Total Auto Repair & Car Care… To Keep Your Vehicle Running Great!

Without regular maintenance, your vehicle’s A/C system can lose about 5% of its original efficiency per year. This means that without proper upkeep, your air conditioning may be performing as poorly as other cars years older! Luckily, you can recover most of that lost efficiency by getting your air conditioner serviced ASAP and sticking to a maintenance schedule. Whether your A/C unit needs to be recharged, or you have a faulty condenser or computer issue, our techs can take care of it, and get you back on the road quickly.

If your check engine light is on or you’re experiencing any type of drivability issues, your next step should be to seek out an engine diagnostic service. Engine diagnostics allow our technicians to gather helpful information about the operating condition of your vehicle and determine the extent of auto repairs you need. Basically, answering the questions: “why’s my check engine light on?” and/or “what’s wrong with my car?” Our technicians are skilled diagnosticians who can pinpoint the issue(s) causing problems for your vehicle.

While generally reliable, a vehicle’s engine is susceptible to damage and breakdown, especially if your car has accumulated high miles over the years. At Five Star Automotive, our mechanics are trained and qualified to handle engine repairs, engine replacements, and engine maintenance to help you get the most from your vehicle. We’re especially skilled at troubleshooting engine performance issues and have experience diagnosing and repairing all engine components, including the cylinder head, cylinder block, and timing belt.

Scheduled maintenance, as prescribed by your vehicle’s manufacturer, is designed to ensure your vehicle’s trouble-free performance. Every car or truck has its own unique maintenance schedule planned to help the vehicle achieve its life expectancy. By regularly maintaining your vehicle, you can avoid costly repairs and/or having to replace major vehicle components. At Five Star Automotive, we can keep your vehicle maintained to stay in compliance with the factory warranty—there’s no reason you must depend on the dealership. 

Jeeps are incredibly popular in Northern California, and rightfully so—it’s lots of fun to own one of these off-road capable vehicles. But often it’s hard to know where to turn for quality, professional Jeep repair and service. Who really gets Jeep vehicles? We do! Five Star Automotive is proud to be one of the top Jeep repair shops in the Patterson area. We also have lots of experience with Jeep modifications and upgrades, so if you’re looking to lift or modify your Jeep, we can get the job done right.

At Five Star Automotive, we tell our customers, “Guessing is easy.” Arriving at an accurate diagnosis takes time and requires knowledge and specialized equipment. The best thing to do if any of your warning lights comes on or your vehicle is giving you trouble, is to bring it in for a diagnostic. We’ll check all the systems, and find the exact issue affecting your vehicle. Identifying the real problem means you’ll get your vehicle repaired correctly the first time, and that service light isn’t going to come on again a few miles down the road.
