Protect your Orlando Toyota from the heat this summer

Summer can be exciting, but the heat can also be brutal! Did you know that it can be damaging to your Orlando Toyota? There are ways to keep your car as good as it looked on the day you bought it, even in the summer! To help you keep your car in immaculate condition, our Toyota dealership is sharing tips for protecting your Orlando Toyota from the summer sun and heat. 

Don’t let the summer sun damage your Orlando Toyota

You spent a lot of money for your Orlando Toyota, which is why you want to keep it looking like-new for as long as you can! The heat from the sun can be a problem, though, as it can cause damage to your car. This is why you should take precautionary measures to ensure your car doesn’t succumb to the raging sun! Here are some tips from our Orlando Toyota dealership for protecting your car:
Condition your leather upholstery
Does your new Toyota have leather seats or a leather-trimmed steering wheel? Too much heat and sunlight can cause leather to dry and crack. To prevent this from happening, you should use a high-quality leather conditioner frequently! You can find this and other car cleaning solution at our Toyota Parts Center.
Clean and wax your car
One the best things you can do for your car during the summer is wash and wax it often. Washing your car will help clear it of dirt and bugs that can damage the paint. Waxing it will create a barrier between the paint of your Orlando Toyota and the sun, which will protect it from fading and keep it from being scratched!

Consider getting your windows tinted
The heat from the sun and the UV rays can cause damage to the interior of your car. UV rays can fade the upholstery. This is why you may want to bring your car to our Orlando Toyota Service Center for a window tinting! Window tinting can block 99 percent of the UV rays and it can help keep your car’s cabin cooler. You may also want to use a sunshade for your windshield when parking your car to keep out the sunlight.
Keep an eye on your car fluids
You should also check the coolant and battery fluid level in your car often during the summer. This is because the hot temperatures outside can cause these fluids to evaporate. Low fluid in your car battery can shorten its lifespan, which you want to avoid! Top off your coolant as needed!  If you’re not sure how to check these fluids, leave it to our Orlando auto service experts.
