• Windshield Crack & Chip Inspection – Small windshield damage can expand during the cold winter months. At our service center, we provide fast windshield repair at competitive prices.
• Prepare a Roadside Safety Kit – Make sure that you are prepared for the worst. Have a roadside safety kit ready. Your roadside safety kit should include flares, hazard road signs, and first aid materials such as bandages and ointments.
• Battery Test & Inspection – Test your battery to ensure that it has enough cold crank amperage. Also, be sure to inspect your battery for any signs of corrosion on the body or the battery connectors. Battery corrosion will appear as orange or green spots.
• Tire Inspection – Ensure that you have enough tread on your tires and check the pressure level on each tire. If you plan to drive in heavy snow, you may want to consider changing over to winter tires.
• Brake Inspection – Inspect your brakes for any signs of excessive wear. Also, check to see if you have proper braking power on the road. Remember that snow and icy roads will increase stopping distance.
• Check Wiper Blades – Check your wiper blades for any signs of wear, including peeling rubber and bent blades. Old wiper blades may not be able to effectively clear your windshield of snow, sleet, and ice.
• Change Washer Fluid to Winter Blend – It may surprise you to know that washed fluid can freeze in the winter. Therefore, you will want to change your washer fluid over to a winter blend.
• HVAC Inspection – Don’t freeze in your vehicle! Be sure to inspect your complete HVAC system. That includes the heater, seat warmers, and steering wheel warmers. Also, be sure to check the defroster.
• Check or Replace Engine Antifreeze – You don’t want your engine to freeze in the middle of the winter. That’s why you should take the time to check and possibly replace your engine’s antifreeze. If it has been over 30,000 miles since your last antifreeze service, then visit us for an affordable antifreeze service.
