Pedata RV Center recommends that recreational vehicle owners schedule preventive maintenance for their RV this fall. Completing basic preventive maintenance prior to the onset of the colder weather of winter will greatly decrease the chances of surprise repairs and/or breakdowns on the road that can be more dangerous during the winter months.

Verify that the following Basic RV Maintenance has been completed this Fall:

1. Check/change engine oil and filter.

2. Complete an engine tune-up.

3. Check the fuel filter.

4. Check transmission fluid and filter.

5. Check all fluid levels and replenish as necessary.

6. Lubrication of the chassis as necessary.

7. Check the suspension system.

8. Check the tires (don’t forget the spare).

Gerard Pedata of Pedata RV Center said, “Always check your owner’s manual for specific recommendations for your vehicle. Even the most basic problems can have an effect. For instance, a fouled spark plug can reduce fuel efficiency by as much as 30%.”
