The fluctuating and freezing temperatures in winter can take a toll on your Volvo car, even if there is no rain or snow. As the harsh climatic conditions approach, it is now the ideal time to service your vehicle. Here is a list of winter services our dealership in Lynnwood recommends to prepare your vehicle for the looming winter season.
Switch to Winter Tires
Since tires are vital for your safety while driving in winter conditions, we advise you to invest in genuine winter tires to prevent skidding. We can help install winter-season tires with better control, traction, and short braking distance. It will be helpful to change to the dedicated Volvo winter tires to prepare the vehicle for the harsh winter in the Seattle-Tacoma area.
Car Battery Checks
Most car batteries tend to become faulty during winter. So, bring your car to our dealership to check the battery for corrosion. Our technicians will inspect it and recommend if it needs maintenance or replacement.
Buy Winter Windshield Wipers
Although you may hardly use windshield wipers in Lynnwood, it’s essential to be prepared for any eventuality. Replace old and cracked wiper blades for enhanced efficiency.
Top Off Oil and Fluids
Precipitation during winter degrades engine oil and brake fluids. We recommend that you get fresh fluids and oils for the cold weather. Using winter washer fluid is vital, as other options are prone to freezing.
Brake Assessment
A faulty braking system is risky, mainly during the winter when roads are slick. If you notice any problems with your Volvo, bring it to our service center in Lynnwood for a professional inspection.
