Preparing Your Kia for Optimal Performance With Expert Kia Maintenance from Your Kia Dealer

Spring

Check the Fluids 

Check the level and condition of your Kia’s oil, coolant, brake, transmission, power steering, and windshield washer fluid. Refill or change them if needed. 

Change the Engine and Cabin Air Filters 

Ask your Kia technician to check your car’s filters. If the engine air filter or cabin air filters look dirty, change them. Clean filters are important. The engine air filter keeps dirt away from your engine and the cabin air filter ensures clean air blows into your car. 

Get an AC Inspection 

Make sure your air conditioning works well and get it serviced before the summer heat kicks in.

Summer 

Check Your Engine Cooling System 

Summer heat can cause your Kia to overheat, so schedule an engine cooling system service. Our Kia technicians will check the radiator and coolant and flush it if needed. 

Change the Oil 

If you haven’t changed the oil in six months, now is a great time. Change the oil to protect the engine components. A new oil filter will keep dirt and dust away from your engine and the oil cleaner for longer. 

Get a Battery Test 

High temperatures can mess with your car battery. Ask your technician to check and test it to see if it’s still going strong. 

Keep Your Tires Inflated 

Changes in temperature cause tire pressure to fluctuate. Check your tire pressure regularly in summer and keep them inflated to the proper PSI.

Fall 

Make Sure the Heating System Work 

Ask us to inspect your Kia’s heating system to make it works properly in winter to keep your cabin nice and warm. 

Have Your Suspension and Steering Systems Inspected 

Book a checkup with us for a suspension and steering systems inspection. Worn or broken parts can seriously affect your safety in snowy conditions in the coming winter months. 

Winter

Make sure your Kia is ready to tackle snowy roads in the winter with a comprehensive Express Service checkup. 

Get a Brake Inspection

Visit us for a comprehensive brake inspection to keep you safe on the road. 

Swap to Snow Tires

When the temperature drops to below 45 degrees, swap your all-season tires for winter tires. This will give you more grip and control over your vehicle.

Taking care of your Kia all year round will keep your car reliable, save you money on repairs and gas, and make your Kia last longer. Stop at Kia of Coatesville, PA, today.
