Services
Diagnostics & Electrical At Sager & Sons, our diagnostics and electrical service is focused on finding answers, not just reading codes. Modern vehicles require careful testing to identify the source of system and electrical concerns. We trace problems to their origin using up-to-date equipment and proven procedures. Once the cause is confirmed, we present an honest and straightforward repair plan.
Brake Services We offer professional brake services designed to identify problems before they become more costly repairs. Our technicians inspect the complete braking system, including pads, rotors, calipers, fluid, and related components. Detailed digital photos accompany our findings, giving you a clear understanding of any concerns. We then complete the approved repairs correctly and stand behind our work with warranty coverage.
Fluid Care Our fluid care and oil change services are performed with strict adherence to manufacturer requirements. We select only fluids that match your vehicles exact factory specifications. Every service includes a digital inspection with clear photos and professional notes. We ensure you understand the condition of your vehicle before any recommendations are made.
Diesel Diagnostics We approach diesel diagnostics with a focus on identifying true system faults rather than simply reading codes. Warning lights such as DPF alerts or check engine indicators only suggest that attention is needed. With diesel-specific scan tools and live data capability, we verify what is actually failing before any repair recommendations. This ensures we address the root cause rather than the symptom.
Oil Leak Repair Oil leaks in vehicles can escalate quickly from minor seepage to serious engine concerns if not addressed promptly. In Boise, short trips, cold starts, and summer heat can accelerate wear on seals and gaskets. We begin with detailed diagnosis to locate the exact source before performing any repairs. Our process includes photographic documentation and clear notes for transparency. All repairs are completed with engine protection as the priority.
Wheel Alignment & Suspension Using Hunter Engineering equipment, we deliver precise wheel alignment and suspension services. We identify causes of uneven tire wear, pulling, and unstable steering through detailed system diagnostics. Road conditions in Boise can slowly impact alignment and suspension performance. Customers receive clear before-and-after reports generated by our Hunter alignment system.
Cooling & Heating Systems We specialize in diagnosing and repairing vehicle cooling and heating systems to prevent engine overheating and ensure dependable operation. In Idahos hot summers even small failures such as coolant leaks faulty thermostats or worn water pumps can quickly lead to severe engine damage. Our process begins with complete system diagnosis and pressure testing to accurately determine the source of the problem before any repairs are recommended. This approach ensures your engine remains within its designed temperature range throughout the year. We back our service with a 3-year or 36,000-mile warranty and provide convenient drop-off scheduling.
Factory Maintenance We carry out factory-scheduled maintenance to ensure your vehicle remains aligned with manufacturer standards and continues to operate reliably. Every visit includes a full digital inspection with photos and written observations. We outline what is required, what has been completed, and what should be monitored, giving you a clear understanding of your vehicles condition overall
Differential & Transfer Case We provide differential and transfer case service designed to protect 4x4, AWD, and drivetrain systems. These components distribute engine power to the wheels through multiple fluid systems. When gear oil degrades or seals begin to leak, wear accelerates quickly. Early detection helps prevent major drivetrain rebuilds. We also inspect components and share findings.

Sager & Sons Automotive is hands down the best shop around!
I truly trust them with my whole heart. They helped me finish up a full front-end replacement on my Durango and got it perfectly aligned and safe for the road again. They went above and beyond sending me photos and videos of everything they found and keeping me completely in the loop the entire time.

They even worked with me on pricing, knowing Im a single mom doing my best to make ends meet, and still gave me the best deal in town. Their honesty, kindness, and quality of work are unmatched. I highly recommend Sager & Sons to anyone and everyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable auto repair shop!

Im in town visiting family , and the battery on my car died without warning. My sister brings her vehicles to Sager & Sons, and called them to see if they could replace my battery. They were able to get me in right then, replaced the battery, cleared the error codes, and didnt charge me a cent for the shop time. So awesome!!! I truly appreciate them taking care of me as though I was a regular customer. And Shyanne was so helpful and sweet, and made sure I had all the information I needed. Thank you so much!!!

Very friendly and helpful employees. Shy was super helpful and explained everything to me perfectly and helped me get the trailer all set up with the help of two other employees. They were very nice and pleasant to work with. I would highly recommend using this place again for any trailer rentals I need in the future!

Dan and his crew were outstanding! He was able to get my truck in next day for repairs, was prompt with communications, speedy getting parts in, and made an extra effort to stay late just to finish repairs so I could pick up my truck when I needed it! Sager & Sons was also able to reprogram/reset some of my systems and saved me $$ on repairs I didn't need. I couldn't be more pleased and wholeheartedly recommend their services!

I 100% Reccomend going to him and his company if you have any mechanical needs. You will be taken care of and satisfied with the services. Wish I could give more than 5 stars.

Dan rebuilt the fount end of my Mustang, and done a complete tune up. Drove and ran better than when it was new. You won't find a more knowledgeable or honest mechanic. Also very reasonable in pricing. I highly recommend him
