BRAKES
What are brakes? You need brakes to stop your vehicle and if they're not working properly, you could end up having a really bad day. Your vehicle has two types of brakes: disc brakes and drum brakes.Disc brakes Disc brakes are generally on the front wheels of your vehicle, and work like a vise, closing around the outside of the vehicle's rotor to slow your vehicle down.Drum brakesFound on the rear wheels, brake shoes push against the inside surface of a rotating brake drum to slow the vehicle.Most newer model vehicles are equipped with computer-controlled Anti-lock Braking Systems (ABS) and/or other traction control devices. This safety feature is designed to prevent wheel lock-up and skidding when you apply sudden pressure to your brake pedal.
SCHEDULED SERVICE
Let Quality track your maintenance records.Quality has instant access to the data base of scheduled maintenance for all automotive manufacturers including Ford, GM Chrysler, Honda, Mitsubishi, Mazda, Hyundai, and more. What are my recommended maintenance mileage intervals? Your vehicle's recommended maintenance schedule breaks down the necessary maintenance for you by mileage intervals. While these schedules vary slightly from one manufacturer to the other, they're all designed to keep your vehicle in a safe working condition. And while today’s automobiles often last for 150,000 miles or more, it is a common misconception that they need “less” maintenance. By design, it is the periodic maintenance, designed wear and replacement of predetermined components that allow the vehicle to operate as long as it does.
DIAGNOSTICS
Today vehicles contains nearly as much electronics and computing power as the space module that put the first men on the moon. Nearly every system on your vehicle, from steering and brakes, to fuel injectors and air conditioning, is controlled by a computer. This computer has a series of sensors, through which it can determine if there is a problem with any of these systems and notify the driver via dashboard warning lights.
All automotive manufacturers require regularly scheduled maintenance to keep your warranty valid, your vehicle safe, and to extend the life of your vehicle. Details about your vehicle's regularly scheduled maintenance are available in your vehicle's owner's manual. If one is not handy we can help you
