Prepare Your Toyota Crown for Winter Now

Though it’s not officially winter yet, the temperature has already started to drop. Your winter coats and gloves have already started making an appearance. Before long, Grand Rapids residents will be in the throes of winter, which is why you should prepare your vehicle now. 

Waiting too long to prepare your vehicle for the winter season can lead to a breakdown on the side of the road. When it’s cold out, that’s the kind of situation you want to avoid. 

Scheduling winter prep services for your Toyota Crown is made easy with Toyota of Grand Rapids. Here’s what you need to know. 

What Kind of Maintenance Services Do You Need to Prepare for the Winter Season? 

As we approach the winter season, you may be wondering what kind of auto maintenance services you need for your Crown. 

While it’s recommended that you take care of any existing issues, there are a few common services you should focus on to get you through the winter season. Here they are: 

• Upgrading to winter tires so they’re better equipped to handle slippery roads, or changing out old tires with poor traction
• Getting an oil change 
• Swapping your current windshield wipers for new ones
• Getting your brakes checked and repaired if necessary
• Getting a new battery for your car or making sure it’s fully charged
• Getting your exhaust system examined and repaired if necessary
• Getting your headlamps checked and replacing the bulbs so you have greater visibility on the road

With these maintenance services, you can ensure that your Crown will be in tip-top shape for the cooler temps to come.
