It’s summer in the Carolinas, which means more risk for car damages caused by heat waves. In this video mechanics advise Carolinians to always check their cars coolant level and tire pressure as brutal heat can cause blowouts.

People should also clean their air conditioner condenser when the AC is not working. The condenser location depends on the vehicle type, but it is usually located slightly under the car’s grill and in front of the radiator.

If your car breaks down while driving, pull off the road, turn on your hazard lights and call for help.
