The only reason to take your car back to a dealer is for recalls.

What Else Does Your Car Need?

The services listed above are only the general services that apply to most vehicles. You may need more frequent checks and replacements than the intervals listed above. Additionally, your car may have some unique maintenance requirements specified by the manufacturer. Many overhead cam engines have engine timing belts that require scheduled replacement. If such a belt breaks for lack of replacement, expensive engine damage may result. Some carmakers also call for periodic flushing and refilling of the brake hydraulic system.


   


I have been going here for the past ten years and the thing that sticks out to me is their honesty, I took a car in for brake work and they found a problem that they said took no time to fix and they did not charge me a thing.
