Stay Cool & Safe This Summer: Top 5 Car Services You Need in June
Summer in Essex, MD is a great time for road trips, family outings, and enjoying the sunshine—but rising temperatures can put your vehicle to the test. At J & H Tires, we want to make sure your car is ready for the heat. Here are the top 5 summer car services we recommend in June to keep your ride cool, safe, and dependable.
1. A/C System Check
If your air conditioning isn’t blowing as cold as it used to, it may be low on refrigerant or have a failing component. We'll inspect your A/C system for leaks, check refrigerant levels, and ensure your cabin stays comfortable all season long.
Why it matters: A working A/C system isn’t just about comfort—it also helps defog your windshield and keeps your cabin air clean.
2. Coolant Flush
Your engine’s cooling system works overtime in the summer. If your coolant is old, dirty, or low, your car is at risk of overheating—especially in stop-and-go traffic.
Why it matters: A simple coolant exchange can prevent breakdowns and costly engine damage.
3. Battery Test
Heat can be just as hard on your battery as winter cold. If your battery is a few years old, now’s a good time to have it tested or replaced before it leaves you stranded.
Why it matters: Batteries tend to fail without warning in extreme temperatures. A quick test gives you peace of mind.
4. Tire Inspection
Summer driving means more mileage, and your tires need to be in top shape. We'll check tread depth, air pressure, and look for signs of uneven wear or damage.
Why it matters: Properly inflated and aligned tires improve safety, fuel efficiency, and handling.
5. Oil Change & Fluid Top-Off
Hot weather can cause engine oil to break down faster. We'll ensure your oil is clean and your fluids (transmission, brake, power steering, windshield washer) are at proper levels.
Why it matters: Fresh oil helps your engine run smoother and cooler during summer drives.
Bonus: Plan Ahead for Road Trips
If you're hitting the road this summer, ask about our Pre-Trip Inspection Package. We'll check all the major systems—brakes, lights, belts, hoses, and more—to ensure you're ready for the highway.
