Alternator & Car Starter Repair

At Goodyear Auto Service, we’re here to help if you feel you’re having issues starting your vehicle. We’ll begin with an inspection of your alternator and starter, then run a diagnostic of the voltage between the vehicle’s battery, starter and alternator. If repairs are needed, we’ll recommend replacements with costs before beginning the services.

What Does a Car Alternator and Starter Do?

Your starter is what gets your car running—a crucial component to keeping your life humming and on schedule. And your alternator helps charge your battery and distribute electricity throughout the vehicle. Without these components running properly, your car won’t turn on and stay on.
