The Two Silent Killers of Your Car This Summer

Most drivers worry about their car battery in the dead of winter, but here’s a professional secret: Heat kills more batteries than cold does. Combined with a cooling system that’s working at its absolute limit, July is the most dangerous month for your engine’s health.

Why Your Car Struggles in July:

• Battery Evaporation: High temperatures accelerate the chemical reaction inside your battery, leading to internal corrosion and fluid evaporation. You won't know it's dying until the day your car won't start in a grocery store parking lot.
• Coolant Breakdown: Over time, coolant becomes acidic and loses its ability to protect your engine from rust and overheating. A "Summer Survival" flush ensures your engine stays at a safe operating temperature, even when idling in the sun.

Signs Your Car is Losing the Battle with Heat:

• The temperature gauge is creeping higher than usual.
• Your engine stays on (cooling fan running loud) long after you’ve parked.
• Your car is slow to crank when you start it up.

From July 1st to August 1st, Paramount Auto Service is offering the Summer Survival Bundle for just $149.99. This flat-rate package includes a professional Coolant Flush and a Battery Health Test. It’s the most affordable way to ensure you aren't the one stranded on the side of the road this summer. Visit us at our Woodbury East, Woodbury West or Hastings location today!
