Headlights are a crucial part of your car’s safety features, allowing you to see the road at night and making your vehicle visible to others. Like any part of your car, headlights can wear out over time. Let’s go through some signs that you might need new headlights from the Cadillac dealership.

Dimming Headlights

Over time, the bulbs of your headlights can dim, providing less light when you turn them on. This dimming can be gradual, making it hard to notice at first. As soon as you realize your nighttime visibility is reduced, it’s a sign that they are losing their power, and you should have them replaced.

Flickering, Inconsistent Light

If your headlights flicker or sometimes switch between brighter and dimmer light for no apparent reason, it’s a sign that something is not right. This might be a sign of electrical issues in your vehicle, or your bulbs might be performing erratically just before they burn out. Flickering headlights are a distraction and a hazard, so you should get them taken care of before they can fail completely.

Your Cadillac is a symbol of luxury and precision, and every aspect of its maintenance contributes to the exceptional driving experience it offers. One critical component that often demands attention is your vehicle’s tires. As the only point of contact between your Cadillac and the road, ensuring they are in top condition is paramount. If you’re contemplating new tires, look no further than Earnhardt Chandler Cadillac for expert advice and unparalleled service.

Signs It’s Time for New Tires

Tread Wear

One of the most visible signs that your tires need replacing is worn-out tread. Over time, tires naturally wear down, but excessive or uneven tread wear can indicate issues with alignment or suspension. Regular inspections at Earnhardt Chandler Cadillac can catch these issues early, ensuring your Cadillac rides smoothly and safely.

Age of Tires

Even if your tires have sufficient tread, they can age and become less effective. The rubber compounds in tires degrade over time, making them more prone to failure. If your tires are over six years old, it’s advisable to have them inspected, and Earnhardt Chandler Cadillac is the ideal place for a thorough assessment.
