SERVICE MY CAR SHARES KEY VEHICLE CHECKS FOR UAE DRIVERS AS SUMMER DRAWS TO A CLOSE

UAE motorists are advised to check key vehicle components for signs of heat-related wear as temperatures begin to ease

DUBAI, DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES, September 8, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Service My Car, the UAE’s leading digital car service platform powered by Bahwan International Group, is advising motorists to carry out a number of essential vehicle checks as temperatures begin to ease following the summer months, helping to identify signs of wear and ensure their cars remain in good condition for the season ahead.

Extended periods of higher temperatures can affect several vehicle components, from batteries and tyres to air-conditioning and cooling systems. While some signs of wear may be immediately noticeable, others can develop gradually, making the end of summer an important time for motorists to assess the overall condition of their vehicles.
“Summer conditions can place additional demands on a vehicle, particularly when it comes to components such as the battery, tyres and air-conditioning system,” said Mr. Prem Anandkumar N, Business Head at Service My Car. “Taking the time to carry out a few simple checks can help motorists identify potential issues early, maintain their vehicle’s performance and reduce the likelihood or unexpected problems later.”

Service My Car recommends that UAE motorists pay particular attention to the following areas:
Battery: Higher temperatures can accelerate battery deterioration and affect its lifespan. Drivers should check the condition of their battery, particularly if they notice slower engine starts or other signs of reduced performance.
Tyres: Drivers should check tyre pressure and tread depth and look for cracks, bulges or uneven wear. Maintaining the correct tyre pressure is particularly important for safety, handling and overall vehicle performance.
Air conditioning: Following months of regular use, the air-conditioning system should be checked to ensure it continues to cool effectively and provide adequate airflow. The cabin air filter should also be inspected and replaced if necessary.

Coolant and fluids: Coolant levels and condition should be checked, together with engine oil, brake fluid and other essential fluids. Motorists should also look for signs of leaks that could indicate a developing issue.

Brakes: Any unusual noises, vibration or reduction in braking performance should be investigated. Brake pads, discs and fluid should be inspected to ensure the braking system remains in good condition.
Wipers and lights: Exposure to heat and sunlight can affect rubber components such as wiper blades over time. Drivers should check that their wipers remain effective and ensure all exterior lights are functioning correctly to maintain good visibility.

In addition to these individual checks, Service My Car recommends an overall vehicle inspection at the end of the summer period. A general inspection can help identify developing maintenance requirements before they become more significant, particularly for motorists planning longer journeys or road trips as the weather becomes more favourable for driving and outdoor activities.

“Preventive maintenance can make a significant difference to the reliability and longevity of a vehicle,” added Mr. Prem. “A post-summer inspection provides an opportunity to address any areas that may require attention and gives motorists greater confidence that their vehicle is prepared for the season ahead.”
Service My Car provides UAE motorists with access to vehicle servicing, repairs and inspections through its digital automotive platform. The service includes vehicle collection and delivery, allowing customers to arrange their vehicle maintenance requirements without the need to coordinate workshop visits themselves.
