At Tri Rivers Chevrolet of Hastings, we know how harsh Minnesota winters can be. Snowy roads, icy mornings, and freezing temperatures require your vehicle to be in top condition to ensure safe and reliable travel. Here are our expert tips and Chevy service recommendations to prep your vehicle for the cold days ahead.
Battery Inspection and Maintenance
Batteries are particularly vulnerable to extreme cold, which can drain their efficiency and cause unexpected failures. Our technicians will test your battery’s charge, inspect connections, and ensure it has enough power to start even on subzero mornings.
Winter Tire Installation
Tires are your first defense against slippery roads. We’ll inspect tread depth and adjust air pressure to help you maintain control in icy conditions. If you’d like, we can also install winter tires on your vehicle so you can drive with full confidence.
Oil and Antifreeze Check
Cold weather impacts the consistency of vital fluids in your car’s systems. We’ll top off engine oil and antifreeze to ensure your engine runs smoothly and stays protected from freezing temperatures.
Wiper Blade and Washer Fluid Service
Visibility is critical when the snow starts falling. Our team will install winter wiper blades and fill your washer reservoir with freeze-resistant fluid, helping you maintain a clear view even in heavy snowfall.
Brake System Inspection
Of course, your brakes are essential for navigating icy roads as well. We’ll check brake pads, rotors, and fluid levels to ensure you can rely on your brake system during sudden winter stops.
