As Holy Week approaches, Filipinos are no doubt planning a memorable road trip with their family or friends. This period of relaxation and reflection is best enjoyed with a peaceful and stress-free drive to the destination. As such, it’s important to ensure your vehicle is ready to embark on this journey.
Chances are, your planned destination involves some substantial driving. Before heading out, it's crucial to conduct comprehensive research on your route, consider possible traffic hotspots and rest stops. Additionally, ensure your RFID sticker is in working order for seamless and secure transactions during toll payments, promising a more convenient travel experience. Don't forget to securely attach your RFID sticker and don’t tailgate when at the tollgate to avoid non-detection.
Check your car’s fluids
Road trips require the car’s engine to run for hours at a time, often hauling a full load. So careful preparation is key to avoiding trouble. Prevent overheating on the road by using Prestone Car-Specific Coolant for superior protection. This convenient, high-quality, prediluted coolant is ideal for emergency refills and is equipped with Prestone Cor-Guard Anti-Corrosion technology, offering 5X more effective corrosion protection.
For added safety, equip your ride with a powerful brake fluid like Prestone Brake Fluid DOT 3. Formulated for safe, dependable, and consistent performance in the hydraulic brake system, it helps protect your brakes against overheating, brake fade, and performance decline.
Use genuine car care products
You can’t expect the same reliability and protection from a subpar or counterfeit fluid. Here are ways to spot counterfeit products and avoid potential problems down the road.
First, check the packaging. Counterfeit products often mimic the appearance of the genuine item. Check the text on the label for spelling errors. Check the text on the bottle cap and foil for the size and spacing in between the letters. Misaligned or widely spaced letters are a dead giveaway that it’s a fake product.
Be mindful of the price. Significantly cheaper products are likely fake compared to genuine Prestone products. If they are marketed as discounts, double-check if Prestone is having a promotional sale. If not, it's probably fake.
Where are you buying it from? Purchase only from official Prestone partner stores like Blade, Ace, Handyman, TrueValue and auto-supply shops nationwide.
These reminders not only save potential costs but also save lives. Only use genuine Prestone products.
