Your vehicleās tires are critical to road safety. Be sure to check that you have adequate tread levels on each tire. Also, check the tread and the sidewalls for any damage. If you plan to travel on roads with snow and ice, you should change to snow tires.
Make sure that your vehicle has sufficient stopping power in winter conditions. If your vehicle has worn brake pads, be sure to visit our service center. Also, check to see if you have enough brake fluid.
You donāt want to deal with compromised viability while on the road in the winter. Check your vehicleās wiper blades to ensure that they donāt have peeling rubber off bent blades.
You donāt want to be stuck in winter weather with a dead battery. Be sure to inspect your vehicleās battery for any signs of corrosion. Corrosion spots can appear on the battery casing or battery terminals. Also, check the cold cranking amperage of the battery.
Has it been more than two years since you replaced the antifreeze in your vehicle? Then make sure that you give your vehicle antifreeze service before the first cold front arrives.
Small windshield cracks can expand in the winter months. Now is the time to repair those windshield cracks and chips. Our service center offers affordable pricing on windshield repair service.
Did you know that your vehicleās washer fluid can potentially freeze in cold weather? Make sure to change your vehicleās washer fluid to a winter blend.
Maintain a comfortable temperature in your vehicleās cabin all winter long. Be sure to inspect the heater, seat warmers, and steering wheel warmers. Also, be sure to check the defroster.
