How Winter Tires Stop the Slide

SAFE DRIVING DURING THE WINTER MONTHS

The cold temperatures are upon us; which can mean snow and ice.   You can easily go about your business on a cold winter day worry-free, stress-free and hassle-free if you have the right equipment for your car. 

The ticket to safe travel is ensuring that you have the proper tires on your car.  Winter tires are specifically designed to cope with low temps and snow- or ice-covered pavement.  These tires combine flexible rubber compounds with small tread blocks and hundreds of small cuts (called “sipes”) in the tread itself, which causes the tire to constantly flex and bite at the road, giving you better traction and keeping you safe while driving across frozen roads.

Tires don’t just protect you from snow but are designed to operate effectively and provide maximum cornering, acceleration and braking traction in a wide range of weather conditions.  

So, before as you head out on the road ensure that your vehicle has winter tires on them to keep you and your family safe from the slippery roads from the snow and ice.  Stop in or make your appointment today by calling Audia Chevrolet at 845-677-3406 or, online at audiamotors.com and ask about their 30-day Tire Match Guarantee www.audiamotors.com.

Remember Last Winter?

 

Is Your Car Ready?

 

 

Unless you spent last winter on a warm tropical island, the memory of last winter is a good lesson of just how cruel Mother Nature can be.  Before long, winter will once again be upon us.  As a result of last winter's harsh weather there was a significant increase of winter related car problems.  Many of these problems were due to lack of proper vehicle maintenance and may have been avoided.  Also, the cold, ice, snow, salt and wind can have damaging effects on your vehicle.

The Best insurance against a breakdown or a no start on a cold winter day is preventive maintenance.  And the best time to have your car checked out for the winter is now.  some of the more critical items to inspect are:  The battery, antifreeze, heater, hoses, belts, defroster, tires, fluids, wipers, lights, brakes, suspension and filters.  Also, ensure your car is up to date with all required maintenance services.

Be prepared this winter and ensure you have the proper tires on your vehicles.
