Scheduled, preventive or normal maintenance...whatever you call it, we do it.  Every vehicle has a manufacturer's recommended maintenance schedule  (check your owner's manual).  Following an appropriate schedule prevents costly repairs and increases the life and resale value of your car or truck. 

Most maintenance schedules are based on miles, assuming you drive 1,000 miles per month under "normal" conditions, which of course none of us drive.  Extreme temperatures, poor road conditions, heavy traffic, overuse and even under-use can prematurely damage parts.  The general maintenance recommendations for the Metroplex (on the right) are based on our typical weather and driving conditions.  Your specific vehicle and driving habits may call for something different.  We have the manufacturers' recommendations on all vehicles and can tailor a plan that's best for you.

Many people mistakenly believe they have to go to a dealer for maintenance if their car or truck is under warranty.  This is simply not true.  Maintenance is not covered under standard warranties.  The only exception is a few special new car incentives that include some maintenance, such as free oil changes.  In reality, the only time you need to go to the dealer is for repairs covered under their manufacturer's warranty or recalls.  In either case, the work should be free.  So, if you are paying any money for dealer service, you are probably paying too much!  For more on warranties, see our Tips.

Putting off maintenance always costs more in the long run.  If your vehicle doesn't feel right, sound right, or smell right, it probably isn't right.  Why take the risk?  Come in today! 

Fleet Services 

We don't need to remind you how important it is to keep your business vehicles running.  Skimp here and you could lose more than a couple of day's revenue...you could lose customers!  If you entrust us with your family's car, why not your business vehicles?

We offer the same talented technicians, accurate diagnosis, and quality parts; the same commitment to only fix what you need and never sell you what you don't; the same acclaimed service on evenings and Saturdays when you can better afford the time; and a willingness to create a plan that works best for your business.

If you are a fleet manager or business owner, let's talk.  If you know someone that is, why not introduce us.  You'll be glad you did!
