Why Winter Preparation is Essential

Winter in St. Louis can be unpredictable—icy roads, cold temperatures, and even snowstorms can all take a toll on your vehicle. At Car-X Tire & Auto, we know that proper winter preparation can keep you safe and save you from costly repairs.

Essential Winter Car Prep Steps

Tire Care

Winter tires are essential. Check tread, pressure, and rotate tires for even wear.

Preparing Fluids and Battery for Winter

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.

Winter Emergency Kit Essentials

Pack an emergency kit including items such as a blanket, ice scraper, flashlight, and extra fluids. Being prepared can make a huge difference during unexpected delays.
