In St. John's, changing conditions across Newfoundland and Labrador can affect a vehicle throughout the year. The provincial winter-maintenance season runs from November through April, and winter conditions can change quickly with drifting or blowing snow. Snowfall varies widely across the province, while freeze-thaw cycles can form potholes suddenly.

A hard impact may damage a tire or wheel, or leave the steering pulling or the suspension making a new noise. Plan service around the work and conditions of each season. As winter approaches, check tire condition, battery performance, wipers and lights; studded tires are normally permitted from November 1 through April 30.

During winter, have new vibration, pulling or clunks checked after a pothole strike. From May to October, provincial summer maintenance includes pothole and asphalt repairs, so it is a practical season to address alignment concerns or worn suspension parts. Before a longer drive, inspect tire pressure, lights and fluid levels.

For St. John's drivers, arrange seasonal maintenance when it fits your plans, rather than waiting for a warning light or a handling change. Compare the listed St. John's shops on MapleDriven.ca to see which offer the service you need and what they include. Describe any symptoms and ask whether the work includes an inspection as well as a repair.

You can request a time through MapleDriven.ca, or book there when a shop offers that option.
