What Services Should I Get to Winterize My Vehicle?
Are you ready to head into the winter months? Like a person, a car needs the right equipment to ensure you're prepared for whatever the wintery weather can throw. While people use thick coats, heavy boots, and layers to prepare, a car requires several services to stay at peak performance no matter how much snow is falling.
Our service team is happy to detail your vehicle's necessary services to stay prepared. By staying diligent with your winter maintenance, you can prevent issues from occurring during the winter months. Consider the following options below, and check off items on your winter maintenance service checklist as soon as possible!
Services Offered
Car Battery
If your vehicle can't start in the winter, you're either stuck at home or stuck far away and victim to cold temperatures. Waiting for a tow truck is an option, but it's better to be proactive than reactive regarding your vehicle. Cold temperatures require more energy from your battery to start your vehicle. Our service experts can check your battery and charging system, replacing it if they determine it won't work well in the coming months.
Schedule Service
Coolant
Coolant and antifreeze levels are required by your radiator to regulate your engine during extreme temperatures, including cold weather. The winter months can cause your vehicle's fluids to thicken and even freeze, preventing your engine from starting. Our team will check your coolant and antifreeze levels to ensure they're topped off and fresh for the winter months.
Schedule Service
Engine Oil
Another fluid that helps keep your engine running, oil is also affected by winter weather. While typically quick and easy, an oil change can help your engine run better. Synthetic oils can improve engine performance and prepare you for colder weather. The oil will also filter debris from the road, another benefit during the winter.
Schedule Service
Tires
Your tires can lose a pound of pressure for every nine degrees of temperature drop. Driving through snowy roads with underinflated tires can lead to losing traction control and finding yourself stuck on the side of the road. Aside from services like wheel alignment, tire pressure check, and more, we can also provide a set of winter tires that offer better traction control and tread depth designed for snowy roads.
Schedule Service
Brakes
Having brakes that are in tip-top shape can ensure your vehicle properly stops in time, even when the road conditions are less than ideal. Don't neglect brake system service. Our experts can check brake fluid levels and replace brake pads or other parts to equip you for more successful winter driving.
Schedule Service
Wipers
If you can't see the road during the winter months, you can't react to unexpected snowfall or cars stopped ahead of you on the road. Most wiper blades last a year, but you may consider wiper blades designed for snow and ice to keep your windshield free of impediments. We recommend topping off your windshield fluid to keep your line of sight clear from salt and grime.
