Found Kevin's via Google. Rear differential was leaking on my 2016 Ford F150. I dropped it off and within a reasonable amount of time he called with an estimate. Additionally, my wheel lug nuts had heated and expanded, which I was aware of but forgot to mention when I dropped it off. He recognized the lung nut issue and called me to make me aware. Of course, I was appreciative that he found the issue and addressed it while it was in his shop. While my truck was in for repair I found that my older farm truck was not blowing cold AC. So, when I went to pickup my Ford I left the farm truck so he could address the AC! I found Kevin to be knowledgeable and informative. I think I have found my new mechanic!

Leaks and drips that get the interior of your vehicle wet are definitely an inconvenience. Sitting water promotes rust, bad smells, and can ruin your carpet. Furthermore, the water often seems to come from seemingly nowhere, adding to the frustration. From Kevin's Auto Repair in Huntsville, AL, here are some of the leading causes of water on your floor, and what you can do about it.

True safety starts with being able to see where you are driving. Your lights and wipers play a major role in safe driving and the chance of an accident increases if you can't see or be seen. No matter what time of year, it's important to make sure your vehicle's lights and wipers are working properly so your visibility is not compromised and you can be seen by others. From the driver's seat, you may not notice a light that isn't working, but when a big rain comes it becomes easier to see what you are missing! When wet weather hits your roads is not the time for you to discover limited visibility problems. Here at Kevin's Auto Repair we take our Huntsville drivers' safety seriously and inspect their vehicles when they come in for service.

We’ve all been there: You start your car in the morning and begin to back out of the driveway. You hear an unusual noise coming from your car, and it sounds bad. How do you know if it's something you should bring in to us here at Kevin's Auto Repair to get looked at? Questioning the severity of the sound is a smart immediate response because the difference between a squeaky joint and near-catastrophic engine failure can be a big one.
