The Electrical Gremlin Specialist

Lights that come and go. ABS faults nobody can find. A truck that dies and then starts fine an hour later. Intermittent electrical problems are where most shops start throwing parts at the truck. Dave traces them to the actual cause and fixes it once.

Describe the problem

Meet Dave

Dave has been turning wrenches for more than 20 years. When you call, you talk to Dave. When the truck gets fixed, Dave is the one fixing it. No call center, no runaround, just a mechanic who does the job right and tells you the truth about your truck.

When he isn't working on yours, he's usually working on his own.
