  • 1966 Caprice: Who would you recommend to have my engine rebuilt?
  • 2014 Chevrolet Silverado: I’ve been losing power steering intermittently along with my dash lights coming on and off. Have you seen this problem with these trucks before?
  • 2006 Jaguar: After some repairs, my fuel gauge stopped working. I was told this was a computer issue to accommodate the new fuel pump. What advice can you give me?
  • Dodge Dakota: I’ve had problems with high RPMs. Could this be a transmission issue or something related to my tow haul?
