Prepare Your Car For Monsoon – 5 Things You Should Check

The monsoon season is here and this marks the end of the soaring high temperature during the summer. Though this makes it a great time to pack the bags and explore places, driving in the monsoon season can be a bit challenging.

Coupled with consistent rainfall, taking care of your car also becomes a little bit difficult. As such, here are 5 monsoon car checks you must do to ensure a safe journey every time.

Check Tyres

Tyres are often overlooked by most car users in India. Since tyres are the only component of the car that maintains contact with the road, their condition is very crucial for the safety of the car.

The extreme temperatures during the summer season may have caused additional wear on the tyres. As such, it is best to check the condition of the tyres before taking them through the monsoon season. Also, a good tyre should have decent tread depth to disperse the water from the road.

Replace Wiper Blades

Apart from the low traction situation, driving in the monsoon can be tricky due to low visibility as well. That being said, direct exposure to the sun could have damaged the rubber blade on the wipers.

These damaged wiper blades can further hinder visibility and may cause permanent scratches on the windshield. As such, it is very essential to replace these damaged wiper blades ahead of the monsoon season.

AC

Though checking the car AC may not seem important during the monsoon season, in reality, it is extremely important as the performance of the defogger is directly linked to the performance of the AC.

Check Braking System

The brakes of a car must be given extra care ahead of the monsoon season due to reduced traction. If necessary, changing the worn-out brake pads and brake rotors will improve the braking performance of the car.

Check For Leaks & Rust

Checking your car for leaks and rust before the monsoon season is very essential as any leaks can be disastrous and rusting process can accelerate during the monsoon season. As such, it is highly recommended to identify any rusting and leaks before the monsoon season.

Thoughts About Monsoon Car Checks

Ahead of the monsoon season, it is best to check the condition of your car due to additional wear and tear during the summer season. Also, following the above tips ensures a better and safer driving experience during the monsoon season.
