Have you ever gotten into your car on a cold, Scranton morning only to find that the engine won't turn over? Don't let this happen to you! Before the cold weather sets in, there are a few things you can do to make sure your Chevy is ready for winter around the Scranton Wilkes-Barre region.
Have Your Battery Checked
The battery installed in your car helps start the engine and powers all of the electrical accessories in your vehicle. In cold weather, it can be harder for batteries to hold their charge, so a weak battery may not have enough juice to get you going. This makes it important to have your battery tested before the winter months. At our dealership in Pennsylvania, we got you covered with our battery test and installation service. Bring your Chevy vehicle in, and we'll make sure your battery is up to the task of winter weather.
Have Winter Tires Installed
There is no question that winter tires provide better traction on snow and ice than other types of tires. They are made of a softer rubber compound that stays pliable in cold weather and has deeper tread patterns to bite into the snow. If you don't have winter tires on your Chevy car, now is the time to get them. Or get your winter tires put on at our dealership. We offer seasonal tire changeovers! Visit our Chevrolet dealership and have your winter tires installed by our certified technicians. We have quality seasonal tires to fit your car, truck, or SUV.
Consider Installing New Windshield Wipers
When thinking about winter car maintenance, many forget about their windshield wipers. Don't be one of them! In winter, your wipers work overtime to clear away all the snow, ice, and salt that can build up on your windshield. Over time, this takes a toll on your wipers, and they may not work as well as they did during the summer or any other time of the year. So, consider replacing your windshield wipers before the cold and snowy weather sets in. It's a small investment that can make a big difference regarding your safety on the roads this winter.
