An Ice Scraper is a must-have for every icy winter. Even if hasn’t been snowing, ice can build up on your windows through condensation. Always keep a warm blanket handy, or even an extra coat and scarf, in case of an emergency. A flashlight and flares can be especially useful if your vehicle gets stuck at night.

Our INFINITI technicians at our Service Center can ensure that vital components, like your defroster, are in working condition, and check for any leaks that would cause fog to decrease visibility while on the road.
