Archive for November 2021Busting Automotive Myths in Fenton, MIPosted November 28, 2021 9:55 AMMyths passed around our Fenton, MI community start with a grain of evidence and are then built up with a lot of imagination and very elastic logic. And the internet is a breeding ground for automotive myths.

Muffler & Go Automotive Tips from Muffler & Go: Air Conditioning InspectionPosted November 21, 2021 7:41 AMMost auto manufacturers recommend an interval for an air conditioning system inspection. The inspection uncovers leaks, worn hoses and assesses the condition of the other components.
Winter TiresPosted November 14, 2021 10:15 AMWhat type of technology do you use? Do you prefer an 8-track tape or an iPod? When it comes to winter tires, much of Fenton driver's perception dates back to when 8-track was the best way to listen to the Bee Gees. Muffler & Go Give me a Brake (Light)!Posted November 7, 2021 12:08 PMIf that little brake warning light pops up on your dash, do you know what it means? Well, if you said no, you wouldn't be alone. You know it has something to do with your brakes, but exactly what? You're not sure. One of the reasons is that it could mean a lot of different things. It could be something simple, like you put your parking brake on and forgot to take it off. Easy fix, you're on the road in seconds. Or, it could mean there's something wrong with your anti-lock brake system. That is a pretty complex symphony of speed sensors, computers and wiring, and sometimes things get a little out of whack. You could have a defective sensor or some wiring may have gotten damaged or come loose. A trained technician at Muffler & Go with special equipment can sort it all out. It's also possible you have low brake fluid. That could be caused by a number of things. One simple reason is that your brake pads have worn down. Replacing them could solve the problem. Another possibility is that you have a leak in your brake system. That could be serious. If your brake fluid level gets really low, your stopping power goes down along with it, and a vehicle that can't stop is a safety hazard to you and others on the road. Of all the warning lights on your instrument panel, pay attention to the brake warning light. If it comes on, come on over to Muffler & Go very, very soon. A vehicle is great when it's moving. But if it can't stop, well, that is a disaster waiting to happen. We’d love to hear from you. Let us know if you have any questions. Muffler & Go | ||

OUR REVIEWS
Randy Atwell, 04/23/2024Been bringing my cars here for around 20 years. They stay busy because they do good work. Brought in my Buick Verano to get a wheel bearing replaced. The mechanic not only replaced the bearing, but found another issue, that was in need of repair. Because they had done some major work on this car a few weeks earlier, they took care of both repairs and just charged for the wheel bearing replacement. They went above and beyond anything I expected.
