Our Service

Here at Mr. O’s Auto, we can provide most services and repairs, major or minor, to you vehicle.  We are equipped with up to date diagnostic equipment, and most tools necessary to repair or service your vehicle correctly, the first time.

 

No starts and rough running engines

Are you having difficulty starting your car/truck or is it just not running right? Have you noticed a significant loss of gas mileage? Vehicles that don’t start, have poor gas mileage, or just aren’t running right could be due to a variety of issues from simply an old/dead battery, dirty spark plugs, electrical issues, and/or other major problems. Let us diagnose and tune-up your vehicle so you don’t have to worry about whether it will start for your morning commute or whether you will make it to your destination.

Electrical Issues

Today’s vehicles are mostly run by computers and electrical systems. These components help keep your car running smoother, start better, give you better gas mileage, make your vehicle more environmentally friendly, allow your dash board to operate, and make adjustments to help your car function properly. Electrical problems can stem from wet or damaged wires, blown fuses, and worst case scenario, major computer failures. Our technician is ASE certified in fixing electrical systems. He can track down and fix the electrical components that cause performance issues in your vehicle, cause bulbs to burn out faster than normal, and cause dash board components to not function properly, to name just a few.

Check Engine Light

Your vehicle is equipped with many sensors that help let you know when it needs attention. Check engine lights are there for a reason and it is important for a technician to scan your vehicle for potential problems. The longer the light is on, the better chance that you will have major issues with your vehicle down the road. Our advice is to not simply ignore or cover these lights with a piece of paper with the hope that your car will not have mechanical failures. The sooner you get issues resolved, the more longevity you will get out of your car. We want to help you avoid having major break downs on the road. Let our technician assess, diagnose, and fix the problem that is causing the check engine light to come on. It will help you save money and get more life out of your vehicle.

Brakes and Anti-lock Brake Lights

Is your anti-lock brake light on? Have you been experiencing grinding or squealing noises when you apply your brakes? Do you have loss of stopping power? Brakes are the most important safety feature in your vehicle. Let us help get you and your family safely to and from your destination. We offer full brake service including brake pad, rotor/drum, brake line, and caliper replacement to all makes and models. Don’t wait to have your brakes checked if you suspect they need replacement, your safety depends on it.

Air Conditioning Service

Have you noticed that your car is not pumping out cold air or that the vent system just isn’t working the way it should? Our experienced technician can service your air conditioning system. It could be that you may just need your AC system recharged, but there could also be problems with the compressor unit or a major leak. All of these things could be causing the loss of function in AC system. Call us today to have Mitch assess and fix your AC so that you can comfortably drive your car on hot summer days.

Power windows and locks

Do your windows and locks simply not work? Are you having difficulties rolling up and down particular windows in your vehicle? It is frustrating when your power windows and locks are simply not working. Properly functioning windows and locks will help protect one of your most important assets, your vehicle, from damage or loss to the car. Not only that, but it also protects the valuables contained within it. Our technician will gladly help repair non-working windows and locks so that you can be put at ease knowing your vehicle and the valuables within it are safe from theft or damage.

Suspension, Steering, and Wheel Issues

Have you been experiencing an annoying hum that gets worse with increased speed? Does your steering feel loose or unresponsive? Do you have major clunking noises in your front or back ends of your vehicle? Is your car just not riding the same as it was when it was new? The parts within the suspension, steering, and wheel systems are important from getting to and from your destination safely. These can be signs of major problems with your suspension, steering, and/or wheels and should be taken seriously. Many of these issues begin around 50-60,000 miles, especially in a state like Minnesota, where there is a lot of wear and tear due to winter driving and potholes. The last thing you want is loss of control of your vehicle while traveling down the road. While these issues can be an expensive up-front investment into the health of your car, the most important thing is the safety of you and your family. Call us today for an honest assessment and diagnosis of your vehicle’s steering and suspension system.
