Since he was a child, Michael has loved anything with wheels. During his younger years, he spent his time admiring his dad's big semi truck and fixing his toy cars. In his kindergarten class, he said one of his favorite activities was "fixing their dump truck and hammering". When he was a little bit older, he started "Mike's Lawn Service".
Uncomfortable temperatures seem to be magnified when you're behind the wheel. Maintaining functional and efficient air conditioning and heating systems in your vehicle can make the difference between a fun and relaxed road trip and a torturous journey. Our services are comprehensive, and we are experienced and trained in all types of automotive air conditioning systems.
And taking steps to get them fixed at the first sign of trouble could save your life. If you hear a grinding sound or feel a shaking or vibration sensation you may need new brakes right away! Your driving habits determine how often you need brake maintenance, and the frequency can range from every 20,000 to every 100,000 miles.
And your check engine light lets you know something's wrong. The federal government mandated that all cars built from 1996 -on be equipped with what's called OBDII. This is an on-board diagnostic system for your vehicle's engine and emissions systems. Most vehicles also have on-board computers for the transmission and drivetrain.
It delivers coolant, commonly called antifreeze, throughout the engine to prevent excessive mechanical wear caused by running either too hot or too cold. We inspect your cooling system as a whole and repair any issues including your radiator, hoses, belts and coolant leaks. Because your automobile burns fuel, it produces a lot of heat.

quick, affordable and professional. We had our catalitic converter stolen and Benchmark ordered the part from out of state and had us back on the road in 24hours and for about $1200 less and a week sooner than the dealership said they could do it. Will defineatly give them our business in the future.

This guy puts in work! Michael runs the shop by himself with his brother giving him a hand when needed. I come in with a bazaar situation where my clutch peddle assembly is broken. See that he already has vehicles being worked on up on the two lifts already. So I ask when is the quickest you can start on my car because other competitive company's were telling me they won't be able to for at least two days! He said he will take a look at it later that day and determine a plan of action. I get a call 3 hours later and he's already done... my clutch peddle is working better then ever and he did it

Outstanding service! My car's A/C went out on Friday. I called the shop after business hours and left a voicemail. Mike returned my call that same evening and shifted his schedule to work on my car first thing Monday morning as I'm moving out of state at the end of the week. He repaired my car the same day and was very pleasant to work with throughout the entire process. Did I say outstanding customer service? I would refer him to anyone I know. Great job! Thank you!
