Kentucky weather has clearly been uncertain the past couple years. Cold winds and temperature has caused many drivers to be more aware of keeping their vehicles in optimal operating performance. Reviewing all our past customer literature, we have listed below what seems to be most important to drivers for our type of weather. We have created a WINTER CAR CARE package that targets these components for only $79.99, giving you the best for your buck. We have also posted our cold weather video to help explain things further. Please let us know if we can answer any questions and you can always schedule for a Cold Weather Check Appointment.
