Heat’s Hard on Cars Keep Them Cool | Las Vegas News

Southern Nevada’s brutal heat isn’t just taxing your comfort—it’s wrecking your car too. With AAA handling nearly 300,000 roadside calls last year, mostly for flat tires, dead batteries, and jump starts, extreme temps are shortening battery life, cracking tires, and wearing down belts and hoses. Experts warn heat can slash battery lifespan in half. Don’t wait for warning signs—check fluids, inspect tires and belts, and keep your car prepped like sunscreen for your ride. If trouble hits, pull over safely, turn on hazard lights, and stay put with windows cracked. Always keep water handy—your car’s survival depends on it.
