With the new year come many new resolutions! Why not make one of those resolutions to refresh your defensive driving know-how? Your safety and the safety of all of your passengers are imperative and while you’ve probably been driving for years, it’s never a bad idea to practice your defensive driving! So, take a look at our tips below, and be sure to sharpen your driving skills this January! Oh and if you’re in the market for a new Kia with all of the latest safety features, browse our available inventory online!
King Kia Of Laurel’s Defensive Driving Tips:
- Always plan for delays in your journey. As pessimistic as it sounds, never trust other drivers. They get into accidents and forget how to drive all the time. If you plan for delays, the best outcomes are that you either arrive at your destination early, or if you hit traffic you won’t be late. Win-win!
- Focus on safety. When you’re thinking the most about being safe and driving the way you’re supposed to, you’ll drive more responsibly. So, put down that cell phone!
- If you begin your journey stressed, it’s just going to get worse with every little thing that happens on the way. Listen to soothing music or talk radio, take deep breaths, and remember that you are not in the car forever!
- Addicted to the horn? Time to wean yourself off. Using your horn makes you angry and it makes everyone else around you angry, and then you have a Dangerous Driving Situation on your hands. That is never good.
- If you come across another driver who is road raging, stay as far away from them as possible. Let them pass you, don’t cut them off, just let them leave you the heck alone. It’s for the best!

Winter has officially arrived, and though a white Christmas may have eluded us, we’re facing earlier sunsets and increasingly perilous road conditions. In Laurel, MD, the sun seems to set as early as 4 pm, prompting many in our community to navigate the roads in the dark. Given these circumstances, the condition of your vehicle’s headlights is more crucial than ever. Recognizing the importance of safe driving this December, King Kia of Laurel, MD has put together a comprehensive DIY guide on changing your headlights. Explore the guide below, and if the task seems more challenging than anticipated, don’t hesitate to schedule a service appointment at our Kia Service Center for professional assistance!
King Kia Of Laurel’s Guide To Replacing A Headlight:
- Open your hood and use the provided prop stand or another sturdy object to keep it securely open.
- Disconnect the power connector from the rear of the headlight. You may need to gently turn or jiggle it to loosen.
- Remove the dust cover from the back of the headlight, twisting it if necessary to release.
- For some vehicles, there might be a clip securing the bulb in place. Depress the clip to release the light bulb.
- Grasp the bulb housing and gently pull it out. Be cautious and wiggle it if needed, avoiding pulling on the glass or using excessive force to prevent breakage and potential injury.
- Compare the old and new bulbs by their housings to ensure they match.
- To ensure the bulb is free from dust and fingerprints, use a pre-moistened alcohol wipe or rubbing alcohol on a dust-free cloth to gently wipe it.
- Align the bulb housing with the open socket and carefully insert it, ensuring a secure fit.
- Slide the bulb back into place and twist if required to lock it securely.
- If your vehicle has a clip, reattach it, and then replace the dust cover and power connector.
- Turn on your headlights to confirm that the bulb and connection are functioning properly.
- Close the hood securely and give yourself a well-deserved round of applause!

Congratulations on your effort and savings to secure the perfect new Kia! After all the hard work, it’s natural to feel a bit overwhelmed about the next steps, especially if it’s your first car purchase. But fear not, King Kia of Laurel has created a comprehensive checklist to ensure you have everything you need to drive your dream car off the lot! If you haven’t found your ideal car yet, we’re here to assist. Explore our remarkable inventory and schedule a test drive at King Kia of Laurel today!
Your New Car Purchasing Checklist:
Your Driver’s License
- May seem obvious, but still needs to be addressed. The dealership needs to be sure you’re legally licensed to operate a vehicle before you get behind the wheel. Plus, you’ll need proof of residence for a car loan too.
Proof Of Insurance
- Insurance is required in most states and it’s more than likely that the dealership you’re purchasing from will require proof of insurance. Save some time by contacting your insurance company beforehand!
A Valid Form Of Payment
- It’s always a good idea to contact the dealership’s finance department to see what type of payment options they accept and what types of financial documents they may require. Oh and be sure to ask about pre-approved financing options!
Recent Pay Stubs And Utility Bills
- Bringing a couple of your most recent paystubs will make it much easier to get a car loan through the dealership if need be. A copy of your last utility bill with your account number on it will help prove residency if the address on your license does not match your current residency.
Credit Score And History
- While the dealership will be able to pull up your credit score and history, you should be aware of your score and have your own proof on hand just in case.
Discount Information
- Check with your Credit Card Company, the Dealership, or the manufacturer for any discounts that may be applicable to your purchase and have them ready to present at the dealership. You don’t want to miss out on a deal!
