Prepare for Winter With Free Car Care Check

To help motorists prepare for the winter driving season, AAA (www.aaa.com) is offering free 18-point vehicle car care checks on Saturday, October 21, from 8 a.m. to noon, at their state headquarters at 910 North 96 Street in Omaha. Participants are encouraged to enter from Burt Street.

Car components checked on standard passenger vehicles include batteries (cables, clamps, terminals and charging/starting system), belts, hoses, tires (pressure, tread), horn, mirrors, fluid levels (under the hood fluids only), wipers, lights and turn signals. Checks will not be available for RVs, electric vehicles, some sports cars, and hybrid vehicles.

If inclement weather develops, the free car care check may be cancelled. For more information, visit www.aaa.com, call 1 (800) AAA-NEBR, or visit your local AAA office.
