Transmission Repair
When it comes to repairing an automatic transmission, you have three options on how you want to handle the situation: you can buy a new transmission, buy a remanufactured one, or have yours rebuilt. All options have their own advantages and disadvantages and your option may have different factors than someone else with transmission issues. In automotive vehicles, when someone mentions transmission they are usually referring to the gearbox, which uses gears and gear trains to transmit speed and torque from a rotating power source to another device. The options listed above, really depend on how much damage there has been to your transmission, what type of budget you want to stay within, how long you want it to last. A repair will consist of services that fix the parts you currently have. A rebuilt transmission entails that we would remove the transmission from the vehicle, disassembling it, replace the old worn-out parts, reassembling it, and then reinstalling it back into your vehicle. Replacement is putting in a whole new transmission and maybe a little costly. If you are looking to repair, rebuild, or replace your transmission talk to one of our experts today to find the best option for you!
Transmission Fluid Service
Many manufacturers suggest that a vehicle should have a transmission flush every 30,000 miles or every two years. However, if you recognize any of the common warning signs it may indicate that you need a transmission flush sooner. Some of the most common warning signs you will notice in your transmission are as follows: grinding or strange noises, problems shifting gears, slipping gears, surging of the car, and delay in vehicle movement. When we flush the used fluid from the transmission it washes away particles of dirt, clutch material, and metal shavings. For all your transmission flush needs, call or visit Fallston Service Center today.
Towing isn't only for cars and trucks that simply won’t start or move, you should also have your car or truck towed if it is experiencing cooling or oil pressure issues, or the transmission is behaving incorrectly as this can cause major damage and cost you thousands. These problems almost always worsen rapidly and do constant damage while the engine is running or the car is driving. Don’t take a chance on destroying your vehicle’s engine or transmission by trying to drive it - let us move it for you. The same goes for steering and suspension issues; if the problem is bad enough, driving your car could cause something to break. This instantly jeopardizes the safety of you in your car, and anyone else involved on the road.
Steering Service/Repair
Important Tips: To save you hundreds on repairs with new tires, suspensions & steering parts, make sure to look at your tires for uneven tread wear.
Your heat and A/C system are complicated, to say the least, requiring the right tools, and constant training to keep up-to-date on the new information and diagnostic tools required to take care of your specific system. Our technicians at Fallston Service Center have experience in all makes and models and can quickly find and solve any issue you might have with your heat and A/C system should it be due to an issue with your compressors, high-pressure lines, special gasses, condensers, actuators, electronic and vacuum signals, or multiple other aspects of your car or truck. Your air conditioning system has to work in harmony to effectively cool your vehicle infrastructure and when needed heat the inside of your vehicle for your comfort. The longer an A/C system remains broken the more problems it will develop, so it’s a good idea to have it serviced regularly.
Radiator Service/Repair
Radiator Flush
We have found that the heating systems are generally far more reliable than A/C since they primarily operate on circulating engine coolant. However, if you’re having heating issues, the consequences are usually far greater if neglected. Lack of defrosting and defogging ability is not just inconvenient but also extremely unsafe. A clogged heater core can cause engine overheating, and a failed heater core will leak coolant into your vehicle, damaging other components. If your heater is misbehaving, have it inspected immediately. Often a simple coolant flush will correct the issue if we can catch it quickly.

Your brake system is comprised of a long list of parts and all of them are under a great deal of stress much of which depends on how you drive as each of us is very different in that regard.
