As summer winds down, cooler mornings and falling leaves are your sign that it’s time to prepare your vehicle for the change of season.

We help drivers across Northern Colorado stay ahead of the curve with seasonal maintenance that protects your vehicle and gives you peace of mind. Whether you’re commuting to work, heading into the mountains, or getting kids to school, now is the perfect time to schedule a check-up at a car repair shop you can trust.
Why Fall Maintenance Matters
Seasonal changes affect every part of your vehicle. From your tires and battery to wipers and fluids, small issues in the fall can turn into bigger problems when winter arrives. Here’s what our ASE-certified technicians recommend:
Check Tire Condition and Pressure
Cooler temperatures can lower tire pressure, leading to poor traction and uneven wear. Let us inspect your
tires or help you prepare for snow with winter-ready options.
Test Your Battery
Batteries tend to fail as temperatures drop. Our team can test your battery's strength and replace it if needed — no unexpected morning surprises.
Replace Wiper Blades and Refill Washer Fluid
With increased rain and the chance of early snow, visibility is key. Fresh wipers and freeze-resistant washer fluid make a huge difference.
Inspect Your Heating System
Don’t wait until the first cold snap to discover your heat isn’t working. A quick inspection now ensures comfort later.
Top Off and Inspect Fluids
Coolant, brake fluid, and oil all play a crucial role in performance as the seasons shift. We’ll check them all and top off what’s needed.
