I went to a major franchise to have new tires put on my vehicle and they advised me that my rack & pinion steering was leaking. I allowed them to make the repairs. After getting my car back and driving for a week, I experienced strange issues with my car. I would be on a 360 degree exit and the skid light would come on. The car would also start braking or stop accelerating. I called the major franchise and they told me to take the car to the dealer and they did not want to look at it again. Around the corner from this franchise, I found Kevin's Automotive Repair and left my car with them. I informed Kevin of the previous maintenance performed. Kevin came back and said that one bolt from the rack & pinion steering and the bold was about to come out and the other nut was loose from the bolt. I owed over $5000 on this car and major damage would have caused undue hardship on my family. All I want in a mechanic, carpenter, electrician, etc., is honest and loyalty to it's customers. This is what I have found with Kevin and I trust him with all my maintenance!

Exhaust systems are one of the most neglected aspects of most vehicles. Exhaust pipes, catalytic converters, and mufflers are exposed to heat, emissions, and road damage. While your exhaust system is fairly simple and straightforward, these conditions mean it is inherently prone to rust and damage. As a result, this system is often one of the first systems you will have trouble with on your car.

Transmissions are complex, and over time they will wear out and eventually break. Knowing what to look for will play a key role in preventing your transmission from failing prematurely.
