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!

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.

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 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!

The lights on your vehicle are extremely important, whether it’s illuminating the road for you at night, making your vehicle more visible in the fog, informing someone behind you that you are stopping, taking a turn, or going in reverse.

Signs you need a light replacement: • Faster turn signal clicking. • Dimming bulb. • Requirement to use high beams all the time.

The exhaust system on your vehicle is more than just the tailpipe and muffler. This system gathers gasses from cylinders, removes harmful substances, reduces noise levels, and releases cleaner gasses through the exhaust pipes. These components synchronize their jobs with precision for the system to work and enhance or sustain the vehicle’s performance. Signs you need exhaust service • Annoying and irritating odors inside your vehicle. • Loss of fuel efficiency. • Strange vibrations while driving. • Illuminated check engine light. • Louder noise from both the engine and exhaust. We have the skills and equipment to repair or replace your exhaust system. Whether it is a muffler, catalytic converter, or tailpipe, we can diagnose and get you back on the road once more.

Wiper blades are a crucial factor in your ability to see the road by swiping rain from the windshield and using windshield fluid to clean your windshield from dust, bugs, and other small debris.

Signs you need new windshield wipers: • Streaks when in use. • Missing/uneven rubber on the wiper blade. • Smudging even after cleaning. Our technicians can provide insight into the best wipers that fit your needs and can tell you how much more life your wipers have. Contact us today!

The transmission is the vehicle’s brain and is a giant gearbox that determines how your vehicle shifts. The transmission transforms the combustion created by the engine and morphs it into real power. Regular maintenance of the transmission is necessary to sustain the life of the transmission and your vehicle. Servicing a transmission is similar to servicing the engine, with an oil and fluid change, inspecting panels, replacing or cleaning the filter, and more. Signs you need transmission service: • Leaking transmission fluid. • Strange transmission odor. • Check engine or transmission light. • Poor acceleration. • Harsh idling. • Poor shifting. • Slipping. Our technicians have the tools and skills to efficiently inspect and service the transmission. Contact us today for transmission service!
