Embrace Chilly Mornings And Ensure Your Car Starts Smoothly With TIRECRAFT

As a Canadian Car owner, it’s no surprise that starting your car on a chilly winter morning can be a daunting task. It can sometimes take a while or sometimes not start at all. As the temperature drops and cold mornings become the norm, ensuring your car starts smoothly is crucial for a stress-free winter driving experience. We understand the challenges that colder weather brings, and we’re here to help you embrace the winter season with confidence. Read on to discover how TIRECRAFT can ensure your car is ready to tackle the frosty mornings ahead.

Standard Maintenance And Inspections

Before the winter weather hits, make sure your vehicle has the proper maintenance done. Our skilled professionals will thoroughly assess every component, including brakes, fluids, and heating systems, to identify any potential issues. Addressing these concerns in time can prevent breakdowns and ensure your car runs smoothly even in the coldest temperatures.

Battery Check

Look for corroded cables or terminals. Even if it all looks well, get a professional opinion. Cold temperatures can take a toll on your car’s battery. Our technicians can assess your battery’s health and performance, providing you with peace of mind during winter. If a replacement is needed, we will provide you with all the options to make an informed decision.

Heating And Defrosting

Make sure the heater and defroster in your car work well for you to feel comfortable and see clearly while driving. Another aspect to check is your air conditioner as it helps the defroster work better.

Tires

As the seasons change, it is important to equip your vehicle with the right set of tires. Proper installation and maintenance of your winter tires are crucial for their effectiveness. Our team will ensure that your winter tires are mounted correctly, providing you with the best possible traction. We also offer tire maintenance services, including tire rotations and balancing, to extend the lifespan of your tires and enhance their overall performance.

Oil Check

During winters, the oil tends to thicken which affects the flow to the engine. Before winter, it is important to get the oil checked and replaced if necessary, so that you can experience a smooth drive.

Other parts of the vehicle should also be checked like the wiper blades, belts, hoses and more. This is why, it is very crucial to get your vehicle inspected before the cold hits. Embracing chilly mornings is easier when you know your vehicle is prepared to handle the challenges of winter.

At TIRECRAFT, we are dedicated to providing you with the products and services needed to ensure your car starts smoothly and runs reliably throughout the winter season. Visit your local dealership using the ‘Find a TIRECRAFT’ tool on our website today and let our experts help you gear up for winter with confidence.
