After working on cars for almost 30 years ive come to realize that one of the most under looked safety items on cars and trucks next to brakes is TIRES. A new study by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reinforces that advice by determining that vehicles driving on tires are under inflated by more than 25 percent are three times more likely to be involved in a crash related to tire problems than vehicles with proper inflation. And tires under inflated are up to 25 percent run the risk of overheating, leading to failure, and at the very least adversely affecting handling and tread life. PLEASE CHECK THE AIR IN YOUR TIRES FREQUENTLY!!!! That means at every fuel fill up!!! If you want to stay safe please get a gauge and check your tires air pressure! if you don't want to do it yourself, just go to any reputable shop or tire store and they will do it for you free of charge. If they dont want to do it, dont ever go to that shop again. I always check your pressure and examine your tires for FREE when i work on your car.. I want you and your family to be safe, This is important, please do not over look it!
