FREE educational event on April 22 to encourage car care in advance of summer travel

NORMAN, Okla. – April 11, 2025 – Do you know how to check your car’s oil? Could you change a tire or the engine air filter? With the busy summer travel season just around the corner, AAA is hosting a ‘Girls’ Night at the Garage’ car care event – a fun, educational evenings during which a trusted mechanic will take the mystery out of basic vehicle maintenance.

According to S&P Global Mobility, the average age of vehicles on U.S. roadways is 12.6 and that aging trend is expected to continue. Previous AAA research indicates that vehicles 10 years and older are twice as likely to break down and four times more likely to encounter a problem serious enough to require a tow. This is especially important with the heat of summer and busy summer travel season approaching. With that in mind, AAA is underscoring the need for basic vehicle maintenance and offering this ‘Girls Night at the Garage’ event to help educate consumers in a safe, fun environment.

Ladies in the Norman/OKC area are invited to sign up and attend this free event hosted by AAA car care experts:Girls Night at the Garage with logo.jpg

“While AAA is known for its Emergency Roadside Service, we want to encourage preventive vehicle maintenance because there are now a record number of older vehicles on U.S. roadways, which means more drivers are at risk of a breakdown, said Jessica McKenzie, Car Care Manager, AAA Norman. “Our goal is to reduce that risk, so everyone can get where they are going as safely as possible.”

‘Girls’ Night at the Garage’’ attendees will learn about:

  • Warning Light Indicators
  • Oil changes
  • Air and cabin filters
  • Wiper blades
  • Cooling system
  • Battery maintenance
  • Tires and wheel alignment
  • Distracted driving
