As summer fades and school bells start ringing, life gets busier than ever. For parents, it means juggling school drop-offs, extracurricular activities, and early morning routines. If you’re a student, it’s about getting back into the swing of classes, sports, and social events. With so much going on, the last thing you want is a car that lets you down. At Art of Maintenance, we recommend a few essential services to keep your car in top shape. One key service is brake fluid service. Brake fluid keeps your brakes working smoothly, ensuring you can stop instantly when needed. Over time, brake fluid can lose its effectiveness or become contaminated. Scheduling this service now means fewer worries about brake performance during those hectic school runs.

Moreover, don’t forget a good tune-up. Think of it as giving your car a little back-to-school makeover. We’ll check your engine’s spark plugs, fuel filters, and ignition systems to ensure everything’s running smoothly. This can prevent unexpected issues and keep your car in great shape all year long. Another important check is your car battery. The change in weather from summer to fall can put extra strain on your battery. A quick battery check will make sure you won’t face the frustration of a dead battery during those busy mornings or late-night pickups.

At Art of Maintenance, we care about your vehicle as much as you do. Our team in Portland, Oregon, is here to help you get ready for the school season with reliable brake fluid service, thorough inspections and much more. We want you to feel confident that your car is ready for every drop-off, pickup, and everything in between.

So, as you gear up for another school year, let us handle your brake fluid service, tune-up, and battery check. We’re here to keep your car running smoothly, giving you one less thing to worry about.
