Here at Autokid Mobility Solutions, we care about your safety and the proper treatment of your vehicle. Whether you’re on the road for business or personal travel, we want to ensure your vehicle remains in top condition. But first, let’s discuss the common problems that hot weather can cause and the solutions offered at Autokid—your one-stop shop from sale to after-sales service.
A 2025 Philstar article by Cariaso reports that the Philippines ranks as the third most heat-impacted country in Asia. With rising temperatures, the risks to your vehicle increase as well. Read more about it here. Hot weather can cause several mechanical and performance issues that may leave you stranded on the road.
Common Vehicle Problems Caused By Heat And How You Can Prevent Them
1. Engine Overheating
Cause: High temperatures put extra strain on your engine, especially if coolant levels are low, the radiator is faulty, or the thermostat is malfunctioning.
Effect: Engine damage, reduced performance, and even complete breakdowns.
Prevention: Regularly inspect and maintain your engine’s cooling system, ensuring that coolant levels are adequate and that radiators are functioning properly.
2. Tire Blowouts
Cause: Heat increases tire pressure, making underinflated or worn-out tires more susceptible to failure.
Effect: Loss of vehicle control, potential accidents, and unexpected downtime.
Prevention: Monitor tire tread wear and maintain proper tire pressure as the manufacturer recommends.
3. Brake Fade (Reduced Braking Efficiency)
Cause: Excessive heat buildup, especially in heavy traffic or downhill driving. Worn brake pads and old brake fluid can worsen the issue.
Effect: Longer stopping distances, increased risk of accidents, and compromised road safety.
Prevention: Regularly check your brakes, replace worn-out pads, and flush brake fluid periodically.
4. Battery Failure
Cause: Heat accelerates battery wear by causing fluid evaporation and internal corrosion.
Effect: Difficulty starting the vehicle and potential electrical malfunctions.
Prevention: Keep the battery clean, check connections, and routinely test its condition.
5. Air Conditioning (A/C) Malfunctions
Cause: Continuous A/C use strains the system, leading to leaks or compressor failure.
Effect: Uncomfortable rides, driver fatigue, and potential health risks due to excessive heat. Increased fuel consumption.
Prevention: Schedule routine A/C system inspections and servicing to keep it running efficiently.
