Car Maintenance and Safety Tips for Hosts

Sharing your car (especially during the holiday seasons) can be a rewarding experience, but it also comes with some important responsibilities. A key responsibility is maintaining your car in a top condition before each booking. Here are some maintenance tips to keep in mind.

1. Check your engine oil ๐Ÿ’ง

Make sure your engine oil is clean and topped up to the recommended level. Dirty oil can damage your engine and affect your car's performance.

2. Check your tyres ๐Ÿ›ž

Check the air pressure in your tyres and make sure they're properly inflated. Flat tyres can decrease fuel efficiency and increase the risk of a blowout.

3. Inspect your brakes ๐Ÿ”

Make sure your brakes are functioning properly and replace worn brake pads. Brakes are crucial for safe driving, especially during rainy weather conditions.

4. Replace your wipers ๐ŸŒง๏ธ

Check your wipers for any cracks or damage and replace them if needed. Good visibility is essential for safe driving.

5. Check your battery ๐Ÿชซ

Make sure it's fully charged and in good condition. You don't want your Guests to get stranded with a dead battery during the holidays!

6. Clean your car ๐Ÿงฝ

Finally, make sure your car is clean inside and out. This will not only make a good impression on your Guests but also help prevent wear and tear on your car's interior and exterior.

7. GPS Tracker ๐Ÿ“ฑ

In the rare event where you need to track the whereabouts of your car, a GPS tracker can be an invaluable tool for locating your vehicle quickly and efficiently.

From 1 October 2022,  it is compulsory for all vehicles listed on TREVO to be equipped with a GPS tracker. You can purchase and install your own GPS tracker or opt for a TREVO Track device.

IMPORTANT: Hosts who opt for their own GPS tracker should ensure that it is already installed in their vehicle and functioning properly.

So, there you have it - maintaining your car before each booking is a no-brainer. Not only does it keep your Guests happy, but it also protects your car and helps you save money in the long run. Plus, being a responsible and reliable Host means that you're more likely to get repeat customers and positive reviews. And who doesn't love happy customers and glowing reviews?
