exhaust on a vehicle

Exhaust issues are extremely common, no matter what type of car, truck, or SUV you drive. At Westerville Automotive in Westerville, OH, we can get your exhaust back in shape in no time.

Exhaust issues tend to be neglected, and we get that; there are just other parts of your vehicle that you'd rather focus on. Besides a clogged catalytic converter, there isn’t much risk of damage from a bad exhaust system - it negatively affects your gas mileage, and the sound is annoying, but other than that, it’s an issue many people learn to live with.

Westerville Automotive has to be one of the best, if not the best, auto repair company going today. I have been a customer for many years and have always been treated fairly and with respect. The service I have received from them is simply the greatest. I recently brought my Ford Ranger in because it had a problem with the tires, (whining and vibrations). They fixed the problem. I thought It would be a good idea to have the tires balanced to make the ride even better and took it to where I have the tires maintained. Of course this totally messed up the work Westerville Automotive did. I took my truck back to Westerville Automotive a few days later to have the tires brought back to the correct arrangement. They performed the work for me at no charge, even though I caused the problem the second time. In todays world it is extremely rare for a company to have such integrity. I will forever be a customer of theirs and will highly recommend them to any who need a dependable auto shop.
hole in 4x4 diesel truck tire

When your light comes on, it is ALWAYS important to look at the issue to see if it is a problem.  Especially if it is a light we all understand.  Tire pressure is one we all can relate to and an easy one to look at.  However, most drivers just assume the air is low in them and ignore it which is not a good idea especially when you are driving a 4x4 diesel truck off-roading and could have picked up anything and/or everything like this truck tire did.

If you own a Ford vehicle you may be affected by this recall.

Transmission Cut to show you the inside of it

Nothing works if your transmission doesn't work!  Simply put you are going nowhere without it and it is the one thing that both car and truck drivers alike never think twice about until it really acts up or they have no power or simply don't move forward.  Most of us have a newer car or truck with an automatic transmission in it vs. a standard transmission so do not notice that it is slipping gears until the problem is really serious so the question is how do you get the most out of your transmission?  The obvious answer is to take care of your transmission with scheduled service per your owner's manual recommendation but we have put together a simple checklist for our Westerville drivers to help them become "transmission aware" as it were.

Oil gunked up on an engine.

We see this with our fleet customers, our regular Westerville car pool drivers and our diesel truck drivers so it isn't just one type of driver that ends up with a nightmare on their hands costing thousands of dollars to repair, asking about the costs of a JASPER replacement engine!  The fact is your driving habits and maintenance habits can easily avoid this issue!  6 EASY STEPS - Service, Tires, Don't Ignore Service Engine Lights, Keep it Clean & Stop Driving Crazy!

Phenomenal service and a truly great experience from start to finish with the team here at Westerville Automotive. They were a referral to me for tires on my truck and from the first phone call to setting the appointment to having the work done has been very impressive. I would highly recommend this business for your automotive needs, they go the extra mile. Thank you, Westerville Automotive. I will certainly be a repeat customer. - Brandon F.
