Winter Preparation for Your Vehicle
You'll enjoy winter in Sylvania no matter how cold it gets with a little seasonal preparation for your Chevrolet. At Dave White Chevrolet, your safety is our priority, and we're here to assist you with timely tire installation and a thorough check of your engine to make sure you're driving with confidence no matter what the weather brings.
Battery Checks
An overall engine inspection that also checks your battery strength is a vital part of any winter car preparation. A cold morning around Maumee, OH is all it takes for a weak battery to fail when you try to start your engine. In addition to testing your battery, your technician will check hoses, gaskets, belts and wires for signs of trouble and top up your antifreeze and other vital engine fluids.
Winter Tires
If there's ice or snow on the roads of Bedford, you'll be glad for the superior traction of winter tires. They differ from summer and all-seasons, offering a more aggressive tread pattern and a chemical composition that keeps them from stiffening in freezing temperatures. If you choose to keep all-season tires on your Perrysburg vehicle through the winter, your technician can rotate them and check the pressure so that you can continue to drive as safely as possible no matter the weather.
Heater and Wipers
You won't have a very comfortable ride through Toledo if your heater's malfunctioning or your wipers refuse to clear the windshield. Your technician can inspect your heater and install a fresh pair of wiper blades capable of sweeping away the worst of the precipitation as part of your winter vehicle readiness visit.
Emergency Preparation
No preparation is complete without adding an emergency kit to your vehicle that's tailored for winter driving. If you get stuck in the snow in Sylvania, you'll be glad to have things like a flashlight and extra batteries, a folding shovel, a warm winter blanket, jumper cables, duct tape, gloves, snacks and some tools.
