"Work Ethic" defines this young man named Jesus…

  Jesus Llamas, an impressive rising senior at Cleveland High School in Reseda interned at AutoAid this summer for 6 weeks. Jesus was introduced as a young student of business and entrepreneurship. His focus was on learning as much as he could about starting, running and promoting a business as though it was his own. His interest in cars, service and auto body shined through with his eagerness and enthusiasm to start each day.

Van Nuys folks should understand, however, that the air conditioner will continue to pump out cool air even without the lubricant, so you won’t know the system is sick until it actually ... read more

A Cold Day In Van Nuys

Most Van Nuys drivers worry about a breakdown or a tire blowout on a busy CA freeway but don’t worry too much about failure of their air conditioning system. A breakdown at the side of the road can be a miserable and dangerous affair during Los Angeles rush hour, but so can a long ride in a hot sedan. A lot of Van Nuys drivers judge their vehicles’ air conditioning systems as “non-essential” and so may neglect them in favor of repairs and maintenance that keeps the sedan running. But preventive maintenance of an air conditioning system is simple and inexpensive, while auto a/c repair can be very costly in Van Nuys. Tarzana car owners should have the refrigerant in their air conditioning system checked regularly to ensure it is adequate and clean. Air conditioning systems often fail because air and water have contaminated the refrigerant. Air reduces the e ... read more
