Winter is coming! And that&#39;s a fact!&nbsp; 
 
Although you and your loved ones may be prepared, what about your car? There is a lot to think about and it is important you do not forget anything.&nbsp; 
 
Let&rsquo;s start with your tires. 
 
&ldquo;Maybe you just moved in from Florida or a warm weather state and you might not have those all season tires. Get those checked out,&rdquo; said Steve Spahn, the owner of <a href="http://www.honest-1.com/?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=kusa-9-news-honest-1-shares-tips-for-winter-travel-7916" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Honest-1 Auto Care</a>. 
 
Another thing to worry about is the tread. Are your tires still legally good? 
 
Great, your tires are ready to hit the road! But that won&#39;t help you if your car won&#39;t start. When was the last time you replaced your car battery? If it&rsquo;s been two or three years, it&rsquo;s probably time to get it checked. 
 
&ldquo;First thing is your battery you want to get your battery checked,&rdquo; Spahn said. &ldquo;Here, we test it, make sure it has the right amperage&hellip; it has the right charge and everything like that. Once it gets cold, that puts more stress on the battery and that should be tested to see if it&rsquo;s ready to go for winter.&rdquo; 
 
And before it&#39;s too late...check your heater!&nbsp; 
 
&quot;Your heater runs off your cooling system of the engine,&rdquo; Spahn said. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s your radiator, and your anti-freeze. The heat exchanges from the engine into the cabin. Really it&rsquo;s a matter of checking your coolant in your engine. You want to make sure it&rsquo;s full. If it&rsquo;s not full, you&rsquo;re not going to get heat.&rdquo;
