changes the viscosity of your oil; it gets thinner as the heat rises, and that can impact engine performance. Regular oil changes, especially before summer, ensures that your car properly regulates engine temperature with clean oil that protects against overheating.
Air Conditioning Service
Nobody wants to be trapped inside a vehicle without working air conditioning on a sweltering summer day. So you need to check that your A/C vents are blowing out air correctly and that there are no blockages in the system. Our dealership will also inspect your coolant system and air filters to verify that your cabin receives clean, cool air.
Brake Repairs
Hot weather can cause your vehicle’s fluids to evaporate or thin out, including your brake fluid—which means you need to inspect your brake fluid levels. Other brake services are also recommended for summer, including a full brake inspection and brake pad replacements. That way, you’re protected against the summer rains as well as the heat.
