Winter weather doesn’t just make driving dangerous, it can wreak havoc on your vehicle. With Subaru service, you can ensure your vehicle is prepared. Zeigler Subaru of Schererville is sharing tips to care for your vehicle this winter.
Inspect Your Tires
Your tires will play a critical role in your safety this winter. Check to make sure that your tires have at least 6/32 of an inch of tread, so that you’ll have the traction you need. We recommend replacing your tires with winter tires, if you haven’t already. They're specially designed to provide extra grip on icy or snowy roads.
Test Your Battery
Cold temperatures can seriously strain your car's battery. It’s important to have your batery ttested to make sure that it’s ready for the season. When we test it, we also carefully inspect and clean it, as well as check to see if it’s time to replace it.
Check Your Fluids
The cold can also compromise your car’s various fluids. You should make sure yours are at least at the recommended level or replace them, if you’re due for a replacement. Your vehicle’s fluids include your engine oil, brake fluid, coolant, transmission fluid, and power steering fluid.
Replace Your Windshield Wipers
Windshield wipers can take quite the beating over the winter. It's a good idea to start the season with a good set, since they can easily become brittle or damaged during the winter. Make sure that you also have plenty of windshield wiper fluid to clear your windshield too.
