How to Protect Your Car from Hail from Classic Kia

Nov 22, 2016

Waukegan, IL drivers are no strangers to hazardous wintery conditions. But that doesn’t mean they know how to properly shield their car from hail. The impact of these fast-moving ice balls can wreak havoc on your vehicle. Classic Kia is here to help, providing some innovative ideas on how to protect your vehicle from hail this winter.

Raid Your Linen Closet

If you don’t have access to a garage or carport, cover your new Kia vehicle with thick blankets, comforters, or large towels to protect it from the onslaught of hail. The more layers you add, the better.

Find Nearby Parking Garages

If you’re on the road frequently or travel for work, use your GPS to find the nearest parking garage to ride out the storm safely.

Grab Your Floor Mats

If you’re caught in a violent hail storm and cannot find cover immediately, put your floor mats on the roof and hood of your car. While the mats won’t cover the vehicle entirely, they will protect it from some nasty paint or glass damage.

Take Cover

Investing in an anti-hail cover to keep in your car is a great idea. There are a number of sizes to choose from that cater to every vehicle.
