3 Steps To Safety
Our team of experts at Ajax Nissan know that winter driving, especially in Ajax and across the Durham Region, offers a unique set of challenges.
From lake-effect snow squalls off Lake Ontario, blowing snow across the 401 to icy side streets in Pickering and Whitby, driving in the winter requires preparation, patience, and the right techniques.
As part of our commitment to keeping our community safe, we have compiled a list of steps that can help anyone become a more confident winter driver.
Being ready for winter driving kicks off way before you even start the car. Prepping your ride is hands down the most crucial thing you can do.
This is non-negotiable for an Ontario winter. Winter tires use a special rubber compound that stays flexible in the cold, providing crucial grip for turning and stopping on ice and snow. All-season tires lose their effectiveness below 7°C.
Ensure your windshield washer fluid is a winter-specific mixture that won't freeze. It's also a good time to check your antifreeze and oil levels.
Cold weather is tough on batteries. Have yours tested to ensure it has enough cranking power. Your brakes are your most important safety feature, so a pre-season inspection is always a smart move.
Be prepared for any situation. Your Winter Road Kit should include:
Our service centre at Ajax Nissan can get your vehicle fully winter-ready. Give us a call to book your seasonal maintenance!
Driving in the winter demands a different mindset. Slow down, be patient, and focus on being smooth.
We know our customers need some of the best cars for snow. Nissan vehicles are engineered to conquer tough Durham Region winters, proven by extensive testing in Canada's harshest conditions.
The key to their performance is Intelligent All-Wheel Drive (AWD). This smart system proactively monitors the road, sending power to the wheels with the most grip to enhance traction before you slip. You'll find this technology in top models like the family-favourite Nissan Rogue.
Whether you need the versatile Rogue, the nimble Nissan Kicks for city streets, or the confident Nissan Sentra sedan, we have good cars for snow to fit any lifestyle. Paired with advanced safety features and winter comforts like heated seats and remote start, a Nissan provides the peace of mind you need.
