‘Tis the season for winter weather to drop in at any moment. And that means we encourage you to get your vehicle prepped and ready for the upcoming season. This week we have put together a list of tips to help you have a healthy and successful season behind the wheel of your Mitsubishi. Worried that your Mitsubishi won’t make it through the winter?

We hope to see you soon, but first, let’s talk about winter tips! 

  • Swap out regular tires for winter tires. Snow or not, when temperatures fall below 45 degrees, winter tires are recommended. They’re made to give you better traction while turning or stopping on cold pavement.
  • Check your tire pressure weekly. Driving on underinflated tires can cause them to wear down prematurely and lose traction on icy or slippery surfaces. Your tires lose a pound of pressure with every 10-degree drop in temperature.
  • Always keep your fuel tank half full. During winter weather, it’s important to keep at least half a tank of fuel in the vehicle in the event of an emergency or if you get stuck in the snow and wait for assistance. 
  • Pack an emergency to-go kit. We encourage you to keep an extra coat, blanket, boots, gloves, and a hat inside your vehicle when the temperatures drop. We also recommend keeping a flashlight, first aid kit, and emergency contact information or AAA handy. 
  • Protect your windshield wipers. If you park outdoors, leave the wipers in the raised position to prevent them from freezing to the windshield. Never use your wiper blades to remove ice, snow, or frost from the windshield; use an ice scraper instead.
