What to Check in Your Car Before a Long Trip?

[AustinMarie]

Before a long trip, check the tires, appearance, and paint surface of your car. The specific checks before a long trip are as follows: Tire Inspection: After a long-distance drive, some vehicles may show obvious damage, excessive wear, or 'injuries' on the wheels. Depending on the specific situation, you can choose to replace them with a spare tire and visit a 4S shop for further inspection as soon as possible. Additionally, after prolonged bumpy rides, the tire alignment may fail, with the most noticeable sign being the vehicle pulling to one side or bouncing. If this happens, it's also necessary to have it checked at a 4S shop. Appearance and Paint Surface Inspection: The appearance includes the body surface and all visible parts. Since you may occasionally drive at high speeds, it's inevitable to encounter small stones bouncing off the road, which can damage the car's paint surface. And once the car gets scratched, anyone would feel distressed. The inspection method is to thoroughly wash the car and then walk around it twice, carefully observing for any scratches on the paint surface or damage to any parts.
