Beware of Potholes | Maple Street Auto Repair

Tracy’s Automotive on Maple Street will fix your car after it falls into a pothole.

Now that winter is drifting away and spring is making its warmer days felt, drivers have a lot to look forward to. While much of it is good, not all is joyful. Take roads, for example. Now’s the time when potholes seem to appear everywhere.

“Wintry weather patterns, like the frequent freezing and thawing of water under the pavement, often lead to cracking of a road’s surface. As a constant stream of vehicles crosses over these cracks, small debris can break away from the pavement and, ultimately, result in a pothole,” bearingstar.com explains.

Hit one and you could damage your car. That damage, AAA says, could include your tires, wheels, suspension, shocks, your car’s body, or other components.

AAA offers these four tips for dealing with potholes:

  • “Actively scan the road ahead, and drive around any potholes in your path.Avoid driving through standing water whenever possible.
  • “A pothole could be hiding beneath the surface.
  • “If you can’t avoid a pothole, safely reduce speed as much as possible and avoid hard braking.
  • “Pay attention to new or unusual noises or vibrations after hitting a pothole, and take your vehicle to a trusted repair shop as soon as possible.”
