Car Battery Not Starting in the Cold?

The Meineke Car Care Center on Paxton Street in Harrisburg will get your car going again if it won't start in the cold.

Car owners were shaking the ghosts and goblins from their dreams this morning when many drivers found they had real Grinch to cope with - their car refused to start. It's not surprising because it was bitterly cold overnight in Harrisburg with the area under a freeze warning. Another freeze warning is in effect tonight.

Unfortunately cars are well known to become stubborn and refuse to start in cold weather. Thesun.co.uk  explains: "Not unlike humans needing layers of clothes to brave low temperatures, cars, truck, and jeeps also need a little preparation to get going. When cars won't start, it's often because their engine oil has thickened in the cold, which increases friction and makes it harder for the starter motor to spin the engine.

"Cold, damp weather can sometimes play havoc on batteries as vehicle electrical systems have to work a lot harder."

The best way to avoid the problem is to make sure you've kept up with vehicle maintenance. In this cold season, car battery maintenance is key. If you haven't kept up with car care or your car refuses to start for any reason, it's time to visit the Meineke Car Care Center on Paxton Street in Harrisburg.
