Power Steering Service
The power steering device in your vehicle makes it so you have the ability to easily turn or maneuver your vehicle at any speed with little effort. This device is crucial when it comes to safely operating your vehicle, and the device requires flushes to function efficiently without the need for repair or replacement. How to tell if you need power steering service: • Increasingly difficult to turn or maneuver your vehicle. • Spontaneous steering assistance. • Steering wheel noises. • Squealing belts. Our technicians have the skills to promptly diagnose what is causing failure in your power steering system and determine if the system needs replacing or maintenance like a fluid flush. Contact us today! -
Winter Tires
When it comes to the harsh winter season, the type of tires you have on your vehicle is important, especially where you drive. Winter tires are specifically engineered to have the best traction in the cold and are branded with a mountain accompanied by a snowflake. This symbol means the tire complies with severe snow standards. There are some all-weather tires that also are branded with the mountain and snowflake tamp as well. Why buy winter tires: • Prolonged life between summer and winter tires. • Better snow handling. • Incredible performance in the cold. Our tire professionals can help you find the tires that fit your needs and budget, whether you’re looking for designated summer and winter tire combos or an all-season tire. Contact us today! -
Fuel Filter
The duty of the fuel filter is to screen out unwanted particles that may be in with the fuel to ensure that the fuel that reaches the engine is clean and free of these harmful particles. Fuel filter replacement is regular maintenance that aids in your vehicle’s lifespan and overall efficiency. Signs you need a fuel filter replacement: • Difficulty starting your vehicle. • Components in your fuel system start failing. • Loud noises from your fuel pump. • Rough idling and misfiring. • Vehicle stalling. Our technicians can diagnose to see if you are in need of a new fuel filter. Ask about a fuel filter replacement the next time you stop in for scheduled maintenance. Contact us today! -
Shocks and Struts
Shocks and struts are the main components of the suspension system that stabilizes the vehicle when on uneven surfaces and keep your tires on the tires on the road, whether you’re turning, braking, or accelerating. Shocks absorb the bounce, which keeps your ride more comfortable on those bumpy roads. Signs of worn shocks and struts: • The vehicle is not level. • Tire bouncing. • Unstable highway handling. • Vehicle squatting. • Strange tire wear. • Fluid leaks near the shock and strut areas. Our technicians can efficiently remove and replace your old shocks and struts with quality and reliable new ones — returning your vehicle to a more stable and comfortable ride once more. Contact us today! -
Suspension Service
The suspension is a large system that singlehandedly keeps your vehicle ride comfortable. This system is made up of springs, shock absorbers, tires, and even tire air, all of which contribute to the suspension system. This system ensures a smooth ride by absorbing the impacts from bumps in the road. A damaged suspension can lead to the loss of control over your vehicle. Signs you need suspension service: • Bumpy and uncomfortable ride. • Uneven tire treads. • Uneven vehicle body. • Unstable vehicle body. • Uneven steering. Our technicians can diagnose what part of the suspension system needs attending to, whether it’s the shocks and struts, tires, or if the wheels are out of alignment. Contact us today for all your suspension needs! -
Check Engine Light Service
Your dashboard is the way your vehicle communicates with you, from informing you that needing more windshield wiper fluid to low fuel; however, some lights may not be as straightforward as the others. Your check engine light, also known as the service light, tells you when something may be or is wrong with your vehicle. If this light is flashing, immediate attention is needed. The signs you need diagnostics are: • Service light continuously stays on. • Service light is flashing. • Abnormal vehicle sounds when the service light is on. Our technicians can perform a full diagnosis of your service light and come up with a plan to have the issue taken care of and the code reset and removed. For a complete service light diagnostic solution, contact us today! -
Engine Air Filter
The engine air filter is located at the front of the engine compartment and its function is to trap outside debris like bugs, dirt, and sand before it ends up in the engine, allowing only clean air into the heart of your vehicle. Signs you need a new engine air filter: • Low horsepower. • Sooty, black smoke emitting from the exhaust pipe. • Smell of fuel when starting your vehicle. • Physical filter looks dirty. • Check Engine Light is on. We have the skills to check and inform you of your engine air filter’s performance and inform you if the unit needs to be replaced. For an engine air filter replacement with your next scheduled maintenance, call us today! -
Battery Replacement
The battery is the heart of the electrical system in your vehicle. Acting as the mechanism that starts your vehicle and ignites the internal combustion engine that puts your vehicle into motion. Only when the vehicle is started, and the systems are supplied with the correct amount of power does the alternator step in to keep the battery charged while battery demands fluctuate. The signs your vehicle battery is dying are: • Check engine light is on. • Vehicle engine is slow to start. • Battery casing is warped. • Battery is over three years old. • Vehicle lights are dim. • Electrical issues. • Battery connectors are corroded. • Rotten egg smell is coming from underneath the hood. We have the tools and equipment to check your batter’s efficiency and replace your battery when necessary. If you need a new battery, we also offer quality batteries and ensure that your battery is professionally replaced. Trust our technicians to get the job done right. Contact us today!
