My Ford F150 was making a whirring noise that sounded like it was coming from the back, so I assumed the differential was going out. The experts at Garcia's expertly located the noise as coming from my front wheel bearings. Naturally, my front-end needed some critical work. At first it looked like I might be out of a truck for a while. Since I commute into Dallas everyday, I couldn't be without my vehicle, but I didn't want to breakdown on LBJ at 5PM in the afternoon! I turned my truck over to the professional mechanics at Garcia's and they jumped around and had me up and running again in record time. Truck is running great. No more whirring, no more shimmying when I break. It drives great. Thanks Garcia Automotive! It was a pricey repair but the price was fair. It could have been much worse without your expert care.

You trust your diesel to get you to point A to point B every time you get into your truck. However in return, if your truck starts to act differently take the time to pause and listen to what your truck is trying to tell you.

At Garcia Automotive Service in Greenville, thermostat replacements are just one of many repairs we tackle.
