Services and vehicles
Yes. We repair domestic, Asian and European cars, trucks and SUVs. Call us if you drive something unusual and we will tell you honestly whether we are the right shop.
We handle brake repair, check engine light and engine diagnostics, A/C repair, battery service, transmission service, oil changes, tires and alignment, suspension and steering, and general repairs such as power windows, locks and lights.
Common signs are squealing or grinding when you stop, a soft or sinking pedal, the car pulling to one side, or a brake warning light. If you notice any of these, have the brakes inspected right away.
If the light is steady, schedule a diagnosis soon. If it is flashing, or the car runs rough, reduce your speed and have it checked right away to avoid further damage.
Warm air can come from low refrigerant, a leak, a failing compressor or an electrical fault. We test the system to find the actual cause and give you an estimate before repairing anything.
