CAR CARE TIPS
Winter is approaching, bringing cold temperatures, salty
roads, wet conditions and other challenges for drivers. To
ensure your vehicle is at its best, follow these six simple tips
to get your vehicle winter-ready.
1. Add Antifreeze
Antifreeze can help protect
your engine from extreme
temperatures and help keep
fluids from freezing as cold
sets in.
2. Check Tires
When temperatures fall, air
inside tires contracts and
causes the pressure inside to
drop, which can make tires
susceptible to damage.
3. Change Oil
Colder temperatures can
cause motor oil to thiscken,
which can cause starting
problems. Change your oil just
before winter to keep oil
flowing easily through your
engine, helping your car start
easier.

4. Wash and Wax
Washing and applying a fresh
coast of wax before
fluctuating temperatures set
in can be the first line of
defense against ice, salt, sand
and slush. Visiting a car wash
is also a great way to get the
underbelly of the car clean to
avoid rusting, which helps
maintain the overall value of
the vehicle.
Additionally, washing at a car
wash regularly in the winter
can help keep the windshield,
mirrors and lights clean, which
is important in ensuring the
best possible vision for the
driver.

5. Replace Wipers
As thick snow starts falling, or
when rain and water turn to
ice, it’s important to have
properly fitted wiper blades to
keep your windshield.
