Tire pressure should be checked regularly
One of the most common problems cars face during autumn is reduced tire pressure. This happens because the air temperature drops during the fall, and the air inside the tires is also cold. As we already know from physics lessons, warm air expands while cold air contracts. Contracted air means lower tire pressure, increasing the car’s fuel consumption and extending the stopping distance in emergency situations. For this reason, LLLParts specialists encourage drivers to regularly check the tire pressure and, if it has dropped, to inflate the tires additionally.
Debris and tree leaves that can cause damage
The next common problem that most cars face is water drainage channels clogged with garbage and tree leaves. Most of you have at least once heard about situations when water mysteriously appears in the trunk or even in the car cabin. The most common reason for such a situation is that the drains are clogged with garbage and leaves collected during autumn. However, as a capable car owner, you can take control of this situation. Check the drainage channels and clean them often and thoroughly if there is any debris in them. This way, you won’t have to face any complications that were not anticipated, and your car will last longer. The panels, debris, and leaves can also hide the cooling radiator at the front of the car, so checking is also essential. A covered radiator is much less efficient at removing heat, which can cause problems with the car’s cooling system and engine overheating.
Condensate that accumulates on the car body
During autumn, the weather is not constant, which means increased humidity and continuous temperature fluctuations. Such conditions are ideal for the formation of condensation on the car body. Normally, the condensate remains on the body for quite a long time, especially at night, until the morning sun appears and warms the air. Such direct and continuous accumulation of moisture on the car body often damages those parts of the car body whose varnish and paint are damaged. This is how rust appears, so it is worthwhile for every driver to inspect their car’s body and remove any damage before the fall begins.
By the way, as it was already mentioned earlier, the autumn season causes challenges not only for cars, but also for drivers. They are also faced with discomfort due to dirt and cold getting into the car interior, so they are often looking for solutions that would help reduce this discomfort. Fortunately, there are various car parts like heated seats, rubber mats, steering wheels with heating function and more that can help to increase the driving pleasure and make you feel more comfortable.
