Is Your Car Ready for Fall? A Quick Checklist for Broken Bow Drivers

Fall is here in McCurtain County - cooler mornings, shorter days, and before long, those damp, chilly drives dowy drives down Highway 259. Now is the perfect time to make sure your vehicle is ready for the season. Here's a quick checklist:

  1. Battery

Cooler weather is hard on batteries. If yours is more than three years old or cranks slowly on cold mornings, ha mornings, have it tested beforeit leaves you stranded.

2. Brakes

Slick fall roads demand brakes you can trust. Squeaking, grinding, or a soft pedal means it's time for an inspecor an inspection





3. Fluids

Oil, coolant, brake fluid, and transmission fluid all keep your  car running right. Low or dirty fluids cause bids cause bigger  problems down the road.

4. Wipers and washer fluid

Fall rain and morning dew mean you need wipers that clear the windshield cleanly - no streaks or chatter.

5. Lights

With shorter days, you're driving in the dark more often. Check headlights, brake lights, and turn signals.

6. Heater and defroster

Make sure heat blows hot and the defroster clears the windshield quickly before that first frosty morning.

7. Belts and hoses

Cracked belts and soft hoses fail when temperatures swing. A quick look now beats a breakdown later.
