February roads are tough—is your car tougher? ⛈️🛠️
UK winters don’t end in January! Mid-February often brings a mix of heavy rain, sleet, and the "pothole peak." At Point S, we’re seeing more vehicles with sidewall damage and alignment issues than any other time of year.
Don't wait for a warning light. Stay safe with these 3 quick checks:
- The 20p Test: If you don't have a tyre pressure gaige, you can use a 20p coin. If you can see the outer band of a 20p coin in your tread, it’s time for a change.
- Visual Check: Inspect for cuts or "eggs" (bulges) caused by winter potholes.
- Wipers & Fluids: Ensure your visibility isn't compromised by salt spray or old blades.
Book your visit today at one of our nationwide Point S garages.
