Winter can take a toll on any vehicle. Before the temperatures drop, we recommend visiting our Mazda service center to ensure your car is prepared for cold weather. Here are the most important service tasks to take care of before winter arrives.
Tire Tread
If you want to make sure you remain on the road and in control, you’ll want to make sure your tires are prepared. Check to ensure your tire tread is at the proper depth so that your tires are able to grip slippery surfaces.
Here at Peruzzi Mazda, we can check your tire tread depth and even get your Mazda outfitted with brand-new winter tires, which are specifically designed for icy weather.
Fluid Levels and Condition
One of our recommended winter must-haves is anti-freeze. True to its name, this liquid prevents the water in your cooling system from freezing when the temperatures drop. Anti-freeze is concentrated and should be diluted with water before use.
This is also a good time to check other essential fluids such as engine oil, power steering fluid, brake fluid, transmission fluid, and windshield washer fluid. The last thing you want is to break down in the cold!
Brake Pads and Rotors
Stopping on a slick road is tough enough, and an impaired brake system can only make that more difficult. Before winter, check to see if you need new brake pads or rotors. Signs you need replacement brake parts include vibrations or a squeaking sound when braking.
