Car Summer Check

It is best to schedule your car summer check or holiday / vacation check before a long journey, during hot weather, or at the start of the summer season. A car check before long trip ensures your vehicle is safe, fully prepared and less likely to break down on the road.

Recommended times for a summer car check up:

• Before any car trip or family holiday
• Prior to a road trip car check abroad
• At the beginning of summer as part of your summer car service
• If you notice wear on tyres, brakes, cooling or battery

For complete peace of mind, book your summer vehicle check at a Bosch Car Service near you and enjoy stress-free travel.
