Most, if not all, vehicles manufactured after the mid 90’s are equipped with an Electronic Control Unit. Your vehicle’s ECU is an onboard computer that monitors the performance of an engine’s fuel injection, RPM’s and many other processes required to keep your car running. The ECU is constantly making small adjustments to the timing of these processes and keeping them in line. In the event of a problem the ECU cannot fix, the ECU will activate your “check engine light” and store a trouble code in its memory for collection by a technician.

Our team of ASE certified technicians is dedicated to complete customer satisfaction as you can see by our positive reviews. We realize that when the check engine light comes on in your vehicle that it’s not necessarily the greatest feeling. Not to worry, Bobby and our Techs, we’ll work hard to make your visit as pleasant as possible and get you back on the road as soon as possible.
