Tips to maintain your Tata Harrier
The care you put into maintaining your Tata Harrier today will pay dividends in the long run. You just need to be consistent with your care for it to bear fruit. Here are some simple ways to get the most out of your car through regular service and maintenance.
Driving habits
How you drive the Harrier determines its long-term performance. Be as gentle as possible when you drive to extend the life and performance of your Tata Harrier.
- Maintain a steady speed to achieve optimal performance from your car. Speeding unnecessarily can lead to the quick deterioration of your car and, hence, more frequent visits to the service centre.
- You can use the Tata Harrier’s eco mode feature when you are on long drives or stuck in traffic to save fuel and get good performance from the car.
- Don’t brake or accelerate suddenly. Be gentle, as this can save your brake, accelerator, and tyres.
- An idling engine can burn up fuel and increase wear and tear. Switch off the engine during long stops.
- When you start your car, warm up the engine and wait until it reaches an optimal temperature before accelerating to a higher speed.
- Use high-quality fuel and adhere to the manufacturer's recommendations.
Service Schedule
The most effective way to keep your Tata Harrier in good condition is to follow the service schedule provided by Tata Motors. Simply following the schedule will keep your car's health in top form.
- The engine oil and filter must be changed according to the service schedule to prevent engine damage. If the oil level drops before the scheduled time, be sure to get a refill immediately. The same goes for the filter.
- Check the brake pads regularly and have them replaced immediately if they are worn out. Brake fluid must be changed according to the schedule or as needed.
- Wheel alignment and tyre rotation must be performed at specific intervals to maintain your car's optimal performance.
- Always opt for OEM spare parts over aftermarket parts for optimal performance and a perfect fit.
- Filters, oils, and fluids must be monitored and replaced/refilled according to the service schedule.
- If you are going on a long trip, getting your car serviced before it can be very beneficial.
Exterior care
Your car’s exterior protects the interior. Therefore, it is crucial to maintain the exterior of your Tata Harrier in top condition to prolong its life and performance.
- Wash your car regularly to remove dust and other pollutants and prevent corrosion.
- Scratches and dents must be repaired immediately. Failing to repair these small issues can lead to more significant damage when corrosion sets in.
- Another great way to protect your car’s paint job is by getting it waxed and polished at regular intervals.
- Park your car in a space that is covered, has good air flow, and is dry. This will prevent any weather-related damage.
- If a covered parking space is not available, you can use a car cover to offer protection from the elements.
- Keep the wheels and tyres clean. Check the tyre pressure regularly and top it up if it's low for your safety and to enhance your car's performance.
Interior care
When the car’s interior is dirty and chaotic, it reduces your driving comfort and interferes with the car's optimal functioning. Keeping the interior of your Tata Harrier clean can bring down your maintenance bills and increase your safety on the road as well.
- Vacuum your car’s upholstery often. Use a car-friendly cleaning agent to keep the surfaces and windows clean and streak-free.
- Use floor mats and seat covers to keep the interior tidy. Wash these accessories regularly and replace them when they are worn out.
- Keep the electronic components clean. If they malfunction, get them checked and repaired at the service centre promptly.
- Don’t eat inside the car. If you happen to spill any food or drinks, clean it up immediately and open the windows to eliminate the smell.
- Smoking inside the car is also a no-no, as the smell is quite difficult to eliminate.
- If you are transporting your pets, keep them leashed or in a crate to prevent damage to the interiors.
