Brake Inspection & Repair
Brake service for Chevrolet cars, trucks, and SUVs, with wear checked against how the vehicle is used: towing, hauling, commuting, or family driving.
Engine Diagnostics
Chevrolet engine diagnostics for ticking noises, misfires, rough running, oil consumption, and check engine lights that may point to mechanical issues, not just sensors.
Cooling System Repair
Cooling system repair for Chevrolet overheating, coolant loss, water pump wear, thermostat problems, and aging plastic or rubber components before they lead to engine damage.
AC Repair & Recharge
Chevrolet AC diagnostics for warm air, weak cooling, refrigerant leaks, compressor cycling issues, and systems that struggle during Tri-Cities summer heat.

Suspension and steering repair for Chevrolet clunks, vibrations, loose handling, uneven tire wear, worn hubs, shocks, bushings, and truck/SUV front-end wear.
Electrical Diagnosis
Chevrolet electrical diagnostics for no-start issues, warning lights, battery drain, alternator problems, and GM module communication faults that need more than a basic code scan.

Common Issues with Chevrolet Vehicles
These are the repairs that actually come through our bays on Chevrolet vehicles.
High Frequency
Silverado (5.3L V8, 2007–2021) — AFM Lifter Failure
Some Silverado engines with Active Fuel Management can develop lifter-related problems, especially when oil changes have been stretched too long or the wrong oil has been used. Symptoms may include ticking, tapping, misfires, rough running, or oil consumption. A proper diagnostic helps determine whether the issue is mechanical, oil-related, or coming from another system.
High Frequency
Equinox (2.4L, 2010–2017) — Excessive Oil Consumption
Some 2010–2017 Chevy Equinox models with the 2.4L engine are known for using oil faster than expected. Because the oil may burn internally instead of leaking onto the ground, drivers may not notice the problem until the oil level gets low. An oil consumption test can help confirm how much oil the engine is using and what should happen next.
Common
Silverado — Transmission Shudder (6-Speed and 8-Speed)
Some Silverado trucks with 6-speed or 8-speed automatic transmissions can develop a shudder or vibration at light throttle, often around highway speeds. The cause may be fluid-related, torque converter-related, or something else in the transmission system. We start with diagnostics and fluid inspection before recommending major transmission work.
Common
Chevy Trucks and SUVs — Wheel Bearing and Hub Failures
A humming, grinding, or growling noise that changes with speed or steering input can point to a worn wheel bearing or hub assembly. This is a common concern on higher-mileage Chevy trucks and SUVs. Catching it early matters because wheel bearing problems can affect handling and safety.
