Hurricane Season & Your Vehicle – How to Stay Safe Before, During and After the Storm

Hurricane season is here, and with it comes the potential for dangerous road conditions and vehicle damage. At Loyalty Collision, we want you to stay safe on the road and know that we’re here if your car needs attention before, during or after a storm.

Here’s a quick guide to help you prepare:

Before the Storm

Preparation can make all the difference.

• Fuel Up & Check Essentials: Make sure your gas tank is full, tires are properly inflated, and windshield wipers are in good condition.
• Headlight Safety: Clear, bright headlights are critical in heavy rain. Consider our Headlight Restoration Service for maximum visibility.
• Protect Your Vehicle: Park away from low-lying areas or flood zones and, if possible, inside a garage to minimize damage from flying debris.

During the Storm

The safest option is to avoid driving altogether, but if you must be on the road:

• Stay Off Flooded Roads: Never attempt to drive through standing water – it’s impossible to judge the depth.
• Drive Cautiously: High winds and debris can create sudden hazards.
• If Trouble Strikes: If you’re involved in an accident or your car is disabled, call Loyalty for 24/7 towing assistance.

After the Storm

When the skies clear, hazards may still remain.

• Inspect Your Vehicle: Look for dents, broken glass or other storm-related damage. Our team can help with auto glass repair, dent removal and more.
• Stay Alert: Watch out for downed power lines and debris until clean-up crews have cleared the roads.
• Repair or Replace: If your car is repairable, we’ll restore it to pre-storm condition. If it’s totaled, remember Loyalty dealerships offer a $200 Loyalty Credit toward the purchase or lease of a new vehicle.

At Loyalty Collision, we’re here to help you weather the storm. Whether it’s restoring visibility, repairing glass, fixing dents or providing towing, you can count on us for safe, reliable service.
