More than 100 vehicles were inspected Sunday, October 7 during the first-ever consumer vehicle check-up event by the Car Care Council in conjunction with the Northwood University International Auto Show in Midland, MI.
In celebration of October Fall Car Care Month, the council sponsored the event, which was held in the parking lot of H.H. Dow High School and provided free vehicle check-ups for consumers by professional automotive technicians from Belle Tire and automotive technology students from Delta Community College. Teams inspected 41 different items on each vehicle including lights, fluid levels, belts, hoses, tires, filters, battery, and other systems and components.
A number of booths set up along the vehicle check-up event lanes featured educational and product demonstrations. The Midland Police department was on-hand to inspect and teach proper child safety seat installation, while Northwood University student volunteers assisted with consumer orientations, gift bag giveaways, and other activities. |
