When properly aligned, all of your wheels are pointed in the same direction. Your vehicle will track true and handle the way it is designed. Los Angeles auto owners often associate our wheels being “knocked” out of alignment with an event like an accident, hitting a pothole, curb or some other object. While these can…
Your brake pads are the critical parts that rub against the rotor (or disc) to slow and stop your vehicle. They eventually wear down. When your pads are worn too much, they won’t stop your vehicle as well. When the friction material is worn away, metal parts of the pad are exposed and you’ll hear…
The brake rotor, or disc, is attached to your wheel. The brake pads rub on the rotor to slow your auto. Rotors can warp, crack or become misaligned. They can also be damaged by worn out brake pads that scratch grooves into the surface. These conditions result in less contact surface for the brake pads,…
Tires are an expensive purchase so knowing when tires should be replaced is important for Glendora auto owners. Tires will just wear out with normal use. The depth of the tread on your tire determines how well it will stop, start and steer – especially in wet conditions. 4/32th of an inch of tire tread…
The serpentine belt tensioner applies pressure to the serpentine belt, maintaining ideal tension to drive the accessories like the alternator and A/C compressor. The service life of the belt tensioner is the same as the belt itself, so they should always be replaced together. A worn tensioner prohibits the accessories from spinning properly, leading to…
Wiper blades are critically important to Glendora auto owners for good driving visibility and safety. When it’s time to replace your wiper blades, there are a number of different wiper blade designs and grades. Glendora motorists should always use at least the design or grade that came with their vehicle. If you live in California…
Service to a vehicle’s power steering system is an important part of preventive maintenance for bright Glendora drivers. This system provides power to the steering wheel so you can turn it with ease. Without power steering, all of the power to turn your sedan’s wheels would have to come from you. The central element of most power…
Remember snow tires? They were basically just regular tires with big, knobby lugs to get them through deep snow. They were loud and rode hard, and Glendora drivers couldn’t wait to get them off the car. Then along came television advertisements for “all-season” radials. California car owners ran out and bought some and we thought…

Maintenance is easy to schedule—Breakdowns are not.
Our oil suppliers have announced a price increase.
With everything else in our lives increasing, I have decided to absorb the increase and not increase oil change pricing.
I know these are small things, but it does matter in the end.
We love being your personal mechanic.

Gene of Certified Automotive Specialists
