    • Vehicle Tips

      According to recent studies, 5 percent of all motor vehicle fatalities are clearly caused by automobile maintenance neglect.

    • Vehicle Tips

      The cooling system should be completely flushed and refilled about every 24 months. The level, condition, and concentration of coolant should be checked. (A 50/50 mix of anti-freeze and water is usually recommended.)

    • Vehicle Tips

      Never remove the radiator cap until the engine has thoroughly cooled. The tightness and condition of drive belts, clamps and hoses should be checked by a pro.

    • Vehicle Tips

      Change your oil and oil filter as specified in your manual, or more often (every 3,000 miles) if you make frequent short jaunts, extended trips with lots of luggage or tow a trailer.

    • Vehicle Tips

      Replace other filters (air, fuel, PCV, etc.) as recommended, or more often in dusty conditions. Get engine drivability problems (hard stops, rough idling, stalling, diminished power, etc.) corrected at a good shop.

    • Vehicle Tips

      A dirty windshield causes eye fatigue and can pose a safety hazard. Replace worn blades and get plenty of windshield washer solvent.

    • Vehicle Tips

      Have your tires rotated about every 5,000 miles. Check tire pressures once a month; let the tires cool down first. Don't forget your spare and be sure your jack is in good condition.

    • Vehicle Tips

      Check your owner's manual to find out what fuel octane rating your car's engine needs then buy it.

    • Vehicle Tips

      Keep your tires inflated to the proper levels. Under-inflated tires make it harder for your car to move down the road, which means your engine uses more fuel to maintain speed.

    • Vehicle Tips

      Lighten the load. Heavier vehicles use more fuel, so clean out unnecessary weight in the passenger compartment or trunk before you hit the road.

    • Vehicle Tips

      Use the A/C sparingly. The air conditioner puts extra load on the engine forcing more fuel to be used.

    • Vehicle Tips

      Keep your windows closed. Wide-open windows, especially at highway speeds, increase aerodynamic drag and the result is up to a 10% decrease in fuel economy.

    • Vehicle Tips

      Avoid long idling. If you anticipate being stopped for more than one minute, shut off the car. Contrary to popular belief, restarting the car uses less fuel than letting it idle.

    • Vehicle Tips

      Stay within posted speed limits. The faster you drive, the more fuel you use. For example, driving at 65 miles per hour (mph) rather than 55 mph, increases fuel consumption by 20 percent.

    • Vehicle Tips

      Use cruise control. Using cruise control on highway trips can help you maintain a constant speed and, in most cases, reduce your fuel consumption.

    • Vehicle Tips

      Keep your engine tuned. A fouled spark plug or plugged/restricted fuel injector can reduce fuel efficiency as much as 30 percent.

    • Vehicle Tips

      Inspect the engine's belts regularly. Look for cracks or missing sections or segments. Worn belts will affect the engine performance.

    • Vehicle Tips

      Have the fuel filter changed every 10,000 miles to prevent rust, dirt and other impurities from entering the fuel system.

    • Vehicle Tips

      Change the transmission fluid and filter every 15,000 to 18,000 miles. This will protect the precision-crafted components of the transmission/transaxle.

    • Vehicle Tips

      Inspect the suspension system regularly. This will extend the life of the vehicle's tires.

Reviews and comments from our satisfied customers

  • Excellent service! They were short handed, but they were able to work me in and take care of my A/C issues the very next day. Couldn't ask for better care!


    -Ashli Stovall - Lumberton, Tx

  • For around 30+ years now, Chad's is the only automotive repair service place that I completely trust! It's true! I have recommended Chad's for years, and every time he's worked on my vehicles, I have been more that pleased! I can honestly say that I know Chad, and his employees, will be very professional in whatever work they do, and they stand behind their work! We need more honest working people like Chad and his crew, who won't take advantage of people! Thanks again, Chad!


    -Jeanne Challie - Kountze

  • All repairs / service to my auto were done quickly and at a reasonable, fair price. I was informed of any problems that were found and treated honestly. I would recommend this shop for all mechanical needs. Thanks chad! Charles Ener


    -Charles Ener - Broaddus, Texas

  • Very honest and fair. Working on vehicles can be very expensive with today's technology. Chad is very knowledgeable and they have the latest technology to work on newer vehicles. Nancy at the front desk is very nice.


    -ACS - Lumberton

  • Dropped off truck to have A/C worked on, had it done very fast. The whole staff is very nice, I would definitely recommend them for anyone.


    -B.B.

  • Chad's offers great service! They kept me informed every step of the way. Very reliable service. The two ladies in the office were also very kind and helpful. Thank you!


    -M.D.

  • Best mechanic ever met, fair and square dealer.


    -L.B.

  • Great work, great staff. Wonderful office ladies. This was my second time in 3 months to have a problem, and all was explained where I could understand it. I feel I was not taken advantage of like I have at dealerships with my other car. Keep up the good work, and may God bless your business.


    -M.S.

  • Thanks for cleaning my Mass Airflow sensor and getting me going for a little over a hundred bucks. The way my truck was running I was sure I was going to be paying for some major repairs.


    -J.M.

  • I completely trust my car with Chad's Automotive and know of several people who are very happy with their service. They have always been very honest and trustworthy. It is hard to find an automotive place you can trust, especially as a woman, and Chad is very honest and fair. He explains what it needs and why. Equipment for working on cars and labor is expensive and we shouldn't expect automotive shops to do it for very little to nothing. I would definitely refer anyone to them.
