Regular checks keep your car safe and reliable. Inspect tyre pressure and tread every two weeks, and check engine oil, coolant, and brake fluid levels at least once a month. Lights, wipers, and battery health should be reviewed monthly too. Before any long trip, do a quick check of tyres, fluids, and brakes. Follow your manufacturer’s service schedule for major inspections, usually every 10,000 to 15,000 km or once a year. Listen for unusual noises and watch for dashboard warning lights in between. Consistent maintenance prevents breakdowns. For professional inspections and roadside support, contact Crossroads Helpline.
