Certain forces of nature, such as uneven terrain, mud, and heavy winds, are things that every Jeep owner has to deal with as you barrel down the trail. We highly suggest that you replace your wiper blades, check your plastic windows, and replace any older parts in your exterior and interior that may have wear and tear that was caused by the dreaded winter months. 

Seeing is an essential part of off-roading, so before Spring hits, you should make sure that your headlights are in the best condition. That way, they will be able to function when you need them the most. If you tend to take your Jeep out off-roading a lot, you will need to clean them off quite a bit during the Spring months, so thorough cleaning and a check can go a long way. If you need a complete headlight replacement, make sure that you stop by Chrysler of Culpeper to have that taken care of. 

Changing your oil and replacing your oil filter will keep your engine running smoothly throughout the Spring. You also want to make sure that you have enough wiper fluid, power steering fluid, coolant, and brake fluid. Your Jeep overheating or running out of power steering fluid when you are off-roading is the last thing that should happen, so don't leave any of them off your list. You also want to be sure to check your battery as you don't want a dead battery when you are cruising around the back roads. Make sure that your battery is adequately charged or have it changed completely here at Chrysler of Culpeper. 

Having proper traction and braking power are critical when you are driving on difficult terrain. You need to make sure that you have enough tread on your tires and thick enough brake pads so that you can avoid trees, other vehicles, or worse. If your tire tread is low and the breaks are worn out, get them replaced here at Chrysler of Culpeper. 

Last but not least are the belts and hoses. The belts inside your Jeep allows all the other parts to keep moving, including the alternator and a powering the steering pump. If your belt snaps while you're driving, it can lead to severe engine damage, which results in an expensive repair. Your hoses help move the radiator fluids throughout the Jeep, and if one of those hoses goes out, your vehicle can overheat and can cause damage to your engine. To keep your ride nice and cool, head down to Chrysler of Culpeper to have your hoses checked.
