It's important to know how to prepare your car or truck for low temperatures. The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has some valuable tips on how to make your vehicle ready for winter:
- Make sure your car is in good working order. Schedule an inspection, if necessary.
- Do not forget to check the tires and have chains for traction on the ice, if you live in places with frequent snowfall.
- Replace windshield-wiper fluid with a wintertime mixture.
