Even though spring is right around the corner, we could still be in store for some harsh winter weather. And you never want to get caught unprepared, especially when it comes to your car. Our Nissan service center offers these helpful tips so you can be ready.
1. Examine Your Tires
Your tires play a critical role in keeping your safe, and this is particularly evident when roads are slick. You have to make sure that the treads are deep enough to supply you with the most traction. If they’re too shallow, consider getting a new set.
2. Check Your Brakes
Your braking system is also are vital when it comes to safety, and it needs to be in optimal condition. Having the system looked at will let you know if anything – like the pads – should be replaced.
3. Test the Battery
If you don’t know how much charge your battery has left, you should have it tested. An older battery can struggle to get a car started when temperatures are low. And being proactive about a replacement can prevent an unpleasant surprise on a frosty morning.
4. Replace Your Wipers
If your wipers are cracked and tattered, they’re probably not doing a very good job of clearing your windshield. And when snow or freezing rain is coming down, you need to have as much visibility as possible. In addition to new wipers, make sure that you have plenty of wiper fluid in the reservoir.
