Many people know the importance of winterizing their home, but did you know you also need to winterize your car? You need to prepare your vehicle for the season with Mercedes-Benz service. Mercedes-Benz of Asheville is outlining why it’s so important to winterize your vehicle.
To Stay Safe
Between the decreased visibility and the icy streets, winter driving can get scary fast. When we winterize your vehicle, we’ll carefully inspect your vehicle to make sure that your vehicle can keep you safe on the road. These tasks include:
- Inspect your tires to ensure you have adequate traction (or replace them with winter tires)
- Test your brakes
- Replace your windshield wipers
- Top off your windshield wiper fluid
- Inspect your lightbulbs and replace any that aren’t working
To Ensure You’re Prepared for Anything
Winter driving can certainly be unpredictable. We’ll also test your vehicle to make sure that it’s prepared for the elements. The cold weather can be a strain on your vehicle, especially your battery, so we’ll start by testing your battery. We also recommend that you ensure you’re prepared for an emergency by packing an emergency kit with an ice scraper, small shovel, flashlight, blanket, and jumper cables.
To Prevent Damage
Maintenance is preventative first and foremost, and that’s also the case in the winter. Cold weather can thicken your oil and diminish its efficiency, so we’ll make sure you have the appropriate oil type. We’ll also make sure you have enough antifreeze to protect your engine.
