Heating and Cooling System Repair in Springfield, VA
The heating and cooling system of your vehicle is one that shouldn’t be overlooked by any means. While it might not be something you regularly consider when planning out service visits for your Subaru model, here at Sheehy Subaru Springfield, we’ll be happy to inspect if you’ve been noticing issues with its performance.
The Heating and Cooling System
When you want to cool or heat up your vehicle’s cabin, there are several components that have to work together to produce the right results. The thermostat and water pump both work alongside the refrigerant to cool the high temperatures of the engine so that the air which flows into the cabin is appropriately cold. There’s also the radiator, which serves the purpose of dispersing the heat from the engine to simultaneously create warm air and prevent the motor from overheating. Because these systems are relatively straightforward in terms of their parts, it’s much easier to determine the cause of why your vehicle may suddenly be failing to generate your preferred temperature inside the cabin.
Warning Signs
Should your vehicle’s radiator begin to fail amidst your adventures in Springfield, you’ll likely first notice it when you try to warm up the interior of your car. If it’s unable to do so, then that’s almost certainly an indication of either damage that's been done to the component, or age taking a toll on its performance. On the other hand, if cooling the cabin is where your car is failing, then that can be a bit more tricky to find the culprit. It could simply be due to low refrigerant levels that need to be refilled, or the thermostat and water pump may need repairs. In either case, a trip to our Service Department will be the best course of action that you can take to get your car’s HVAC system restored.
Going Forward
Once you’ve gotten your vehicle back to its normal self for all commutes on I-95, it’s important to do your part to maintain its HVAC system. You should not worry about overusing the heating and cooling elements, as they’re designed for everyday use. That said, the only way to ensure they hold up under those conditions is by keeping the system serviced regularly. You can consult the Owner’s Manual of your Subaru Crosstrek, Outback, or WRX for the manufacturer guidelines on service timelines. Of course, if you’d like to have the advice of a professional on the matter, then you can come meet our talented team of technicians here at Sheehy Subaru Springfield!

Absolute great experience
“ Absolute great experience buying a new car from Chris LaPorte of Sheehy Subaru. He respected my time and wasn't pushy. Internet car dealers might be nice for shopping from home, but nothing beats having someone you can reach out to with a text message and getting a live person to respond. Chris was there with answers and helped me choose the right options for me. When it came time to take delivery, Chris came and picked me up at my house! Who else will do that for you? If you are looking for outstanding value in a new car and exceptional service, call my boy Chris LaPorte and check out the new Subarus. It's worth it! ”

Positive Experience
“ Sheehy Subaru of Springfield is the only place we would ever purchase a Subaru. And we have purchased or leased six different Subarus from Sheehy. Every experience with this dealership, from sales to service, has been positive. Our most recent purchase occurred at the beginning of December. We purchased a 2023 Outback, Wilderness Edition. Our sales associate, Shabir Baba, assisted us in ordering our car, kept us updated on its status, and guided us through the final delivery and purchase. If you are considering purchasing a Subaru call Sheehy and ask for Shabir, you will not regret it. ”
Liked my experience
“ I liked my experience buying my new Impreza at this location with Jay. Not sure if it was because I didn’t go by myself and came with someone, but my experience felt good. When I drove off the lot I didnt have the feeling of regret or remorse. I didn’t have “oh god, what have I done.” The car was worth the money and I got a beautiful apple/cranberry color. Thank you Jay! ”
