Our team here at Keyes Hyundai of Mission Hills is constantly striving to help you make the most of your vehicle, whether it's a new Hyundai or an older model. That's why we want to tell you more about the dangers of not driving your vehicle for an extended period. It's also important to maintain a routine service schedule, which is where the expert technicians in our Hyundai Service Center come into play.
Drive Your Vehicle Regularly
Vehicles are meant to be driven regularly to ensure that various parts don't prematurely age and cause you future issues. Even if you only take it for a short drive, it's essential to start and drive your car periodically and make the inner workings move and operate. Here are some of the potential problems you could face by not driving your vehicle often enough:
- Fuel Pump: Your fuel pump is crucial, and not driving enough can cause this component to deteriorate over time, preventing the vehicle from functioning.
- Car Fluids: Like liquids you'd consume, car fluids can go bad in time as well. Fluids like antifreeze, oil, and others could go bad if they do not run through the proper parts.
- Battery: After sitting for too long and lacking currents, your vehicle's battery could go bad, which would prevent you from being able to start your car.
