Spring Cleaning for your Vehicle

Over the next few weeks, we'll be posting Art Harding's "Top Five"
suggestions for Spring Cleaning your vehicle-- We hope you find them
helpful!



1. Check Your Fluids

Get this one out of the way first. Did you use a lot of washer fluid this
season? And how is your oil level? To check these levels, go under the
hood when the vehicle’s engine is off and cool, and when your vehicle is
parked on level ground. For the oil, remove the oil dipstick and wipe it
off with a rag. You’ll see markings for “full” or “add”. Reinsert the
dipstick and remove it again and read the level. Make sure you don’t
overfill either the oil or the washer fluid.

Chrysler to Present Hybrid Van Model




Chrysler Corp has set out to test 4 Hybrid models one of which will be the popular Town & Country model. 

The WindsorStar writes:

Chrysler is investing $15.8 million into the project and the U.S. Department of Energy is contributing $10 million.

Only 25 test vehicles will be created, according to Abdullah A. Bazzi, senior manager of electrified powertrain programs for Chrysler Group.

"This Town and Country minivan is the only minivan to boast a plug-in hybrid powertrain in combination with flex fuel capability," Bazzi said. "We're pleased to have four of these 25 vehicles being tested right here in Chrysler's backyard where they can get real-world use and be evaluated promptly."

Auburn Hills will use the Chrysler-owned vehicles for testing purposes to evaluate everyday city and highway driving. Staff selected to evaluate the vehicles will regularly report all driving and charging experiences back to Chrysler.
