Stay cool with a Summer Safety Check


Breeze through summer

When you plan your summer adventures this year, have you thought about your vehicle as well was your packing?

 

Vauxhall has the answer, a Summer Safety Check and pollen filter change for just £35.

Our Vauxhall trained technicians will check that your car is topped up with vital fluids to the correct levels on radiator coolant, preventing overheating, brake fluid and component condition to ensure that in the ambient heat and humidity during your journey your car performs efficiently, and that your wiper blades are in a good condition to discard the flies and bugs from your windscreen.

We also include a visual safety inspection of your Vauxhall covering wheels and tyres, exhaust and steering, and much more, leaving nothing to chance.

Whenever you drive your car, and especially during spring and summer, contaminants such as pollen, dust, fungus spores, ozone, and other airborne pollutants, enter your car's cabin through the air conditioning or ventilation system.

Most new Vauxhalls however, are fitted with an active carbon cabin filter, which removes still smaller particles. Furthermore, due to an extra layer of activated carbon, it also removes nasty odours and harmful gases such as exhaust fumes and ozone.
