OMG! FRKN’ POTHOLES! (C’mon, you’ve said it at least once this season). I, personally, have said much worse, so don’t hide it, I get it!
We here at Fletcher’s Garage have seen what damage can be done from the moon surfaces we call PA roads (Jersey is right there too!). While most businesses look at this as just a boon for business, I totally sympathize with our customers’ concerns about what this means to your car and your wallet. It’s like the last 10 years has built this “Perfect Storm” against your car’s Wheel and Suspension Systems.
Road Salt/ Brine solutions used in the winter months really takes a toll on the roads, causing asphalt separation and potholes. Low Profile Tire sidewalls are much smaller nowadays and don’t take these well. Well now, these potholes just sit out there waiting for the unsuspecting, or dare I say, inattentive driver to come down and feed them their diet of Tires, Rims and Control Arms.
If your car somehow survives the hit, stop in Fletcher’s Garage and we will go over the vehicle, checking for bent steering parts, tire brakes and bubbled sidewalls, etc…while you are at your dentist’s office checking for rattling fillings.
Fletcher’s Garage has updated our Computerized Wheel Alignment Equipment and we carry many tire brands to fit your car’s needs and to not hit the wallet like a “3-Bedroom Pothole.” Our main tire brand is the ever-reliable GT Radial, one of the only brands out there with a “Built-in” Road Hazard Warranty.
