What are the Kia Electrified Models?

Winter in the Keene area can be rough. The colder months of the year sometimes feel like they have it out for New Hampshire, Vermont, and Massachusetts drivers with the litany of hazards and unique driving challenges that the weather brings. Of course, we're used to it here at Fairfield Kia, so we know what to expect and how to help our community members prep their vehicles for what's to come. A little winter service can do wonders when it comes to helping you enjoy an easier, safer winter driving experience, so we encourage you to reach out to us for winter service.

Tire Pressure

The air pressure in your tires drops when the temperature outside grows colder, so it's important to check your air pressure regularly on a weekly basis. Why? Low tire pressure can be a one-two punch that damages your tires and hurts your fuel efficiency.

Winter Tires

Winter tires are like snow boots for your car. They're softer in cold weather, which makes them more flexible and better at gaining traction. They also have tread patterns designed specifically for ice and snow to help you tackle wintry roads around Brattleboro, VT.

Wiper Blades and Washer Fluid

Make sure your wiper blades are in good shape. You'll need them when winter inevitably finds all sorts of things to coat your windshield with as you drive. Between snow, sleet, and grime, winter weather is arguably the most overeager when it comes to blinding you when you're trying to drive. Replace worn wiper blades and swap out your windshield fluid for a winter formula to get ahead of potential issues.

Battery Check

Many drivers around Dover, VT and Greenfield, MA are all too familiar with the experience of waking up on a frigid morning to a car that won't start. It's usually the battery's fault, and that's because cold weather weakens your car battery. If your battery is already weak, it might give up on you in winter. We can test it for you and replace it if necessary.

Be safe out there, and please let our Kia service center know when you'd like to come in for professional winter service. We look forward to serving you!
