Most of what keeps a vehicle reliable is unremarkable: fluids changed on schedule, belts and hoses replaced before they fail, cooling systems that hold pressure.
We handle that routine work and the major repairs at the other end of the scale — engine work included. 23+ years in one shop means we've seen how the vehicles common around Crosby tend to age.
When an inspection turns up more than one item, we tell you which ones matter now and which can wait, so you can make the call based on your priorities and budget.
A full repair shop
We are a full-service mechanical shop, not a specialist in one system. Our technicians are ASE-certified, we work on all makes and models, including domestic, Asian and European vehicles, diesels and hybrids, and we use parts that meet or exceed OEM specifications for the repairs you approve. When a problem is not obvious, we diagnose it rather than guess.
Now versus later
When an inspection turns up more than one item, we put safety and reliability items first and give you a list of the rest to plan around. You decide what happens and when, and nothing is added to the work without your approval. High-mileage vehicles in particular often need a plan more than a single repair.
The cause is not always the obvious part
Mechanical problems often have a cause somewhere other than where the symptom shows. In one documented repair, an engine that was overheating turned out to have a defective cooling fan control module, which had been exposed to water because a fender liner was missing, not a bad thermostat. In another, intermittent stalling traced back to worn engine mounts that let the engine move far enough to disturb an electrical connector. Checking before replacing is how those repairs were found.
What you get
Clear findings and a prioritized list, and nothing is added without your approval. Our mechanical repairs are covered by our 12-month / 12,000-mile warranty.
