    If it wasn’t for my employer who uses him I wouldn’t have known about this place. Stan did excellent work for my water pump. Great work and prices. I will be in touch and let others know about this place when they need there vehicles worked on. Thanks again.

    I was worried about finding a good mechanic in the area because I needed to have my heater core replaced (which is both expensive and difficult). It’s been a few weeks now since I had my Jeep fixed here and everything is working great! The pricing was super fair and they…
Front Pads, Rear Pads, Pad Wear Check

Brake Pad Replacement

Brake pads have a limited lifespan and should be changed before they wear out, affect your ability to stop, or damage other brake parts. White’s Automotive Repair inspects the pads, your vehicle’s stopping ability, and the condition of related braking components so we can provide sound advice about the brake pad service you need. Having your brake pads installed correctly increases your safety and confidence while driving.

Rotor Resurface, Rotor Swap, Warping

Rotor Service

The pads and brake rotors are the main components in your vehicle that help slow it down and eventually stop it from rolling. Vibration and noise may result from worn, warped, or grooved rotors. Our technicians can perform an inspection of the condition of your brake rotors and provide you with service that helps provide you with a smoother, more reliable braking experience.

Pad Check, Fluid Check, Line Check

Brake Inspections

By inspecting a vehicle’s brake system, a brake inspection is able to find any worn, leaking, noisy, or poorly performing parts. White’s Automotive Repair looks for different components within the braking system, such as pads, rotors, calipers, brake lines, and the condition of the brake fluid.

Bounce, Swaying, Rough Ride

Shocks & Struts

Suspension and shock struts are primarily responsible for controlling ride comfort, handling, stability, and tire contact on the road. When shocks or struts wear out, they can cause a bounce, dip, or sway. We inspect all suspension parts to ensure that they are working properly. If necessary, we recommend replacing your vehicle’s suspension so that you can improve the quality of your rides.

Ball Joints, Tie Rods, Alignment

Steering & Suspension

The proper steering, tracking, and handling of your vehicle rely on several different parts of the suspension system, including ball joints, tie rod ends, and other components. Worn suspension components can result in looseness, uneven tire wear, clunking noises when turning, or poor alignment. White’s Automotive Repair checks your vehicle for these issues and provides repairs so that you can have better control over your vehicle.

Clunks, Vibration, Pulling

Ride-Quality Concerns

If your car is vibrating, riding rough, pulling to one side, or has poor handling such as excessive clunking, then there is probably something wrong with the suspension system or steering on the vehicle. Our technicians check all the systems that affect driving comfort, control, and stability to identify any ride quality concerns.
