Comprehensive Services That Keep Your Vehicle Running
From preventative maintenance to complex engine repair, Rod’s Tire and Automotive is equipped to handle virtually any service your vehicle needs. Our technicians use computerized diagnostic equipment connected directly to your vehicle’s OBD-II port and ECU to read trouble codes, evaluate sensor data, and pinpoint problems accurately before recommending any repairs. That means no guesswork, no unnecessary parts, and no surprises on your invoice. We perform brake repair on all vehicle makes and models, including inspection and replacement of brake pads, rotors, calipers, brake lines, and master cylinders, as well as ABS system diagnostics. Our suspension repair services cover shocks, struts, control arms, ball joints, tie rods, and sway bar links. We pair that work with precision wheel alignment to protect your tires and improve handling. Transmission repair is another area of expertise, whether your vehicle needs a fluid flush, solenoid replacement, torque converter service, or a full diagnostic scan of the transmission control module. We also offer complete car A/C repair, including refrigerant recharge, leak detection, compressor replacement, and blower motor service, so you stay comfortable in any season.
