RIDGEWOOD, N.J., April 28, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- According to the Car Council, eight out of every ten vehicles fail at least one component of the vehicle inspection process. But by taking little steps like changing your oil or even your washer fluid, you can prevent some major problems. The Car Coach, Lauren Fix has some quick, inexpensive, and easy ways to save in the long run.
Fix says, "Spring is the perfect time of year to break out that safety check list again. When the weather begins to warm, motorists may think their driving cares have melted away with the snow and ice, but that's not true. Spring brings its own set of challenges like slick, wet roads, potholes and road construction. So you need to make sure your vehicle is in top shape as well."
