The essentials to have in your car in winter

Even as a car owner in Quebec for several years, you can never predict what “surprises” await you during the cold season: blocked roads, snow or ice storms, slippery roads, flat batteries, etc. Do you have everything you need at hand in your vehicle to get out of a difficult situation? According to experts, your winter emergency equipment should contain at least the following items:

• Water in a thermos;
• Non-perishable food;
• jumper cables;
• Flares;
• Traction aids;
• Warm clothing;
• Snow brush and scraper;
• Windshield washer fluid;
• Hand-crank flashlight;
• A small shovel;
• A cellphone;
• A first-aid kit.

And if the unknown meets you on the roads of Quebec, it is better to put all the chances on your side and have a vehicle in good condition. So don’t hesitate to make an appointment with a Mister Muffler to make sure your vehicle is ready to face the winter.
