Una cosa acerca de los autom\u00f3viles nunca ha cambiado a lo largo de los a\u00f1os: est\u00e1n dise\u00f1ados para ser conducidos. Pero si tiene un veh\u00edculo que no conduce con frecuencia porque es un autom\u00f3vil secundario o uno que simplemente ya no necesita usar tanto, podr\u00edan surgir ciertos problemas mientras est\u00e1 parado. A continuaci\u00f3n, los profesionales experimentados de Altra Insurance Services, un proveedor l\u00edder de <\/span>seguro de auto San Diego<\/span><\/a>\u00a0conductores en los que conf\u00edan para obtener una cobertura asequible y un servicio de primer nivel, ofrece algunos consejos sobre lo que puede hacer para mantener un autom\u00f3vil que se conduce con poca frecuencia.<\/span><\/p>\n

Utilice una oferta de bater\u00eda<\/h2>\n

Si su autom\u00f3vil no se usa durante per\u00edodos prolongados, la bater\u00eda perder\u00e1 su carga y, eventualmente, ser\u00e1 necesario arrancarla para que funcione. Una forma de mantener la bater\u00eda de su autom\u00f3vil durante los per\u00edodos de inactividad es con un cargador de bater\u00eda o un auxiliar. Este es un dispositivo que mantiene la carga en su bater\u00eda para mantenerla lista para usar.<\/span><\/p>\n

Debido a que los neum\u00e1ticos son ligeramente porosos, pueden volverse m\u00e1s planos cuando no se conduce el autom\u00f3vil. Evite la posibilidad de ser sorprendido por llantas desinfladas o desniveladas revisando peri\u00f3dicamente la presi\u00f3n de sus llantas con un man\u00f3metro para llantas. Mire dentro de la jamba de la puerta del lado del conductor para ver qu\u00e9 presi\u00f3n de llanta se recomienda.<\/span><\/p>\n

Revise sus frenos en busca de \u00f3xido<\/h2>\n

Los frenos de su autom\u00f3vil pueden oxidarse si su veh\u00edculo se encuentra afuera o en un garaje donde el clima no est\u00e1 bien controlado. Esto puede suceder cuando hay exceso de humedad en el aire. Si se forma una capa de \u00f3xido en los rotores de los frenos, es f\u00e1cil eliminarla con una soluci\u00f3n que disuelva y elimine el \u00f3xido. Revise regularmente los frenos de su autom\u00f3vil para detectar signos de oxidaci\u00f3n. De lo contrario, podr\u00eda sorprenderse con sonidos fuertes o persistentes la pr\u00f3xima vez que use su veh\u00edculo.<\/span><\/p>\n

Use un estabilizador de combustible<\/h2>\n

El combustible se estropea. Es posible que haya experimentado esto cuando encendi\u00f3 una cortadora de c\u00e9sped en la primavera por primera vez si conten\u00eda gasolina sobrante del oto\u00f1o. A medida que el combustible envejece, se volver\u00e1 lo suficientemente espeso como para pegar muchas de las partes internas de su autom\u00f3vil. Para los momentos en que su autom\u00f3vil no se use, agregue estabilizador de combustible al tanque para mantener el combustible en su estado original.<\/span><\/p>\n

Cubra su autom\u00f3vil cuando no lo est\u00e9 conduciendo<\/h2>\n

Un autom\u00f3vil sin usar puede, como m\u00ednimo, acumular polvo si est\u00e1 en un garaje. Sin embargo, si su autom\u00f3vil que maneja con poca frecuencia se encuentra afuera, la pintura exterior podr\u00eda verse afectada por excrementos de p\u00e1jaros, polen y cualquier otra cosa que pueda caer sobre ella. Evite la necesidad de una nueva capa de pintura antes de lo esperado cubriendo su autom\u00f3vil cuando no lo est\u00e9 conduciendo.<\/span><\/p>\n

Revise los fluidos<\/h2>\n

Si su veh\u00edculo ha estado parado por un tiempo, revise todos los fluidos clave antes de estar listo para usarlo nuevamente. Los principales incluyen: <\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>\u2022 Refrigerante<\/span>
\n<\/span>\u2022 Aceite de motor<\/span>
\n<\/span>\u2022 L\u00edquido lavadora<\/span><\/p>\n

