Preparing Your Vehicle for Winter in Waterloo, IA
We organized a winter preparation maintenance plan at Dan Deery Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram Fiat perfect for promoting peak vehicle reliability as winter weather arrives. We know that Iowa's climate with hot summers and cold winters is a burden for some components that support primary systems. By maintaining these components before winter, you can advance your vehicle's reliable performance when sub-zero temperatures arrive. Here is a checklist with the most crucial winter preparation maintenance items to advance reliable performance as cold weather comes in Waterloo, IA.
Heating System and Accessory Inspection
You probably forgot about the heater and comfort heating amenities this summer, but you will want to ensure that they work correctly before cold weather arrives. A heating system inspection that confirms the heater and defroster work properly will verify their readiness and give you peace of mind to stay warm this winter. It is also a good idea to inspect comfort heating amenities, such as steering wheel and seat warmers, to ensure that they are ready for winter.
Battery Inspection with Testing
Few components are as vital to vehicle reliability as the battery. With a relatively short life affected by extreme temperatures, it is an excellent decision to have the battery inspected, including electrical testing, to confirm that it is at peak performance before winter.
Coolant Fluid/Antifreeze Inspection and Exchange
Winter's sub-zero temperatures demand that antifreeze is in good condition to prevent water from freezing inside the engine, expanding, and causing damage.
Windshield Wiper Fluid to Winter Blend
Winter blend windshield wiper fluid is specifically designed to enhance windshield clearing in icy conditions. If you want to improve how your wiper fluid can melt ice and snow, be sure to install winter blend wiper fluid.
Roadside Safety Kit
Even though it is a good idea to carry a roadside safety kit, the stakes are raised in sub-zero temperatures with slippery road conditions. Be sure to have a blanket, bandages, motor oil, and anything else that you might personally need in the event of trouble.
