5 Winter Service Tips
Routine car care is essential all year long, but especially in the winter months. Here are 5 steps you can take to prepare your vehicle for winter driving:
- Make an Emergency Kit: It’s a good idea to have an emergency kit in your car all year long, but especially in the cold. Pack food and water, batteries, shovels, and blankets. Kitty litter can also be useful if you need to create traction.
- Swap Your Tires: Winter tires are important for snowy and icy driving conditions, but that’s not all. They’re also designed to withstand colder temperatures, which means you’ll have greater driver control on every ride.
- Check Your Battery: Batteries can lose up to 50% of their capacity in temperatures below freezing. It’s a good idea to have your battery inspected before the cold weather hits so you can get it replaced as needed.
- Inspect Hoses and Belts: We rely on our hoses and belts to keep our vehicles running right. Hoses and belts are typically made of rubber, however, which is prone to damage and cracking in the cold. Our team will inspect your hoses and belts and repair or replace them as necessary.
- Keep Your Vehicle Clean: Dirt and salt from the road can cause damage and corrosion to your vehicle’s paint and metal over time. Wash your new Genesis regularly in the winter to keep it running for a long time to come.
