See and Be Seen: Why Headlights Matter in Summer Safety
June 3, 2025
When most people think about using headlights, they think about night driving. But during the 100 Deadliest Days of Summer, headlights are just as important, especially when it comes to safety.

Storms can roll in quickly, and cloudy mornings or dusty evening drives can make it harder to see the road. That’s why working headlights aren’t just for nighttime, they help you see clearly and help other drivers see you.
If your headlights look cloudy or yellow, they may not shine as bright as they should. And if one is dim or burned out, it can throw off your depth perception, making driving more dangerous. You may also be at risk of getting pulled over or missing important signs.
Before you or your teen hits the road this summer, take a few minutes to check your lights. Turn them on, walk around your car, and make sure both front and rear lights are working. A quick fix today can help prevent an accident tomorrow.

Belts keep systems like your alternator and power steering working. Hoses carry important fluids like coolant and help your engine stay at the right temperature. Over time, heat and wear can cause them to crack , fray , or leak . If a belt breaks or a hose bursts while you’re driving, it could lead to engine damage or even leave you stuck on the side of the road. That’s why it’s smart to have them checked regularly—especially before long trips or hot summer days. If you’re unsure about the condition of your belts and hoses, we’re here to help with a quick check. Call 972-625-1836 to make a reservation to have your belts and hoses inspected by a certified technician.

High temperatures can cause fluids to thin out , break down faster, or even evaporate —putting your car at risk for overheating or part failure. If your coolant is low, your engine can overheat. If your oil is dirty or your transmission fluid is old, important parts may not be properly protected. The summer heat makes staying on top of fluid checks more important than ever.
