Our drivers can avoid major repairs by keeping their vehicles well-maintained with our proactive service program. Many issues become costly because drivers wait too long, or rely on warning lights instead of routine inspections. Our technicians truly care about your vehicle’s health and help you address minor concerns before they become expensive problems.


Proper vehicle maintenance comes with several advantages, including:

  • Improved safety – Routine maintenance reduces your chances of an accident caused by worn brakes, failing steering components, or other mechanical issues.
  • Money savings – Early detection of problems prevents costly breakdowns, extends part life, and reduces unexpected repair bills.
  • Damage prevention – Regular inspections help catch leaks, overheating issues, worn parts, and failing sensors before serious damage occurs.


We’re dedicated to keeping your vehicle in peak condition. Below are just a few of the many services our technicians are qualified to perform:


Battery & Ignition System

  • Alternator:  Generates power for all electrical components. Signs of failure include dim lights, weak battery, or electrical issues.
  • Battery: Provides starting power and supports the charging system. Slow cranking or electrical problems may indicate failure.
  • Spark Plugs & Ignition Coils: Essential for proper combustion. Worn components cause rough idle, misfires, and poor fuel economy.
  • Starter Motor & Solenoid: Responsible for cranking the engine. Clicking or no response when turning the key signals failing components.
  • Ignition Wires & Modules: Support proper spark delivery. Failure leads to misfires, stalling, and reduced performance.


Heating, Cooling & Air Conditioning

  • Radiator & Cooling System: Keeps the engine at proper temperature. Leaks, overheating, or coolant loss indicate needed service.
  • Thermostat: Regulates coolant flow. Temperature fluctuations may mean failure.
  • Water Pump: Circulates coolant through the engine. Overheating or coolant leaks indicate replacement is needed.
  • AC Compressor & Clutch: Critical for cold air. Noise, warm air, or inconsistent cooling are signs of failure.
  • AC Condenser & Evaporator: Help cool cabin air and control refrigerant flow. Reduced cooling performance may indicate issues.
  • Blower Motor & Resistor: Controls interior airflow. Failure causes weak or inconsistent ventilation.
  • Heater Core: Provides cabin heat. Sweet smell, fogged windows, or rapid coolant loss indicate problems.


Engine & Fuel System

  • Fuel Injectors: Deliver fuel to the engine. Hard starts, poor MPG, or fuel smell may indicate issues.
  • Engine Sensors (O2, MAF, MAP, etc.): Monitor engine function. Sensor faults trigger check engine lights and drivability problems.
  • PCV System: Controls crankcase ventilation. Failure leads to oil leaks, rough idle, or misfires.
  • EGR Valve: Controls emissions and affects performance. Rough idle or stalling may indicate a faulty valve.
  • Emissions & Check Engine Light Diagnostics: We diagnose and repair emissions-related faults for proper performance and compliance.


Powertrain & Driveline

  • Engine Service & Diagnostics: We diagnose performance issues, misfires, noises, leaks, and drivability concerns.
  • Transmission Service: Includes fluid service, filter replacement (if applicable), and performance checks. We diagnose slip, rough shifts, or delayed engagement.
  • CV Axles & Joints: Clicking or vibration during turns may indicate wear.
  • Wheel Bearings: Grinding, humming, or play in the wheel suggests replacement is needed.
  • Differential Service: We service and maintain differentials to prevent noise, vibration, and premature wear.


Suspension & Steering

  • Struts & Shocks: Affect ride comfort and safety. Bouncing, instability, or uneven tire wear signal replacement.
  • Control Arms & Ball Joints: Essential for steering and stability. Clunks, pulling, or vibration indicate issues.
  • Tie Rods & Steering Components: Loose steering or uneven tire wear may mean failure.
  • Rack & Pinion: Noises or difficulty steering may require repair or replacement.


Belts, Filters & Hoses

  • Serpentine Belt: Powers multiple components. Squealing, cracking, or power loss indicates wear.
  • Air, Cabin & Fuel Filters: Keep systems clean and efficient. Clogged filters cause reduced performance.
  • Radiator & Heater Hoses: Carry coolant. Leaks or overheating suggest replacement.
  • Timing Belt/Chain (If applicable to the vehicle): Critical for engine timing. Failure leads to severe engine damage — follow manufacturer intervals.
