If you want to keep your Subaru Forester or Subaru Outback performing at its best, regular service appointments will keep your vehicle in excellent conditions. Please take this time to view our frequently asked questions about auto repairs and service. If you still have questions about auto service in Orangeburg NY, please feel free to contact our service department.
Getting regular service appointments will help your vehicle's overall safety. When you bring your vehicle down for your service appointment, we will be sure to check all the other components of your vehicle. For example, when you come in for an oil change, we will also take a look at your tires. Plus, routine maintenance ensures your vehicle will perform at its best.
It's a good idea to schedule a full-service appointment at least once a year. How often you need to schedule service depends on how much you drive around New City, NY, how well your car is maintained, and more. If you do notice anything unusual with your vehicle, be sure to bring it down to our Subaru repair facility as soon as you can.
Oil maintenance is one of the most important service items. You can get an oil change every 3,000 to 5,000 miles, but newer vehicles can go 7,000 miles depending on the make and model. If you are driving more than usual, you may need an oil change sooner-as always, we can help!
Aside from motor oil, there are other fluids your vehicle needs including coolant, power steering fluid, brake fluid, transmission fluid, and windshield washer fluid. These fluids should also be checked on a regular basis. We suggest checking them every 5,000 miles, but our technicians can check them for you when you visit our service center.
You can change your air filter about every 20,000 miles or once a year- whichever comes first. If you drive a vehicle that's equipped with a turbocharged engine, like a Subaru WRX, then we suggest changing it sooner.
Our Subaru service professionals recommend getting your brakes checked at least every 10,000 miles. If you hear increased noise such as squeaking or squealing, you may want to bring your car down to our service department as soon as you can. For your safety, do not put off brake maintenance or brake repair.
Brake pads do wear out over time, especially because we depend on our brakes daily. Typically, brake pads can be replaced every 50,000 miles, but this depends on the brake material and your overall driving habits.
When you factor in your driving habits, the number of miles you drive, and weather conditions, you should change your car battery every 3 to 4 years. If you see a warning light on your dash or it's taking a long time to start your vehicle, then it may be time to replace your car battery.
We suggest getting a tire rotation at least every 7,500 miles or every six months - whichever comes first. The best time to get a tire rotation is when you bring your Subaru vehicle down to our service center for a routine oil change.
The air pressure in your tires is measured in pounds per square inch (PSI). PSI can range between 30 and 35 depending on your manufacturer's recommendation. Be sure to check your vehicle owner's manual. You can also find the PSI printed inside your vehicle.
Maintaining your tires is a critical part of the service process. Tires can last between 35,000 to 60,000 miles. Again, these numbers depend on your driving habits, tire rotations, and tire size. When you bring your vehicle in for an oil change, our technicians will be sure to check your tires and measure the tire tread depth.
