ADAS Calibration

An ADAS calibration is a process to correctly align a car's cameras and sensors so that its ADAS system can work as intended. At A & P Auto, our technicians are trained to the highest standards to complete a camera calibration to the manufacturer's required standard.

Electric Car Service

Like every other car, truck, and SUV, regularly scheduled maintenance on your electric vehicle will help ensure its longevity. A battery inspection should be done every six months. In this checkup, we will inspect for leaks and check how your battery performs.

Your tires should be rotated every six months to prevent uneven wear and tear, which will help extend the life of all four tires. Your brakes and fluid should be inspected and changed after 22,000 miles or two years. The last major thing we watch for is the coolant system. Your vehicle's coolant should be changed once every 150,000 miles or every five years, whichever comes first.

Software Updates

Sometimes, the manufacturer will find a way to improve your vehicle's performance through the software. Often, this will be done through a recall campaign. When this happens, you will be free to update the software.

Battery Inspection

The biggest thing we look for is leaks in the battery. Although we hardly ever find any signs of a leak, we must address any early signs of wear and tear before they become irreversible. This is also a matter of safety, but please remember to keep your mind at ease.

These Vehicles And Batteries Have Undergone Rigorous Safety Testing To Meet The Same Standards Expected Of Modern-Day Vehicles.

Standards Have Been Set For Limiting Spillage In The Event Of A Crash, And Measures Have Been Taken To Isolate The Chassis From The High-Voltage System.

The Manufacturer Has Designed Its System To Deactivate The High-Voltage Electric System In The Event Of An Accident.

Tire Rotations

Rotating your tires every six months will allow them to wear evenly and should extend the life of all four tires. When tires wear down evenly, you won't notice your vehicle pulling off to one side on its own.

If you notice your vehicle pulling to one side or the other on its own, it is out of alignment and needs to be adjusted. Failure to do this promptly can damage your vehicle's suspension. Rotating your tires on time will help prevent this.

Brakes And Fluids

Your vehicle's brakes should be inspected after 22,000 miles or two years. They use a regenerative breaking process, turning friction into power for your car. If you use clean brake fluid, you should expect your brakes to last longer than traditional braking systems.
