Your vehicle often shows signs when it needs attention. Strange noises, check engine lights, or performance issues should never be ignored. At Dowdy’s Automotive, our auto repair experts use advanced diagnostic tools and decades of experience to quickly identify problems and provide reliable solutions. Here are some of the most common issues we fix every day:
This light can signal a wide range of issues, from a loose gas cap to a failing catalytic converter. Our certified technicians use state-of-the-art diagnostic tools to read the specific code, accurately pinpoint the problem, and perform the necessary repair. Don’t ignore this warning; bring your vehicle in for an inspection to avoid more costly damage down the road.
Squealing brakes are often the first sign of worn brake pads, while a grinding sound can mean metal-on-metal contact. Ignoring these sounds can compromise your safety. Our team will inspect your entire braking system, including pads, rotors, and fluid, and provide a transparent quote to get you back on the road safely.
An overheating engine is a serious issue that requires immediate attention. It could be caused by a low coolant level, a bad thermostat, or a radiator leak. Our experts can quickly diagnose the problem with your cooling system and perform the necessary repairs to protect your engine from permanent damage.
A dead battery is the most common culprit, but this issue can also be a sign of a bad alternator, a failing starter, or an electrical problem. We have the tools and expertise to test your battery and starting system to quickly identify and fix the issue.
