Routine maintenance keeps your fleet trucks safe on the road and protects you against unplanned trips to your local automotive shop! One thing a lot of people forget about is to have their coolant flushed. Ekart Automotive in Manhattan, KS will help you make sure your fleet vehicle is properly flushed every time!

Maintaining commercial vehicles isn’t easy. They work hard, rack up miles, and are a lifeline for your business, every day. While having them regularly maintenance seems inconvenient, it’ll save you a lot of time and money in both the short and the long run. The key is to be smart about when to take your truck in for servicing.

If your fleet trucks travel to cold areas, it’s important your cooling system is ready for what lies ahead. The last thing you need is a truck or other vehicle overheating first thing in the morning, or an entire engine being ruined overnight by freezing temperatures. The perfect time of year to ensure that doesn’t happen, by having your coolant flushed before the weather temperatures start to drop.

Coolant flushes need to be regularly done regardless, so you might as well do it before winter. This ensures your cooling system is clean of any debris and has the right uncontaminated coolant ratio in the system to prevent catastrophic failures associated with freezing fluid. Plus, your heater will work better after a good flush. It’s a win on all fronts.

A coolant flush also gives your technician a chance to inspect your coolant, and check for signs of the head gasket, head, or intake issues. A coolant flush rids your system of debris, ensures it won’t freeze, and keeps your truck reliably on the road.
