If the windshield washers on your car do not work the first thing to check is the fluid level in your washer reservoir. Open the hood of your car and Look for a blue plastic lid. The lid should be labeled washer or have a symbol of a windshield on it. From there its a one step deal, fill er up! If the washers still do not work contact your local servicenter for an indepth diagnosis.#windshieldwashers #windshield #wipers

The short answer is that the wipers are likely worn out. Windshield wipers are in a harsh environment; ice, snow, rain, and then baked in the sun. The rubber will deteriorate and generally last for 6-18 months. The biggest contributor to wiper blades "chattering" is dirt and debris on the windshield. To make your wiper blades last longer make sure to regularly clean the glass and not to let the wiper blades run on a dry windshield. Clean the entire windshield with glass cleaner and a towel. You should also clean the wiping edge of the blade.#wipers #windshield #noisywipers

Wondering "how to change a headlight"? For some vehicles replacing a burned out lamp is relatively easy. If your vehicle has access you may be able to replace the lamp yourself from under the hood. Other makes and models require disassembly of various shields and covers, possibly even removal of the bumper. Be careful to orient the new bulb properly and avoid getting oil/grease on the new bulb. If you have one lamp out it is a good time to check all of your lights.#headlamp #headlight http://ow.ly/i/imLyH

Power steering fluid should be changed every 3 years or 30,000 miles. As components in the steering system wear, metal particles will contaminate the fluid, which will cause seals in the system to leak and components to eventually fail. Checking the fluid level and changing the fluid at regular intervals recommended by the manufacturer is important for the life of the hoses, pistons, valves, seals, and the power steering pump itself
