repaired. Have any torn or frayed safety belts replaced.
Also look for any opened or broken air bag coverings,
and have them repaired or replaced. (The air bag system
does not need regular maintenance.)

inserts that appear worn or damaged or that streak or
miss areas of the windshield. Also see ªWiper Blades,
