What Are the Dangers of Performing Roadside Assistance Services on Your Own Car: 

Buying a car is one of the biggest financial decisions one can make in their lifetime and unless a future owner is up for the big responsibility that owning comes with, this financial decision can likely turn into a huge mistake and the consequences can be fatal if proper preventive car maintenance is not followed.
 
According to the experts, monthly preventive car maintenance is necessary not just to extend or preserve a car’s life but also to enhance its fuel efficiency and keep it in tip top condition. However, no amount of preventive maintenance can totally eradicate unfortunate events especially the ones that we have minimal to no control of, e.g. accidentally running over a sharp object that caused a flat tire, engine malfunction, or worse, getting into a vehicular accident. While DIY vehicle recovery and repair is possible, the potential road hazards that one may face make it a dangerous path to take. Oftentimes, the safest and most practical solution would be to ask for prompt response and assistance from a reputable vehicle recovery company; their reliable team will most likely come to rescue in a matter of minutes.

DIY Repairs That Should be Carried Out with Extra Caution
 
Tire Replacement
These days, more resistant, and tougher premium quality tires are now flooding in the market but no matter how durable they are made to be, oftentimes, it will only take a sharp object in a form of broken glass or nail to deflate them. In other words, these tires are still sparse. While the entire tire replacement process is easy to remember, carrying it out properly can take time which necessitates more exposure of you on the road just to prevent the tire from getting further damaged.

As we all know, the road and its potential perils can get anyone involved in an accident, including the disciplined ones. Taking into consideration the location, accessibility, and crowdedness of the road you are stuck in, if you think your situation permits a safety tire replacement experience, then proceed. Otherwise, don't risk it; call a trustworthy roadside assistance and towing company instead as they are more equipped, skilled, and knowledgeable to do the job right and well.

 
Gas Delivery Service
Modern car models feature a system that automatically alarms or notifies when the car is low on fuel.  However, let's admit it, majority of the world's population are using older model vehicles; not everyone has the luxury of the latest bells and whistles, or gadgets. Unfortunately, these old vehicles lack that low-on-fuel feature and this makes their owners susceptible to situations where they will have to refuel their gas tanks manually.

While this sounds like an easy idea that can save you from the annoying situation just as long as you have extra tanks of fuel in the trunk with you, you have to seriously note that the type of chemical you are going to deal with is an extremely hazardous and highly flammable one; a simple mishandling can be, messy, smelly or even fatal. Instead of worrying about the hazards, you need not face it alone though as there’s a handful of roadside assistance companies nowadays that offer a reliable gas delivery service wherever you may be. You'll be responded to in minutes; that makes it an offer you should not ever let pass.

 
Vehicle Jumpstarting
Ruined or interrupted road trips via a dead battery is a common scenario.  This dreaded situation usually takes place in the middle of a deserted road with no auto shops or assistance nearby to help you. Such tough times may necessitate for a DIY vehicle battery jumpstart service but before you even begin, make sure you know the dangers that you will be dealing with, e.g. damaged battery and engine because cables were not attached on the right ends, or worse, any sparks can ignite from fluids.
 
To jumpstart a dead battery is a dangerous activity that can put you in danger if you lack proper knowledge or experience. There are also ABCs that you have to set in mind, e.g. booster cables have to be connected in proper order, positive cables have to be linked to the positive terminals, and so on and so forth. Unless you are confident to carry out such a risky job, calling the experts in the field like a reputable tow truck and road assistance company is still the right decision to make.
 
You Might Need a Tow
Some unfortunate road events may necessitate a towing service for your car. Especially if you have your loved ones on board, the best thing to do is call a professional tow service from a highly equipped tow company as these needs would require special towing equipment, tow truck, and a professional operator.

How to Change a Tire

Tires are an essential part of every vehicle. A perfectly working engine is useless without them. The sad news is, even if you have made sure your tires are regularly checked up and replaced as necessary, they are still a target for misfortunes. Running over sharp or rugged objects can cause significant damage or even can bust your tires.  And driving at low speeds does not exempt you. More often than not, to do away with the unfavorable effects of having flat tires, the skill of changing them yourself is extremely important.

The truth is dealing with a flat tire is not at all hard. Being unable to call for prompt and reliable roadside tire service from a reputable roadside assistance company like Irvington Tow Truck should not make you feel helpless. In this case, all you have to do is be equipped at all times. That means your car trunk has to have everything you will need in repairing or replacing it.

Tire Repair/Replacement 101

​Tools and Equipment
The Importance of Spare Tire - The first thing you should ever secure before commencing your trip is a spare tire. Your car should be equipped with it. Your spare tire is not supposed to replace your flat tire permanently though. All it is there for is so that you will be able to drive on to the nearest tire or auto repair shop for a dependable repair or replacement.

Next to spare tire, tools and equipment needed for a tire change service are the following:
1.      Tire Jack – For the record, without this, you will never be able to carry out any tire replacements. What this tire jack does is lift the frame of your car off the flat tire, creating enough space for the tire removal and subsequent repair or replacement.
2.      Lug Wrench – This is what you will use in loosening and removing the lug nuts from your tire frame.
3.      Screwdriver – This will assist you in prying off the hubcap to completely separate your flat tire from its frame. This tool helps you begin and end your tire replacement activity.
4.      Safety Equipment – This includes triangle signs, warning flares, lights, and your safety vest. These all are there to make you look more noticeable to the people that will drive past you on the road, thereby warning them that there is a car repair going on.
5.      You may also want to refer to your car’s manual to know which spot is best to place your tire jack. Carelessly placing it anywhere may damage your car consequently.

