There are many honest and friendly car repair businesses in town. Just like ours. There are also many that may appear friendly but may do things that are not in your best interest. With that in mind we thought the best way to protect you is to give you a few tips on what to watch for. When something sounds too good to be true, it usually is, like oil changes for under $10. We've all seen the rising gas prices at the pumps, so how can some places sell oil so cheap? The answer is that once your vehicle is on the lift, they hit you with a long, expensive list of services they claim you immediately need. Likewise, buy-one-tire-get-one-free deals inevitably come with an array of hidden services you must purchase to qualify, which usually end up costing the same as the savings. Don't be afraid to ask questions. If you're told a part on your vehicle is bad, ask to see it and for an explanation of how it is malfunctioning. Ask to see the replacement part as well. This can provide you with a clear picture of how the part is supposed to function. An educated consumer is a businessman's best friend. Beware of any one who refuses to meet your inquiries.

What does the alternator do? The alternator replenishes the volts used up by the battery, recharging it as you drive. Without it, your battery will quickly be drained of it's charge.

How do you know if my alternator isn't working? With the engine running, we connect a voltmeter to your battery and measure how many volts the alternator is pumping out. The battery in you car or truck is a 12 volt, so normal alternator readings fall between 13-14 volts.

What else can cause my alternator not to charge? It is possible for a healthy alternator to malfunction due to a worn out serpentine belt or belt tensioner. If the drive belt malfunctions, the alternator and other drive components will follow.  

We repair your alternator the same way we would repair the alternator in our own car or truck. With quality parts, built to last, and meticulous attention to detail to ensure that when your repair is done, it's been done right, the first time.
