Winter is fast approaching – do you know where your antifreeze is? Antifreeze is pretty much a slam dunk whenever someone ponders what a car needs most to survive our sometimes snowy, sometimes frigid Eastern Seaboard winters, but truth be told there are plenty of other things you can do to ensure your Volkswagen Tiguan near Baltimore, MD makes it through the winter unscathed and ready to roll come spring.
Of equal importance to the presence and proper level of antifreeze is your vehicle’s battery. We all know the battery is the heart of every car, truck, SUV, and minivan on the road – no working battery, no working vehicle. Sometimes we tend to take batteries for granted, especially when it’s warm out, but when the leaves start to turn it’s a good time to visit Heritage Volkswagen Parkville and have your battery checked out. If yours has plenty of juice, we’ll let you know – and if you need a new battery, we’ll sell you one and install it for a competitive price and in no time at all.
Depending on how much driving you do in the winter and where exactly you do that driving, you may also want to invest in a set of snow tires. Even if your vehicle is currently outfitted with all-season tires, snow tires are a cut above when it comes to traction and durability. If you plan to do some off-roading in the winter wonderland, or are heading off to do some skiing, snow tires will definitely come in handy.
