?10 Ways to Prepare Your Vehicle for the Winter
Due to unpredictable weather, precipitation, and low temperatures, winter is one of the riskiest times of the year to drive around Milford. The best way to stay safe is to winterize your vehicle for inclement weather. At Napoli Kia, we advise our customers on how they can winterize their cars. Here are ten ways we can help you winterize your vehicle.
1. Oil Change
An oil change is essential for keeping the engine in good working condition throughout the winter season.
2. Battery Test
Our service technicians will examine your battery to ensure it can keep a charge. Plus, they can remove any battery corrosion from the terminals or replace it if it has a low electrical charge.
3. Tire Inspection
Our technicians can check your tires to ensure they have the proper air pressure so you can drive around Milford safely during the winter.
4. Check Vehicle Lights
It is crucial to check the exterior and interior light bulbs and replace any dull ones.
5. Check the Antifreeze/Coolant
We can check the antifreeze/coolant level and refill it if necessary.
6. Belts and Hoses
Our technicians will examine your car's belts and hoses as part of a general inspection to help you avoid a breakdown during the cold winter months.
7. Windshield Wipers
New windshield wiper blades can help you see better as you drive around Milford in the snow.
8. Snow Tires
With the heavy accumulation of snow in Milford, it's important to put snow tires or tough all-season tires on your vehicle.
9. Inspect the Safety Features
Our technicians can inspect your vehicle's safety features to ensure they are working to keep you safe on the road.
10. Prepare an Emergency Kit
Keep an emergency kit in your vehicle with first aid supplies, blankets, non-perishable foods, and water.
