Subaru Vehicle Maintenance Tip: Look at Your Tires Once a Week

Inspect your tires once weekly to see if any look flat or are slowly losing air. Once a month, look at the tread depth to see if you need a new set of tires. If any treads are less than 2/32 of an inch, it’s time for new tires. Having your tires rotated every 10,000 miles can alleviate concerns about tires, but you should keep an eye on them in between service appointments just in case.

Subaru Vehicle Maintenance Tip: Check the Fluids Once a Month

Internal combustion engines need fluids to help them run properly on Park City roads and highways. We highly recommend checking fluid levels once a month to make sure everything is working smoothly in your vehicle.

  • Engine oil
  • Transmission fluid
  • Brake fluid
  • Windshield washer fluid
  • Engine coolant
  • Power steering fluid
