Tyres
Tyres, in any
weather, are essential in keeping you safe on the roads and bringing your
vehicle to a stop when you need to brake and stop quickly. Worn tyres will have
a negative effect on your stopping distance & general vehicle handling in
corners. Damaged tyres could result in a tyre rapidly deflating or even a blow-out.
Part of our free vehicle safety checks, include an inspection of your tyres
overall condition, tread depth and tyre pressure.
Battery
Battery failure can happen at any time of year. If the battery power is drained it no longer has the power necessary to make the car start. In addition to this, the increased number of electrical components inside the car such as phone charges as well as using heating and lights in winter puts additional strain on the battery. It's worth noting, batteries naturally lose their charging capability over time so It's best to have them checked before you find your vehicle won't start in the morning.
Wiper blades, windscreen system and screen wash levels
The UK weather can be changeable at best of times, in winter months it pays to ensure your windscreen wipers are functioning correctly. Our free safety checks include inspecting your wiper blades are free of splits and damage, ensuring your windscreen is cleared correctly. Our technicians also check the operation of your windscreen wash system.
Light Bulbs
Making sure your vehicle's lights are working correctly is critical for your own safety and other road users, as it allows you to be able to see and help others to see you, day & night in wintery conditions. It is worth noting, having faulty or damaged light bulbs is illegal. We check them to ensure all light bulbs are functioning correctly.
