A Guide to Common Repairs
Here are some of most common repairs that car owners face:
Alternator
The alternator generates electricity that runs your vehicle’s computer, stereo, windows etc., and charges your battery while driving. A diagnostic test can identify any issues.
Axles
Axles transfer power from your engine to your wheels. They can wear or leak, which can cause wheels to lock up, damage the transmission or lead to an accident. Get any noises checked out.
Brakes
When you need your brakes, it is absolutely crucial that they work. LAD’S provides complete inspection and replacement service on both disc and drum brakes, and all associated parts.
Check Engine Light
When this light comes on, you should bring your car in for inspection ASAP. Your vehicle’s computer has detected a problem with a key system. Ignoring it can lead to bigger problems.
Exhaust System
The exhaust system prevents emissions from harming occupants and the environment. If you hear noise around the tailpipe or smell exhaust inside, bring your vehicle in immediately.
Lights and Signals
Headlights, taillights, brake lights, turn signals, backup lights and marker lights allow you to see and be seen. Annual bulb inspection and cleaning of lenses can ensure maximum safety.
Shocks and Suspension
Shocks and struts work with the suspension system to ensure a smooth ride. All are essential to steering, stopping and stability. There are many parts, and a single issue can lead to trouble.
Tire Pressure Monitoring
Underinflated tires are a safety concern and can decrease fuel efficiency and tire life. Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems on new cars can advise a technician on required action.
Water Pump
The water pump circulates coolant through the engine, and can wear over time. If you hear a grinding sound or see a leak, bring your car in before it overheats.
Wheel Bearings
Hear clunks and groans when turning? It could be your bearings. Left unchecked, it could cause wheel lockup. We can re-grease and repack existing bearings or replace them if required.
