Technician Training at Sterling Tire & Auto

October 8, 2014



Your car is important to you and keeping it running properly is vital to your Sterling Heights lifestyle. That's why you're smart to have it serviced regularly at Sterling Tire & Auto in Sterling Heights. And even though it may just be routine maintenance, you want it done right by automotive professionals.

It's also very important to your Sterling Heights service center to keep you happy and on the road. You might be surprised at the amount of money our Sterling Heights auto service center spends annually to make sure our friendly service specialists are properly trained.

  Sterling Tire & Auto offers a variety of automotive services for many kinds of vehicles. We need to be current on the latest techniques and parts so that we can give you quality service. Our Sterling Heights centers subscribe to data services that list the high quality parts and fluids recommended by your manufacturer.

And each service has a checklist of standard procedures. Sterling Tire & Auto technicians follow these procedures so they can safely deliver a consistent level of high-quality service.

Some services at Sterling Tire & Auto require the use of specialized equipment. Sterling Tire & Auto technicians are trained extensively on this equipment so that they can service your car quickly and efficiently.

Classroom, video and hands-on training is provided by the company and outside trainers. It's not only important that friendly technicians be able to perform a given task, they also need to be thoroughly trained in inspection and diagnostic techniques. One of the great services they perform is to detect potential problems before they become serious (and expensive).

The automotive service industry has standards for classifying and communicating problems to drivers. For example, it's one thing to learn that your manufacturer recommends that you change your serpentine belt every 30,000 miles and another to learn that the belt is on the verge of failure. These standards help you understand the urgency of recommendations, letting you make better automotive service decisions.

Michigan folks may be interested to know that service technicians (including those at Sterling Tire & Auto) are trained in compliance with federal and local Sterling Heights laws and regulations, including environmental regulations regarding the disposal of used parts and fluids.

It's the goal of Sterling Tire & Auto to provide fast, courteous service. You should feel free to ask your friendlytech or one of the managers about your service or for more information about their recommendations.

At Sterling Tire & Auto, well-trained service providers, established procedures, industry standards, and, of course, AutoNetTV, combine to give you the best auto service in Sterling Heights.
