With April being tagged as National Car Care Month, Subaru of America has pledged its support for the nationwide month-long program focusing on the importance of regular vehicle maintenance. To celebrate the occasion, participating Subaru dealers are offering free vehicle diagnostic inspections to Subaru owners, emphasizing items that affect fuel economy and offering driving tips for optimizing fuel mileage.

“April is always a good time to assess any needed maintenance or repairs resulting from winter driving, and to make sure your vehicle is ready for summer travel,” notes Jim Sinclair, Vice President, Service, Subaru of America, Inc. “And in today’s economy, the increased fuel efficiency and lower fuel costs that come with a well-maintained vehicle are more important than ever.”

To help owners get the best possible fuel mileage, dealers will be performing the “MPG Inspection.” While the vehicles will receive a thorough check-up of all major operating systems, the MPG (”Maintenance Preserves Gas”) Inspection puts extra emphasis on the systems that directly impact fuel mileage. Drivers will receive a written report on the vehicle’s condition plus helpful driving tips for maximizing fuel efficiency.
