SPRING PREPARATION FOR YOUR FLEET

By Tina Ormond on Mar 3, 2026 11:15:00 AM

Why Now is the Time to Protect Your Investment

As a busy business owner, you’ve likely spent the last few months with one goal: keeping the wheels turning despite the snow, ice, and salt. Winter is a season of survival, and when you’re focused on getting the job done, it’s easy for small vehicle issues to fall through the cracks.

But with spring just around the corner, the "survival mode" of winter needs to shift into "optimization mode."

Weathering the Storm: Your Guide to Mastering the Winter Roads

By Tina Ormond on Feb 26, 2026 1:15:00 PM

It is no secret that this winter is giving us a run for our money. We are seeing conditions that many of us haven’t encountered in over twenty years, and honestly, even the most seasoned drivers among us can get a little rusty when the snow starts piling up. When the landscape turns into a winter wonderland, it’s easy to get caught up in the beauty of it, but the reality of hitting the road can be a bit more daunting. At DeBoer’s Auto, we want to make sure you are moving through your day with total confidence. Our goal is always to help you live life uninterrupted, and that starts with ensuring your vehicle is a sanctuary of safety rather than a source of stress.

Winter’s Silent Engine Killer: Why Your Oil Change Can’t Wait

By Tina Ormond on Feb 24, 2026 1:14:59 PM

We’ve all been there: it’s six in the morning, the windshield is wearing a thick coat of frost, and the air has that bite that makes you regret every life choice that led you out of bed. You turn the key, and instead of a confident roar, your engine gives you a hesitant, groaning crank.

While most of us immediately blame the battery—and often rightfully so—there is a hidden culprit swirling inside your engine blocks that is equally frustrated by the freezing temperatures: your motor oil.

Safe Travels, Navigating the Height of Winter Visibility

By Tina Ormond on Feb 19, 2026 1:15:00 PM

There is a specific kind of "winter morning" feeling we all know too well. You’re bundled up, the coffee is hot in your cup, and you walk outside only to find your car encased in a thick shell of frost or buried under a fresh layer of snow. We’ve all felt that temptation: you clear a tiny "porthole" in the ice just big enough to see the road directly in front of you, blast the defroster, and hope for the best as you pull out of the driveway.

Why Cold is the Culprit for Winter Dash Lights

By Tina Ormond on Feb 17, 2026 1:15:00 AM

When the Shiver Hits the Sensor:
There is a specific kind of sinking feeling that happens only in the winter. You’ve finally scraped the frost off your windshield, the heater is just starting to take the edge off the chill, and you’re ready to get on with your day—only to have a glowing amber light pop up on your dashboard. Whether it’s the dreaded check engine light or the horseshoe-shaped tire pressure warning, your heart sinks. You start wondering if your morning is about to be derailed by a costly repair.

Keeping Your Wheels on the Road: Why Your Suspension is Your Best Safety Feature

By Tina Ormond on Feb 12, 2026 1:15:00 PM

When we think about vehicle safety, our minds usually jump straight to airbags, seatbelts, or those fancy new sensors that beep when we drift out of a lane. But there is a silent hero working beneath you every single second you’re behind the wheel: your steering and suspension system.

At DeBoer’s Auto, we see it all the time—drivers who invest in the highest-rated winter tires but still feel their car "wandering" or slipping when the weather gets rough. The truth is, your tires are only as good as the system pushing them into the pavement.

Your Suspension does more than give you a smooth ride

By Tina Ormond on Feb 10, 2026 11:45:00 AM

We’ve all been there—hitting a pothole that feels like it might swallow the car whole, or feeling every tiny pebble in the road vibrating through the steering wheel. While we often associate our car’s suspension strictly with a "cloud-like" ride, it is actually one of the most critical safety systems in your vehicle.
