      How weather affects Auto Repair

      Do you plan to take your vehicle to a place like Calipatria, CA with prolonged heat/cold or humidity in the next 3 months? Please consider the following impact on your vehicle:

      Heat is generated very quickly due to the friction between the brake pads and the brake rotors, so the brake system will remain warm long after the vehicle has been parked in Calipatria, CA. Heavy braking can overheat the brakes, leading you to experience brake fade that reduces the efficiency of the brakes and lengthens the distance your vehicle comes to a complete halt. When engine oil is thinner due to heat, there is increased risk of leaks occurring. Additionally, higher temperatures as in{' '} Calipatria, CA can lead to insufficient lubrication, resulting in sludge formation. oil flow might be lowered and can impede your vehicle's overall performance.

      Unusual Smells (Burning, Gas, Sweet)

      Cause: A burning smell may indicate overheated components or leaking oil; a gas smell could signify a fuel leak, while a sweet odor might suggest coolant leaks.
