Winter weather can be incredibly harsh on your vehicle, leading to a host of potential issues if your car isn't properly prepared. Icy temperatures, snow, sleet, and road salt can all take their toll, which is why preventative maintenance at the start of the season is so critical. At Miracle Motor Mart, our certified technicians provide the comprehensive winter auto repair service your car needs to run safely and reliably, no matter how low the temperature drops.
The Importance of Winter Car Maintenance
During the colder months, your vehicle has to work significantly harder to perform at its best. Freezing temperatures can drastically affect your battery life, thicken engine oil, lower tire pressure, and negatively impact a variety of other critical components. By getting a winter tune-up before the worst of the season hits, you can ensure your car is fully prepared to handle these challenges. Some of the key benefits of timely winter maintenance include:
- Greatly improved vehicle safety and reliability in adverse driving conditions
- Better fuel efficiency, even on short trips or when idling to warm up
- Early detection and prevention of potential issues before they lead to a breakdown
- Extending the overall lifespan and performance of your vehicle's most important parts
The Winter Car Care Checklist
So what exactly should a comprehensive winter service for your vehicle include? At Miracle Motor Mart, our winter tune-up package covers all of the essentials:
Oil and Filter Change
As the temperature drops, engine oil tends to flow much more slowly, which can put added strain on your engine. Switching to a winter-grade oil and installing a fresh filter will keep things running smoothly, even on the coldest of days.
Tire Inspection, Rotation, and Pressure Check
Proper tire inflation and sufficient tread depth are absolutely crucial for maintaining safe traction on wet, snowy, or icy roads. Our expert technicians will carefully inspect all four tires, check and adjust air pressure if needed, and rotate the tires to promote even wear.
Full Brake System Check
When driving in wintery conditions, your brakes need to be in peak condition to ensure you can stop quickly and safely every time. We'll thoroughly inspect the brake pads, rotors, drums, and fluid levels to verify every component is working properly in Lancaster, OH, and the surrounding areas.
Battery Test and Charging System Inspection
Did you know that car batteries can lose up to 50 percent of their starting power in extremely low temperatures? We'll conduct a full battery test and inspect the charging system to make sure you won't get stuck with a dead battery when you need your car most.
Antifreeze Fill-Up and Cooling System Inspection
Having the proper ratio of high-quality antifreeze to water is essential for preventing your engine from freezing up when the mercury drops. We'll check your coolant levels, top off if necessary, and inspect the entire cooling system for leaks or damage.
Wiper Blade Replacement
Driving in heavy snow or sleet is hard enough - don't let worn-out wiper blades make it even more stressful. If your blades are leaving streaks or smears on the windshield, we'll replace them with a fresh set that can stand up to winter precipitation in Westerville.
OEM Parts and Accessories
Do you want to do the job yourself? We'll give you the tools you need to ensure that your vehicle remains in top condition. We have interior parts, exterior parts, and accessories that can be shipped to your doorstep in Delaware. Our OEM parts and accessories are yours when you need them.
