Denver’s spring weather is unpredictable—sunny skies can turn into hailstorms in minutes. At Hail Medic, Colorado’s leading Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) specialists, we know how damaging spring storms can be. Follow our essential auto care checklist to protect your vehicle and learn how our team can repair hail damage quickly and affordably.
Denver's fluctuating spring temperatures and sudden rain showers demand reliable tires. Consider all-weather tires for better handling in Denver's mixed conditions.
Check Tread Depth: Use the penny test. Insert a penny upside down into the tire treads—if Lincoln's head is visible, it is time to replace the tire.
Monitor Tire Pressure: Temperature swings affect PSI; check monthly.
Rotate Tires: Ensures even wear and better traction.
Winter can deplete vital fluids. Take the following precautions before spring storms arrive.
Oil & Coolant–Prevent overheating with fresh oil and proper coolant levels.
Windshield Washer Fluid–Spring rain and mud require maximum visibility.
Brake & Power Steering Fluid–Ensure safe stopping and steering.
Cold winters weaken car batteries. Take preventative measures this spring to ensure your vehicle's battery and electrical system function properly.
Test Battery Voltage–Weak batteries struggle in spring's fluctuating temps.
Clean Corroded Terminals–Use baking soda and water for a quick fix.
Monitor Signs of a Failing Battery–Watch for a slow engine crank or dim headlights.
Colorado is part of "Hail Alley," where severe hailstorms cause millions of dollars in auto damage each year. Small hail, even one inch in diameter, can dent a vehicle's exterior at speeds over fifty mph. Protect your vehicle from hail damage whenever feasible to minimize costly repairs.
Park in a parking garage or under cover.
Use a hail car cover or thick blankets when parking outside.
Monitor weather alerts with services like NOAA Radar & Weather Forecast, which provide real-time hail warnings.
Spring storms expose weak spots in your windshield.
Repair Chips Immediately – Temperature changes can cause windshield cracks to expand.
Replace Worn Wiper Blades–Streak-free visibility is crucial in heavy rain.
