What Happens to Your Car When Winter Hits Raleigh.

Let’s talk about some of the common problems that your vehicle endures when the coldest winter weather hits Raleigh.  For one thing, your coolant system may not be in the right proportion.  You may well have too much water and not enough antifreeze.  Harsh winter weather can also freeze the fluids in your radiator. 

Overtime your windshield wipers will suffer through harsh weather and become cracked or worn.  And remember to have plenty of wiper fluid.  When driving around make sure that you have the following checklist in your car…an ice scraper, jumper cables, a flashlight with fresh batteries, blankets, bottled water and dry food, and any and all medications that the family is taking.
