We check—and top off as needed—engine oil, coolant, brake fluid, transmission fluid, power steering fluid, and windshield washer fluid.


✔ Battery & Charging System

Testing for voltage, condition, terminals, and starting reliability.


✔ Belts & Hoses

Checking for cracks, leaks, wear, or potential failure points.

Ensuring headlights, brake lights, turn signals, and hazards all work properly.
