Determining Your Vehicle's Needs
Choosing the right oil change schedule depends on several factors. Your car's make, model, and age all play a big role. Newer cars often need oil changes less frequently than older ones.
Your driving habits also matter. Short trips and stop-and-go traffic can lead to more frequent oil changes. Extreme temperatures and towing heavy loads may require more frequent service too.
We check your owner's manual and use diagnostic tools to assess your car's needs. This helps us recommend the best oil change interval for your vehicle. We also perform a 120-point inspection during each oil change to catch any potential issues early.

- Assessing air and cabin filter conditions

What Our Customers Say About Us
Understanding Brake Systems and Services
Brake systems are the difference between vehicle safety and an accident. They involve multiple components working together to slow and stop your car. Regular maintenance and prompt repairs help ensure reliable braking performance.
Components of Brake Systems
Brake systems have several key parts. Brake pads press against rotors to create friction and slow the wheels. Calipers hold the pads and squeeze them onto the rotors. Brake fluid transmits force from the pedal to the calipers.
Rotors are metal discs attached to the wheels. They spin with the wheels and provide a surface for the pads to grip. Brake lines carry fluid throughout the system.
Some cars have drum brakes on the rear wheels instead of disc brakes. These use brake shoes that press outward against a drum to slow the wheel.
Signs You Need Brake Repair
Pay attention to how your brakes feel and sound. Squealing or grinding noises often mean worn brake pads. A soft or spongy pedal could indicate air in the brake lines or low fluid.
If your car pulls to one side when braking, you may have a stuck caliper. Vibration in the pedal or steering wheel while braking usually points to warped rotors.
Our free brake inspection can catch issues early. We recommend having your brakes checked at least once a year.
Types of Brake Service and Repairs
Common brake services include pad replacement, rotor resurfacing or replacement, and fluid changes. Brake pad replacement is needed when pads wear thin. This protects the rotors from damage.
Rotors may need resurfacing to smooth out uneven wear. If they're too worn, we replace them. Brake fluid absorbs moisture over time and should be changed every few years.
We also service anti-lock brake systems (ABS). This can involve flushing the system or replacing sensors and control modules. For drum brakes, we adjust or replace the shoes and resurface the drums as needed.
