Repairs Made Easy – We Pick Up, Fix, & Deliver!

Regular vehicle maintenance is key to avoiding costly breakdowns. We recommend oil changes every 3,000–5,000 miles, brake inspections every 6 months, and a full vehicle check-up at least once a year. Keeping up with fluid changes, tire rotations, and engine diagnostics can help extend the life of your car and improve safety on the road.

If your mower won’t start, runs rough, overheats, or cuts grass unevenly, it’s time for a tune-up. Common issues include dull blades, clogged fuel lines, dirty air filters, and worn-out spark plugs. Regular oil changes, blade sharpening, and deck adjustments can keep your mower running efficiently and prevent breakdowns during the mowing season.

If your vehicle breaks down, stay safe by pulling over to a secure location, turning on hazard lights, and avoiding exiting your car on a busy road. Call us immediately for 24/7 towing through our partnership with SRS Towing & Recovery. Our team will arrive quickly, transport your vehicle safely, and assist with any necessary repairs.

While DIY fixes or chain store specials may seem cheaper, they often don’t match the quality, reliability, or warranty of professional service. At R & S Auto Service, our repairs include premium-grade parts, ASE-certified labor, and diagnostic precision to get it right the first time. We also stand behind our work with warranties many low-cost alternatives can’t offer. Cutting corners to save upfront often results in more time, more money, and more headaches in the long run.

Local shops like ours offer personalized service, quicker turnaround times, and often lower labor rates than dealerships. While dealerships may specialize in one make, we service all makes and models with the same expertise. We also provide a more transparent and community-driven experience. You’re not a number here—you’re a neighbor. We build relationships, not quotas. Plus, our diagnostic tools and training are on par with, if not more attentive than, those found in many franchise or dealer environments.

Overheating can cause severe engine damage if not addressed immediately. If your temperature gauge spikes or steam comes from under the hood, pull over, turn off the engine, and wait for it to cool before opening the hood. Do not remove the radiator cap while hot. Call R & S Auto Service and let us handle towing if needed. Common causes include low coolant, thermostat failure, or a broken radiator fan. Ignoring overheating could lead to head gasket failure, costing thousands in repairs.

Brake squeals can result from high-performance pads, moisture buildup, or minor surface rust—not always a problem. However, if you feel softness in the pedal, vibrations, or pulling during braking, these are warning signs. At R & S Auto Service, we inspect the entire braking system—not just pads—including rotors, lines, calipers, and brake fluid condition. We’ll let you know if your issue is harmless or needs immediate attention. We also use quality brake parts that reduce noise and last longer than economy-grade components.

Tires typically last 25,000 to 50,000 miles depending on driving habits, alignment, and tire quality. Underinflation, lack of rotation, and poor alignment are top causes of premature wear. At R & S Auto Service, we check tire pressure, wear patterns, and recommend rotations every 5,000–6,000 miles. We also offer alignments and balancing to extend life. A small investment in upkeep saves you from buying new tires early—and helps you stay safe on the road.

DIY repairs are rewarding, but modern cars are complex systems. Replacing a failed part doesn’t always resolve the root cause. For instance, replacing a sensor may not help if a wiring issue or software fault caused it. At R & S Auto Service, we don’t just swap parts—we diagnose holistically. Our advanced diagnostics ensure the correct cause is identified the first time. Many customers come to us after unsuccessful DIY attempts, and we're always happy to help finish the job properly.

Regular oil changes are essential to engine longevity. Old oil thickens, loses its lubricating properties, and allows dirt and metal particles to wear down your engine. Even synthetic oil breaks down over time. Skipping changes leads to engine sludge, overheating, and eventually costly engine damage. At R & S Auto Service, we recommend intervals based on your specific car and driving habits. Our oil changes include multi-point inspections to catch potential issues early, adding another layer of protection.
