With the winter cold arriving in Illinois in only a few short weeks, ProAuto have stated on their blog that they want all drivers to be fully prepared for what promises to be an especially difficult season this year. They offer an 8-step guide on how to prepare a vehicle for winter, intended to keep the whole family safe on long-distance drives.
Illinois drivers and especially those in the Chicago area are particularly prone to wintertime mishaps on the road due to lake effect winds and fast-changing weather conditions. In 2011, a blizzard stranded thousands on the interstate outside of Chicago, and left over 100,000 homes without power, hammering home the importance of preparedness.
The new guide from ProAuto provides an overview of what a motorist might take with them to prepare for a situation such as the 2011 blizzard, though the kit they recommend would also be helpful in a normal winter weather situation. Among other things, they list jumper cables, a small shovel, and road flares as must-have items this winter.
Other guidance points to car maintenance essentials - namely the tires, battery, and heating, all of which are prone to failure during extreme winter conditions. Replacing summer tires with a set of high-grip snow tires, changing wiper blades, and checking fluid levels are all maintenance tasks they recommend.
The author writes, “Regular maintenance is key to protecting your car during the tough winter months. Make sure to see your mechanic regularly and tackle these problems before they get out of hand. If you are proactive with maintaining your car, it will save you both time and money in the long run.”
This advice comes from the expert team at ProAuto, who have been providing vehicle maintenance services to residents of Morton Grove, Glencoe, Golf, Skokie, Northfield, and the surrounding areas for many years.
