How to Prepare Your Kia for Winter?

Is It Necessary to Winterize a Car?

Driving in winter is as risky as stepping out without a jacket on a cold winter morning. Therefore, just like you, your Kia should also be prepared to deal with the cold weather. Weather driving conditions are hazardous due to factors such as ice and snow on the road. So, it’s always better to keep your Kia ready for all the challenges on the road. Several drivers at our dealership, Garden Grove Kia, ask us if it is necessary to winterize a car or not. Our team of professionals at Garden Grove, CA, believes that preparing your vehicle for winter is essential. Moreover, they have some tips for you to winterize your Kia without any hassle.

Tips to Winterize Your Kia

  • Install winter wipers as they are designed to wipe off snow and ice from the windshield with ease.
  • Switch to winter tires as they are designed to have better traction and grip on winter roads.
  • Check your tire pressure regularly, as every 10-degree change in the temperature could mean a loss or gain of air pressure.
  • Always keep your washer fluid full by combining it with some washer fluid antifreeze. Washer fluid works perfectly at lower temperatures when you add antifreeze to it.
  • Ensure that your rear window defroster is in working condition. If the defroster is not working properly, it may lead to unsafe driving conditions as you will not get a good view of what is behind you.
  • Get your vehicle checked at a service center.
