Not something we see very often!
A customer came in with the complaint of a slow leak in one of their tires. We took the tire off of its rim to see what had punctured it to find that a whole blade had gone through the tire!
You never know what you will find when working on cars!

This is what happens when the clutch stops engaging on an A/C compressor! The bearing on the compressor wore out and caused this terrible squeaking sound!
If your vehicle is making any unfamiliar or concerning noises, give us a call at our Townsend location at (302) 378-7933, or Newark location at (302) 369-3033 to set up an appointment to get your vehicle looked at by one of our skilled tech’s today!

This customer came in with the ABS and traction control light on their dashboard. After diagnosing the issue, our tech found that the magnetic ring on the back of the wheel hub bearing had broken. The vehicle's wheel speed sensor reads this ring and sends the signal to your speedometer, which tells you how fast your vehicle is moving. While this broken magnetic ring didn’t cause any false speed readings, it did cause the two lights to turn on. Below you can see where the ring had broken, compared to a brand new wheel hub bearing, with the ring still intact!

One of our techs went to check the filters on a customers vehicle, and when they went to check on the cabin air filter, they noticed that a bunch of napkins had gotten sucked into the inlet at the front of the filter! These were just napkins the customer was storing in their glove box. This was causing a restriction of airflow, which led to very weak performance from the HVAC system in the vehicle. (It didn’t help that the cabin air filter itself was quite dirty when the tech had pulled it out). It can be the smallest things that lead to larger issues in a vehicle, and you won’t know the cause until a mechanic takes a look!

It's that time of year again! The weather is getting warmer, and everyone is turning up their A/Cs.

A lot of customers have been calling with concerns about their vehicles shaking while driving. This is a common concern during snowy conditions. The snow is freezing behind and around your vehicles wheels, causing them to feel off balance due to the added weight from the ice. The best way to fix this is to make sure all of the ice is cleaned off of your wheels before driving, and the easiest way to fix it is by going through a car wash!
