It won’t be long before the harsh weather arrives in Asheville, and if you’ll have to drive in it, you need to be sure your Mercedes-Benz is ready. Now could be the perfect time to upgrade these Mercedes-Benz parts before winter arrives.
Tires
Your tires are your vehicle’s first line of defense when roads get slippery, which is why they have to be in good condition. If the treads are shallow, you won’t be able to get the traction you need on icy or snowy roads, so you may want to invest in a new set. You might also want to think about putting on winter tires as well.
Brakes
Brakes go hand-in-hand with tires. Even if your tires are great, they won’t mean much if your braking system isn’t working as it should. If you’ve noticed that your brakes are squeaky or spongy, you may need to upgrade them before the roads become slippery.
Battery
Without a good battery, your car won’t be able to go anywhere. That's why you should have it tested to see what kind of charge it has left. Batteries don’t usually have a very long lifespan (typically around five years) so it may be time for a new one.
Windshield Wipers
When freezing rain and sleet start coming down, you'll need your windshield wipers to be in tip-top shape. If they’re not, your visibility will be affected, which can make driving dangerous.
