A Ding Becomes a Spider.

It sounds like a line from a Dr. Seuss book, but if you are driving the highways of the Kansas City area this summer it can be all too real.  When that stray pebble hits your windshield, it may start out as a tiny hole.  Before you know it, your vision may be obscured by a growing “spider” expanding its way across the glass.

Can a cracked windshield shatter?  The short answer is YES!  Windshields are held in place with strong urethane adhesives, which prevent leaks, noise and movement of the glass.  Because the glass is laminated, the entire windshield generally won’t separate from the frame.  That does not mean it is safe.  Your windshield’s structural integrity has been compromised.

Don’t tempt fate!  Make an appointment to have your car’s windshield replaced by the A-Team.  That’s the team of auto care professionals at Able Auto Service.  They are one of the top places in the KC Metro for car repair, etc.  Able Auto Service is located at 837 Osage Ave. in Kansas City KS.  Call ahead for a convenient appointment at (913) 321-1030.

Reprogramming your Engine Computer.

Flashing — or erasing and reprogramming — your engine’s computer is a legitimate and legal way to keep a car’s engine control modules (ECMs) up to date.  If your vehicle is from 1996 or newer this will ensure that the microprocessors in such areas as the power train and fuel injectors are regulating their systems properly.

How exactly does the process work?  When reprogramming an engine computer, a scanner is attached to the diagnostic port in a car, which is typically inside the car, beneath the steering wheel.  Then, old programming is erased and replaced with the most up-to-date software provided by the auto manufacturer.  With progress comes responsibility.

To stay on track, call the A-Team for an appointment to have your car’s engine computer reprogrammed.  They are the auto repair and maintenance professionals at Able Auto Service.  You simply can’t do better for auto care in the Kansas City area.  Able Auto Service is located at 837 Osage Ave. in Kansas City KS.  Call for an appointment at (913) 321-1030.
