Norman Chrysler Jeep Dodge Prepares Car Drivers for Upcoming Wintery Weather

 

Auto Repair and Maintenance is vital for drivers facing the Winter Weather Oklahoma has in store.

Whether the recent weather feels like winter or not, winter is here, and the cold weather is coming for Norman, Oklahoma drivers in need of Car Service. Don’t wait for a hard snow or icefall to consider safe driving.

The best time to prepare for driving in winter weather is before winter weather hits. Staying safe on the Oklahoma back country roads during winter weather require both knowledge of how to drive on snow or ice and proper car maintenance.

Take your car in for a tune up at Norman Chrysler Jeep Dodge before Winter Weather hits the Oklahoma roadways. Your Norman OK Auto Repair mechanic can check the functionality of your heater and defrost system, among other routine maintenance checks. New windshield wipers and clean, clear headlamps will go a long way in keeping you safe while driving in snow or ice. Replacing your windshield wiper blades is an inexpensive fix, and something you can easily do at home. Test your wipers by running them after spraying your windshield with cleaner. If the wipers don’t clear your windshield, it’s time for new ones. It’s as easy as that.

Be prepared on the forecast before you leave your driveway. Knowledge is the best form of preparedness; that’s why your Norman Car Repair Department knows drivers will want to check the weather before heading out and so you’ll know what to expect, and what you may need to take with you. Be sure you’ve got an ice scraper and de-icer handy in your vehicle. If you’re taking a long road-trip, and may encounter winter weather along the way there’s no such thing as being too prepared. Pack an emergency kit complete with rope or chain, booster cables, a first aid kit, blankets as well as a few snacks and bottled water, just in case.

Drive safely on snow and ice; know the basics: First and most importantly, give yourself plenty of extra time to get where you’re going and take it slow. The faster you drives, the harder it is for the tires on your car to gain traction on the snow or ice. Always use your headlights, and never use cruise control. Leave extra room between you and the vehicles in front of you. If you find yourself sliding, turn your steering wheel the direction your car is sliding or spinning and pump your brakes.
