Starting & Charging

Starting & Charging System Services

Your vehicle’s starting and charging system is involved in regulating multiple electrical processes to start your vehicle’s engine and keep it running. All components within this system are necessary to ensure proper working order, and one bad link between them can render the entire electrical process useless. If you experience problems with starting your vehicle or maintaining its power even after trying a jump start, then allow our service staff to perform a starting and charging system check on your vehicle today.

Expert Starter & Alternator Repair in North Carolina

At Tire Max, our mechanics are trained to handle any number of issues that may occur within your vehicle’s starting and charging system. From battery replacement to alternator repair, we will inspect your vehicle thoroughly to determine the cause of the issue and decide the best course of action.

ALTERNATOR REPLACEMENT

Warning signs that your alternator requires repair or replacement will involve your vehicle’s electrical components. For example, a dashboard warning light may appear, or headlights may dim. In cases where the alternator begins making noise, it is possible that the belt is simply loose. Other times, the smell of burning rubber will signal a problem. No matter what symptoms you are experiencing, we can help. The next time you suspect alternator issues, allow us to take a look and help get you back on the road again.

REPLACING YOUR DEAD BATTERY

If you are having trouble starting your engine, you may need a battery replacement. Although new batteries generally perform well for the first three to five years before they are likely to malfunction, battery life can be shortened from extreme weather conditions or improper maintenance. Unless you have access to the right testing tools, there may be little warning that your battery needs to be replaced. Our staff has the necessary tools to review your battery’s performance, and we will guide you through a replacement if our results indicate that it is needed.

STARTER REPAIR & REPLACEMENT

In addition to an inoperable engine, there are other factors that indicate a replacement is needed. If your starter is making a clicking sound that lasts momentarily or the crank is operating slowly, you may need to change your vehicle’s starter. We can look over your starter and review whether or not it is the culprit of current vehicular troubles. If you are unfamiliar with the type of starter your vehicle uses, we will help you find the right one for your vehicle make and model. Our goal is to get your vehicle running again.

Keep Your System Working With a Starting & Charging Check

During a starting and charging system service, our staff will review the voltage level of your battery, test your alternator, and look over your starter. An inefficient starting and charging system can lead to engine failure, which makes routine maintenance extremely important, especially if you’re already experiencing symptoms like dim headlights, dashboard warning lights, and clicking or growling noises. Some components, like the battery, may give little warning before they fail. At Tire Max, our capable service staff combines the proper tools with extensive automotive knowledge to test and repair the components of your vehicle’s starting and charging system.
