Motorists Can Celebrate Fall Car Care Month in Three Easy Steps

BETHESDA, Md., Oct. 2, 2017 -- October is Fall Car Care Month, the ideal time of the year to pay special attention to that vehicle you depend on so much to get you where you are going, says the Car Care Council.

"Celebrating Fall Car Care Month with some basic service is as easy as one, two, three and it doesn't have to take much time or money," said Rich White, executive director, Car Care Council. "In fact, many repair facilities and auto parts stores offer special pricing and promotions during the month of October, so this is the perfect time to give your vehicle a little TLC."

The non-profit Car Care Council suggests following three easy steps to help keep your vehicle running safely, dependably and efficiently:

  • Schedule a vehicle inspection with your favorite professional service technician or do it yourself to make sure your vehicle is road ready for the winter months ahead.
  • Order a free copy of 80-page Car Care Guide at www.carcare.org/car-care-guide. The guide is perfect for the glove box and is a valuable reference for every car owner.
  • Sign up for the free custom service schedule at www.carcare.org/custom-service-schedule. With email reminders, the schedule will help you remember to keep car care on track. The Car Care Council is the source of information for the "Be Car Care Aware" consumer education campaign promoting the benefits of regular vehicle care, maintenance and repair to consumers.
