Our 3 point promise

01

What's wrong?

Tell us all the details, tell us if it started banging at the stop sign, tell us if it started bucking on the free way, tell us if it was sprite or fanta you were drinking before the car shut off! The more details you give us, the better of a story we can start stitching together about your car's failure

02

What's gotta be done?

After we do our inspection and or diagnostic, we can come up with a solution to the problem, sometimes its a multi-step plan, we might have to wash the undercarraige and have you drive it for a few days to find the leak, other times we can get right to it and start tearing out the valve covers! What ever it is, we'll solve the problem together!

03

What's it gonna cost?

After we've discussed our plan, we go over the cost. Most of our plans have guided structures so you know what's most important to repair on your vehicle, other times we can get it all knocked out in one go. We offer financing, and accept most payment platforms, (credit, debit & zelle.) ~ Please click here for more information on our financing and credit & debit fees.

Spicy Lemon

"You still haven't explained the spicy Lemon!"

Alright alright, have you ever heard of a lemon in the auto industry? If you have great! If you haven't here's the answer. According to the Merriam-Webster, they officially define a lemon as "one that turns out to be unsatisfactory or disappointing" (e.g., "our new car is a lemon"). So then why are we the Spicy Lemon? Because cars can have a little too much citrus in them, making them bitter and disappointing, But with the right information, the right plan, and a little bit of Tajín, even a lemon can become something worth enjoying again.

What are diagnostics

You've probably heard this word thrown around before. Maybe you've gone to the auto parts store for a “diagnostic” and walked away with a printout full of strange codes — P0171, P0420, and a bunch of confusing jargon. But what do those codes actually mean? More importantly… what caused them in the first place?

What is general maintenance?

General maintenance includes oil changes, brakes, transmission services, brake flushes, coolant flushes and inspections. These all play a role in long-term vehicle health. The best repair is often the one you prevent before it happens.

What are A/C services?

A/C service is more than cold air. Odors, weak airflow, and poor cooling can point to cabin filter buildup, moisture, refrigerant issues, or system wear. Let’s find out what your vents are trying to tell you.
