General Motors would like to wish you a Happy Thanksgiving and share some winter driving and car preparation tips so you’re prepared to make it safely “over the river and through the woods to grandmother’s house” this holiday season.

To make sure your winter driving is as smooth as possible for you and your car, GM Consumer Advocate James Bell has prepared some tips to get you ready.
