I recently had my brake pads and front rotors/rear drums replaced, as they hadn't been serviced in a while. The mechanic had to flush the rear brake fluid as well.

As someone who just went through the search for a good mechanic in a new-to-me area, thought I'd pass along a recommendation. H & H Automotive in the Charlotte area seems like a group of good dudes. Joe (the guy running the place) is very communicative, and willing to take the time to talk...

Hello, I own a red TJ and so far I have taken it 4 times to the mechanic because the engine light won’t go off. A couple months ago I had a blinking engine light and I brought it in to the mechanic and he said it was the crankshaft and that’s what was causing the problem. Then the light came...
