Happy January! Can you believe that we’re almost already done with the first month of 2021? We hardly can but there is still some time left in the winter season and we want to help have a successful and safe winter season. Below, you’ll find a few seasonal life hacks that will help you out this season whether you’re staying in the area or you’re planning on traveling. We hope you’ll put them to good use and hurry in to see our team if you\’re ready to upgrade into a brand new Kia! 

Pack an emergency kit

• Being prepared for a variety of situations is important. And it’s a great idea to always be prepared for whatever whenever that’s why we encourage you to pack an emergency kit. This kit should include an extra coat, warm hat, gloves, and extra socks in your vehicle. It’s a good idea to keep a blanket, phone charger, flashlight, bottle of water, and a small non perishable snack on board as well. 

Foggy windows are a thing of the past 

• When temperatures start to drop, foggy windows are no stranger to your vehicle. Foggy windows can lead to potentially dangerous situations and it’s important to defog your windows before heading out for the day. An easy way to defog your windows is to roll down your windows before leaving or keep a clean chalkboard eraser in your vehicle to wipe away the fog. 

Keep your vehicle clean

• During winter months, salt, dirt, and grime tend to accumulate underneath your vehicle. This grime buildup can lead to erosion on your vehicle and it’s important to clean that off as soon as possible. We encourage you to stay up to date on car washes on warmer days and park your vehicle in the garage.
