New drivers have a lot to learn about their cars, like how to open the hood to check the oil. Each year we see students’ cars with serious problems simply due to a lack of knowledge about maintenance. This class will introduce basic car workings and the needed maintenance to keep it reliable and safe. Our own Truckee High School graduate, Gary Gunter, will review the various dashboard warning lights and what they mean.
Students will pop the hood and identify the correct areas to check or add oil, washer fluid and coolant. Learning to check basic items such as tire pressure and tread will be reviewed. We will also run through safety on the roadway in an emergency situation. Don’t Blow Up Your Car is imperative for teen drivers to learn about vital car maintenance that will keep them safer out on the road.
