Certified Auto Repair Specialists opened during the early days of COVID in 2020. Solid business has allowed a move to a bigger shop on Nolan Trace, investments in high quality tools, and the latest equipment. They are able to provide the most minor repairs all the way up to custom engine design and builds.
Right now, through the end of March, CARS is offering a special on wheel alignments. Purchase a set of four tires and get an alignment for half-price. A well aligned vehicle has improved fuel economy, reduced noise levels, and less vibration. When tires are unbalanced, uneven wear occurs, reducing the life of your tire and potentially causing driving hazards. A minor misalignment can take thousands of miles off a tire’s life. A major misalignment, especially in the toe angle, can chew through your tire tread depth in just a few hundred miles if not corrected.
Owner Charles Renz and wife Roisin believe in treating customers the way they like to be treated. Their Christian faith is an important part of the business operation. The business logo for CARS includes a carpenter’s hammer in the middle. This symbolizes how the Renzes go through life and operate their business. Before Jesus became the greatest teacher, he was a carpenter. The carpenter’s hammer is a constant reminder that Jesus is at the center of all they do at CARS.
Charles has over 30 years of honing his mechanical skills, starting by working in a Seattle oil shop. He has taken advanced automotive classes and offers years of hands-on experience. In 1998 he earned the level of Master Certified Technician from the National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence (ASE). That, of course, is the gold standard in the US and Canada for auto repair technicians. Master Technicians must re-certify every five years. Charles has gone way beyond that. He holds Advance Level certifications in L1-Advanced Engine Performance Specialist Certification, X1-Under Specialist Exhaust Systems Certification and C1-Xervice Consultant Certification.
There are 197,440 ASE technicians in the US. Only 69,678 of them are Master Automobile Technicians and less than 35,000 of those are L1 Certified. One of those is Charles Renz at CARS.
