Your Subaru's EyeSight system is a game-changer for safety on the road. But did you know that Subaru EyeSight needs regular maintenance at the Subaru dealer to function properly? You should maintain the system through regular recalibrations, cleanings, and software updates to maintain its reliability. more Why Subaru EyeSight Technology Maintenance is Crucial for Safety Improves EyeSight's Accuracy Regular system calibrations are crucial for EyeSight's cameras and sensors. This allows them to detect lane markings, vehicles, and pedestrians accurately. Even a slight misalignment can reduce the reliability of features like lane departure warning, pre-collision braking, automatic emergency steering, and blind-spot detection. That's why recalibration is essential after wheel alignment, windshield replacement, or collision repair to maintain EyeSight's reliability. Reduces the Risk of Accidents Obstructions from dirt, dust, and moisture can hinder EyeSight's camera lenses from working properly. If the cameras are obstructed, the system won't be able to identify hazards reliably. Adding a simple lens cleaning to your maintenance routine ensures the system can effectively scan the road ahead. This reduces the risk of accidents and saves you from dealing with costly collision repairs. Keeps the System Up-to-Date Like smartphones and computers, your Subaru's driver assistance system occasionally receives updates from Subaru to refine its performance. These updates may add new functions or improve hazard recognition and emergency response capabilities. Stay up-to-date with software updates to improve the system's performance and enhance safety. You can have software updates checked and installed at the dealership during routine system maintenance. Reveals Faults and Misalignments Minor accidents like fender benders can throw EyeSight sensors out of alignment, leading to erratic function and increased safety risks. Even something minor like hitting a pothole can damage ABS sensors. When this happens, a safety systems alignment service is required to recalibrate the sensors. During this service, our technicians will identify faults, replace damaged sensors, and recalibrate the system to restore accuracy. Schedule EyeSight Maintenance at Your Subaru Dealer The best way to stay on top of EyeSight maintenance is to schedule it alongside our routine service appointments at your local dealership. Our factory-trained technicians have specialized tools and knowledge to properly inspect, calibrate, update, and realign every system component to Subaru's specifications. Don't compromise your safety by neglecting your driver assistance system. When properly maintained, EyeSight acts as your reliable co-pilot and second pair of eyes.

Ask any Subaru dealer why their customers keep coming back for one Subaru after another, and you'll hear one answer above all others: symmetrical all-wheel drive. Subaru's take on AWD has given drivers confidence and performance on the road for decades. But how does it actually work? more 1. It's Not Like The Other Guys' Subaru's SAWD technology holds one key difference from most other companies' All-Wheel Drive (AWD) offerings: symmetry. Some "all-wheel drive" offerings on the market are actually front-wheel drive vehicles most of the time. Their "all-wheel drive" mode only activates once the vehicle detects one wheel starting to lose traction. By contrast, Subaru's all-wheel drive is symmetrical, meaning that all four wheels are engaged, all the time. This gives significant advantages in stability, traction, and cornering. It also means there's no lag waiting for the system to engage. 2. It's Not Just for Bad Weather Sure, Subaru's SAWD technology rightfully makes the brand a legend in places with difficult climates and tough terrain because of the obvious advantages in traction on icy, slippery, or rainy roads. But the use of SAWD technology provides benefits even when the road is bone-dry. Traction loss is a fundamental cause of two common cornering problems: oversteer, where the nose of the car veers too far into a turn, or understeer, in which the nose doesn't turn far enough into a curve. SAWD instantly transfers power from the wheels that slip to the wheels that grip, helping to minimize and even correct both oversteer and understeer. That translates into more precise turns, higher driver confidence, and a better connection between the driver and the road. 3. X-Mode Takes it To Another Level When the going gets tough, the tough engage X-Mode. X-Mode is an electronic system on most Subaru models designed for situations where more torque and power might be needed, like descending a steep and icy hill, driving on an unploughed highway, or trying to get going on a muddy and unpaved road. X-Mode uses the same sensors as the AWD system, but impacts more than just power distribution. When engaged, X-Mode helps ensure the engine delivers torque gradually rather than suddenly to prevent wheel spin on slippery surfaces. On descents, X-Mode forces the transmission to remain in lower gear to prevent over-acceleration. It also enhances Limited-Slip Differential control, meaning that braking is applied much faster and only to the wheels that need it most. Come in for a test drive at Sunset Hills Subaru in Sunset Hills, MO and experience SAWD for yourself.

