Winter-Ready Checklist for a Used Vehicle
Before buying a used vehicle for winter driving, AAA recommends checking:
| Check | What AAA recommends |
|---|---|
| Battery | Have it tested before the cold sets in; consider a replacement if it is more than three years old |
| Tires | At least 4/32 inch of tread for winter driving, pressure checked monthly and the spare checked too; consider winter tires for added traction in severe conditions |
| Wipers and washer fluid | Replace worn blades (most last about six months) and use a winter washer fluid that won’t freeze |
| Coolant | Make sure the coolant mixture is correct to prevent freezing |
