Why does your windshield fog up the second you get in the car? While condensation is natural, a dirty, clogged cabin air filter can make your defroster work overtime and keep moisture trapped inside!

Replacing the cabin filter helps:

- Speed up your defroster.
- Improve air quality.
- Reduce that musty cabin smell.

Give your car the gift of clear vision, and get in touch with our team! When was the last time you replaced your cabin filter?

If your car is bouncing, rocking, or diving forward when you brake, your shocks and struts are officially ready for retirement! Worn suspension parts don't just make for an uncomfortable ride, but they reduce tire grip and increase your stopping distance. We can restore your smooth, stable ride!

Don't forget the antifreeze/coolant on your next road trip! This fluid does two important jobs in November:

1) Keeps your engine from freezing.
2) Helps your heater blow warm air!

We can check your coolant's level and effectiveness to ensure your engine is protected, and your passengers stay toasty warm on the way to your destination! Have you ever had car trouble on a road trip, especially around the holidays? If so, share your story with us.

You hear the term "horsepower" all the time, but where did the measurement actually originate? The term "horsepower" was coined by James Watt (inventor and mechanical engineer). While selling his engines, he was asked a question. How many horses could one engine replace? This gave Watt the idea to create a new piece of clever marketing, a new unit of power to represent this concept to the farmers and miners he was selling to: “Horsepower”.

If you're experiencing diminished horsepower, turn to us for top-notch engine diagnostics and repairs!

You finally need the heat, but your fan is only working on HIGH (or maybe just one low setting)!! This is a super common problem, and we're here to fix it!

The culprit is often the blower motor resistor. It's a small part, but when it fails, your controls go haywire. We can quickly diagnose and replace this component so you can enjoy all the cozy fan speeds you paid for.

An emergency kit is a small investment that offers huge peace of mind when you're stranded. What should your basic kit include?

- Warm Blanket & Water

We can check your battery and fluids, but your kit is up to you! What's the most unusual but helpful item you keep in your trunk? Share your wisdom!
