Has it been a while since your Mercedes-Benz received any maintenance? At this time of year, you don’t want to put off these important Mercedes-Benz service tasks.
Tire Check
When our streets become slippery, you’ll need to rely on your tires to help you stay safe. This is why they need to have deep treads in order to give you the best traction and stopping power.
If the treads aren’t deep enough, you should consider replacing your tires. Some people in our area also decide to put winter tires on their cars during the colder months.
Oil Change
Did you know that oil gets thicker as it gets colder? And when this happens, it can’t supply the moving parts in the engine with good lubrication. As a result, the engine doesn’t run as efficiently, which hinders performance and hurts your gas mileage.
Battery Test
When temperatures get really low, it’s not uncommon for batteries to struggle to get cars started. This is especially true if a battery is on the older side.
Having yours tested is vital, as it will let you know how much charge it has left. If it’s running low, you can get a new one.
Wiper Replacement
It won’t be long before you’re going to need to clear snow and sleet from your windshield, and your wipers have to be up for the challenge. If the rubber has gotten frayed, it’s time to get a new set.
Before the really harsh weather arrives, you need to be sure that your car will be able to deal with it. Contact the service center at Mercedes-Benz of Orland Park to schedule an appointment.
