Post-Rescue Checklist Before Driving | MyMechanic Roadside Assistance
Before getting back on the road, run through this essential post‑rescue checklist. Stay safe with MyMechanic — trusted roadside assistance for Singapore cars in Malaysia.
✅ Post‑Rescue Checklist: What to Inspect Before Driving Off Again
Emergencies on the road can happen anytime—flat tyres, sudden engine stalls, or a drained battery. Thanks to MyMechanic’s roadside assistance for Singapore cars in Malaysia, help is on hand. Once your car is running again, check these items before driving away:
1. Tyres & Wheels
Inspect tyre pressure (including the spare if fitted).
Check for visible cuts, bulges, or punctures.
Ensure wheel nuts are tightened properly after any tyre change.
2. Fluids & Leaks
Look under the vehicle for oil, coolant, or transmission leaks.
Confirm coolant and engine oil are at safe levels before continuing.
3. Battery & Electricals
If you had a flat battery, confirm the engine starts smoothly.
Test headlights, brake lights, and indicators to ensure they work.
4. Brakes & Steering
Press the brake pedal—ensure it feels firm, not spongy.
Turn the steering wheel—check for abnormal stiffness or looseness.
5. Emergency Gear
Pack back your tools, jack, and safety triangle properly.
Keep jumper cables and emergency lights accessible for the future.
6. Quick Test Drive
Drive slowly for the first few minutes—listen for unusual sounds.
If the car still feels off, call MyMechanic before resuming your journey.
