Don’t drive on empty! Bad weather can cause traffic delays and the last thing you want to do is run out of gas. We recommend keeping your gas tank at half full.
Prepare your car for winter weather*. Make certain your battery, wiper blades and other critical parts are ready. Be sure your fluids are topped off as well and always leave the house with a fully charged cell phone.
Have your tires checked. Make sure they are in good condition and filled to the proper pressure.
Know your vehicle. Review the sections of the owner’s manual that cover antilock brakes, traction control and four-or all wheel drive (if equipped). For easy access to your owner’s manual check out the myChevrolet app or myBuick app.
Stock your car. Sounds like a no brainer but us Texans don’t always think about things like this. Carry an ice scraper, flashlight, jumper cables, emergency flares, a blanket, and some bottled water might also prove helpful especially if you’re taking a road trip.

*On every maintenance visit to a Hewlett dealership your vehicle’s under hood fluids, tires and battery are checked to ensure that these are all set to their proper operating levels. This is a service we provide free of charge because we care about your safety and peace of mind!
