Understanding the Heart of Your Car: The Essential Role of Filters
August 27, 2024
As the leaves change and temperatures drop, it’s time to prepare your vehicle for the challenges of the fall and winter seasons. At Christian’s Automotive, we understand that ensuring your car is ready for these conditions is crucial for safe and reliable travel. Here’s how we can help you keep your vehicle in the best condition and what services you should consider for seasonal maintenance.
1. Check Your Tires
The wet and sometimes icy roads of fall and winter demand excellent tire performance. With Goodyear’s current promotion, you can receive up to $200 back on select tires when using your Goodyear Credit Card. This is the perfect opportunity to ensure your vehicle has the traction needed to handle slippery conditions confidently. Also, check your tire pressure. Temperature changes can reduce your air pressure in the tire.
2. Inspect Your Brakes
Your brakes are your vehicle’s most vital safety feature, especially during fall and winter when stopping distances increase due to adverse weather conditions. Take advantage of NAPA Brakes’ offer to get up to $50 back on qualifying brake installations. Ensure your brakes are in optimal condition to keep you and your family safe on the road.
3. Evaluate Your Suspension
A well-maintained suspension system improves vehicle handling and comfort, which is particularly important on roads that can be affected by weather changes. Our ASE-certified technicians are experts in diagnosing and repairing suspension issues, ensuring a smooth and safe ride throughout the season.

Tips for Maintaining Performance in Cold Weather
- Battery Check: Cold temperatures can affect your battery’s ability to start your car. Have it tested and replaced if necessary to avoid unexpected breakdowns.
