Football season is here again and even though we aren’t football superstars, we are the superstars of auto service and repair! Just like a football game where it takes each player doing their job correctly to have a winning team, it takes each component operating in peak efficiency to have a properly running car!…
Corporate Average Fuel Economy or CAFE was put into effect in 1975 and Congress has been tweaking it for 38 years, so it constantly improves the average fuel economy for all cars and trucks sold in the United States.

The California Bureau of Automotive Repair recently busted 16 shops in a two-day sting operation. These shops were getting business from…

Maintenance is easy to schedule—Breakdowns are not.
Our oil suppliers have announced a price increase.

Gene of Certified Automotive Specialists
