Repair warranty

12 months or 12,000 miles on every repair we carry out

Why drivers keep coming back

Nothing fancy. A shop that tells you what it found, stands behind what it fixed and treats a diesel pickup the same as a hatchback. Four habits sum it up, and each one exists because it saves our customers money or hassle somewhere down the line.

01

A full year of cover on the work

Each repair goes out the door with a warranty of 12 months or 12,000 miles. If the same fault comes back inside that window, bring the vehicle in and we look at it again.

02

Trained at school and at the dealer

The technician on your vehicle learned the trade in a formal technical program and then through dealer training on factory equipment and procedures.

03

Urgent first, optional later

You get the findings sorted into three piles: fix now, plan for soon, and fine for now. You choose what happens and when, with no pressure to clear the whole list today.

04

Gas or diesel, one bay

Sedans, crossovers, half-ton trucks and diesel pickups all come through the same door. No sending your truck down the canyon because the shop only knows one fuel, and no juggling two shops when the household runs one of each.

Small wear costs less than a big failure

Most expensive repairs start as something cheap that nobody noticed. A thin brake pad turns into a scored rotor. A weeping seal turns into a dry transmission. The free inspection is how those get spotted while they are still small jobs.

What the free inspection looks at

  • Brake pad thickness, rotor surfaces and brake fluid condition
  • Engine oil level and colour, coolant and other fluids
  • Belts and hoses for cracks, glazing and soft spots
  • Ball joints, tie rods, shocks and struts for play or leaks
  • Oil or fluid leaks under the engine, transmission and axles
  • Anything you have noticed: a noise, a pull, a smell or a vibration

You get the results in plain words, ranked by how soon each item needs attention, before any paid work is discussed.

How a visit runs

Four steps, and you are in the loop at every one of them.

  1. 1

    Call and set a time

    Tell us what the vehicle is doing, or that you just want it looked over. We book a slot that suits your week and note anything you have already noticed.

  2. 2

    Free inspection

    The vehicle goes up on the lift and gets a proper look: brakes, fluids, suspension, leaks and whatever you mentioned on the phone.

  3. 3

    The list and the price

    We call you with what we found, what it would cost and which items can safely wait. Nothing is touched until you say go.

  4. 4

    Repair and road test

    The approved work gets done, the vehicle gets driven to confirm the fix, and we call you when it is ready to collect.

Towns we cover

The shop serves drivers along the Peak to Peak corridor and the roads that branch off it, from the reservoir end of Nederland out to the gravel roads around Gold Hill. Mountain miles are hard on brakes, suspension and cooling, which is exactly why the free inspection covers those first. If your town is not listed, call and ask; the answer is usually yes.

Not sure whether that noise can wait?

Describe it on the phone: when it happens, whether it changes with speed or braking, and how long it has been going on. If it sounds like something that should not be driven, we will say so and fit you in for the free inspection as soon as there is a slot.

Before you book: the usual questions

What does a factory-scheduled maintenance visit include?

It depends on the mileage. Early visits are mostly oil, filter and a set of inspections. Later ones add items like spark plugs, cabin and engine air filters, brake fluid, coolant and transmission fluid. We follow the schedule printed for your model and mileage, and we tell you which items are due now and which ones can roll to the next visit.

My vehicle wanders left or right on a straight road. What causes that?

Common causes are uneven tire pressure, a brake caliper that is not releasing fully, or a worn steering or suspension part such as a tie rod end or control arm bushing. If it gets worse when you brake, the brakes are the first suspect. We check the brakes and front end during the inspection, and if the cause sits outside the work we do, we tell you plainly.

Will having an independent shop service my car void the factory warranty?

No. Federal law lets you have routine maintenance done anywhere, as long as the work follows the manufacturer schedule and uses parts that meet its specifications. Keep the invoices; they are your proof that the service was done on time.

When can I expect the vehicle back?

A lot of brake and maintenance work is finished during the booked visit. Engine, transmission and diesel repairs depend on the diagnosis and on how fast parts arrive. When you get the price, you also get a realistic idea of time, and we call if anything changes.

Do you work on all makes and models?

Yes. American, Japanese, Korean and German makes all come through here, from small commuter cars up to three-quarter-ton pickups, gasoline or diesel. If a particular job ever calls for a tool or procedure the shop does not have, you will hear that during the first phone call instead of finding out a week later.

Can I bring my own parts?

Ask before you buy. Give us the part and the job and we will tell you straight whether it is the right piece for your vehicle and how it affects the repair, so you can decide with all the facts.

How often should the oil be changed?

Start with the interval in your owner manual. Mountain driving, towing, dusty roads and lots of short cold trips all count as severe service, which usually means changing it sooner. Synthetic oil in a newer engine often runs longer between changes.

Is it better to rebuild my transmission or replace it?

It comes down to what failed inside. When the damage is confined to wear items such as clutch packs, seals or the valve body, rebuilding your own unit is often the better value. When metal has gone through the gears, the pump or the housing, a remanufactured replacement usually wins on cost and turnaround. You see both figures with our pick, and you make the call.

A shop that shows its work

The person answering the phone is the person who puts the vehicle on the lift. That keeps things simple: what you describe on the call is what gets checked, and what gets found is explained by the one who found it. You can ask to see any part we call worn, and the price is always settled before the work starts. Prevention over surprise, explanation over jargon, and nothing done without your say-so.
