Winter weather is just around the corner here in Doylestown, which means now is the time to make sure your Subaru is ready to handle the snow, ice, and cold temperatures. Proper vehicle maintenance is essential for safe driving during the winter months. At the service center at Fred Beans Subaru, our certified technicians can get your car in top shape for winter driving.
Here are some of the key winter services we recommend to get your Subaru ready for the season:
Cold weather can be tough on your engine, so it's important to get an oil and filter change before winter hits. This will ensure your engine is properly lubricated and running efficiently. We proudly serve drivers from New Hope and throughout the area at our service center.
Your tires are critical for maintaining traction on snowy or icy roads. Our technicians will inspect your tires for proper inflation, tread depth, and any signs of damage or uneven wear. Tire rotation helps extend the life of your tires. For the best traction, consider switching to winter tires if you frequently drive in snowy conditions around Warrington.
Cold weather is hard on car batteries. We'll test your battery and charging system to make sure it's in good shape and can reliably start your car all winter long. If you're due for a new battery, we'll recommend the right replacement to meet your Subaru's specifications.
Visibility is crucial for safe winter driving. If your wiper blades are leaving streaks or missing spots on your windshield, it's time for new ones. We'll replace your wiper blades with high-quality winter blades that can handle snow and ice.
Your vehicle's fluids are essential for proper performance. This includes oil, brake fluid, power steering fluid, transmission fluid, and antifreeze/coolant. We'll check all fluid levels and top them off or recommend a flush if needed. Proper fluid maintenance will help keep your Subaru running smoothly all winter long in Chalfont and beyond.
Your brakes are your first line of defense when driving on slippery winter roads. Our brake inspection will check your brake pads, rotors, drums, shoes, calipers, wheel cylinders, brake hoses, and parking brake to make sure everything is in good working order. If anything needs repairs or replacement, we'll let you know.
