When winter weather strikes Kansas, your Lincoln vehicle needs extra attention and care. At Olathe Lincoln in Olathe, KS, our factory-trained technicians understand the unique challenges that cold temperatures bring to your vehicle. Let's explore common winter issues and how our dedicated service team can help keep you safe and comfortable on the road.
Battery Concerns in Cold Weather
Cold temperatures can significantly impact your battery's performance. If you notice slow engine cranking or dashboard warning lights, it may indicate your battery needs attention. At Olathe Lincoln, we offer complementary battery checks to assess your battery's condition and help prevent unexpected failures during those frigid morning starts.
Tire Pressure Management
Temperature changes affect your tire pressure, with cold weather typically causing pressure drops. This can lead to decreased handling, reduced fuel efficiency, and uneven tire wear. Our service team provides complementary air pressure checks and adjustments to ensure your tires maintain optimal contact with winter roads.
Windshield Wiper Performance
Winter precipitation and road salt can quickly wear down wiper blades, leading to streaking and poor visibility. Our technicians can inspect your wipers for signs of wear and recommend appropriate replacements to maintain clear visibility during winter weather conditions.
