TECH TIPS FOR THE HOLIDAYS
Our Pep Boys techs share seasonal tips to keep your holiday drives smooth and stress-free.
YOUR HOLIDAY CAR CARE CHECKLIST
The holidays are busy enough — the last thing you need is car trouble when you’re shopping, visiting family, or seeing the lights. Make an appointment today and check one big thing off your to-do list.
Brakes
Listen for squeaks, grinding, or a longer stopping distance — and have your brake pads checked before cold weather sets in.
Battery
Cold temps can weaken your battery. Have it tested to avoid a no-start surprise — and consider replacing it if it’s three years or older.
Tires
Check for uneven wear, and make sure tire pressure matches the door sticker. Consider winter or all-season tires for better traction.
Heating
A working heater isn’t just for comfort — it helps defrost windows and maintain visibility. Make sure the system blows warm air quickly.
Oil
Cold starts are tough on engines. Fresh oil helps your car run smoothly and can help prevent damage from thickened winter oil.
Headlights
Shorter days mean more night driving. Replace dim or burned-out bulbs and clean your lenses for maximum visibility.
