Winterizing Your Car: St. Louis Edition

Why Winter Preparation is Essential

St. Louis winters are unpredictable, and proper preparation is crucial for safety and preventing costly repairs.

Essential Winter Car Prep Steps

Winter Tire Preparation

Switching to winter tires or ensuring your current tires have adequate tread is critical. Check the tire pressure and consider a rotation to promote even wear.

Battery and Fluids

Cold weather can weaken your battery and thicken your oil. Have your battery tested and change your oil if needed. Also, verify that your antifreeze levels are correct to prevent engine overheating.

Winter Brake and Light Checks

Ensure your brakes are in top condition and your lights are working properly. Visibility is key during the shorter, darker winter days.

Emergency Kit

An emergency kit with essential items is crucial for winter delays.
