Your Franklin Used Car Dealer Makes Sure To Keep You Safe with These Top 10 ItemsNo matter how well you care for your car, there are some things Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Franklin Pre-Owned Car and Truck owners can never quite prevent.
By: Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Franklin For example, the Jeep Roadside Safety Kit by Mopar, has many vital pieces of equipment that will help you out of an emergency situation. Items that are included in the Jeep Roadside Safety Kit are: Safety Flashlight, Safety Triangle, Fleece Blanket, Gloves, 6 Gauge Jumper Cables, 2 Bungee Cords, Screw Drivers Flat & Phillips, Pliers, and a Carrying Case retailing at $110. If you don’t want to spring for a pre-packed emergency kit, area Norman Used Car drivers need to be sure you have the following individual items in your car at all time. Flashlight – A battery operated or hand crank-powered flashlight is crucial. Even better, be prepared with a multitasking flashlight that also has a weather radio, flashing hazard lights, alert sirens, glass breaking hammer tips, seatbelt cutters and can charge a cell phone. Even you just have a basic flashlight, be sure to always carry extra batteries. Jumper cables or a portable charging box – A dead battery is one of the main reasons Used Truck drivers find themselves stuck on the side of the road. Jumper cables are the most portable of the two options, but a portable jumper box eliminates the need to have another vehicle charge your dead battery. Spare tire – Your car tire set is not complete unless you’ve also got your spare tire. Be sure it’s inflated and that you know how to access it in the event that you need it. After using your spare, don’t wait to replace it. Jack, lug wrench and lug key- In order to change a tire, you’ll need a jack. Be sure you carry one that fits your vehicle. Learn how to use it safely. To change a tire, you’ll also need a lug wrench. If your tires have locked lug nuts, be sure you keep the key to the lock in your car at all times, or on your key chain. Gas can – A small, empty gas container can make all the difference should Truck owners in Oklahoma ever run out of gas. Never keep a gas can with gas in your vehicle as static electricity could ignite the fumes. Duct tape – Duct tape is just one of those things you should never be without. If you’ve got a cracked belt or hose, you can temporarily patch it with duct tape. The tape should hold long enough for you to get your car to the nearest auto repair shop. Tow Rope – There may be times when you don’t have access to a towing service, but have a friend or friendly stranger who are able to tow your car for you. Keep a tow rope stashed in your car just in case. First aid kit – Injuries happen, even on the road. Always be prepared with a fully stocked first aid kid. Band-aids, antiseptic and burn cream are must haves. Be sure to regularly restock your first aid kit, and keep an eye on the expiration date of items in the kit. If you ever experience anything other than a minor injury while on the road or stranded on the side of the road, call 911 for emergency help. Food and water – It’s better to be prepared for the unthinkable than to find yourself unprepared. Stranded motorists are not uncommon. Should you ever become stranded on a country road or are unable to receive immediate roadside assistance, be prepared with food and water. Stock a few high-calorie snack bars and bottles of purified water in your emergency kit. If you have babies or small children keep in mind any food they may need as well. Cell phone – The majority of Used Car drivers never leave home without their cell phone, but it can never hurt to remind you to always have your cell phone with you while on the road. Be sure you’ve also got a car charger. As previously mentioned, there are some multi-function flashlights that will charge a dead cell phone in an emergency event. Keep a card in your glove compartment with emergency numbers, including AAA or your roadside assistance program. If you find yourself stranded and don’t have anyone to call, don’t hesitate to call 911. Always err on the side of caution. Don’t attempt to change a tire or repair your car on the side of a busy highway or at night without proper lighting. If the weather isn’t dangerous, get all passengers out of the stranded vehicle and wait for help away from the road.
