Start getting ready for winter now with Subaru service at Mid-Hudson Subaru! A head-start on winter prep will have you coasting through the snowy season with confidence. more Test Your Battery If your battery is losing its capacity, a freezing cold winter may leave you stranded at the side of the road. Our team will test your battery and electrical system out so you don’t have to worry about waiting for a jump start. Since batteries begin to have issues as soon as the temperature starts dropping, you’ll want to take care of this task this fall. Check Your Tires Even if you don’t swap out your tires for a winter set when snow starts falling, you’ll still want them to be inspected. Rotating your tires and checking their tread depth can help you maintain control on icy roads, and as temperatures drop, you’ll need to track their changing tire pressure, too. And if you still take your Subaru Outback down snowy trails during the holiday season, you’ll want to consider a set of snow tires for rugged driving. Prepare an Emergency Kit No matter how well you plan, emergencies always happen on the road, so be prepared with a winter emergency kit. You’ll need warm clothing, a first aid kit, and ways to stay visible, like a flashlight, flare, and a reflective marker. If you don’t have one already, our team can help you put what you need together. Get Subaru Service in Wappingers Falls, NY Fall is the best time to start preparing yourself for the weather ahead.

Everyone knows the biggest benefits of electric vehicles: the ability to say goodbye to the gas pump and lower your emissions at the same time. But that’s just the start of the advantages of these sporty, responsive vehicles. Try these benefits out in person at Mid-Hudson Subaru and find your new favorite way to get around. more Instant-On Power No matter how powerful your sports car is, a traditional gasoline engine will need a few seconds to get pumping after a stop. Electric motors, on the other hand, jump to life the instant you hit the accelerator. That means more time enjoying cruising speeds on sunny highways while you leave the gas models in your dust. Safer Driving The heavy battery underneath your EV doesn’t just keep you powered—it gives your EV a lower center of balance, too. With that extra weight underneath, these cars are less likely to flip over in an accident. That’s just the start of the safety advantages of electric power: with no engine under the hood, the entire front zone of your car becomes a crumple zone, helping to alleviate the impact in a collision. Overnight Convenience Once you have Level 2 charging set up in your garage, you’ll be ready for a full charge every day. Level 2 charging can be set up on any 240-volt outlet, and once you’re hooked up, charging at home becomes even more convenient. And when you need emergency miles on a road trip, a DC Fast Charging station is never far away. Experience the Benefits of Electric Vehicles at Mid-Hudson Subaru There are tons of benefits of EV ownership. Experience them all at our Wappingers Falls, NY, Subaru dealership. Explore our lineup, including both traditional cars and EVs, and apply for Subaru financing. Hit the road and take a test drive today!

Your adventure may not be complete without your furry friend, but if you’re not prepared for car travel with pets, it can make your trip a lot more messy, too. Luckily, with a little preparation and some accessories from Mid-Hudson Subaru, your trip will be hassle-free. Be ready for these challenges so you can focus on enjoying the road. more Keep Them Secure A wandering pet who wants to get into the front seat can be one of the most distracting things to happen while you’re driving. Your cat will not just be more secure in a cat carrier than in a harness, they’ll also probably be more comfortable. While many drivers use harnesses for their dogs, a collapsable pet kennel is the safer option, provided you have the room in your cargo area. If you do use a harness, be sure it is properly secured to the seatbelt. Protect Your Interior Your pet may have a wonderful time on your trip—but when you see your cabin filled with dog hair, you’ll still wish you had prepared more. A rear seat carrier can ensure everything your dog leaves behind is easily removable. Because they attach right to the LATCH system already in your SUV, the cover is easy to set up and keeps your cabin waterproof. Plan Out Stops You’ll already need to make regular stops for yourself, but don’t forget that your pet will probably need even more. Plan to stop at a rest area and take your dog for a walk every couple of hours. In addition to letting them stretch, it’s a good opportunity to get them hydrated again, as it’s usually hard to have a water bowl in a moving car.
