Local Insights & Maintenance Tips for Westminster Drivers

Colorado’s climate can shorten alternator life and add stress to electrical systems, especially as winter cold or sudden temperature swings strike. Alternator failure often happens at inconvenient times, but regular maintenance checks can help you avoid breakdowns and stay safe on local roads. Professional alternator replacement in Westminster also ensures your car meets manufacturer recommendations for dependable performance year-round.

Our team routinely inspects for corrosion, loose wires, and charging issues because Westminster’s elevation, foothill weather, and unique stop-and-go patterns influence how quickly alternators wear out. If you make frequent short trips, especially in urban traffic, it’s wise to schedule regular checks. We’ll help you understand how to spot early warning signs—like dimming lights or slow starts—so you can address issues before they sideline your routine.

Don't risk losing power on the road. Get safe, efficient repairs that keep your life on track. Call (303) 622-3404 or book your appointment online.

FAQs

  • Q. "Why is the alternator important?"
    The alternator helps the battery maintain power. As the car is driving, it’s gaining power from the engine. During this time, the alternator is charging the battery. When the car stops running, the charge from the alternator allows the battery to continue providing power to the car.
  • Q. "What does the alternator do?"
    As an alternate source of power, the alternator helps many features in the car run. It helps your air conditioning maintain proper airflow, powers the radio, and turns on the headlights, among other things. It can also add power to the engine.
  • Q. "Where is the alternator located?"
    You’ll typically find the alternator near the front of the engine, bolted in with two brackets. One is adjustable (to allow for drive belt-tightening) while the other is fixed.
  • Q. "What are some signs that my starter is going bad?"
    Some common symptoms that your starter is going bad or is dead include: clicking or other odd noises, lights working in your car but the engine won't turn, taking more than one attempt to start, or smoke coming from the hood.
  • Q. "Do you offer a warranty?"
    As part of our Nice difference.® commitment to providing our customers the best auto service experience possible, we also offer a3-year/36,000-mile warranty on all the work that we do. We offer this warranty at every Christian Brothers Automotive nationwide, and it will be honored at any location, regardless of which branch did the initial work.
  • Q. "What is a Digital Vehicle Inspection?"
    With a complimentary Digital Vehicle Inspection (DVI) on every visit, you’ll see firsthand photos of your vehicle from under the hood. We’ll let you know if everything is functioning properly or if there are any areas of concern. You can even approve or deny our service recommendations, all straight from your smartphone, or you can, of course, give us a call and we’ll explain our findings in further detail.
