Summer is here and that means one thing: road trips! While there’s plenty of beach fun to be had in south Florida over summertime, we know that many locals also venture outside of the state to visit family, national parks and other locales. Before you hit the road, though, make sure you take care of a few technical details if you want to ensure that you have safe and happy travels.

The infographic above outlines some key guidelines for prospective tourists. Along with getting your car’s tires and fluids checked before you travel, it’s also key to make sure any recall alerts on your vehicle have been taken care of and to prep your car for your children, to ensure their safety on your cross-country excursions. If your tire tread looks uneven or bald in spots, it can be dangerous to put any more excessive wear on them via a road trip, so stop by the Toyota of Deerfield Beach service center and have our technicians take a look and replace your tires if needed. Long road trips can also be hard on car engines and other vital systems if they are not properly lubricated, so we’ll check your car’s fluids before you leave town, too. In addition, when you come to us we’ll check your car for Toyota recalls and perform any necessary work for free.

We hope you enjoy safe travels this summer and are here to help you prepare to hit the road!
