When the temperature drops, the safety and reliability of your vehicle become our top priorities. For us, car care isn't just about repairs; it’s about helping people live life uninterrupted. The best way to keep your life rolling smoothly and safely through the winter is by equipping your vehicle with the correct tires.
You may be relying on your "all-season" tires, but the truth is, once the mercury dips, they're not really built for all seasons. There’s a critical difference between a standard tire and a winter tire that boils down to specialized chemistry and design, and it starts long before the first snow falls.

Here in Northwest New Jersey, we love our small-town charm, but we know the heavy snow and challenging weather are just a fact of winter life. As local professionals and homeowners, you rely on your vehicle to handle it all—getting you to work, shuttling the family, and keeping you safe. Being caught unprepared can truly interrupt your busy life.

That’s why, here at DeBoer’s Auto, our entire purpose is to help people live life uninterrupted. And the best way we know how to do that during the toughest season is with our comprehensive Winter Vehicle Check.

Van lifers — you know who you are.
You’re the people who’ve poured your heart, weekends, and paychecks into turning a van into your home on wheels. You’ve chased mountain views, beach sunsets, and wide-open highways. But as the temperatures drop and the leaves start to crunch under your tires, your season of adventure might be winding down.

We all know that winter prep matters for vehicles that stay on the road — but what about the ones that don’t? How you prepare your van for its winter hibernation can make a huge difference when it’s time for that spring awakening.

When winter hits, your battery feels it first. Cold weather can drain power fast, leaving you stranded when you least expect it. At DeBoer’s Auto, we want to help you avoid that frustration — because your life shouldn’t stop when your car won’t start. You deserve to live life uninterrupted.

To Repair or Not to Repair: That Is the Question
"Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The squeaks and rattles of outrageous mileage,
Or to take arms against a sea of wrenches—
And by opposing… fix them."

At DeBoer’s Auto, this Shakespearean dilemma plays out more often than you might think. Customers often come in with a familiar look — part confusion, part concern — and ask: “Should I repair it, or should I move on?”

It’s spooky season, and while the decorations are up and the candy bowls are full, there might be something else giving you chills this October — those strange, spooky noises coming from your car! 👻

Don’t worry, you’re not being haunted… but your vehicle might be trying to tell you something. Our ASE Certified Technicians at DeBoer’s Auto are here to help you translate those eerie sounds before they turn into full-blown automotive horror stories.

It's fall, and October is Car Care Awareness Month; it’s the perfect time to make sure your vehicle is safe, reliable, and ready for whatever the road brings. Cooler temperatures, changing road conditions, and upcoming holiday travel can all take a toll on your car. That’s why it’s so important to stay ahead with a seasonal vehicle evaluation — and DeBoer’s Auto is here to make that easy and affordable.

We understand that unexpected car repairs can sometimes come at the worst time, especially with the holiday season right around the corner. That’s why we’ve partnered with TechNet and Synchrony to offer flexible financing options that help you keep your car in top shape without stretching your budget.

Fleet owners and drivers are feeling the squeeze this year. In 2025, the pressure is real — demand for deliveries keeps climbing, but the time, people, and parts to keep things moving seem harder to come by. When every vehicle in your fleet matters, one breakdown can throw off an entire day, a week, or even a contract.

That’s why fall is the best time to take control before winter takes control of you. You can’t change the weather or fix the global supply chain, but you can make sure your fleet is ready to face what’s ahead. And in fall 2025, when parts are taking longer to arrive and the repair backlog is growing, getting ahead isn’t just a good idea — it’s a business strategy.

At DeBoer’s Auto, we believe that leadership isn’t just about running a business—it’s about inspiring others, building trust, and creating a culture that feels like family. On this National Boss’s Day 2025, we’re proud to honor Bill DeBoer, Jr., Owner and Visionary of DeBoer’s Auto, whose leadership, innovation, and heart have shaped who we are today.

From its inception, DeBoer’s Auto has been grounded in the belief that customer satisfaction should always be at the center of everything we do. Bill has carried forward the legacy his father began, taking the reins with humility, purpose, and a spirit of innovation. His philosophy is simple but powerful: no matter what business you’re in, you’re in the business of serving people.

When was the last time you thought about the fluids in your car—other than your oil change? Most of us know oil changes are essential every 3,000 to 5,000 miles to keep the engine protected. But the truth is, your vehicle relies on several other fluids that are just as important.
