Drive Safer This Fall with Honda Service

As summer’s scorching heat gives way to cooler temperatures, autumn is one of our favorite times of year. However, it also brings shorter days, wetter weather, and other challenges you must prepare for. Scheduling Honda service at Pacific Honda ensures your vehicle will be ready for the road ahead.

Inspect Headlights

As the days get shorter, we drive in the dark more. If your headlights have dimmed or are improperly calibrated, your visibility won’t be all it should be. Visit us to ensure they’re working as they should.

Slow Down When Approaching Foliage

Leaves and road debris can reduce traction significantly. When they pile up, they can conceal bumps, potholes, and other hazards, so exercise caution, especially if you’re in an area where you’re not as familiar with the road’s contours. This is also an ideal time to check your tires’ pressure and condition, rotating them if it’s been a while and replacing them if their tread depth is insufficient.

Drive Safely in the Fog

High humidity and lower morning temperatures often cause fog and reduce your visibility. Keep your fog lights illuminated and drive with extra care, giving yourself extra stopping distance to be safe.

Be Mindful of The Time Change

The sun rises and sets at different times in the fall, creating dangerous glare. Keep your windows clean, and stow a pair of sunglasses in your car even if you have transition lenses since those won’t darken as much due to your windows’ UV coating.
