Pumpkin Spice & Preventive Fall Maintenance Tips

πŸ‚ Your Fall Guide to Staying Covered and Cozy

Fall is here, and while you’re busy swapping iced coffee for cider and debating whether it’s too soon to put out the inflatable turkey, your car might be quietly begging for attention. At MTM Insurance, we’re all about helping you enjoy the season—without any unexpected roadside drama. So let’s talk fall tips, collision coverage, and why ignoring that check engine light is inviting chaos to your hayride.

🚘 Collision Coverage: The Unsung Hero of Your Policy

Collision Coverage: The Unsung Hero of Your Policy

No one plans to get into a car accident. That’s the point. But when that rogue squirrel darts across the road or the first frost turns your driveway into an ice rink, collision coverage becomes your best friend.


Why it matters:

  • Covers damage to your vehicle from accidents, regardless of fault.
  • Helps you avoid paying out-of-pocket for repairs after a crash.
  • Essential for newer vehicles or if you’re still making payments.


Think of it like a seatbelt for your wallet—quietly working in the background until you need it.


πŸ› οΈ Fall Car Maintenance: Don’t Ghost Your Vehicle

Your car doesn’t need a Pumpkin Spice Latte, but it does need a little TLC before the temperatures drop. Here are some seasonal benchmarks to keep your ride road-ready:


  • Check engine light on? That’s not a suggestion—it’s a cry for help. Get it diagnosed before it turns into a horror story.
  • Tire pressure & tread: Cold air can deflate tires faster than your enthusiasm for raking leaves.
  • Battery check: Fall is the perfect time to test your battery before winter ghosts it completely.
  • Wiper blades & fluid: Falling leaves are pretty—until they smear across your windshield mid-commute.

🧑 Bonus Tip: Decorate with Intention

Fall decor isn’t just for your porch. Add a cozy touch to your car with a seasonal air freshener (hello, cinnamon apple), and keep a small blanket in the trunk for emergencies—or impromptu tailgating.

πŸ€” Final Thought: Coverage is Comfort

Just like layering up for chilly mornings, having the right insurance coverage gives you peace of mind. Collision coverage might not be flashy, but it’s the kind of protection that makes all the difference when life throws a curveball—or a deer—your way.


So go ahead, sip that cider, admire your mums, and drive with confidence. MTM Insurance is here to keep you covered, no matter what fall brings.
