The famous mechanic Juan José, in his official official profile of TikTok@talleresebenezer, explained a recommendation to face the coldest months of the year, especially in areas where there are increased risk of snowfall and getting behind the wheel could turn into a real nightmare.
The automotive professional highlighted the use of “the chains” in front of a specialized snow tire: “For me, the snow tire, no matter how much it has this indicator, will never replace the chains in the car.”
The recommendation of mechanic Juan José
Juan José explained that, to face a snowfall, the safest thing is to do it with a “chain game”: “My recommendation is to always bring a game inside because you don’t really know if you’ll ever face snowfall while driving.”
In turn, he mentioned that many drivers think that a set of snow tires would be enough to get out of this situation, but the mechanic once again emphasized the importance of chains: “I have no excuse of “if the tire is for snow, I don’t need chains”. Chains will always grip more than just a tire. »

Finally, the automotive and influence professional concluded his recommendation by specifying that “the briefcase” of the chains takes up very little space inside the vehicle and, in any dangerous scenario, it could even save our lives.
“Personally, I would always say that if you have two-wheel drive, try to carry two sets of chains inside the car, one for each wheel. Certainly, in an emergency, with the little space one of these suitcases takes up, if you live in a snowy area or with the risk of a lot of snow, carrying it inside can even save your life,” he concluded.
