Get Your Brakes Checked

When it comes to driving in bad weather, you never know what you will encounter or what you will have to avoid. That is why it is essential to keep up with your brakes and have them checked regularly to ensure that you can do so effectively and safely if something happens and you need to stop. That is where we at Max Mile Car Care in Hallam PA come in. We offer quality and dependable brake service, inspection, and repairs for your vehicle, so you know that when the time comes, you will be safe and able to brake when needed. 

Get A Tire Inspection

When you are driving in bad weather, the chances of sliding, needing to avoid something, or hydroplaning is significantly increased. Your tires play a significant role in helping keep you safe during these unpredictable events. A new set of tires will have a deeper tread on them, allowing water to pass through the tire and help reduce hydroplaning. When your tire has fresh tread on it and is not smoothed down by normal wear and tear, it will have better traction with the road’s surface. This will help reduce the chances of sliding and help improve responsiveness when avoiding something on the road. Let Max Mile Car Care in Hallam PA help you stay safe while driving during bad weather with quality tire services or even a new set of tires.

Make An Emergency Kit

Now here is where you come in. One of our helpful tips for when driving in inclement weather is to pack and keep an emergency kit in your car at all times. You never know when you might need it. The essential items in an emergency kit are a flashlight, extra batteries, snacks, signaling devices such as a road flare, and potentially some kind of rope or scurrying device. Pack these in your vehicle to help with those unexpected tricky situations.
