Important Winter Vehicle Preparation

Tire Maintenance for Winter

Switching to winter tires or ensuring your current tires have adequate tread is critical. Check the tire pressure and consider a rotation to promote even wear.

Preparing Fluids and Battery for Winter

Cold affects batteries and oil. Test battery, change oil, and check antifreeze levels.

Winter Brake and Light Checks

Ensure brakes and lights are working for winter’s short, dark days.
