Seeing a check engine light flash on never brings a joyous feeling. Some of the common causes for a check engine light to come on are a loose gas cap, a faulty oxygen sensor, bad spark plugs/plug wires, a faulty mass airflow sensor, or a failing catalytic converter. Regardless of the cause, it is important to have it looked at immediately to prevent further damage and costly repairs.

If you notice a burning rubber smell while driving, don't ignore it. That odor could be a sign that something under the hood needs attention. Common causes can include a loose or worn serpentine belt slipping against pulleys, a rubber hose coming into contact with a hot engine component, oil or other fluids leaking onto hot engine parts, or a stuck brake caliper causing excessive heat

If the smell is strong, accompanied by smoke, or your vehicle is not performing normally, pull over safely and have it inspected as soon as possible.

Your tires play a major role in keeping you safe on the road!

If you notice uneven tire wear or feel vibrations in your steering wheel, floorboard, or seat, it’s time to get your tires balanced.

If your car pulls to one side, your tread wears unevenly or prematurely, or your steering vibrates when accelerating, these are signs you need a wheel alignment.

Staying on top of these services will extend the life of your tires and keep your ride smooth and safe.

Our car's air conditioning should keep us cool, not push out unpleasant odors. If you are experiencing a musty or mildew odor when the air conditioning is on, it could mean that mold has entered and is remaining undrained in the evaporator of your cooling system. Eliminate those odors by running your heater on high for a little while to dry out the evaporator/heating core.

A flat tire can happen unexpectedly, which is why it is important to have a spare tire. When it comes to your spare, make sure you are maintaining proper pressure, limit your speed, and keep to short distances until you can get your tire replaced.

Summer heat is one thing, but heat under your hood is a whole different problem! Overheating can be caused by low coolant levels, a faulty thermostat, a broken radiator fan, or leaks in the cooling system.

Prevent costly repairs and further damage by pulling over safely, turning off the AC and turning on the heat, letting the engine cool before opening the hood, and contacting us so that we can get your car fixed and back on the road!

Summer is almost here! Before you hit the road to your favorite destination, make sure you remember to check your tires, monitor your fluid levels, have the battery inspected, and have your car's air conditioning checked.

In observance of Memorial Day, let us honor and remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice to protect our freedoms.

Don’t let a broken radiator hose leave you stranded! A damaged or leaking radiator hose can quickly lead to engine overheating and costly repairs if ignored. If you are experiencing coolant leaks, steam from under the hood, a sweet smell, or your temperature gauge climbing higher than normal, then it is time to have it looked at.
