In particular, harsh weather can wear very much on a vehicle. When very cold or hot weather seasons hit in your local area, you should be prepared by getting your vehicle ready for these seasons. If you are not sure of the antifreeze's 50/50 ratio, you should also have that ratio tested at a mechanic or oil change facility. Not only is it important to have antifreeze in the vehicle, but if the improper ratio of antifreeze is present then the radiator will not work properly. Vehicles that experience cold weather should be filled with antifreeze before cold seasons.
Wipers should be replaced on a regular basis. It is recommended that wipers are replaced at least once every six months and maybe more often depending on the area in which you live. If you get plenty of rain and snowfall, wipers will wear down faster, and you will need to replace them on a more regular basis. Higher quality wipers last longer as well, so with higher quality wipers you may not need to get new ones as often.
The washer fluid on windshields should be checked regularly. If there is any type of stain on a windshield that needs to be washed off during driving, washer fluid must be present in order to use the vehicle's window washing feature.
Be sure to follow these safety guidelines in order to maintain a vehicle and keep it safe in the long run.
