Services
At Maclane's Automotive, we take a holistic approach to all of our customers' vehicles and their diagnostic, service and auto repair needs.
We assess each car thoroughly, find the root cause of any automotive issue, we do our research of the make/model/year of the car or truck if necessary, and always consider repairing before replacement (something that makes us different from taking your car to a dealership).
We get to know our customers so we understand how they're using their vehicle whether it is; driving just around town, long commutes, highway vs. city driving, etc.

We advise all of our customers to never ignore a check engine light when it comes on in your car or truck.
A check engine light could be indicating a problem that is easily fixable - like a simple adjustment or a replacement car part.
Driving long distances with the check engine light on may result in a larger automotive problem.
A few reasons for a check engine light could be a loose gas cap, a problem with the MAF sensor or circuit, the car's system running too rich or too lean, a cylinder misfire, a knock sensor circuit malfunction, insufficient exhaust gas re-circulation flow, a below threshold catalyst system efficiency or a faulty oxygen sensor.
