them open, as this can damage the rubber trim
around the doors. When done, wipe dry to avoid
further freezing.

fallen or have been carried in for use as a nest by a
small animal. Also check under the hood for leftover
flammable materials after you or someone else has
performed maintenance on your vehicle.
