Look—winter in Edmonds is no joke. The roads get slicker than a politician in election season. Ice pops up outta nowhere like, “Surprise!” And your tires? Yeah, they’re out here praying for traction while your brakes are screaming like, “We weren’t built for this!”

Before you know it, you're fishtailing into a snowbank like you're auditioning for Fast & Furious: Holiday Drift. And when it’s all over, you step out, look at your car, and think… “Okay, but like… how bad is it, really?”

Spoiler alert: if you're asking that question, it’s bad enough to call Edmonds Autobody.

Winter Doesn’t Just Bring Snow—It Brings Trouble

Listen. We love the holidays. Hot drinks, twinkly lights, pretending we’re gonna stick to our budget this year. But we all know that as soon as the temperature dips below 40, your car is under attack.

Here’s what your car’s up against:

• Black ice that doesn’t announce itself

• Freezing rain that turns your whole car into a slip-n-slide

• Potholes big enough to host a raccoon family reunion

• And drivers who forgot how to drive once the pumpkin spice hit the air

You’re dodging SUVs, slush, and sketchy turns like you're in an obstacle course—but unfortunately, winter always wins a few rounds.

When the “Sleigh Ride” Goes Sideways (Literally)

You’re thinking, “I didn’t even crash! I just slid a little!”
Okay, cool. But let’s unpack that.

If you “slid a little” into:

• A curb? That’s suspension damage.

• A snowbank? You probably bent the fender.

• Another car? Oof. You’re looking at collision repair, friend.

• Your neighbor’s garbage cans? Look, that’s personal, but still—paint scratches and dents galore.

Don’t talk yourself out of it. That damage is real, and if you let it sit, it’s only gonna get worse.

The Ice-Cold Truth About Collision Damage

Here’s the thing: Winter damage doesn’t always look dramatic.
It can be sneaky. Like your in-laws. You won’t even notice the problem until it’s too late.

Watch for these warning signs:

• Pulling to one side = frame or suspension issues

• Weird vibrations = unibody damage or misalignment

• Rust creeping in = unaddressed paint scratches or exposed metal

• Paint flaking like a croissant = salt and cold doing their thing

And let’s be real—if you can see the dent or scratch? It’s already gone too far.

Don’t Wait for Spring. Fix It Now.

A lot of folks say, “I’ll wait until after winter’s over to fix it.”
Oh really? That’s like saying, “I’ll wait until AFTER the raccoons move in to call pest control.”

Why winter repairs can’t wait:

• Salt and moisture get inside dents and scratches, and BAM—rust

• Misalignment messes up your tires, steering, and fuel economy

• The longer you wait, the worse (and more expensive) it gets

So unless you want to be that person pulling into the company holiday party with a cracked bumper and a fogged-up headlight? Let’s fix it now.
