As the weather gets colder, I am reminded of things that can happen to your car in frigid temperatures.

One is the outer fuel door on your vehicle.  Most of them are secured with a plastic bracket, and when it gets very cold, they become brittle.  Many, many times in the body shop, folks came in because while fueling, they hit the door and it broke off.  The cost for replacing and painting a new fuel door is about $200.  Just being aware that this can occur will save you money.  Don’t go banging the fuel nozzle around when it is very cold outside.
