Some customers have asked recently,
“I just drove through a bad dust storm. Are there any mechanical issues I should look for?”
This is a great question for us at SMC Auto Repair Mesa, and boy do we have an answer for you. If you were wondering if you should have your car serviced after a major dust storm, the answer is yes. Here are some helpful tips to keep your car in excellent shape. We can provide these services for you also.
1) Check your air filter, and replace it if it is clogged or dirty.
2) Make sure there is no dirt surrounding your gas cap, as this could enter the fuel system, causing contamination.
3) Other large particles, or material blown under your car from the road, can get stuck in or around exhaust, causing major issues or fires.
4)Have the engine oil changed, and inspect all air induction components for dust clogs.
