Diagnostic & System Evaluations

Question’s we hear from our customers.

“Why is my Check Engine Light On?” or “Who Can Fix my Check Engine Light?

Automotive Diagnostic & System Evaluations Cars and trucks have become smarter over the past 4 decades. The introduction of monitoring systems beginning in the mid to late 1980’s, have helped provide the auto service industry with diagnostic information. This diagnostic information may be critical in repairing your car properly. Your “Check Engine”, or an image of an engine may appear in your vehicles dashboard or information screen. Don’t worry, bring your vehicle into Stroebel Automotive and we will perform a thorough diagnostic to identify the potential issue.

Today, automotive diagnostic systems are even smarter, providing vital data about many of your cars major components that may include:

Anti-lock brakes
Transmission
Fuel injection
Air conditioning
Power steering
Cooling systems

Unfortunately, not all problems with your vehicle are displayed or even caught by your vehicles on board computer. This may be due to a part not being monitored, or a possible fault in the monitoring system itself. In this situation, It may require a road test diagnostic be performed by our expert staff to find the problem.

Fortunately our ASE Certified technicians at Stroebel Automotive are trained in the best automotive diagnostic procedures. With over 30 years of experience, you can be confident we have the tools, monitoring equipment, and the skill necessary to pinpoint electrical or mechanical problems and keep you on the road.

Dear Dale, Brandy, and Ben;

I really appreciate the removal Ben did of the spare tire from underneath my 2008 Uplander. I can now use my spare in case I have a flat. I would have been in a real mess if I would have ever had a flat out on a highway somewhere, and my spare refusing to release from under the van. Thanks again Ben.

If more people would take a look at under the mini vans spare tire periodically, there would be an awfully lot of folks shocked at how rusty and corroded their spare and the underbody carrier mechanism is, particularly here in Michigan. (more…)

I brought my vehicle to Stroebel’s under emergency circumstances and after a quick thorough diagnosis found I only needed a new battery. Dale did point out that I would need a coolant system flush in the near future which I scheduled for the next week. Dale and Brandy were not only professional and helpful but also a pleasure to work with. I won’t hesitate to recommend this business to all my family and friends. Thank you both so much.

Dale and his staff provide top-notch customer service as well as competent and thorough mechanical services, all at a reasonable price. How good are they? I drive from the Flint area to Saginaw to visit Stroebel Automotive. I would not hesitate to take my Jeep there again in the future (and with the way I treat mine, I am sure we will see him again). Make sure to see Dale for your specialized 4×4 needs too.Thanks again Dale!

Dale has been servicing all my vehicles for the past few years. I can trust Dale to do he best job and at great prices. I would not go anywhere else.

Pat L.

I would not take my car anywhere else, the service here can’t be beat. I don’t refer people to places I don’t trust so sending them here is no problem. Only place I will take any of my cars.

When I first took my car to Dale I was prepared for the answer I had received from many other auto mechanics. They all agreed I should sell the car; there was no answer to my problem. When I explained it to Dale he knew right away what was causing the problem and had it fixed that same day! Dale’s knowledge and honesty supersedes all the rest!
