Light Maintenance
Battery
The battery in your vehicle performs many functions. The most obvious is to provide electrical energy to crank the starter and get the engine running. It must also provide energy to the lights, heater, radio, air conditioning and other electronics. Your battery has the ability to last several years because your vehicle’s alternator works to replenish it with electric current. However, over time the battery will lose its ability to store and hold an electrical charge, making it difficult to start your vehicle. Mr. Lube + Tires can check your battery and help identify a change in the condition and state of the charge so that you never have to worry about being stranded with a dead battery. We have state of the art testing equipment, and we’ll even provide you with a print-out of the current health of your battery. We also offer battery replacement for when the time comes around.
Serpentine Belt
A serpentine belt is a single, continuous belt used to power multiple devices in your engine. These include the alternator, power steering pump, water pump, A/C compressor and air pump. If your serpentine belt breaks it will cause numerous components in your vehicle to stop working and lead to costly repairs. Your Mr. Lube + Tires technician will check your belt every time you get your oil changed and alert you if they see signs of wear.
Fuel System Cleaning
The makeup of gasoline varnish tends to accumulate inside the fuel lines, rails and injectors. Over time this varnish will begin to cause problems in the fuel system. By cleaning your fuel system on an annual basis you’ll help to restore vehicle performance by cleaning the fuel injectors, intake valves and combustion chambers of deposits. This service improves sluggish starts, rough idling, fuel consumption, and reduces exhaust emissions.
Windshield Chip Repair
A chip in your windshield rarely stays just a chip. Even a tiny fragment can grow until it compromises your view of the road and the structural integrity of the glass. Then, before you know it, you need to replace your entire windshield.
That’s why most Mr. Lube + Tires locations offer windshield chip repair, providing a strong bond that prevents the break from expanding. And we can do it all while we service your vehicle. It’s quick, safe, effective and costs less than a new windshield.
Headlight Restoration
If your headlights are milky or yellowed — even with brand new bulbs installed — it's probably because the lenses have suffered wear and tear like scratches, etches and sun damage. Fortunately, the certified technicians at your nearest Mr. Lube + Tires can provide a fast, guaranteed headlight restoration that increases luminosity between 50% and 100%. It's a two-part process: we de-cloud the lenses, and then apply a special sealant that protects against UV damage for three years.
Here's why it's a bright idea to have your dull headlights treated:
