Winter is coming to Fort Wayne, and that means it's time to make sure your Jaguar is prepared to handle the ice, snow and cold temperatures ahead.
One of the most important steps is switching to a dedicated set of winter tires. Winter tires are specially engineered to provide optimal traction and handling in snowy, icy conditions when temperatures drop below 45°F. Getting your winter tires put on in fall before the first snow flies will ensure your Jaguar has maximum grip to keep you safe all winter.
Antifreeze is another key part of winter readiness. Checking your coolant levels and topping up with the proper antifreeze for your Jaguar will prevent damaging freezes and keep your engine running smoothly through the coldest months. It's a simple but crucial maintenance item.
Some other winter prep tasks to consider:
- Replace your wiper blades and fill your wiper fluid reservoir with winter washer fluid
- Have your battery tested to verify it can handle cold cranking all season
- Put together an emergency kit with a blanket, flashlight, shovel and other essentials
