Bring your Palisade out of hibernation for a spring refresh. Give your Hyundai a much-needed exterior wash that includes cleaning your wheels, tires, windows, and mirrors. Exterior Wash If your Hyundai needs a good wash, remember to use a mild car detergent with a soft sponge or microfiber cloth for the exterior. Don't forget the wheel wells, undercarriage, and areas behind the wheels where dirt and salt can accumulate. Your car will be shiny like new in no time. Waxing & Polishing Give your car the extra attention it deserves. Wax the exterior for added protection and shine, using a polish or paint sealant to restore the paint's luster. Your vehicle will thank you for it, not only for how it looks but for the protection it provides. Wheels & Tires Time to spiff up those wheels.

New Year’s resolutions can be tricky sometimes. If you choose something that requires too much commitment, then you set yourself up for failure. But if you choose something too simple, then you might conquer the task quickly and then never challenge yourself further. Driving is something we do every day, but we might not put too much thought into it. However, how well you drive can have an impact on not only you but your passengers and all the other drivers on the road. Why not take on some driving or car-related resolutions and make some goals related to those? Crain Hyundai of North Little Rock is here to help guide you through that process. New Year, Help Yourself to a New Hyundai in 2024—See What’s In Stock at Crain Hyundai of North Little Rock The first thing you should do when you start driving is put away your phone and use hands-free calling, available through Bluetooth in Hyundai models like the Tucson, Kona or Santa Cruz. If you forget to use hands-free calling, you might find yourself with a ticket. Texting and driving is a big no-no that can lead to serious consequences. We think paying attention more while driving is a great resolution to add to the list. A helpful tip to keep yourself from watching your phone instead of the road while driving is to put it away. Not just in the seat next to you. Put it in a designated spot each time you get in your Hyundai, like the glove compartment or backseat. This will condition you to know that your phone is off-limits while driving. Use the hands-free Bluetooth capabilities that come with your Hyundai. Even your Hyundai wants to help you keep your New Year’s Resolution. Everyone thinks they are a master at multitasking. What that really means is you’re trying to accomplish a million things at once but not really finishing any of them. Especially if you’re doing it while driving. In order to keep your resolution promise to pay attention more while driving your Hyundai, you don’t need to multitask. Your passengers and your fellow drivers on the road will thank you. You’ll even thank yourself because you won’t be at risk of an accident simply because you wanted to read an email. Maybe your other resolution is to make time for yourself. If you’re looking to clear your head or just have some quiet time to sit with your own thoughts, you can use your drive time to do that. With all of your focus on the road and not your phone, you can actually clear out that mind fog. You’ll be amazed at how much better you feel when you can unplug, even if for just a short ride. HyundaiCar Care Express Keeps Your Hyundai Running Now that you have some ideas for your resolutions, we hope we can make your Hyundai driving easier. Contact us if you’d like to test drive any Hyundai models or if we can help you with any service or parts needs at 5660 Warden Road.
