I brought my 1999 Mazda Miata to Westerville Automotive Uptown for a brake job. Brad, Chris and the team did a great job at a fair price. While they we inspecting my brakes, they noticed dry rot on my tires (the tread was still good because I don't drive it much). They replaced my tires and saved me from a possible disaster in the future! I highly recommend Westerville Automotive Uptown for all your auto repair needs!!

Since the first automobiles, there have been radiators. Every liquid-cooled engine on the road has, and has always needed, a radiator; without it, the engine would overheat in no time, causing catastrophic engine failure. While the efficiency of radiators, the materials they’re made out of, and the shape and size of them have changed over time, radiators haven’t actually changed much over the last century or so. At Westerville Automotive we know that even though radiators generally last a long time, they do occasionally fail. When your radiator is malfunctioning you can trust our technicians to repair yours and get you back on the road.
