Prepare Your Volvo for Fall in Shreveport

The change of seasons is the perfect time for Volvo maintenance at Volvo Cars Shreveport. Vehicles have different needs in the cold weather, so it's good to know your Volvo is ready for what Mother Nature brings to the roads between Benton and Stonewall.

Keeping Your Car Safely Running

Your Volvo needs routine maintenance to continue running like new. The service team at Volvo Cars Shreveport knows the engineering under the hood better than anyone in the Shreveport area. When you bring your Volvo in for a fall inspection, our service technicians will inspect the hoses, belts, and fluid levels.

As the fall season approaches, have your battery checked. Cold weather can affect the battery negatively, especially if it’s aging. They’ll check the terminals and connections while determining its remaining life span. Proactively replacing your battery prevents you from needing roadside assistance if the older battery dies.

If you need an oil change, the service technicians can take care of it. Fresh and clean engine oil keeps your Volvo’s engine running smoothly, even when the temperatures drop. Every service visit includes a multipoint inspection where our technicians check your tire pressure and tread wear to determine if you need new tires. Your Volvo tire treads make a difference when the weather changes and roads become slippery.

The technicians at Volvo Cars Shreveport also check the brakes during the multipoint inspection. Your Volvo’s brakes are the number one safety feature, so they need to work properly. We can also check your vehicle’s brake lights.

Keeping the Cabin Warm and Tidy

Your Volvo maintenance schedule for fall should include preparing for colder weather. When the temperatures drop, you’ll want your heater to function properly. Our technicians can inspect your Volvo's heater core, blower, and other components to ensure you won’t be left in the cold when fall hits.

We also recommend checking your wiper blades and replacing them if they are leaving unwanted streaks on your windshield.

You can also help with fall car care service by putting the necessities in the cabin. Fall necessities include a flashlight, first aid kit, jumper cables, ice scraper, and a blanket. These items can keep you safe in an emergency. Many Volvo drivers put all-weather floor mats in their cars to keep the interior clean.
