Engine and Exhaust System

Engine Repair
Oil Change
Any coupon received via text must be presented at time of estimate. Only one coupon code per transaction. Not valid on basic oil changes. Not valid with any other offers, special order parts or warranty work. Valid on most cars and light trucks at participating [Driven Company] locations only. See center manager for complete details. No cash value. Void where prohibited. Limited time offer.
Engine Tune-Up
Exhaust System Repair
A deep rumbling noise coming out of your exhaust pipe is an obvious signal that you have a muffler or exhaust issue. Having it repaired quickly is the best option. Delaying needed muffler or exhaust repairs causes other exhaust and engine problems that make repairs more expensive.
Starter Repair
Engine Diagnostic
Emissions Inspection
Timing Belt/Chain Replacement
Muffler Repair and Replacement
Meineke has been the muffler expert since 1972. Whatever the maintenance needs of your exhaust & muffler system or catalytic converter, Meineke can provide it.
Catalytic Converter Repair and Replacement
It is sometimes possible to repair a catalytic converter. With that said, it can often be just as cost-effective to replace it altogether. To learn more about the available options for catalytic converter repair, it’s always best to speak with an expert—specifically your Meineke service technician. We can walk you through the available options for getting your catalytic converter running as it should.

Transmission and Drivetrain

Transmission Service
Transmission Replacement
Clutch Service/Repair
Make Meineke your provider for all axle repair needs—including clutch repair, driveline repair and more.
Axle Repair
The most important part of CV axle maintenance is inspection of the protective boots. Replacement of cracked rubber boots can save the higher expense involved in joint or half-axle replacement.

Steering and Suspension

Suspension Service/Repair
The steering and suspension system is very intricate, so it’s important to have work done by a trusted technician. It contributes to the overall quality of your ride, but it is also integral to your vehicle’s safety. Keep up with regular maintenance and inspections, and make sure to address any problems right away.
Steering Service/Repair
Turning the steering wheel of your car seems simple, but a lot happens between your steering wheel and your car’s tires. This complex system relies on a number of processes in order to function properly. Nearly all vehicles today come with power steering, but if this system fails, it quickly becomes a safety issue. Typical steering and suspension services include wheel alignments, shock and strut repair and front and/or rear suspension repair.
CV Boot Replacement
Your car’s CV joints are a collection of bearings and cages that are protected by the CV boot, including axles and joints. Regular inspections of the boot will ensure it is sealed so no dirt or grime gets in to wear down your joints, which will provide you with a smoother ride, including rear wheel drive vehicles. We work on CV Boots, CV axles, bad CV joints, axle shafts, ball joints and axle damage. For ensuring the long term value of your car or auto, stop by a Meineke rebuild shop near you for an appointment to inspect your CV joints for any axle or joint replacements or repairs, and get a nice quick estimate today!

Heating and Cooling

Air Conditioning Service/Repair
Vehicle air conditioning repair can include a variety of tasks ranging from small to large-scale, from refrigerant levels to cooling fans. Everything from an annual inspection or performance check to diagnosis and replacement of system components can be completed at your local Meineke shop by a qualified technician, with any estimates or diagnostic checks. Regular inspections help ensure cooling efficiency and identify possible refrigerant leaks. Additional services your vehicle might need include...
Radiator Service/Repair
Air Filter Replacement
Air Conditioning Recharge

Tire Rotation
Tire rotation is an important step in the preventive maintenance process, and it’s something we recommend having done roughly two to three times a year. This figure can vary just depending on how much you drive the vehicle. A good rule of thumb is to always have a tire rotation performed when you get the oil and filters changed.
Tire Repair
If you don’t regularly inspect and service your tires, you may experience a blowout, a flat, or worse. Meineke has the right tires for your vehicle and offers services you need to keep your tires in good working order, whether it’s everyday driving or preparing for a summer vacation roadtrip. Our certified technicians will inspect your tires, perform a tire repair, or replace them entirely. For new tires, tire and wheel work near you at the best cost, contact your nearest Meineke for auto tires, mounting, balancing, rotations, leaks and more.
Wheel Alignment
It’s easy to tell when your car isn’t in alignment. Drifting from side to side, abnormally-worn tires, or a tilted steering wheel while driving straight are symptoms of a vehicle in need of alignment services! Since a tire alignment actually fixes the vehicle suspension, not the tires, having a specialist who can properly adjust your suspension system is important.
Tire Service
We offer coupons, deals and specials that make tire service performed by a professional technician affordable. Visit our locations page to find current tire deals near you and discover how affordable it is to enjoy a healthy set of road-safe tires.
Tire Balancing
Points redeemed for Tire Rotation, Tire Balancing and Tire Alignment are valid on most cars and light trucks.

Brake Service
Since brake pads are only one possible problem with a brake system, there are other items to be included in a brake service. Depending on the results of the braking system evaluation, your vehicle brake service may include...
Brake Fluid Service
Brake Inspection
If your brakes are making a squealing sound or you hear grinding when your car comes to a stop, these may be signs that you need brakes service immediately. Consult a certified technician near you for a brake inspection any time you notice any irregularities in your car’s braking performance. An auto shop or service center with the best brake service should be able to provide you with a reasonable estimate on hours and time.
Brake Repair
Brakes and brake repair service for the entire braking system and brake problems, such as brake pads, brake fluid, and rotors, are important in helping ensure the safety of you and your passengers in your car, truck or other automobile with brake issues. There are a number of signs that indicate your brakes need attention and you want to give them the best attention there is. All brake repairs and brake shops are not the same and at Meineke, we know stellar service doesn’t have to exclude cost-effective solutions, whether it’s new anti-lock brakes or an older model. Brake repair, replacement and inspections all may be necessary, and where to get your brake pads replaced can have significant consequences on the value of your car.
