Tips for out-smarting common car emergencies in your Orlando Toyota

No one wants to encounter an emergency while driving their new Toyota in Orlando; however, sometimes there’s just no avoiding it! This is why it’s a smart idea to prepare yourself for any car emergencies that come your way. With the right preparation, you can outsmart these common emergencies while in your new Toyota! This is why our Toyota dealership in Orlando is explaining some of the most common car emergencies and how you can be ready with car safety tips!

An overheated engine is a common problem many drivers have to deal with on a daily basis. This is something you want to have checked our right away at our Toyota Service Center; however, it becomes an emergency when your car catches fire! As soon as you see your vehicle catch fire, you should pull over and evacuate the car immediately. Fire can cause the engine to explode, which is why you don’t want to try to put the fire out yourself and you should get everyone a safe distance from it! Immediately call 911!

Another mechanical issue that can go wrong in any vehicle, including our new Toyota in Orlando is brake failure – especially when you don’t take care of necessary brake service. Although this is a

scary experience, this is definitely not the time to panic. First, you want to take your foot off the acceleration to help slow you down. If you drive a manual, you should shift your car into first gear. Then, you can use the emergency brake and try to pull over onto the side of the road to avoid putting any other drivers in danger.

There are a lot of bodies of water here in Central Florida. If your new Toyota in Orlando ever started sinking in water, it’s important to keep calm! First, you want to try to open a window and climb out before the car becomes submerged. If you find your vehicle is sinking too quickly, you want to wait until the car is filled with water and the pressure is equalized to open the door and escape.

Stay safe while on the road in your new Toyota!
