There are two important types of belts in your vehicle, which are your timing belt and serpentine belts. Timing belts are vital for your engine to start and function as it transfers the power from the camshaft to power the crankshaft; if this belt were to break, your engine would immediately stop working. Serpentine belts are often called drive belts and power different components within your vehicle like the radiator, power steering pump, A/C compressor, alternator, and more. Hoses play another vital part in your vehicle’s efficiency. Types of hoses are fuel hoses, brake hoses, coolant/radiator hoses, power steering hoses, and heater hoses. Hoses are essential for transferring coolant and other fluids through your vehicle to prevent things like overheating, power loss, poor braking ability, and more. The signs you need a belt replacement are: • The engine is steaming. • A/C failure. • The feeling of something catching, vibrating, or slipping while driving. • Check engine lights or other dashboard lights turn on. • Leaks from your vehicle like brake fluid, coolant, fuel, etc. We have the tools and equipment to find any fluid leaks or significant belt wear and tear as well as diagnose if you have any hoses or belts that need replacing. Trust our technicians to get the job done right. Contact us today!

The air conditioning unit is a combination of various components that work together to keep you cool even on the hottest of days. It is important to get regular maintenance and inspections to ensure optimal efficiency. The signs your air conditioning needs service are: • Vents are blowing warm air even on a cool setting. • Vent settings are not adjusting correctly. • The inside of the vehicle is only slightly cooler than the outside. • Strange sounds are coming from your A/C unit. We have the tools and equipment to check any efficiency or component problems like refrigerant leaks, fan issues, compressor problems, A/C clutch replacements, and more. Trust our technicians to get the job done right. Contact us today!

Wheel balancing is a process of distributing the weight of the tire and wheel assembly evenly when traveling at high speeds. This process required the wheel to be removed from the vehicle and placed on our wheel balancer and spun to decide where the weight should be distributed to. It’s common for a tire to become unbalanced after hitting a large pothole, curb, or if you leave your vehicle parked for extended periods of time. Signs you need wheel balancing: • Steering wheel vibration. • Vibration in the seats or floorboards. • Uneven tread wear. Our technicians efficiently remove and remount your tires professionally, which prolongs the life of your tires and makes your ride more comfortable. Contact us today!

The serpentine is a long belt that mobilizes and delivers power to components in the engine like the alternator, water pump, air conditioning compressor, power steering pump, and air pump. These belts on average can last between 50,000–100,000 miles but can depend on the vehicle, conditions, and the amount you drive. Having this belt inspected during maintenance check-ups can prevent more serious problems. Signs your serpentine belt needs replacing: • Strained or tight steering. • The physical belt is cracked. • Vehicle overheating. • High pitch squealing sounds from the engine. • Air conditioning is not working. Our technicians have the skills and tools to replace and secure your new serpentine belt and make sure further damage was not done. Contact us today!

When your vehicle is down, immobilized, or stuck in a ditch leaving you or your loved ones stranded on a backroad or highway, our professionals are here to ensure that you and your vehicle are brought safely out of harm’s way. Signs you need a tow: • Collision. • Engine stalled. • Electrical failure. • Overheating. We offer towing options to ensure your vehicle can be efficiently brought into a shop and out of danger.

Vehicles are complex pieces of machinery with various components and systems that are constantly needed for maximum efficiency. It’s important that when a dashboard light comes on or your vehicle is not working properly that you bring it to a professional to look at it before a small problem becomes a big one. With state-of-the-art diagnostic technology, our technicians can read and understand the codes your vehicle is sending to help pinpoint your vehicle’s issue. The signs you need diagnostics are: • Vehicle electronics are unreliable. • Vehicle shutters when it stops. • Black smoke or excessive white smoke from the tailpipe. • Strange noises. • Abnormal smells. • Illuminated dashboard lights. Our technicians have the skills and equipment to diagnose your vehicle’s issue, as well as come up with a solution. Whether it’s the engine, cooling system, or even electrical issues, trust our technicians to find the solution that best works for you. Contact us today!

The drivetrain is a component that delivers power to your vehicle, transferring energy to the wheels while the differential allows wheels on the same axel to spin at different speeds. Other components of the drivetrain are the transmission, CV joint, U-join, differential, driveshaft, and axel shafts. There are four types of drivetrains, front-wheel drive (FWD), rear-wheel drive (RWD), all-wheel drive (AWD), and four-wheel drive (4WD). Signs you need drivetrain service: • Shifting problems. • Check engine light. • Vibrations. • Unusual noises. • Fluid leaks. We have the skills and equipment to diagnose and fix the problem when it comes to a large system like the drivetrain. Whether you need replacements, repairs, or diagnostics — for quality and reliable service, call us today!

Flat repair comes in handy when your tire can be fixed rather than replaced. The wheel is removed from the vehicle and plugged and adhered with a sealant, sealing the tire, then professionally placed back onto your vehicle and making it safe for you to drive once more. Signs you may need flat repair: • A tire puncture that is not in the shoulder or sidewall of the tire. • Constant loss of tire pressure. • Vehicle shaking. Not every tire can be repaired, but when it can be we have the tools and skills to ensure you will be safe on the road until you are ready for your next set of tires. Contact us today!
