Introduction:
Summer isn’t just about sunscreen and sunglasses; it also calls for proper car maintenance. High temperatures can seriously impact your vehicle’s performance, from tire pressure to the efficiency of your cooling system. At Affinity Tire & Wheels Corp, we perform a comprehensive inspection to ensure you face the heat safely, comfortably, and without any surprises on the road.
Here’s our summer checklist, designed to help your car perform at its best during the hottest months of the year.
✅ Tire Pressure & Condition Check
Hot air increases tire pressure, which can lead to uneven wear or even blowouts if not properly adjusted.
During our inspection, we check:
The exact pressure based on temperature and vehicle load.
Tread wear and the condition of the sidewalls.
Tire rotation if necessary.
A good, properly inflated tire is key for summer performance and safety!
❄️ Air Conditioning System Check
Can you imagine being stuck without A/C in the middle of a heatwave? Neither can we.
- That’s why we inspect:
- Refrigerant levels.
- Cabin filter condition.
- System pressure and overall performance.
- If something isn’t cooling as it should, we’ll fix it before it becomes a bigger problem.
💧 Engine Cooling System Review
Overheating is one of the most common causes of breakdowns in summer.
During our inspection, we verify:
- Coolant levels.
- The condition of the water pump, hoses, and radiator.
- System pressure and potential leaks.
- This ensures your engine stays cool and runs correctly.
🔋 Battery & Electrical System Check
Heat can be more damaging to your car battery than cold.
In our check-up, we review:
- Charge levels.
- The condition of terminals and connections.
- Estimated remaining lifespan.
- Avoid getting stranded by a dead battery in the middle of summer.
🛑 Brakes & Fluid Check
Heavy traffic, long road trips, and summer rains demand more from your braking system.
We take care of:
- Checking the level and quality of brake fluid.
- Assessing the wear of pads and rotors.
- Verifying other essential fluids like engine oil and windshield washer fluid.

Your summer deserves peace of mind on every mile.
