Warranty-Backed Repairs
Sunnyslope driving is hard on two systems in particular. The grades around North Mountain and the stop-and-go traffic on Dunlap, Hatcher and Central wear brakes faster than freeway miles. And six months of 105°F-plus afternoons keep your A/C running nonstop. Those are the two jobs that make up most of our auto repair in Sunnyslope.
Before we replace any brake part, we check:
Not every squeal means new rotors, and we won’t sell them if you don’t need them. We show you the measurements and quote the fix in writing. See our brake services and our guide to brake rotor warning signs.
These symptoms point to different problems:
If your A/C smells musty, read our cabin air filter guide. If the car won’t start on hot mornings, the cause is often in the battery or electrical system.
Don’t wait for July. Call or schedule online, and we’ll show you what we find and give you the number in writing before we start. Check our coupons or ask about Synchrony financing.
Catch these early and you’ll usually save on a bigger repair.
Squeal means pads are getting thin; grinding means metal is touching metal and rotors are at risk.
A spongy pedal can signal air or moisture in the brake fluid, or a leak, and needs attention right away.
Slowly fading cold air usually means a refrigerant leak that will only get worse.
A flashing light means a serious misfire; a steady light means book a diagnostic soon.
