The Importance of Fall Car Checks in Pleasant Prairie

In Pleasant Prairie, the transition from fall to winter comes with a range of weather conditions that can affect your car’s performance. From icy roads to freezing temperatures, being prepared is your best defense.

 

Dave’s Muffler’s Comprehensive Pre-Winter Checklist

Oil Change

Fall is a great time to get an oil change, especially if you haven’t done so recently. Colder temperatures require specific oil viscosities.

 

Brake Inspection

Your brakes are your most vital safety feature. A thorough inspection can pinpoint issues before they become major problems.

 

Tire Check

Ensure your tires are in good condition and properly inflated. Consider winter tires if you haven’t already.

 

Fluid Levels

Coolant, brake fluid, and windshield washer fluid should be checked and topped up.

 

Heating System

Ensure your car’s heater is working efficiently. This is crucial for both comfort and safety.

 

Battery Testing

Cold weather is hard on car batteries. A quick test can tell you if your battery is up to the challenge.

 

Wiper Blades

Replace worn-out wiper blades to ensure good visibility during rain and snow.

 

Emergency Kit

Have an emergency kit ready, equipped with essentials like blankets, food, water, and a first-aid kit.
