Night Driving

February 17, 2014 by Joe Marconi Leave a Comment

Having a tough time seeing while driving at night? If you are having a hard time seeing at night while driving, it could be your headlights.  Most headlights lenses today are made of a plastic composition, not glass as in years ago. The plastic often discolors and gets cloudy, dramatically reducing the amount light emanating from the headlight bulbs. In most cases the lenses can be corrected and restored using a special compound and procedure.   Many of these fixes are only temporary and if not done properly, you may damage your lenses, leaving you with a very costly repair…

November 22, 2013 by Joe Marconi Leave a Comment

Is Your Tire Light On? With winter approaching, the temperature begins to drop, and so will the pressure in your tires. The drop in tire pressure may cause the Tire Light to illuminate.

Doing it Yourself May end up Costing You!

July 25, 2013 by Joe Marconi Leave a Comment

It seems that everyone today is conscience about saving money, and due to the recent economic conditions, it’s easy to understand that.  Many of us take on home projects for that very reason. But when it comes to car repairs, I would like everyone to be careful and ensure you know exactly what’s involved before you attempt any car repair. The other day we had a car towed in with an electrical problem. The customer, thinking that he could replace his own battery, installed the battery, but reversed the cables on the battery and consequently shorted out and damaged very…

July 25, 2013 by Joe Marconi Leave a Comment

A dead car battery is never fun and the reasons for a dead battery are many; the battery itself may have failed, the alternator (the component that recharges the battery) may have failed, or there may be an electrical problem. In most cases it is advisable to seek help from your mechanic. If you do plan on jump starting your dead battery yourself, here are a few tips to insure your safety: Park the vehicle you’ll be using to boost the car with the dead battery as close as possible to the car with the dead battery, but not touching…
