3. Digital Vehicle Inspection Report and Estimate
Following the diagnosis we will text you a digital vehicle inspection report, containing pictures and videos of our findings and recommendations.
4. Review and Approval
A service advisor will reach out to walk you through the findings and recommendations to determine how you would like to proceed, or you can approve work directly in your DVI.
5. Work Performed or Scheduled
Most work can be completed immediately, or scheduled based on parts and customer availability.
If you're concerned about the tread on your tires, we recommend the “penny test” to check your tread depth. Simply insert a penny into your tire's tread groove with Lincoln's head upside down and facing you. If you can see all of Lincoln's head, your tread depth is less than 2/32 inch and it's time to replace your tires.
Car Alignment
Proper car alignment is essential for maintaining your vehicle's stability and handling. If you notice your vehicle pulling to one side, experiencing uneven tire wear, or a shaky steering wheel, it may be time for a car alignment. Our team of certified technicians at Christian Brothers Automotive Pearland will carefully inspect your vehicle's suspension components and adjust the alignment angles as needed to ensure optimal performance and safety.
Front End Alignment
A front end alignment focuses on aligning the front wheels of your vehicle. Over time, factors such as potholes, curbs, and regular wear and tear can impact the alignment of your front wheels. This can lead to steering issues, uneven tire wear, and decreased fuel efficiency. Our skilled technicians will perform a comprehensive front end alignment, adjusting the caster, camber, and toe angles to ensure your vehicle's front wheels are properly aligned for optimal performance and safety.
