There is a lot of commitment involved in buying a new car. The ownership of a vehicle involves regular maintenance. It is possible to depend on towing services most of the time. However, there are still instances when a few minor issues here and there can save you a lot of time and money. Check out the 5 essentials every car owner should have:
#The vehicle Owner’s Manual
It is the most basic and underappreciated asset of your car that can help you in an emergency. The owner’s manual is generally kept in the glove compartment and contains all the information about everything in your vehicle. For example, you can read about the required tyre pressure or recommended fuel levels. In short, it is a driver’s best friend for troubleshooting or maintenance-related advice about your vehicle. For every vehicle that is delivered at CMH Haval Pinetown, the owner’s manual is explained.
#First Aid KitA first aid kit is an inexpensive item that every car owner should have in their vehicle. Accidents can happen anytime, and real danger might be just around the corner. You might end up in a difficult situation in a remote area, and that’s when the first aid kit is the only medical help you can get. For passengers travelling on long routes with little connectivity, it can be a lifesaver. So, it’s highly recommended that you keep a first aid kit in your vehicle containing all the basic medicines and bandages.
#A Spare Tyre with a jack and spanner
A flat tyre is probably the most common issue you will face as a car owner. The funny thing is that it usually happens when you least expect it. You need to always have a spare tyre in your car as it saves a lot of time. You will also need compatible tools to replace your flat tyre. A spanner and a jack are convenient and valuable items that you can rely on when replacing your flat tyre.
#Jumper Cables
A dead car is never a pretty sight and causes a lot of frustration for travellers. Your vehicle could die in the winter season or when the battery weakens to a point where the car cannot start. In such a situation, you need jumper cables that help to kickstart your battery. You will not need to head to the repair shop if you have someone who has a car battery near you. These jumper cables are used to charge one battery through another.
#A Bottle of Windshield Wiper FluidWindshield wiper fluid is a very underrated item that most people neglect. When you drive in cold weather or under foggy conditions, your visibility diminishes, and it is almost always bleak. There are high chances of accidents if you can’t see clearly. You should invest in a high-quality windshield wiper fluid and always keep your visibility clear. You can purchase one at CMH Haval Pinetown’s workshop.
You can also keep other items in your car, like your phone charger, blankets, and a flashlight. You can keep the things you feel would help you in your journey, as they can prove helpful at times.
