A blind-spot monitor is a system that uses radar sensors and cameras to warn you when there is an object in your blind-spot. On most cars, the system uses light in each side view mirror which stays illuminated if there is an object obstructing your path. Blind-spot monitoring is an optional feature for most manufacturers, meaning that it is not always equipped on the vehicle.

Why Use Blind-Spot Monitoring?

If your automobile doesn't respond properly during turns, it's probably oversteering or understeering. Whenever you experience either problem during every cornering situation, you must let a seasoned technician service your automobile.

Understeering can make you maneuver your vehicle off of a road because it dramatically delays the steering response time. In order to control a car that understeers, you'll have to spin your steering wheel several degrees.

Proper tire inflation has numerous benefits such as extending the life of your vehicles' tires, better gas mileage, better handling, and improved safety. A tire pressure gauge should always be used to ensure that your vehicle's tires are reading the correct pressure. Your vehicle's tire pressure should be checked regularly because it can decrease over time.

Every automobile on today's roads is equipped with some type of suspension system. This mechanical hardware is supposed to absorb forces from the ground. When a car drives over a bump or another protruding object on the highway, the chassis takes some beatings. The front and rear suspension systems should ideally minimize vibrations that ultimately reach the cabin. Struts and springs are some of the most important components of an automotive suspension system. Shock absorbers are also installed in strategic locations under the body of a car.
