Auto Maintenance Services

Oil Change Service

Regular oil changes are the best way to prolong engine life and keep your vehicle running smoothly. Bruce's offers oil, filter and lube services with conventional, high-mileage and synthetic products. We'll help you decide which is best for your vehicle.

Tune-Ups

Riding a little rough? Ensure that your engine is running efficiently with clean air and gas. An engine tune-up will make your engine easier to start, improve fuel economy, lower emissions and restore lost power.

Air Conditioning Service

Don’t risk your car overheating due to fluid loss, corrosion or leaks. Our technicians diagnose and repair many components in your air conditioning and cooling system including radiator, thermostat, water pump, belts and more. We can pinpoint issues within this complex system and provide solutions.

Radiator Service

As a central component of your car's cooling system, a well-maintained radiator will keep your vehicle out of the shop and running well. Our technicians test for system leaks, exchange fluids and replace worn parts.

Vehicle Inspection

Bruce's Automotive provides complete vehicle inspection services including visual inspection of your car’s major operating systems, including your tires, lights, fluid levels, wipers, belts, battery, hoses and more.

Car Batteries

If your car won't start, it may be a problem with your car battery. Bring your vehicle to us for a replacement battery, new battery installation or check and servicing of an existing battery.

Fuel Injection Systems

Fuel system cleaning services maximize fuel economy and help reduce vehicle emissions. Better gas mileage always sounds good! Let our expert technicians restore vehicle performance with fuel cleaning and injector services.

Belts & Hoses

Every car has a water pump, power steering pump and other features that rely on belts and hoses to operate. Constant wear and tear, exposure to heat, vibration, and chemicals can cause cracks and leaks. Our technicians inspect all belts and hoses and install new, quality ones if necessary.

Wheel Alignment

When you first bought your vehicle, the wheels and front end were aligned perfectly. Make sure they stay that way to avoid excessive tire tread wear and improve driver safety. If you feel your car, truck or SUV is pulling to one side or the steering wheel isn't straight while the vehicle is, it's time to stop in and see us.
