How to Protect Your Car from Pothole Damage
Every spring, nasty potholes pop up everywhere thanks to winter’s damaging freeze-thaw cycles. These concrete craters can catch even the most attentive drivers by surprise and cause some costly damage to your vehicle.
Check out the dos and don’ts below to help you steer clear of potholes or minimize any damage to your vehicle if you can’t avoid a pothole:
... DO - Maintain safe driving speeds to give yourself the best chance of reacting quickly. - Avoid puddles. They cleverly disguise potholes. - Stick to roads you know well when driving at night since it’s harder to see potholes in the road. - Keep your tires properly inflated to decrease damage from the impact of hitting a pothole.
DON’T - Swerve suddenly into a lane with another vehicle to avoid a pothole. - Forget to periodically check your suspension and steering to ensure they are in good condition - Keep driving your vehicle after hitting a pothole if it feels like something is damaged. Instead, safely pull to the side of the road and check things out.
The good news is that pothole damage is typically covered, in part or in full, by your auto insurance policy if you have collision coverage. Talk to your insurance broker about your particular pothole damage as well as any deductible you would need to pay to see if it is worth filing a claim

During the winter months, you're more likely to experience a collision because of weather and road conditions. While slowing down and driving for the conditions can help, sometimes a collision is unavoidable. One question people often have is whether or not they need to involve the police in the event of a collision. The Red Deer RCMP have some valuable tips on how to handle a collision and when it's necessary to involve them. http://www.reddeer.ca/…/rcmp-2018-02-07 -reporting-collision…

How to Avoid the 5 Most Common Winter Car Problems
Canada’s icy and snowy winters can be brutal on your vehicle, especially if you have to park outside overnight. These tricks will help you avoid the five most common winter car problems that drivers face.
Frozen wipers: To keep your wipers from freezing to your windshield, flip up the blades whenever you have to park overnight.
... Low tire pressure: As temperatures drop, so does the pressure in your vehicle’s tires. Some experts say as much as a pound of pressure per square inch for each 10-degree drop in temperature. To ensure you’re not rolling around on a low tire, walk around your car before driving it. Also, check your tire pressure regularly, at least once a month. Don’t forget to do the same for your spare tire!
Dead car battery: Freezing temperatures are a drain on your car battery. At -17°C, a car's battery loses about 60 percent of its strength and at 0°C, it loses 35 percent. Have your battery checked once a month during winter and disconnect any mobile phones, tablets, chargers and other electronic devices when you don't need them charging, especially when the car is turned off.
Frozen fuel lines: A frozen fuel line occurs when water vapor in the fuel line freezes during cold temperatures. This is a problem because it prevents fuel from getting to the combustion chamber and stops the engine from running. The fastest way to thaw frozen fuel is with a thawing additive like HEET or Quick Thaw. Keep a bottle in the trunk of your car all winter so you’re not caught unprepared. It’s also a good idea to keep your tank near full so water vapor doesn’t even have a chance to accumulate.
Metal corrosion: With all the salt on the roads to melt the ice, it’s easy for salt to accumulate on your vehicle and damage your paint job over time. To prevent metal corrosion, wash your car frequently during the winter months to remove salt build up. Remember to clean the undercarriage as well. How to Avoid the 5 Most Common Winter Car Problems
