No paper carried the story,
an't understand why. It was
)od material packed with
Liman interest.
It happened this way: They

long time. The children had

nd highways in search of sun

vehicle breakdowns
anging from simple flat tires
o major engine failure.
Many of the breakdowns
rill be unpreventable?the
esult of circumstances and
oad conditions at the time of
he failure, or damage caused
>y collision or accident.
But the great majority of
he breakdowns CAN be pre ented
long before the moorist
sets out in search of
vacation or holiday pleasure.
The avoidance of car failure
nvolves no more lhan lli?>
nspection of 23 "lifesaving"
joints on his vehicle during
in ordinary lubrication job.
The 23 lifesaving points,
jroperlv cared for. can spell
he difference between a
pleasure trip or one fraught
vith delay and needless exjense.
The average motorist
nav inspect a number of these
joints himself to see that
:hev are in a proper and safevorking
condition. Most of
ihem. however, require the
L-areful scrutiny of trained
personnel to see that the
function for which they were
designed has been met and
is properly serviced.
The 23 lifesaving points
which should be inspected by
vou and/or vour serviee man
shown in the keyed drawing
here, are:
1. Springs: Possible broker
or shifted spring leaves, which
could mean the difference between
a comfortable or hare
ride. Check spring seat Ubolts
for tightness. Can be
expensive if neglected 01

They said they would never

They were right. ? They
never would forget it.
Here were four people with
everything to live for.
And they did live. ?There
was no accident.
They were among the mil
lions of people who every day
drive automobiles without an
accident. They were among
the millions of motorists who
never make the headlines.
They had a vacation the whole

2. Steering linkage: Check
lor loose joints?the driver's
control depends on proper
functioning in this area.
3. Universal Joints: Check
for loose joints or torn dust
boots. This area requires an
expert inspection and could
mean trouble if ignored.
4. Transmission: Check
level and condition of lubricant.
The level has to remain
constant and the lubricant
free of contaminants.
o. LJiiiereniiai: lhcck level
and condition of lubricant.
Same as above.
8. Tires: Check for cuts,
imbedded foreign particles
and tread wear. Careful attention
may prevent blowouts
and routine rotating adds life
to the tires.
7. Crankcase: Check level
and condition of engine oil.
Watch for leaks and spillover.
Oil's "SAE Grade" should be
proper for the summer season.
8. Rubber Hose: Clamp
tightness and condition should
be inspected. Heat frequently
causes hose to dry and crack.
Water loss on the road can bo
a real problem!
9. Fan and Water Pump:
Check fan belt for condition
and correct tension. Check
mimn for leaks. Failure of
either can leave you stranded.
10. Air Cleaner and Oil Kill
Cap: Check for need of cleaning
and re-oiling for improved
efficiency.
11. Oil Filter: Check mile1
ago on filter against speedometer
reading. Change filter
element every 5.000 miles for
top efficiency and engine protection.
1 12. Cooling System: Re1
move anti-freeze left in radiator
from the winter and replace
with water and rust
inhibitor in summer. Keep
water level up.

days had a happy ending.
The moral of the story no
paper carried? It's just this:
Safety Doesn't Make Headlines.
The results of common
sense driving are eviaencea
by accidents that never happen?by
headlines that were
never printed. That's the big
safety storv. It's a storv that
happens so often it isn't news
to the public. Bi.it it is news
? and good news? to those it
happens to. And it's the best
reason in the world for driving
like an expert all the time,
every day.

Check lubricant level and
keep full.
14. Electric Hydraulic Mechanism:
Models equipped with
this feature for power steering
or power brakes should
be checked for proper functioning.
15. Power Steering: Check
fluid level. Drop in level
could cause loss of power
steering function.
16. Power Brakes: Check
fluid level and condition of
brake air cleaner for possible
lailure of brakes.
17. Automatic Transmission:
Check level of fluid.
Low fluid level could cause
failure and damage to the
t ransmission.
18. Battery: Keep battery
full of distilled water and
check c a b 1 e connections.
Car's entire electrical system
depends on battery.
19. Brakes: Be sure to check
foot and emergency brakes.
Your own safety and the
safety of others on the streets
and highways around you depend
on your brakes!
20. Steering Gear: Check
steering wheel for excessive
play. Too much free play in
the steering wheel will hamper
driving ability of the best
uriver.
21. Lights: Check for
burned out bulbs in brake
and turn-signal lights and
burned out headlight units.
22. Windshield W ipcrs:
Check condition of rubber
blades or just got a new pair
Thev wear out easily but are
inexpensive to replace, and a
clean wiping windshield wiper
helps safe driving a lot.
22. Air Suspension System:
Condensation should be
drained, if necessary, for safe
operation.
