Helpful answers
Quick answers from this business profile.
How often should I get an oil change? +
Most vehicles need an oil change every 3,000 to 5,000 miles for conventional oil, or up to 7,500 miles with synthetic oil. Always check the vehicle owner's manual for specific recommendations.
What does a Check Engine light mean? +
The Check Engine light can indicate a range of issues from a loose gas cap to more serious engine problems. Big A Auto Sales & Service recommends having the vehicle diagnosed by a professional promptly.
How often should I rotate my tires? +
Tire rotation should be done every 6,000 to 8,000 miles to promote even tire wear and extend tire life.
When should I replace my air filter? +
Generally, air filters should be replaced every 15,000 to 30,000 miles, but dusty environments may require more frequent changes.
How can I tell if my brakes need replacing? +
Signs include squealing or grinding noises, a soft brake pedal, vibration while braking, or longer stopping distances. Brake issues are critical for safety and should be addressed promptly.

Great prices, good inspection and excellent software to view it right from the phone and discuss it with the tech. Had an issue come up on my vehicle and they didn’t try to upcharge me knowing it was something the dealership would have to take care of. Really appreciated the help and being mindful of my wallet!

I had never been to Big A. I only went there because I needed a convenient way to drop off one of our vehicles somewhere over the last weekend and I saw they had nightly drop off. I didn't have an appointment for anything. Just had purchased a salvage title vehicle that I needed to get checked out. The entire process with these guys was absolutely amazing. The details with their inspection was top notch. Zach was really helpful, we spoke on the phone a few times. They went well above and beyond any expectations I had. HONEST and FRIENDLY are the best words to describe Big A Auto. We have 3 vehicles and 2 kids that will need vehicles. You... I had never been to Big A.

Great service! I have a few follow up maintenance items and appreciate the straight forward conversation on next steps and not pushy to get it done now. That makes a difference. I will be back...again!
