That said, many different things need to be regularly checked when you own a Subaru.

Rotate and inspect tires
As with all vehicles, tires are the first line of defense in a crash, but they also affect fuel economy, ride comfort, and road handling. A Subaru mechanic at our Thousand Oaks location can check and rotate your tires if necessary. We recommend that you have your tires inspected at least once a year. Having them rotated every other oil change is also a good idea. This can extend the life of your tires and keep them from wearing out too quickly. Four-wheel alignment is another service that our center in Thousand Oaks offers.
Flush and replace brake fluid
All cars are equipped with hydraulic brakes. This means that they rely on fluid to work. When this fluid breaks down, it can make your brakes less effective. This can be dangerous and lead to an accident. If you’ve had your Subaru for a while, it’s a good idea to have the fluid in your brakes flushed. Doing so will remove contaminants and help keep your system running smoothly for years to come. Here at our Subaru service and Auto Repair Shop, we can replace your brake fluid to ensure that your car will never fail you while braking.
Oil Change
Your car’s engine relies on oil to stay in good running condition. This liquid helps to lubricate moving parts and keep your engine cool. It also acts as a filter to help remove dirt and impurities from your motor. Unfortunately, when the oil becomes dirty, it loses its effectiveness. This can result in costly repairs and shortened engine life. Flushing your cooling system and changing your oil can help prevent this from occurring. Doing so will also keep your Subaru running at its best and extend its lifespan. It is best to have one of our mechanics at Accurate Automotive Services change your oil, as a professional can ensure the job is done correctly and won’t harm the car.
Brake inspection
We recommend you have the following items inspected for the health and safety of your car:
Brake pads: All cars should have their brake pads inspected at each oil change. If they show signs of wear, they should be replaced immediately. If you wait too long, you could have a severe accident on your hands.
Rotors: The rotors are the part of your car’s brakes that touches the ground and help to slow you down. If they are worn, they can cause your vehicle to stop more slowly.
Tires: All cars should have their tires inspected at each oil change. Doing so will help you to spot potential problems before they become an issue. If your tires look worn or show dry rot, it’s time to replace them.
Check engine light service
One of the most crucial parts of our Subaru maintenance service is having the “check engine” light checked. You may have heard of this light before. It flashes when there is something wrong with your car. Most modern vehicles have a system that lets you know if something is wrong with your car. This is called an on-board diagnostic system (OBD). It allows our mechanics to diagnose potential issues with your vehicle and lets you know what needs to be fixed. If your Subaru’s OBD system picks something up that needs to be fixed, the “check engine” light will come on. This is your car’s way of letting you know something is wrong and that you should talk to a mechanic as soon as possible.
Radiator Coolant Flush
Your radiator is responsible for regulating the temperature of your engine. Unfortunately, over time, sludge and contaminants build up in the radiator. This reduces the effectiveness of your radiator. At our center in Thousand Oaks, we can perform a radiator coolant flush for you. This service cleans out the contaminants and helps to prevent major issues with your radiator. There are many benefits to completing a radiator coolant flush regularly, such as reduced wear and tear on your vehicle and improved fuel economy, which can save you a great deal of money over time.
