New School: Automotive Advantage Auto Repair & Transmisson Technician Training

Tucson consumers are demanding. We want a safe, reliable vehicle that handles well and is comfortable to ride in. Oh, and we want good fuel economy, too. We also want vehicle repairs that are cheap, fast and easy. Unfortunately, one usually comes at the cost of the other.

Today’s vehicles have made significant improvements in reliability and performance over the last few decades. They also deliver more power to Tucson drivers more efficiently than ever before. For example, some of today’s 4-cylinder engines are equal to yesterday’s V-8’s. Our vehicles also offer an amazing range of features that make them more comfortable and convenient than ever before.

But all of that improvement has come at a price for Tucson vehicle owners. Our vehicles are more complicated and difficult to repair than ever before. They have numerous mechanical and electrical systems. Fuel systems are so complex they have to be run by a computer. Our vehicles are covered with sensors and high-tech electronic equipment. Our dashboards rival the control panel of the first manned space flight.

Today’s technicians need to be certified to work on our vehicles. They can earn a variety of certifications in AZ, but the highest of these is Master Technician. It’s like a graduate degree in auto repair.

A proper diagnosis, even by a highly qualified technician, can take time. And a technician’s time is going to cost us. It’s just the price of progress.

Of course, the best vehicle care for Tucson vehicle owners is planned preventive auto maintenance. This is also the least costly way to keep your vehicle in good repair. Regular inspections and replacement of worn parts will prevent most repairs from ever being needed in the first place.
