Winter Tire Services

Hampton, VA drivers should speak with our service technicians concerning their tires. Tires are one of the most important aspects of a vehicle, and they need extra help during the winter months. The drop in temperatures and icy roads can have harmful effects on your wheels, but we can lend a hand.

Here are common services we can tackle regarding tires:

  • Tire Rotations
  • Wheel Alignments
  • Tread Inspections
  • Pressure Checks
  • Winter Wheel Replacements

Staying on top of the pressure in the tires is critical as the low temperature can cause them to drop. Low tire pressure can eventually cause damage to the rims or other wheel components. It’s also best to switch out regular tires with a winter set. Winter tires are made to handle snow, ice, and sleet with better traction. Our team can swap your set out for winter wheels and back again when the season calls for it.

Battery Inspections

A car battery is very temperamental, and sudden weather changes can drain it quicker than normal. Cold weather will strain the battery, causing it to work extra hard to produce the power your car needs to function. Because of this, it can die or deplete at an alarming rate.

Our technicians can check your battery’s power levels to make sure everything is okay. We’ll let you know when it’s best to buy a new one and help you find a suitable replacement battery for the colder months.

Heater Repairs

Driving around in a cold car due to a broken or malfunctioning heater can be miserable. Have our technicians near Williamsburg, VA inspect the heater and make sure it’s working correctly. We have the parts and tools to keep the heat flowing throughout your car so you can stay comfy!

Defroster & Wiper Blades

Visibility is just as important as tire care, and the defroster and windshield wiper blades can be a lifesaver! When it starts to snow or rain Yorktown, VA, drivers need a functioning wiper blade to keep their windshield clear. If the blade is cracked or leaving streaks, we’ll replace it with no problem.

As for the defroster, our team will check it out and address any issues hindering its function. The defroster helps during fog or when ice and snow build up around the windshield. By allowing our team to check these areas, drivers can confidently maneuver through the winter months.

Oil Changes

Like the battery, the oil in a car can be affected by the weather. During colder months, it will slow down as it flows. This causes the engine to overwork to meet the power demands. The oil depletes and eventually runs out, which is another issue that can harm the engine. Bring the car in for frequent oil checks and changes to stay ahead.
