ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS
 

Your car battery supplies the power to start your engine. Once started, your alternator pumps electricity to the vehicle’s various electrical systems. Wearing or aging of your auto battery or alternator can prevent your vehicle from properly starting or maintaining electrical power.

 

We start with a complete Electrical System Test, checking the key components including:

 

*Alternator

*Starter

*Car battery

*Car battery cables

 

If we find a problem, our expert technicians can repair or replace components and get you back on the road with peace of mind.

 

Starting and charging problems may require that you replace your car battery. We’ll determine if a new battery is necessary, or if another repair is needed. Our services include:

 

ED-18 Battery Check:

 

This simple and quick early detection test shows if your auto battery is good or bad. It also detects if the battery is in marginal condition, predicting at what temperature it will likely fail.

 

Replacement:

 

We’ll install high quality Interstate® brand car batteries with excellent warranties to meet your needs.

 

Maintenance:

 

Battery terminal cleaning and anti-corrosion spraying ensures your vehicle starts in any weather.

CLUTCH REPAIRS
 

Clutches wear out. In fact, it's common for a clutch to be replaced before a car reaches the end of its lifespan. That's because clutches experience a certain amount of wear and tear in the normal course of use. Predicting how long a clutch will last, however, is like solving a complex equation with lots of variables. Any of those variables can make a big difference in how the equation comes out. You'll hear stories about clutches that last more than 100,000 miles (160,934 kilometers) and other stories about clutches that wear out in less than 30,000 (48,280 kilometers).

 

If you experience any of the following symptoms please don’t hesitate to bring in your car or truck for a free diagnosis:

 

*Clutch pedal travels to the floor with little resistance.

*Clutch feels soft when depressed.

*Unable to engage the transmission into gear.

*Slipping clutch.

*Clutch grabs as it engages.

*Vibration or noise coming from the clutch itself.

05

BRAKE REPAIRS
 

The parts in your brake system wear down over time and eventually need to be replaced. Replacing brake pads is the most common brake repair, because the pads erode each time you press the brake pedal. If the pads wear down too much without being replaced, the pads’ metal housing will make contact with the metal rotors, creating safety issues and potentially leading to rotor replacement too.

 

Here are some common signs to watch for:

 

*Brake warning light comes on while driving

*Brake fluid is low and/or appears dirty

*Grinding or squealing sounds when pressing the brake pedal

*Feeling a pulsation or "sponginess" when pressing the brake pedal

*Your vehicle steers or pulls to one side while braking
