Greetings!
Due to high demand, this month at Frisco Automotive we are continuing our "Stay Cool Special" by offering our FREE Vehicle AC Inspection once again. See details in the coupon offer below.
If your air conditioner isn't blowing as cool as it used to, or if it takes longer than usual to cool off your car, you may need to have your cooling system serviced.
Here's what to look for if your car's cooling system needs to be serviced:
* Steam coming from the engine compartment when you park your car.
* Sweet smell coming from your engine.
* Temperature gauge reading higher than usual.
* Gurgling sound when engine is turned off.
* Fluid dripping from under car.
* Discolored areas and leaking seams on plastic radiator tank
The ASE Certified Air Conditioning Technicians at Frisco Automotive have the tools and training to service all components of your air cooling system.
Whether it's a recharge of Freon or refrigerant, proper coolant levels are checked along with performance of components such as the engine fan, thermostat, radiator, water pump, engine coolant passages, heater core, belts and hoses. System pressure is tested and inspected to identify any external leaks. We have a system in place to delay premature wear and identify areas that need attention.
Remember, it's about the journey, so enjoy the road and stay cool.
Happy Travels!
Charles Haley, Owner

5 Safety Tips to Prevent Children
 from Hot Car Deaths While it may seem hard to believe that a parent or caregiver can forget their baby in the back seat of a vehicle, there have been 18 such death-related cases in the US this year alone. Leaving many parents asking, "How can this happen?"
Facts show that most accidental hot car deaths involve a change in routine, such as a parent who does not normally drop off their baby, but for some reason is given the task that day. That, combined with the facts that babies fall asleep in cars and often don't make any sounds, as well as rear facing car seats that are not easily in-view from a rear view mirror.
In today's cars, you hear an alert if a driver or passenger is not wearing a seat belt or if the key is left in the ignition. But until a safety device is created to protect children, there are some basic things that you can do as a reminder that your precious cargo is on-board.
* Leave your cellphone, shoe, purse, or anything you need every day, in the back seat next to your child's car seat. This way, if you forget your child, it will act as a reminder when you go to retrieve it.
* Keep a large stuffed animal in the child's car seat when it's not occupied. When the child is placed in the seat, put the stuffed animal in the front passenger seat. It's a visual reminder that anytime the stuffed animal is up front, you have a child in the back seat or safety seat.
* Call the person who was responsible for dropping off your child at day care or at the babysitter's house. Ask them via phone or even by text if they dropped off the baby or have a plan with your babysitter or day care that if they do not see your child by a certain time each day that the babysitter or day care will call you.
* Use drive-thru services (restaurants, banks, pharmacies, dry cleaners, etc.), when available, as well as your debit or credit card to pay for gas at the pump.
* To prevent children from getting trapped inside a hot car, make sure to always lock the car doors.
The extreme Texas summer heat is considered dangerous so it is never Ok to leave a child alone in a car, even for a few minutes, or with the car on and window's open.

Got a Minute for your Tires?
How to perform a one-minute tire inspection 
You can often catch tire problems early with a quick visual inspection before they become more costly or dangerous.
Here's what to look for:
* Uneven or excessive tread wear. This may indicate improper inflation. If inflation pressure is correct, a tire balancing or alignment issue may be indicated. Steering or suspension issues can also effect tread wear.
* Cracking or bulging treads or sidewalls
* Foreign objects puncturing the tire (nails, screws, glass)
* Tread separation from the body of the tire
We suggest a visual tire inspection about once a month, along with a tire inflation check. Frisco Automotive would be happy to check the condition of your tires. We know just what to look for to keep you on the road!
