1.Tires
Tires can get overheated, under or over inflated
which can result in massive accidents. Another
thing to take note in the wearing of tires which
will result in loss of friction and a danger
especially if roads are wet and slippery. After
you repair a puncture if the mechanic fails to
tighten the lug nuts properly, it might be a
potential risk once the tire is loose.

2.BRAKES
If your brake is making any squeaking or weird
sounds every time to stop, get it checked
immediately. Brake linings start wearing with use
so replace it at regular intervals depending on
usage. The metal used in brakes have limited
service life so get it serviced regularly. If
your vehicle is pulling to one side when you
brake it is probably due to faulty brakes.

3. SUSPENSION
Suspension is the sink between the tires and the
road. The suspension has to be stable for a
proper functioning of the vehicle. The steering
and suspension are inter-related, so it is
important to keep in in-sink. Steering keeps you
safe and helps you avoid any obstacles on the
road. Make sure you get your suspension checked
at regular intervals by auto repair shop near you.

4. Windshield wipers
If your vision is not clear you are bound to a
victim of dangerous accidents. If by chance you
have damaged or broken your Windshield wipers you
will be exposed to snow and rain so make sure you
fix it immediately. It is one of the most
important things in your vehicle and as you
cannot predict the weather do not risk your life
by not fixing the windshield wipers in a timely
manner.

5. Securing Cargo
You might have luggage and other equipment on the
roof of your vehicle which needs to be placed and
kept properly if needed tie it up so that it does
not fly out. It might harm any pedestrian, other
vehicle or come on your bonnet creating a massive
distraction and eventually accidents. So make
sure cargo is always secured fastened to avoid
disastrous situations.

6. Improper headlights
Your vision has to be clear at all times while
driving and to ensure that lighting plays an
important role. Especially when you are driving
on rugged roads post evening make sure your
headlights are proper. On a bi-weekly basis
check both your headlights and tail lights
ensuring maximum visibility.
