FAQ

Battery, Starter & Alternator Service FAQ

My battery keeps dying — do I need a new battery?

Not always. A battery that keeps dying could be worn out, but it could also be a failing alternator, a bad connection, or something draining power while the car is off. Testing the whole charging system tells you what actually needs replacing. Call (806) 626-9870 and we'll get it diagnosed.

How do I know if a repair is urgent or can wait?

Anything affecting brakes, steering, overheating, a flashing check engine light, smoke, or strong burning smells should be checked right away. Other issues may be able to wait — we'll explain your options clearly before any work starts. Call (806) 626-9870 and we'll get it diagnosed.

What are your hours?

The Mechanic Shop is open Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM. If your car breaks down, call us first so we can tell you what to do and get ready for you. Call (806) 626-9870 and we'll get it diagnosed.
