Oil Changes
Our full-service oil changes include premium oil filter replacement, tire pressure check, fluid inspection, and visual vehicle assessment. Technicians recommend synthetic or conventional options based on manufacturer specifications and driving conditions. Regular maintenance intervals prevent engine wear and maintain optimal performance.
Brake Services
Comprehensive brake diagnostics identify wear patterns, fluid leaks, and system integrity issues. Services range from pad replacement to rotor resurfacing, using OEM-quality components. Technicians perform post-service road tests to ensure proper function and safety compliance.
Wheel Alignments
Using Hunter alignment equipment, technicians analyze toe, camber, and caster angles to factory specifications. Adjustments improve tire longevity, fuel efficiency, and handling characteristics. Full suspension inspections identify worn components during alignment service.
Hybrid Maintenance
Specialized hybrid/EV technicians handle high-voltage systems, regenerative braking diagnostics, and battery health assessments. Services include coolant exchanges, brake system maintenance, and software updates using manufacturer-specific tools and safety protocols.
Catalytic Converter Replacement
Technicians diagnose stolen or damaged converters using OBD-II scanners and visual inspections. Replacement uses CARB-compliant components with theft-deterrent welding options. Services include emissions system testing to ensure regulatory compliance and proper engine function.
