How Weather Plays a Bigger Role in Your Engine Life Than You Think

• Be Sigurado sa Bawat Takbo with the Right Coolant, Brake Fluid, and Rainy Season Vehicle Checks

PASIG CITY, Philippines | 25 June 2026 — As the Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) officially ushers in the Habagat season, Filipino motorists are reminded that changing weather conditions can have a significant impact on vehicle performance. While many drivers focus on slippery roads and reduced visibility during the rainy months, fluctuating temperatures, humidity, and stop-and-go traffic also place added stress on a vehicle’s engine and braking system. To help motorists stay prepared, Prestone®, the country’s No. 1 Brake Fluid and No. 1 Coolant, encourages drivers to make preventive maintenance part of their rainy season routine and be Sigurado sa Bawat Takbo.

Even during the rainy season, engines continue to generate high operating temperatures, making a healthy cooling system essential for reliable performance. Along with checking tires, windshield wipers, lights, and battery condition, motorists are encouraged to inspect coolant levels, brake fluid, and the engine bay for leaks before small problems become expensive repairs. Regular maintenance not only improves vehicle reliability but also provides greater confidence when driving through unpredictable weather, flooded roads, and heavy traffic.

For dependable engine protection, Prestone Asian Coolant is formulated with 5X Superior Cooling Action and Cor-Guard™ Technology to help prevent overheating while protecting against rust and corrosion. Available in Red/Pink, Blue, and Green variants, the coolant is specifically designed for compatibility with a wide range of Asian vehicle brands. Complementing engine protection is Prestone Brake Fluid, which delivers 5X Superior Braking Action Guaranteed for vehicles requiring a DOT 3 specification. Engineered to resist overheating, brake fade, and moisture-related performance decline, it helps ensure consistent braking performance, especially during wet driving conditions.

Whether commuting through city traffic, embarking on a weekend road trip, or simply running daily errands, proper vehicle maintenance is the first step toward safer and more reliable driving. Prestone Asian Coolant and Prestone Brake Fluid are available at leading automotive retailers nationwide, including True Value, Ace Hardware, Handyman, Blade, as well as official stores on Lazada, Shopee, and TikTok Shop. By choosing genuine Prestone products from authorized retailers, motorists can enjoy greater peace of mind knowing their vehicles are ready for whatever the road—and the weather—may bring.
