The snowy course of winter is well under way, with the effects on the roads already being felt to a pretty significant degree after a fresh snow fall and when the cold fronts come in. If you’ve been planning for this weather in advance and made preparations with your Kia model beforehand, the team here at Bald Hill Kia commends you for being proactive. But there is still plenty of time to make the necessary adjustments! We’re happy to provide you some key winter service tips to keep in mind this season.
Checking your vehicle’s batteries and having the antifreeze in your vehicle flushed and replenished are two important tasks to note, as both of these steps ensure your Kia Optima or Sportage is healthy for the winter and reliable when you need it to be. Tires are a major factor in the snow as well, and it never hurts to have your vehicle’s tires rotated, their pressure checked and have winter tires installed for more effective gripping of the roads. Having your vehicle’s brakes inspected for good measure and preparing an emergency kit for the backseat before traveling are two advantageous pieces of advice to keep in mind as well.
Please connect with us here at Bald Hill Kia to learn more ways in which you can ensure your vehicle is set up for success this winter, and plan on stopping down to our service center to have this work done by a team of factory-trained technicians!
