Getting your car ready for winter

Having a car is a necessity for most people. You count on it to get you to work, to school, to shopping, and all the other things you do every day. Servicing your car is part of responsible auto ownership and it just makes good sense. No one wants to be stuck on the side of the road with a breakdown that should never happen. Another important part of auto ownership is having the necessary insurance. Rasor Insurance in Celina, TX is the local independent insurance agent that you can count on to make sure you comply with Texas insurance law. 

Getting your car ready for winter is an important part of vehicle maintenance. If you are into DIY you can do many of these things yourself but if you prefer, you can take your car in for an oil change and get most things taken care of. 

Check your battery

You can buy a battery checker yourself or you can have it checked when you get your oil change. Nothing is worse than going out in the cold and having your ar refuse to turn over. 

Fill your window wash

In the winter with salt and sand on the roads, the chance of your windshield getting dirty is greater. It is always best to have your window washed filled to the top. Make sure your wipers are good while you are at it. 

Check your antifreeze

Making sure that you have adequate coolant is important when you will be calling on your car to keep you warm and toasty often. 

Check your tires

Check to make sure your tires still have adequate tread to grip the road properly and check tire pressure. Be sure you have your spare in your trunk and your jack. 

Put together a winter safety kit

Make sure that if you break down in the cold you are prepared with a warm blanket, hat, and gloves.
