To help ensure that drivers and their vehicles are ready for the busy summer travel season, AAA is offering free vehicle maintenance inspections on Saturday, May 18 at the Department of Transportation Commuter Lot near Buckland Street and Pleasant Valley Road in Manchester.  The event runs from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and is open to AAA members and nonmembers alike.

“Many travelers overlook the possibility of car trouble or breaking down on the side of the road before leaving for a trip,” said AAA Public Affairs Manager Aaron Kupec. “However, taking 30 minutes to prepare a vehicle can help drivers avoid breakdowns and other car problems that can interrupt a road trip.”

AAA’s Roadside Rescue Team will be checking the following items to help ensure hassle-free summer travel:

·         Batteries: Car battery terminals should be secure and free of corrosion.
·         Tires: Proper tire pressure and tread help provide traction and avoid dangerous blow-outs.
·         Wiper Blades: To ensure optimum visibility, replace your wiper blades every six months.
·         Fluid Levels: At each refueling, check fluid levels, including window washer fluid. Check your car’s oil level and change oil as recommended in the owner’s manual.
·         Lights: Keeping headlights, tail lights and signal lights clear of dirt and debris can prevent them from becoming too dim to be seen by other drivers.

AAA will also be distributing its new Know Before You Go guide. The one-page guide, compiled from AAA’s Digest of Motor Laws, provides traffic law information for popular drive destinations compared to Connecticut laws.

I signed into my Amazon account, and found the following message:

If you own a Kindle Fire, you’ll find a little unexpected something in your account right now — 500 Amazon Coins, worth $5. You can use the coins to buy apps and games, as well as items inside apps and games. And if you want to purchase additional coins for yourself or your family, you get to do so at a discount.

I own an old school Kindle, so I can use this, but I hope some of you can!
