Prepare for Winter: Wiper Blades and Washer Fluids for Car Care Month
October marks Fall Car Care Month, an initiative from the Car Care Council that reminds drivers to prepare their vehicles for colder, darker, and wetter months ahead. Across Canada, where early snow, frost, and road salt can appear before November, visibility preparation isn’t just recommended—it’s essential.
For automotive dealerships and service departments, it’s the right time to review seasonal stock and ensure your shelves are filled with wiper blades, winter washer fluid, de-icers, and glass-care essentials. These fast-moving items help customers stay safe while giving your team the dependable supply coverage it needs to meet demand.
Keep Customers Safe with Proper Windshield Wipers
In Canada, wiper blades take a beating. Snow, freezing rain, and road grime wear them down quickly, often within six to twelve months of use. Industry experts recommend replacing wiper blades at least once a year to maintain visibility and reduce the risk of streaking, smearing, or chatter.
Stocking high-quality wiper blades—and ensuring consistent fitment coverage for domestic and import vehicles—keeps your customers protected and your operations running smoothly. Kent Automotive supports dealerships with dependable inventory solutions and proactive restocking before the winter rush begins.
A great option for Canadian service bays is the Symphony Universal Beam Blade—an all-season wiper built for reliable performance in any weather. Made with premium rubber for a quiet, streak-free wipe, it fits over 98% of vehicles on the road, making it a smart, go-to solution for busy shops. With easy, secure installation and OE-level quality, it’s a dependable upgrade that helps your customers stay safe and your team stay efficient—especially as winter approaches.
