Leggat Chevrolet

While safety is an important consideration all year long, some maintenance and safety checks are necessary to adjust to the perils of winter driving. Getting your vehicle ready for the months ahead involves regular monitoring of fluids, windshield wipers, spark plugs, brakes, batteries and cables. While you can check these things on your own, you might want to take it in for a winter service just to be sure.

When it comes to professional vehicle service, Leggat Chevrolet Toronto offers quality auto services at affordable prices.

You can get all the winter maintenance essentials covered for any  Chevrolet cars and Chevy trucks at Leggat Chevrolet in Etobicoke. Here are some things to look at when winterizing your vehicle:

1. Engine oil: It affects the life of the vehicle’s engine. Engine oil minimizes friction and helps disperse the generated heat. It is, thus, necessary to change the engine oil and filter regularly.

2. Windshield Wipers: The biggest danger in driving during winter is being unable to see properly. The wipers should be able to remove snow from the window. If they leave streaks or make visibility worse, you will need to replace them. Also, have enough windshield fluid to enhance visibility. 

3. Tires: Tires help grip the vehicle to the road. Tread depth and tire pressure should be checked thoroughly for the upcoming winter weather.

4. Battery: Car battery failures are more frequent during the colder months. Battery and alternator checks are important for your new or used Chevrolet.

5. Brakes: Check the brake pads, brake discs and brake fluid level to ensure they are working properly.

6. Lights: Lights are vital for safe driving during foggy weather and during the evening. Check all internal and external car lights including: headlights, indicators, and dashboard.
