OIL CHANGE
Our technicians will drain the old oil from your vehicle's engine and remove the used filter. They'll then replace it with oil matching your vehicle's specifications and a new OEM (original equipment manufacturer) oil filter.
TIRE SERVICES
Whether your tires just need service, such as a patch, rotation, or balance, or you need a new set of tires, we have the inventory and certified technicians to keep them in excellent condition.
BRAKE MAINTENANCE
Your vehicle needs regular brake fluid changes to keep the brakes working properly. We can inspect your brakes and perform any necessary repairs or replacements.
BATTERY SERVICES
We can test your vehicle's battery to determine whether it's still in good condition or needs to be replaced. We can also clean any corrosion that has built up on the battery terminals and tighten the connections.
TRANSMISSION SERVICES
Both automatic and manual transmissions need their fluid changed after a certain mileage. Additionally, if your transmission shows signs of trouble, you can come by for an inspection or replacement.
ALIGNMENT SERVICES
During a wheel alignment service, our technicians will inspect your wheels' camber, toe, and caster angles and adjust them if needed. This ensures that your tires wear evenly and your drives remain safe.
HVAC SERVICES
The Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) system in your vehicle keeps you cool in warm weather, warm in cold weather, and comfortable in humidity, and we can perform services to ensure that it stays at its best.
FLUIDS SERVICES
Your vehicle's fluids, including engine oil, automatic or manual transmission fluid, engine coolant fluid, brake fluid, and other vital fluids, need to be changed regularly.
FILTERS SERVICES
Your vehicle's oil, fuel, and engine air filters keep contaminants from entering the engine, and the cabin air filter prevents airborne particles from entering your cabin. We can change all these filters when necessary.
Signs You Need Service
As the owner of a versatile Subaru, it's imperative you have it serviced on time. Doing so will greatly increase the chances of it lasting a long time. Your Subaru is very good at telling you when it needs service. Dashboard warning lights will pop up, and you may even receive a message on your instrument cluster if it's a newer model.
If you put off having service performed, even if it's routine, it can cause major problems for your ride. Keep an eye out for signs like:
Burning smells: A burning smell can come from different areas of your car, including your engine, brakes, etc. This usually means one or more parts of the car are worn and should be replaced ASAP or that you're low on fluid due to regular driving or a leak. Don't drive a car that emits a burning smell. Have it towed to our service center, and we'll handle the issue.
Squealing, rattling, and skipping sounds: If you hear squealing, rattling, or skipping sounds when you accelerate or brake, you'll need service ASAP. This could signal a variety of issues, including faulty brakes, transmission, etc.
Shaking while driving or braking: Is your car shaking when you drive or brake? This is likely due to worn brake pads or rotors. Have one of our technicians inspect your ride to determine the issue.
Your car pulls to one side of the road: Slight drifting is natural. However, if you're steering your car and it consistently pulls you to one side of the road, it probably means there's an alignment issue, or your tires are worn.
Flickering lights: Have you noticed your lights flickering at random times? Are they flickering rapidly when you go to start your car? This is a tell-tale sign of a failing battery. You can jump-start it with jumper cables and another vehicle or a battery pack. However, this is meant to be a temporary solution. You can bring your car to our service center to have a technician assess its health.
If you notice any of these signs, schedule a service appointment with us ASAP.
