Participating CARSTAR locations from across Canada are offering veterans and active duty members a free windshield treatment in honour of Remembrance Day.
Retired Warrant Officer, with 21 years of service in various posts across Canada, Steve Ivankovic, welcomes gestures local business owners offer to show their gratitude.
“Whenever members of the community take the time out to recognize the hard work and dedication of our soldiers it’s very much appreciated,” comments Steve Ivankovic.
Veterans and active duty service members will have access to a free windshield treatment to help get their vehicles winter ready on November 11 and various dates, depending on the location. Provided on a first-come, first-served basis, this free windshield treatment is available with proof of Canadian Armed Forces service.
“Having been a CARSTAR franchise owner, I had the opportunity to participate in this program in my community and found it extremely rewarding,” says Jeff Labanovich, General Manager, CARSTAR. “This is the least we can do for these heroic citizens who have done so much for us and I hope this small token demonstrates our gratitude for those who have or currently are serving our country.”
The treatment forms a chemical bond to the glass causing rain to bead off the windshield. Dramatically improving visibility in the rain, sleet and snow, while also making it easier to remove ice and snow are some additional benefits to the windshield treatment.
This is the third year CARSTAR locations have participated in this Remembrance Day program to honour members and veterans of the Canadian Armed Forces. A full list of participating CARSTAR locations can be found here.