L\u00edmpialo regularmente<\/h2>\n

Si sabe que guardar\u00e1 su autom\u00f3vil por un tiempo, l\u00edmpielo primero. Tenga especial cuidado con los restos de comida o basura sobrante que pueda haber dentro de su veh\u00edculo. Esto mantendr\u00e1 su autom\u00f3vil con un olor fresco y disuadir\u00e1 a los roedores e insectos.<\/span><\/p>\n

Enciende el auto regularmente<\/h2>\n

Incluso en los momentos en que no conducir\u00e1 su autom\u00f3vil, enci\u00e9ndalo regularmente y d\u00e9jelo funcionar brevemente. Si lo hace, har\u00e1 que los fluidos circulen y mantendr\u00e1 los componentes esenciales correctamente lubricados. Esta es tambi\u00e9n una buena manera de mantener la bater\u00eda cargada.<\/span><\/p>\n

Seguir estos consejos puede mantener su autom\u00f3vil en buen estado durante los pr\u00f3ximos a\u00f1os. Tambi\u00e9n es importante proteger su autom\u00f3vil con un seguro de autom\u00f3vil confiable, as\u00ed que comun\u00edquese con los agentes confiables de Altra Insurance Services.

But if you have a vehicle you're not driving frequently because it's a secondary car or one you simply don't need to use as much anymore, certain problems could develop as it sits. Below, the experienced professionals from Altra Insurance Services, a premier provider of auto insurance San Diego drivers trust for affordable coverage and top-notch service, offer some tips on what you can do to maintain an infrequently driven car. Use a Battery Tender If your car sits unused for long periods, the battery will lose its charge and eventually need to be jump-started in order to function. One way to maintain your car's battery during periods of non-use is with a battery charger or tender. This is a device that maintains the charge in your battery to keep it ready for use. Check Tire Pressure Because tires are slightly porous, they can become flatter when your car isn't being driven. Avoid the possibility of being surprised by uneven or deflated tires by periodically checking the pressure in your tires with a tire pressure gauge. Look inside the doorjamb on the driver\u2019s side to see what tire pressure is recommended. Check Your Brakes for Rust Your car's brakes can develop rust if your vehicle sits outside or in a garage where the climate isn't controlled well. This can happen when there's excess moisture in the air. If a layer of rust does form on your brake rotors, it's easy to remove with a solution that dissolves and removes rust. Regularly check your car's brakes for signs of rusting. Otherwise, you could be surprised by loud or persistent grinding sounds the next time you use your vehicle. Use a Fuel Stabilizer Fuel does go bad. You may have experienced this when starting a lawnmower in the spring for the first time if it contained gas left over from the fall. As fuel ages, it will become thick enough to gum up many of your car\u2019s internal parts. For times when your car is sitting unused, add fuel stabilizer to the tank to keep the fuel in its original state. Cover Your Car when It's Not Being Driven An unused car can, at the very least, gather dust if it's sitting in a garage. However, if your infrequently driven car sits outside, the exterior paint could be affected by bird droppings, pollen, and anything else that could land on it. Avoid the need for a fresh coat of paint sooner than expected by covering your car when it's not being driven. Check the Fluids If your vehicle has been sitting for a while, check all key fluids before you get ready to use it again. The main ones include: \u2022 Coolant \u2022 Engine oil \u2022 Washer fluid Clean It Regularly If you know you'll be storing your car for a while, clean it first. Be especially mindful of any food remnants or leftover trash that may be inside your vehicle. This will keep your car smelling fresh and deter rodents and insects. Regularly Turn the Car On Even for times when you won't be driving your car, regularly turn it on and let it run briefly. Doing so will get the fluids circulating and keep essential components properly lubricated. This is also a good way to keep the battery charged. Following these tips can keep your car in good shape for years to come. It\u2019s also important to protect your car with reliable auto insurance, so reach out to the trustworthy agents at Altra Insurance Services.
