Zappone CDJR’s Spring Road Trip Tips:

Check in on your vehicle 

  • Before leaving for your trip, we encourage you to have our service team look over your vehicle to ensure things are in proper working order. From your fluid levels, brakes, tires, and anything else that can cause an issue, it’s important to make sure you’re ready to handle any situation. 

Anticipate trouble areas & have a plan

  • It’s hard not to find yourself at the wrong place at the wrong time when it comes to traffic, we encourage you to pre-plan these trouble areas and have a plan to avoid them at all costs. Try traveling outside of rush hour times when passing through busy areas. It’ll cut back on your time inside the vehicle and won’t cause a headache! 

Have documents ready and accessible 

  • It’s always important to have your insurance cards, registration, and other important car documentation easily accessible in the event of an emergency. Keep them in the front of your glove box ready to go. 

Clean your ride before & during the trip 

  • From top to bottom, give your vehicle a little TLC cleaning. Give it a wash, vacuum and be sure to throw out any unnecessary items, wrappers, receipts, etc. You’ll regret not cleaning out your vehicle before hitting the road, trust us. 

Join a roadside assist service 

  • While we hope you won’t be needing this, having roadside assistance is a great way to stay safe if things go south during your trip. Having access to these services will save you a lot of trouble and we recommend it greatly!
