Aside from free brake inspections, we are a full service brake shop. From installing a simple set of pads to complete front and rear brake jobs, you can be sure that the job will be done right the first time.
Shocks:
Shocks are very important not only from a ride standpoint, but also the fact that worn out shocks can cause your tires to lose contact with the road (wheel hop), resulting in the possible loss of control, handling, and even braking ability. You may also experience excessive and uneven tire wear and cupping (shredding of tire tread).
Signs that your shocks and struts may be worn:
* If Your Shocks Have More Than 25,000 Miles On Them
* The Nose of Your Vehicle Goes Down When You Brake
* Your Vehicle Rolls or Sways Too Much When You Go Around Corners
* Your Vehicle Continues To Bounce After Going over Bumps
* The Strut or Shock Is Dented Or Leaks Fluid
Alignment:
Your vehicle being out of alignment is another problem that can cause uneven or excessive tire wear. Alignment is also needed when your steering wheel is not centered, or your car "pulls" from one side or the other.
The basic or "two-wheel" alignment is when the front wheels only are checked and straightened as needed. The "four-wheel" alignment is when the rear wheels are aligned to the front. A four-wheel alignment is generally only needed when the rear wheels are out of line or the car is a four or all-wheel drive.