Practicing Safety 24/7
All roads have dangers as their constant partners. Performing any tire repair or replacement by the side, if not in the middle of it, poses a threat to safety. Hence, exercising safety precautions is something you should do as much and often as possible.  Aside from putting on your safety vest and placing the safety signs, what else should be done? Here’s a list:

1.      Move your car to a safe location. If you can’t do this, then cancel your repair or replacement, vacate and lock your car, and make sure you have all the important personal stuff with you as you leave it.
2.      Should tire repair/replacement be deemed doable, make sure you do it only on a flat surface. Otherwise, your car will obviously roll in the long run and that is like another level of danger you will be dealing with.
3.      Wedge your tires. A flat surface should not be a guarantee however. Be twice sure by wedging your tires with the help of bricks or large rocks to make sure they do not roll while you carry out the repair/replacement.


Tire Replacement – A Step by Step Guide
Now, if you have already secured all the necessary tools and equipment and followed the safety precautions and you are still not able to reach a good tow truck nearby, follow this step-by-step guide in changing your flat tire.

Once your car is in a safe location and all safety devices are placed, follow these next steps:
1.      Remove the flat tire’s hubcap. Behind it you will see the lug nuts that hold your tire in place.
2.      Loosen the lug nuts using your lug wrench. Loosen by turning the wrench counterclockwise enough   to allow them to twist off by hand.
3.      Position the jack against the frame near the flat tire (you may refer to your manual for the jack spot).
4.      Lift your car using the jack about 6 inches from the ground.
5.      Once your jack is stable and straight, proceed by removing the loosened lug nuts.
6.      Then, remove the flat tire. It will not take much effort to remove it once lugs are removed.
7.      Install your spare tire.
8.      Attach and tighten the lug nuts.
9.      Jack the car down to the ground.
10.    Finally tighten the lug nuts.
11.    Remove the jack.
12.    Reattach the hubcap. Replace when necessary.

Replacing a flat tire is not that hard but it sure requires strength and effort. If you wish to be spared all the hassle, call Irvington Tow Truck right away. This road assistance and tow truck service company is number one at providing prompt, quality response to every driver in need. It offers.

TIPS FOR TRIPS: TAKE CARE OF YOUR CAR DURING HOLIDAY TRAVELS

One can hardly find a person that does not love or is not excited about the holiday season; everyone is thrilled for it. Thanksgiving and Christmas particularly are joyously celebrated all throughout America. During these much awaited times, one can easily find something gallivanting about the streets, the malls, the parks, and just about anywhere. To a lot of people, holidays are a time for shopping, a great opportunity for winter activities, and a time to make lovely memories while to others, it is a perfect time between a vacation and another vacation.

Cars are an important medium to get all holiday plans done. Long car trips are usually present during such times. In most cases, cars make up the bustling streets and add up to the beautiful city lights. However, they are usually least attended to during holidays.

Of course nobody wants to get stuck on the road because of a car breakdown or engine malfunction. That is why proper maintenance and regular checkups are needed. Irvington Tow Truck is 24/7 on standby; we are ready to respond to all road emergency needs and can offer premium road assistance and tow truck service nearby even on Christmas Eve.  Unless you are okay that your much awaited holiday trip gets spoiled, you have to be sure that your vehicle is properly maintained to travel for long miles.  ​

Make sure your holiday travels are all smooth and safe. Ready your car for any holiday trips by running through this checklist:

·        Check your fuel supply. If you are to travel for long-distance, make sure you have more than a sufficient gas supply. Moreover, considering the climate and road conditions of your route is also advisable, especially during the holidays.

As Christmas and Thanksgiving seasons are usually cold, it usually makes the fuel hard to keep warm. Consequently, cold fuel makes engines difficult to start (even more so, combined with a dying battery). When this happens, the best thing to do is grab some fuel de-icer and keep it in your car at all times. Fuel de-icers are an effective tool for prevention; it will help you avoid having a frozen fuel. However, it will not do much if your fuel is already frozen.

If you’re driving long distance and don’t have a full tank, then you may risk running out of gas. We see this happening to a lot of out-of-towners.  If you’ve run out of gas, then we do offer flatbed towing.

·        Double check your windshield wipers. Before your travel date, do your share of weather forecast research and see if it is likely going to snow on that day. If yes, on top of your snow tires, make sure your windshield wipers are well conditioned and prepared. Go for the ones with rubber-clad or winter wiper blades. They are likely to assist you more, helping you keep your focus on the road.

·        Double check your lights. This holiday season is usually cold. You will not want to travel at night but just in case your long travel reaches the dark hours, make sure your lights are working properly. Lights are required in every car by the law for a reason. Your head lights, tail lights, hazard lights play their respective important role to make sure you get a safe trip as much as possible.

Be prepared for the perils of the road with this tips:

1. Secure a flashlight and store it somewhere accessible inside your vehicle at all times. During these tough times, you need to be visible.  

2. Have your cellular phone within reach at all times. (But never use your phone while driving. Once you do it, you know what you're in for!)

3. Prepare a storage for change inside your car. It can serve as an instant access to cab fare and emergency prepaid calls.

4. If your vehicle is in trouble, regardless if it is engine related or not, raising its hood automatically conveys a message that your vehicle is stuck and busted. It can serve the triangle flares' purpose in case you forgot to bring the latter.
