Winter Service for Your Subaru in Grand Rapids
At Fox Subaru Grand Rapids, our service center is here to meet your driving demands, including preparing for winter. Here in Grand Rapids, along with Lowell, Zeeland and Wyoming, MI, we experience all seasons, which means being prepared for different times of the year. For the snowy and cold months ahead, it's a good idea to have regular services for winter, including specialty demands that come with the season. We're happy to help Subaru drivers attain all these with a visit to our service center, and have you ready for when the winter comes.

Be Ready in Your Subaru This Winter
Knowing what services you need before winter is important. We can help you account for any regular services that are due. This includes oil changes, brake service, alignments, and battery checks, all of which are important to stay on top of year-round, but especially in winter to keep the engine running smoothly and your car starting on cold winter days. We also recommend having your heating and defroster systems looked at so that they'll warm you up and clear off window frost.
Additionally, any lingering vehicle issue that needs to be addressed, we can take a look and find a solution and fix it before the snow hits.
Winter Service FAQs
We get many questions about winter service in Grand Rapids, and we're here to provide answers and help you make a confident decision when deciding what type of service you need.
Should I use winter tires, or are my all-season tires okay?
We recommend winter tires. If you use winter tires combined with Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive on Subaru vehicles, you will maintain standout control and traction on streets and roads around Grand Rapids. All-season tires can be effective, but we believe having that extra level of traction makes a difference in areas like ours, where we can get wintery weather mixes of snow, slush, ice, and more. With careful driving habits and a good set of winter tires, you can stay confident getting behind the wheel in winter.


Should I undercoat my car? What does Undercoating do?
Undercoating is done to protect your undercarriage from rusting. With newer vehicles, they generally have gotten undercoating done when they rolled off the production line. Over time, that will fade, but it does last for years. Whether you should get undercoating depends on many factors, including rust damage or if your vehicle is older and showing signs of rusting. We can take a look and offer our feedback on if you need it. One thing that you can do to prevent rust is to make sure the underbody of the vehicle is washed to keep off-road salt off the vehicle, which can cause rust.
