Even if your car comes back with a clean bill of health, there's a lot of value in having that peace of mind.

True safety starts with being able to see where you are driving. Your lights and wipers play a major role in safe driving and the chance of an accident increases if you can't see or be seen. No matter what time of year, it's important to make sure your vehicle's lights and wipers are working properly so your visibility is not compromised and you can be seen by others. From the driver's seat, you may not notice a light that isn't working, but when a big rain comes it becomes easier to see what you are missing!

Here at Cruise N' Cool Automotive, Diesel & Fleet Repair we take our Pompano Beach drivers' safety seriously and inspect their vehicles when they come in for service.
