Winter Weather Checklist

Posted on September 15, 2010

For those of us who experience frozen winters, we know how important it is weatherproof our cars. We at Auto Shippers want to supply you with a quick list of reminders – cold weather is approaching faster than most of us want to admit.

Carjunky.com offers a great list of things to remember as winter approaches. Some of these include the following:
1. Engine problems – If you’re having them now, they will only get worse as the temperature drops. Have them fixed now before the small glitches grow into larger problems.
2. Windshield Wipers – Worn out wipers only promote scratching from weather grit.
3. Tires – Get them filled, and check the rubber. If they are worn, we recommend getting a new set as soon as possible.
4. In Case of Emergency – Always carry gloves, a flashlight, jumper cables, a winter coat, an ice scraper, a shovel if possible and tire chains. Even if you don’t run into car trouble, you may encounter others who are. These will help you be prepared in any situation.

Happy winter-proofing!
