Main Services

General Vehicle Diagnostics
Using advanced scanning and diagnostic tools, we quickly pinpoint issues in your engine, transmission, or electronic systems. Early diagnosis helps prevent bigger (and costlier) problems down the road.
Brake System Repairs
We offer full-service brake inspections, pad replacements, fluid checks, and rotor resurfacing. A safe brake system is critical in Canadian driving conditions—especially in icy winters.
Suspension & Alignment
Rough roads and harsh weather take a toll on your suspension. We repair shocks, struts, and control arms, and offer professional alignment services to restore smooth handling and even tire wear.
Battery & Electrical Repair
Dead batteries, malfunctioning lights, or starter issues—we fix them all. We also check for hidden electrical issues that could cause future breakdowns.
