Switch to Winter Tires
Winter tires come with improved traction and are therefore ideal for driving on wet or icy surfaces. Visit us in the Pittston area today so we can switch out your tires!
Install Snow Chains
Pennsylvania can get very snowy in the winters, so you may want to consider installing snow chains. Snow chains dig into snowy and frozen surfaces and help your wheels rotate freely.
Inspect Your Battery
Cold weather can be tough on your battery, so it’s important to bring your vehicle to our service center near Scranton so we can inspect it and replace it if it is old or not holding a charge properly.
Prepare an Emergency Kit
Unexpected breakdowns can happen, and it’s important to be prepared in case they do. Make sure to keep an emergency kit in your car with supplies such as blankets, food, water, phone chargers, flashlights, and paper maps.
Check Your Antifreeze Mixture
Ensure that your coolant consists of a half and half mixture of antifreeze of water. This will prevent your coolant from freezing in the cold.
