Your vehicle is a complex machine with thousands of parts working together to keep everything running properly. Over the many miles you'll share with your vehicle, it's inevitable you'll need service from time to time. Some of this will be expected, such as your routine maintenance. Other times, you may find yourself needing a repair for something a little less common.
At Elkhorn Automotive & Tire Center, we've worked on many vehicles over the years and have repaired both common and rarer problems that can occur in a vehicle. We thought we'd highlight our top five services. These are services that we either see frequently or have specialization performing. If you need any of these automotive services (or another service), don't hesitate to give us a call at (262) 723-5433.

Whether you're driving five minutes to the grocery store or ten hours to your vacation destination, you depend on your brakes along the way. Every stop sign and red light in town will require you to step on the brake pedal and bring your vehicle to a safe halt.
All this braking has an effect on the pads and rotors. Each time you stop, a part known as the caliper squeezes the brake pad against the rotor. The friction between the two causes the rotor to slow, and in turn, slows your tires and wheels.
Each time the brake pad clamps onto the brake rotor, both parts experience wear from use. In time, you'll need to replace your brake pads and rotors to continue stopping safely.
Some motorists only need to replace the brakes once during the life of their vehicle, while others may need to replace brake parts twice or more. Many factors come into play in determining when to change your brake parts, including: how much stop and go traffic you experience, how much you drive, and even environmental factors.
At Elkhorn Automotive & Tire Center, we're asked to perform a decent amount of brake work throughout the year. With so many motorists on the road and the demands of frequent stopping for traffic in and around our area, it's not an uncommon service to see here or in other parts of the country. That's why it makes our list of top five automotive services.

Your steering and suspension system contributes to your ride comfort and handling. When something isn't right with your suspension, it can result in vibrations and a bumpy ride (more so than the pot holes that pop up throughout the year). At Elkhorn Automotive & Tire Center, we specialize in suspension work. Our technicians are on hand to diagnose and solve problems, ensuring your vehicle rides and handles how it should.
We offer the following services:
Contact us whenever you need suspension work done.
When you bought your car, it came with the wheels aligned at angles the manufacturer determined optimal for your make and model.
It's possible to knock your wheels out of alignment over time and from driving. Misalignment can happen due to suspension parts aging or even from hitting pot holes hard.
Noticeable alignment problems include irregular tire wear and tracking problems. If the tracking is off, your vehicle may have a tendency to drift to the left or right when you're trying to stay straight in a lane. You may find yourself "fighting the steering wheel," or you may notice the steering wheel is off-center.
At Elkhorn Automotive & Tire Center, we can check you alignment and realign your wheels. We perform two-wheel alignments and four-wheel alignments.
