Brake Repair & Replacement

Squealing, grinding, or a soft pedal are all signs your brakes need attention, and waiting too long can turn a simple fix into a bigger repair bill. At TJ’s Auto Repair, we inspect your entire brake system before we recommend anything, so you know exactly what’s worn and what can wait.

Suspension & Steering

If your ride feels rough, bounces after every bump, or pulls to one side, your suspension or steering components are likely due for attention. We repair and replace shocks, struts, control arms, and sway bar links so your vehicle handles the way it’s supposed to, especially after another hard pothole season.

Oil Changes & Fluid Services

Regular oil changes are the simplest way to protect your engine, and we make them fast and affordable without cutting corners. We check your fluid levels, filter, and overall engine condition at every visit, so small issues get caught before they become expensive ones. Whether you’re due for a routine change.

Exhaust Repair & Replacement

When your muffler, pipes, or catalytic converter are too rusted or damaged to repair, we’ll replace what’s needed to get your vehicle running quiet and passing inspection again. Vermont winters are hard on exhaust systems, road salt speeds up rust, so we see this a lot and know how to spot it early.

Tires & Tire Service

From flat repairs to full seasonal changeovers, we handle everything your tires need to keep you safely on the road through every Vermont season. That includes the winter tire swap almost every driver here needs, done right and done fast. We’ll help you pick the right tire for your vehicle, your budget, and how you actually drive

Engine Repair & Diagnostics

Whether it’s a rough idle, a strange noise, reduced power, or a check engine light that won’t go away, our technicians diagnose the real issue before recommending any repair. We handle everything from minor engine repairs to more involved diagnostic work, always with a clear explanation of what’s wrong and what it’ll cost to fix.

Coolant Flushes

Old, contaminated coolant loses its ability to protect your engine from overheating in summer and freezing in winter. A coolant flush clears out old fluid and buildup, then refills your system with fresh coolant matched to your vehicle’s specs.

A/C Repair & Recharge

Warm air blowing when you need cold, or an A/C that’s stopped working altogether, usually points to a refrigerant leak, a failing compressor, or a worn component somewhere in the system. We diagnose the actual cause instead of just recharging your system.

Bodywork

From minor dents and scrapes to more significant collision damage, our bodywork gets your vehicle looking and functioning the way it should. We match paint, repair panels, and make sure everything underneath, not just the surface, is properly restored.

Insurance claims

Dealing with an insurance claim after an accident can be more stressful than the accident itself. We help you navigate the process from start to finish, working directly with your insurance company so you don’t have to sort out the details alone.

Sensor Replacements

Modern vehicles rely on dozens of sensors to run properly, and a single failed sensor can trigger a check engine light, rough running, or reduced fuel efficiency. We diagnose exactly which sensor is causing the issue using proper diagnostic equipment, not guesswork.

Windshield Wipers

Streaking, skipping, or squeaking wipers make it harder to see in Vermont’s rain, snow, and mixed weather, and worn blades are one of the easiest and most affordable fixes we offer. We stock wiper blades for most makes and models and can swap yours out quickly.
