Why Winter Service Is Important for Ohio Drivers

Your commute from Fremont to Toledo or another Ohio location gets trickier in the winter. Cold temperatures and slick road conditions test the resolve of your car. Winter service keeps Sandusky drivers safe while restoring their confidence in the vehicle when conditions turn south.

Our Ford-certified technicians in Fremont, OH specialize in winter service, working on the following vehicle systems and parts:

• Battery Check: If your battery is weak heading into winter, you'll want to know. Colder temperatures will worsen your battery condition, leading to starting failure. With a battery inspection and potential battery swap, Clyde drivers can confidently start their car this winter.
• Tire Check: Driving next to Lake Erie means there is plenty of Lake Effect snow that falls. Port Clinton drivers may want to equip their car with winter tires or snow tires. Advantage Ford Fremont will also check your tire tread depth and pressure, in addition to performing a tire rotation.
• Brake Check: Other forms of wintry precipitation can lead to slick roads. When it's icy or snowy, it takes longer to stop. Bellevue motorists will want their brakes checked. We'll service the brakes and repair or replace any worn out brake components.
• Wiper Blades: Tiffin drivers can shake off snow, freezing rain, and wintry precipitation with a fresh set of windshield wiper blades.
• Fluid Check: We'll check and replenish all your fluids. The most important fluid for winter is engine coolant. This prevents the engine from freezing on Fostoria drivers. We'll also conduct an oil change so your oil level is high for the winter.
• Lights & Heating System Check: It's important for Norwalk drivers to see and be seen on Ohio roads. Working lights while driving in the winter go a long way. We'll check all exterior lights and your electrical system. It also helps to stay warm, which is why we'll inspect your heating system and defroster.
