Winterizing Your Car: Best Practices

Genesis of West Knoxville is happy to provide a variety of ways to ready you and your vehicle for winter around Maryville, TN, including:

  • Fluid and filter changes. Specific engine oil should be used in colder temperatures to provide proper lubrication and cleaning. Likewise, fresh coolant can help maintain your vehicle's longevity by better regulating the engine's temperature.
  • Battery health and replacement. Cold weather makes the battery works harder than usual, and the last thing anyone wants is to be stranded somewhere in the winter. Let us inspect your battery and terminals to ensure it's providing and storing as much power as possible.
  • Hardware, like wiper blades, belts, and hoses. Wipers and washer fluid are more important than ever in winter, when mixed precipitation can make a mess on the roads. Inspecting belts and hoses for leaks and cracks is also a great way of catching problems early, ensuring your winter driving around Sevierville, TN, goes smoothly.
  • Tire rotation, alignment, or replacement. While we don't generally need snow tires, it's still a good idea to inspect your tires regularly and make sure you have the grip you need to stay safe this season.
