Wheel Alignments

 While you may not always think about wheel alignment, it’s incredibly important to extend the life of your tires, suspension, and vehicle as a whole. Wheel alignment service could positively affect tire wear, gas mileage, and more.

You may need alignment services if:

  • The steering wheel pulls left or right when driving straight.
  • The steering wheel won’t stay level.
  • You feel vibrations when steering.
  • Your tire tread wears too quickly or unevenly.

Oxygen Sensors

The oxygen sensor in your vehicle is responsible for making sure the right amount of oxygen is being mixed with liquid fuel to ensure an efficient engine that burns as few harmful emissions as possible. If your check engine light is on, it could be your oxygen sensor.

Pumps

Your vehicle’s inner workings are heavily reliant on the fuel pump and the water pump. We provide repairs to both – read below for more details about the function of each.

Fuel Pump – this component ensures the proper flow of fuel to the engine. Ensuring the most efficient use of your gas.
Water Pump – this component cools the engine by supplying it with coolant.

Mufflers

The muffler on your vehicle is responsible for decreasing the noise pollution from your car. You’ll notice your vehicle needs repairs if it is louder than usual or making strange noises from the tailpipe.

Fuel Injection Service

Your engine won’t function properly if the air/fuel mixture is off. If you notice your engine idling strange or making other peculiar behaviors while you’re driving or idling, it’s time to contact us for fuel injection service!

Catalytic Converters

 Your car’s catalytic converter is part of your exhaust system and sits in between your engine and muffler. This component changes harmful emissions into less harmful emissions. You may need a new catalytic converter if:

  • You see a rapid decrease in fuel efficiency
  • The vehicle won’t start
  • There is no acceleration when you step on the gas
  • Your check engine light is on
  • Your vehicle fails the emissions test

Intake Manifolds

 The intake manifold is located on the top of the engine and is prone to failure. Usually, the failure occurs because of the constant fluctuation of heat and pressure, which causes cracks and leaks. You may need repairs if:

  • Engine oil looks milky
  • Coolant is leaking
  • The car backfires
  • Engine overheats
