Summer is winding down, and September is on its way! That means that we are getting ready to enter hurricane season, and even though we won’t be too affected up here in Laurel, MD doesn’t mean we won’t be getting some heavy rains as a result. So this week we want to help ensure that our customers stay safe on the road in all conditions. Below you will find tips and tricks for safely driving through heavy storms/ flooding. And if you find that your vehicle needs repairs or even just a tune-up, let our team help you gain better peace of mind behind the wheel! Just schedule a service appointment and stop into King Kia of Laurel today! King Kia Of Laurel’s Tips For Driving In The Rain: Driving in heavy rain: Turn your headlights on – the Highway Code says you must use them when visibility is seriously reduced Use fog lights if you like, but switch them off when visibility improves. Leave twice as much space between you and the car in front – it takes longer to stop in the wet. If your steering feels light due to hydroplaning, ease off the accelerator and slow down gradually. If you break down don't prop the bonnet open while you wait. Rain-soaked electrics can make it harder to start the engine. Driving during floods and standing water: Try to avoid standing water if you can. Don't drive into flood water that’s moving or more than 4 inches deep. Let approaching cars pass first if you are unsure of the depth Drive slowly and steadily so you don’t make a bow wave. Test your brakes as soon as you can afterward. Water can have a damaging effect on brakes, make sure they are working properly before you continue to drive Fast-moving water is very powerful: if strong enough your car could be swept away. Find an alternate route if the water is moving too fast to pass-through Watch out for: Look out for slip and trip hazards like curbs under the water. Manhole covers can get lifted and moved. Water levels can change quickly.

We all know what it’s like to get into your car on a hot summer day and have the seat scorch your butt or the white-hot seat belt buckle feel like a brand! Let King Kia of Laurel keep your car cool as a cucumber with our compiled tips below! But really the best way to battle high summer temperatures is to blast your vehicle's AC! Make sure your vehicle can beat the heat by having your Air Conditioning System serviced at our Kia Service Center! Schedule your service appointment today and enjoy every ride this summer! King Kia Of Laurels Tips To Keep Your Ride Cool: Use a sunshade or window visor. This is a great go-to method for drivers who are hoping to counteract the hot interior temperatures throughout the summer season. We recommend placing your sunshade or window visor each time you exit your vehicle for more than a few minutes. If you’re looking for a pro tip, put a sunshade on your rear windshield as well! Use a dash cover. Using a dash cover can make a big difference in making your vehicle’s interior more comfortable during hot temperatures. Dash covers will help you from touching hot vinyl surfaces and will also protect sensitive vinyl from any sun damage which can cause cracking and fading. Cover your steering wheel with a hand towel. Even when you use a sunshade, your steering wheel can still get very hot. Our recommendation is to place a small towel over your steering wheel. This will help keep your hands from burning when in contact with the steering wheel. Park in a shady area. When and if possible, park in shady areas. And if you’re going to be outside of your vehicle for an extended period of time, it’s worth a farther walk if you are able to park in the shade. You’ll be much happier that you parked farther away in the shade after your day out! Keep your possessions out of the sun. Keep any and all possessions, delicate or not, out of direct sunlight. Try storing your items underneath your seat or in a glove box. You can also throw a blanket over your possessions for extra measures. If you can’t find a place in your car that will conceal heat-sensitive goods, consider placing them in the trunk.

As the warmer weather sets in and June approaches, it's the perfect time to prepare for those summer road trips. Before you hit the open road, bring your vehicle to King Kia of Laurel for a thorough check-up. If you can't recall the last time your car was serviced, it's likely due for some attention.

Winter weather puts a lot of wear and tear on our roads, a fact we're all reminded of when navigating the jarring, uneven surfaces come spring. While all irregularities in the road can be disruptive, potholes pose a more severe road hazard. These nuisances typically develop due to the freeze-thaw cycle affecting groundwater beneath the pavement. Water enters cracks, freezes, and expands during winter, then melts, creating spaces that allow more water to penetrate, repeating the cycle and gradually compromising the road's structural integrity. This process eventually causes the pavement to break apart, forming potholes of various sizes. Although drivers tend to steer clear of larger potholes, it’s important to understand that all potholes can be dangerous. King Kia of Laurel wants to emphasize the risk they pose to drivers and vehicles alike in this week’s blog. To assess potential damage from recent rough drives, consider scheduling a service appointment at King Kia of Laurel’s service center, where our certified professionals will ensure your vehicle is road-ready for safe driving. The Effects Of Potholes On Your Car: Tire Damage: Potholes can cause immediate tire blowouts or slower leaks. The sharp edges of a pothole compress the tire against the wheel rim, which can slice the rubber or break the seal between the tire and the rim. Wheel Damage: The impact with a pothole can bend, crack, or chip the wheels, especially those made of alloy. Damaged wheels can lead to poor handling and can cause the tire to lose air more rapidly. Suspension Damage: The suspension system, designed to absorb shocks, can be significantly affected by potholes. Components like shock absorbers, struts, and control arms can be damaged, leading to a rougher ride and decreased steering precision. Alignment Issues: Hitting a pothole can knock a car's wheels out of alignment, leading to uneven tire wear and affecting the steering capabilities of the vehicle. Misalignment can also put stress on other vehicle components, increasing overall wear and tear. Exhaust System Damage: For vehicles that are lower to the ground, striking a deep pothole can cause the undercarriage to scrape against the ground, potentially damaging the exhaust system. This can lead to exhaust leaks, which are harmful both to the environment and the vehicle's efficiency.