If you're in the market for an adventurous, rugged, off-road-capable subcompact SUV, the 2024 Subaru Crosstrek has you covered. more 4 Key Features That Make the 2024 Subaru Crosstrek Stand Out from the Pack 1. A Fuel-Efficient Power Plant With a Massive Fuel Capacity The Crosstrek comes standard with a 2.0-liter DOHC Subaru Boxer engine that cranks out a very respectable 152 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and 145 lb-ft of torque at 4,000 rpm. That engine allows drivers to enjoy 34 mpg on the highway and 27 mpg in the city. An enormous 16.6 gallon fuel tank comes standard, which can allow driving ranges exceeding 500 miles per tank. 2. Excellent Driving Dynamics It's no secret in the automotive community that Subarus are exceptionally stable on the road. That stability starts with standard, symmetrical all-wheel-drive, and is only enhanced by the layers of technology Subaru has built into the Crosstrek. X-Mode optimizes engine output and gear ratios, tunes engagement of the all-wheel-drive system, and reduces individual wheelspin, optimizing traction on slippery surfaces. Features like Hill Descent Control, Vehicle Dynamics Control, and Active Torque Vectoring all combine to keep the vehicle stable in unpredictable terrain. The Crosstrek also features 4-wheel independent raised suspension, electric power-assisted rack and pinion steering, and an all-wheel, all-speed Traction Control System to maintain excellent stability. 3. Safety Comes Standard The NHTSA rated the 2024 five stars overall, including five stars in all frontal and side crashes. Additionally, the four-wheel disc anti-lock brakes are augmented by Brake Assist, a technology that detects and augments emergency braking. If a driver accidentally presses the brake and the accelerator at the same time, the Brake Override System engages to reduce throttle input and maximize brake input to prevent accidental acceleration. But the most impressive safety feature by far is the Eyesight technology, which uses multiple cameras to detect changes in traffic conditions to automatically respond when the Advanced Adaptive Cruise Control is engaged. It offers everything from pre-collision braking to lane departure and sway warnings, and even an Automatic Emergency Steering feature. 4. A Comfy Interior and Great Cargo Capacity The Crosstrek sports a roomy 56.8 inches of shoulder room, 42.9 inches of legroom, and 39.8 inches of headroom in the front seats, with almost as much for rear passengers. A total of 100.5 cubic feet of passenger volume makes the Crosstrek a great ride to haul friends, family, and pets wherever you'd like to go. If cargo takes priority and the already-roomy 19.9 cubic feet of storage isn't enough, simply fold down the 60/40 split back seat and let the hatch compartment soar to 54.7 cubic feet.

Getting your Subaru's oil changed regularly is vital for maintaining the performance and longevity of your vehicle, but how do you know how often you should be getting an oil change? Here are a few suggestions from your Subaru dealership. more How Often Should Your Subaru Get an Oil Change? Advice from Your Subaru Dealership? Consult Your Owner's Manual Take a look at your owner's manual to find the specific frequency that is right for your vehicle. In most cases, the right interval is somewhere between 6000 and 7,500 miles, but this does vary. Normal vs. Severe Driving Conditions If your daily driving primarily consists of mostly highway miles, with minimal stop-and-go traffic and no extreme conditions, you can usually follow Subaru's general recommendation to get the oil changed every 6,000 to 7,500 miles. If your Subaru regularly faces harsh conditions such as heavy traffic, extreme temperatures, frequent short trips, towing, or off-road adventures, it's wise to opt for more frequent oil changes. In these cases, changing the oil every 3,000 to 5,000 miles may be necessary to maintain engine health.
 If you're not sure what's right for you, come and talk to us. Synthetic vs. Conventional Oil Most modern Subarus are designed to use synthetic oil, which has a longer service life compared to conventional oil. Synthetic oil can often go between 6,000 and 10,000 miles before requiring a change. However, Subarus are known for their longevity, and if you're driving an older one, it might need traditional oil. Conventional oil needs more frequent oil changes; typically around every 3,000 to 5,000 miles. Check your owner's manual to determine the recommended oil type for your specific Subaru model. Regular Oil Level Checks and Maintenance Regardless of the recommended interval for changing your Subaru's oil, it's essential to periodically check the oil levels. Maintaining the correct oil level is crucial for engine health, and low oil levels can lead to damage over time. Be alert for any warning lights on your dashboard or unusual engine noises. These indicators could point to engine problems that require immediate attention, even if, according to the schedule, it's not yet time to change out the oil. Come in and see us or give us a call at Sunset Hills Subaru. Our team of experts can give you advice about the ideal interval for changing out the oil in your Subaru or schedule ​your vehicle for an oil change right here at our dealership.

The perfect Subaru for off-roading and everyday driving alike is now at your Subaru dealership: the 2024 Subaru Outback. It's a car loaded with impressive standard features, has lots of room for transporting cargo, and has a suspension system that makes even the harshest bumps feel smooth. more 5 Impressive Features of the 2024 Subaru Outback At Your Subaru Dealership 1. Its Suspension and Ground Clearance The Outback's suspension system and ground clearance are technically two different features, but they share a job when you're off-roading: they let your car easily crawl over obstacles. The 9.5 inches of ground clearance makes it simple to get over logs and rocks littering the area in front of you. Meanwhile, the car has a super strong suspension system that allows you to feel comfortable while getting over those large obstacles. 2. Its Safety Suite The 2024 release of this Outback is the safest one that's ever been made. Pre-collision braking works to help you prevent crashes. If a crash occurs, your car manages the throttle to reduce the impact of the collision. Lane departure warning helps you avoid getting too close to the next lane by sending you an alert and applying corrective steering when needed. The safety suite also has adaptable cruise control that helps you stay a good distance behind the car ahead of you. It helps you stay centered in your lane, too. 3. Its Towing Ability Drivers who'll need to hitch up a trailer now and then will be pleased with the Outback's maximum towing capacity. You can pull 3,500 pounds behind the car with ease depending on the trim. An accessory trailer hitch is standard on the Touring XT, Limited XT, Wilderness, and Onyx Addition XT and available on other models. 4. Its Cargo Space You should have no problem transporting 11 suitcases in the Outback's regular cargo area. The area is 33 cubic feet in size. Although, if you need a little more room, then you can fold down the back row. That expands the space enough to let you carry approximately 23 carry-on suitcases, which is certainly enough for most trips you'll take in the car. 5. The Comfortable, Flexible Cabin The Outback's cabin was designed to provide the most comfort possible to everybody who spends time inside it. A 12-way power adjustable driver seat is available and has four-way power lumbar adjustment so it can contour to your body perfectly. A heated steering wheel, as well as heated and ventilated front seats, are available. All of the seats are clad in soft Nappa leather to provide a little luxury for all five passengers.
