5 STEPS TO AVOID CAR BREAKDOWNS
In our daily commute, the last thing we need is an unexpected car breakdown. This article unfolds five straightforward steps which are easy to understand and offers practical guidance for beginners and experienced drivers as well
1. Periksa Tarikh Luput Waranti Bateri Kereta Anda
It's crucial to know when your car battery needs replacement. Car batteries typically last 1-2 years, but this varies based on usage and climate. Look for signs like slow engine crank or dim lights, which indicate battery wear. Modern vehicles may have battery health indicators on the dashboard. Also, ensure your battery connections are clean and tight.
If you’re thinking of replacing your car battery, we recommend ASTRA battery by Bateriku.com to be your next choice! ASTRA is our very own battery brand which was released in 2022 and has already sold more than 300,000 units nationwide. As it stands, the warranty rate still stands at below 0.1% which indicates its quality in performance. Manufactured at one of the top manufacturing companies in China, our ASTRA battery comes with an affordable price but maintains the highest quality comparable to top battery brands in the world. The best part is that we offer our nationwide warranty and after sales service via our Pitstops and 24/7/365 Contact Centre
2. Periksa Tahap Air Radiator Anda Secara Berkala
Maintaining the radiator water level is vital for preventing overheating. Use coolant instead of water for better protection, especially in extreme temperatures. Coolant should be checked every 80,000 kilometer or every five years, whichever comes first. Constantly monitor your vehicle’s temperature via your dashboard indicators and regularly inspect for leaks or radiator damage. Also be sure to refill your coolant or water at the designated compartment.
3. Ensure Your Tire Pressure is Checked:
Proper tire pressure is essential for safe driving. Check your tire pressure monthly and before long trips. The correct pressure is usually found on a sticker in the driver's side door jamb or in the owner's manual. Remember, tire pressure changes with temperature fluctuations. Additionally, inspect tires for tread wear and damage. Replace tires every 6 years or sooner if they show significant wear.
4. Electrical System Maintenance
Regularly check your vehicle's electrical system, including lights, alternator, and starter. Warning signs of electrical issues include dimming lights, issues with starting the car, or unusual noises. It's recommended to have a professional mechanic inspect the electrical system every year or when you notice any irregularities.
5. Alternator Check
The alternator should be checked regularly as part of vehicle maintenance. A failing alternator can show signs like dimming or flickering lights, dead battery, difficulty starting, or strange noises. Most alternators
have a lifespan of 7 years or about 100,000 to 150,000 miles. Regular checks during scheduled services can prevent sudden failures
If you’re looking to operate all of the points above by yourself, it's crucial to ensure you have the necessary tools and equipment.
Before initiating any maintenance or inspection, refer to your vehicle's owner's manual for specific instructions and safety precautions. Always adhere to proper safety procedures and exercise caution when working with car components. If uncertainty arises about any aspect of maintenance or inspection, seeking professional assistance is advisable.
