Clean Car Clinics

Motor vehicles are a significant source of the emissions that pollute our region’s air.   Individual maintenance and driving habits can make a big difference in how much a vehicle pollutes, so it is important to keep up with basic preventive measures - ensuring fluids are changed regularly, engines are tuned properly, worn belts are replaced, and tires are inflated to the correct pressure. These are simple things to accomplish, but they are often overlooked. 
 
The Maryland Department of the Environment, the Baltimore Metropolitan Council and Precision Tune Auto Care have teamed up to offer Clean Cars for Clean Air Clinics. [Download a brochure]

The Clinics provide an opportunity for motorists to have their vehicles inspected for free by Precision Tune Auto Care technicians, and learn simple ways to maintain their vehicles to keep them running cleanly, while optimizing fuel use, minimizing repair costs, and extending vehicle operating life.

The program’s kick-off was held Sunday, April 20, at the Wal-Mart Super Center on Washington Boulevard in Arbutus
between 11:00 am and 2:00 pm.

Other clinics scheduled so far are listed below.

By participating in the Clean Cars for Clean Air Clinics, drivers can become an integral part of the campaign for cleaner air.
