- Check Your Antifreeze and Coolant: To prevent your coolant from freezing, it’s important to ensure that it has the correct concentration of antifreeze.
- Check Your Tires: Tire pressure can drop in colder weather. Therefore, it’s imperative to get your tires checked before temperatures drop. In addition, consider getting winter tires put on by our service team located near Minneapolis.
- Check the Oil: Because thicker oils can become iffy in cold temperatures, consider using recommended winter-grade oil for your car. We will be happy to fill your car with winter oil!
- Replace Wiper Blades: It’s vital to have wiper blades that can properly handle snow and ice. In addition, be sure to top off your windshield washer fluid with a winter formula.
- Test Your Lights: Because it gets darker earlier in the winter, it’s vital to have lights that work properly – for your safety and the safety of others. This includes headlights, tail lights, and turn signals.
- Check Your Brakes: When driving on snow or ice, it’s vital to have brakes that work properly so you can stop in time if needed. Head to our dealership today to replace worn brake pads and make sure that the brake fluid is at the recommended level.
