Tires: Don't tire out before you reach your destination. Check your car's tire pressure and inspect for any cracks, bulges, or wear. If they're worn out, replace them before your journey.

Brakes: Don't brake your journey with faulty brakes. Test them before hand to make sure they're working well.

Air Filter: Don't let a dirty air filter bring you down. Check and clean or replace it if necessary.
Fuel: Don't run out of fuel before you reach your destination. Make sure your car has enough fuel for the journey.

By following these easy tips, you can make sure your car is Raya-ready and avoid any unexpected delays on the road.
