Tune Ups

Is your vehicle stalling, lagging or getting poor fuel economy?

It's always distressing to see those little check engine lights illuminate your dashboard and you may be tempted to ignore them. But those lights come on for a reason. It's the car's diagnostic system alerting you to a pressing maintenance issue. When the lights come on, it's in your best interests to take the vehicle in for prompt servicing.

Electrical

Your car's electrical system consists of the battery, starter and alternator.

The battery provides juice to the starter. Then, the alternator gives that battery the energy it needs to power your car. If one of these parts is not working properly, your car won't start or run correctly. Our expert technicians can perform an electrical system check to ensure everything is working properly.
