As the weather gets colder, your vehicle may begin to struggle to perform as it should. At Fox Grand Traverse Lincoln, we want to give you our favorite tips for keeping your vehicle running its best during the winter.

As many Traverse City drivers know, cold weather can be brutal on your car's battery. Exposure to subzero temperatures will reduce the cranking power of your battery, which will, in turn, increase the likelihood that your car will not start. Bringing in your vehicle to have its battery checked will give you added peace of mind and may help you avoid running late in the near future.

Everyone knows that you need to be able to see the road ahead clearly when driving. This can be more difficult in the winter due to ice and snow. Make sure you travel with a sturdy windshield scraper at all times. You may also want to replace your windshield wiper blades and fluid to make sure you can clear rain, sleet, or snow as it falls.
