Essential Winter Car Prep Steps

Tire Care

Winter tires are essential. Check tread, pressure, and rotate tires for even wear.

Winter Battery and Fluid Checks

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

Ensuring Brakes and Lights are Winter-Ready

Ensure your brakes are in top condition and your lights are working properly. Visibility is key during the shorter, darker winter days.
