And then we will move on to the tires. I will show you how to inspect the tire? How to check the air pressure in the tire? And explain to you why this is important? After that I will move on and show you how to supply your car for winter driving? How to prepare the car with an emergency kit? That will help in case you are stranded along the road during winter.

Jeffrey Boone: And remember safety first. Anytime working on an automobile make sure that you protect your eyes, put safety glasses, that you protect your suffering harm and injury by making sure you have no loose clothing or baggy clothing that could get entangled in machinery. Keep you fingers, hands, arms out of moving parts. Never work on a hot engine. And anytime you are working on a vehicle and jacking it up, make sure you use jack stands.

Ed Kriston: And before we get started, let me tell you a little bit about AAA. Jeff and I are with the approved Auto repair department. We are looking for the better shops in the area that take care of their customers to become AAA approved auto repair shops. Jeffrey Boone: We are only looking for the top of the line shops. Not every shop can cut the grave when it comes to AAA approved auto repair. So if you see the sign upfront, you can trust and rely on them to take care of your cars to your needs.
