Tire Maintenance

Don’t get fall into the TRAP of poor tire maintenance! T – Tread… Visually check tire tread for uneven wear. Check for signs of damage. Your tires MUST be replaced when the tread is worn to 1/16 of an inch. A good way to check the tread is by inserting a penny into the groove. If you can see Lincoln®’s entire head, its time for new treads. R – Rotate… You should rotate your tires every 6000 – 8000 miles. This is the best way to insure even wear, and to get the maximum mileage from your tire investment. A – Alingment…Have your alignment checked regularly.
Also check the balance of your tires. If your alignment and tire balance are off, you will experience irregular wear and the result will be premature need for replacement. P – Pressure… The proper air pressure for your vehicle is always specified in your owner’s manual. Under inflation is the biggest cause of tire failure. Always check your tire pressure between Summer and Fall, because a 10 degree drop in temperature corresponds to a 1 or 2 pound drop in tire pressure.

A Pollen Filter that is dirty is a health concern because it exposes passengers to pollen and other airborne particulates. ALLERGIC RHINITIS: “Dr. Robert Overholt, an allergist in Knoxville, Tenn., said nasal allergies are responsible for 3.8 million lost school days and workdays every year. Many attacks of nasal rhinitis, also known as hay fever, are often misdiagnosed as a cold, Overholt said. Allergic rhinitis is one of the most common chronic diseases in the United States, affecting 10 percent to 30 percent of adults and up to 40 percent of children — or somewhere between 20 million and 40 million people.” ASTHMA is a reversible lung disease caused by the narrowing or blocking of the lung’s airways, often as a response to various triggers. Asthma triggers vary from person to person, but may include cigarette and other smoke, mold, pollens, dust, animal dander, exercise, cold air, household and industrial products, air pollutants and infections. The airways of asthma sufferers are almost continuously inflamed and hyperactive, but these and other kinds of triggers can lead to spasms in the lungs, causing asthma attacks. Asthma symptoms include coughing, wheezing and shortness of breath, and can be life-threatening if not properly managed. Springtime is the peak Pollen season.
