- Sherman Dodge brings together safety experts, technicians, and local families for a free Auto Safety Fair offering vehicle inspections, child seat checks, and car care workshops in Skokie.
Sherman Dodge has announced its Annual Community Auto Safety Fair, a family-friendly event offering free multi-point vehicle inspections, child car seat safety checks, and interactive workshops on essential maintenance practices. The event will be held Saturday, June 15, at the dealership’s Skokie location.
Created in collaboration with regional fire departments and certified safety technicians, the fair aims to promote road safety awareness, especially for families preparing for long summer road trips. The initiative comes as NHTSA data reports a 30% spike in vehicle breakdowns and tire-related incidents during summer travel months.
Free services and activities include:
- Brake, tire, and battery checks by certified CDJR technicians
- Professional child seat installation inspections
- Windshield wiper replacement station
- “Know Your Dashboard Lights” crash course
- A kids’ zone with vehicle-themed games and giveaways
“Safety is a shared responsibility, and this event makes knowledge and protection accessible to everyone,” said a Sherman Dodge event coordinator.
Beyond inspections, guests can attend workshops led by dealership staff and industry safety partners, including basic maintenance for first-time drivers and emergency readiness tips for families. All participants will receive a personalized digital vehicle health report and a $50 service credit valid for 30 days.
The fair also creates emotional connection—especially for families, single parents, and first-time car owners who often feel unequipped to understand or address basic safety concerns. By offering a zero-cost, zero-pressure learning environment, Sherman Dodge affirms its role not only as a retailer, but as a community advocate for driver preparedness.
A local attendee shared:
“I had no idea my daughter’s car seat wasn’t installed correctly. Sherman’s team helped fix it—and showed me how to do it right.”
