The team at Ertle Subaru has your guide to winter maintenance. Our service center is committed to keeping our Scranton area drivers safely on the road.
Check Your Vehicle’s Fluid Levels
Cooler temperature can impact the consistency of the fluids in your Subaru, changing the way they are utilized and consumed. It is important to regularly check your oil, antifreeze, and wiper fluid levels throughout the winter months. Each of these are vital to your safety on the road. If you need assistance, the service center at Ertle Subaru is pleased to offer oil change and transmission fluid changes.
Check Your Tire Tread Levels
While your Subaru is designed to have your back in all conditions, potential black ice or snow on the road create unique driving hazards during the winter months. While you should regularly rotate your tires, a new season is a great time to check tread levels. Easily check at home by placing a penny head side down. If you can see the forehead, your tread is too low.
Cool temperatures will also impact your tire pressure, you will want to regularly check these levels to avoid any unexpected issues. If you are in need of any tire services, be sure to schedule an appointment with Ertle Subaru!
Check Your Battery
Your battery is vital to your vehicle’s performance. Corrosion, build up, or low power will prohibit your vehicle from functioning properly. Check under the hood regularly for these things to ensure you do not get stranded in the winter weather. If you find yourself in need of a new battery, Ertle Subaru is here to help.
