Batteries in Ohio work in hot summers and sub-zero winters. While summer heat causes faster battery decline, cold weather causes sluggish performance. A battery inspection with testing can prevent the hassles of getting stranded this winter when you need reliable transportation the most.
Be ready for safe and comfortable winter driving by checking the HVAC system, including the heater, defroster, and seat/steering wheel warmers.
Winter maintenance should include a thorough tire inspection to check for irregular wear, too little tread depth, and improper inflation. Many Honda owners install winter tires for optimum traction, braking, and safety on slick roads.
Winter maintenance should include a 4-wheel brake inspection, including the pads, rotors, fluid, calipers, and lines.
Youāll need good wiper blades to clear the windshield quickly for visibility and safety this winter. Replace old wiper blades with rubber damage, perform poorly by leaving heavy streaks/film/haze, or more than a year old.
Antifreeze needs to be in good condition to prevent water from freezing within the engine cooling system. Winter maintenance should include a coolant fluid/antifreeze check, top off to capacity, and exchange service if at the recommended interval.
Prepare for anything this winter with a roadside emergency safety kit. Contact us for assistance ordering a genuine OEM kit from the accessories department.
Glass expansion and contraction due to cabin heating and sub-zero ambient temperatures cause smaller glass cracks to grow larger. We recommend checking all glass and getting repairs as needed to prevent a more costly replacement later.
