April has rolled in, the Florida sunshine is turning up, and you know what that means—National Car Care Month is officially here! While you’re decluttering closets and power-washing patios, don’t forget about the MVP that gets you to work, weekend getaways, and everywhere in between: your Kia.
As your trusted Kia service center in Lake Wales, we’re all about keeping your ride as fresh, clean, and road-trip-ready as possible. So we’ve rounded up some fun and practical spring car care tips to help you show your vehicle a little TLC—just in time for your next adventure.
1. Give Your Kia a Fresh Start—Inside and Out
Spring cleaning starts with saying goodbye to winter clutter (and those rogue fries under the seat). Start by:
- Tossing out leftover winter gear, receipts, and any trash
- Vacuuming seats, floors, and tight spaces around the console
- Wiping down all surfaces with interior cleaner or disinfectant wipes
- Spraying the trunk and giving it the same attention—because yes, it matters!
Pro Tip: Got leather seats? Treat them to a little luxury with a leather conditioner to keep them smooth and crack-free in the Florida heat.
2. Wash Off Winter (and Look Good Doing It)
Even Florida cars collect grime. Give your Kia a thorough wash to remove road debris, salt, and pollen, then add a coat of wax to protect the paint from harsh UV rays. Bonus points for an undercarriage rinse—you’ll thank yourself later when rust stays far, far away.
3. Pop the Hood
Don’t worry, we’re not asking you to rebuild the engine. Just open the hood (when cool), check for leaks, cracks, or anything that looks “off,” and top off essential fluids like:
- Engine oil
- Coolant
- Brake fluid
- Windshield washer fluid
- Power steering fluid
Not sure what to look for? Bring it by Dyer Kia Lake Wales Service—we’ll check everything for you.
4. Tires Need Love Too
Tires are your Kia’s only contact with the road, so they deserve some springtime attention.
- Check your tire pressure and match it to your recommended PSI (check your door sticker or tire wall if aftermarket)
- Look for signs of cracking, bald spots, or uneven wear
- Don’t forget your spare tire—it’s often the hero no one thinks about
Proper tire maintenance = better fuel efficiency, smoother rides, and longer tire life.
