Clean fluid allows smooth, effortless turning with a single finger. If your wheel is groaning or feeling heavy, turn to the team at Pat's Auto Repair & Towing for a fluid check! 🛞💪

A misaligned suspension doesn't just make driving annoying. It chews up your expensive tires unevenly, shortening their lifespan by thousands of miles. If your tires are wearing thin on just the inside or outside edges, your alignment is off! A wheel alignment restores straight-line tracking and keeps your tire investment protected. Get one at Pat's Auto Repair & Towing in Hastings.

Thinking about topping off your washer fluid with a splash from the garden hose? Think twice! 🚫🚰 It feels like a quick hack, but plain water drops the ball on two major things:

Zero Cleaning Power: Water can't dissolve sticky bug guts, tree sap, or road grime. Instead, it just smears a blurry streak across your glass.
The Freeze Factor: Come cold weather, water freezes solid inside the plastic reservoir, leading to cracks in the tank and damage to the tiny pump motor inside!

Keep a jug of real fluid in your trunk instead! If your car needs a top-off in addition to other maintenance, give Pat's Auto Repair & Towing a call or visit our team in Hastings, NE.

💥 You had a minor bump, pulled over safely, turned off the key, and now... nothing. Why won't your car start after a small accident?

Even a low-speed fender bender can disrupt components under the hood. Here are the 3 most common culprits:

A Dislodged Battery Cable
Neutral Safety Switch Misalignment
Collision/Accident Cutoff

If you're stuck after a bump, don't force it. Give the Pat's Auto Repair & Towing team a call, and we'll get it checked out!

Think of your dashboard warning lights like a traffic signal.

Yellow/Orange Lights (Check Engine, Tire Pressure): These are warnings. Your car is telling you that something is operating outside its normal parameters. You don’t need to pull over immediately on the highway, but you should schedule an appointment as soon as you can.

Red Lights (Oil Pressure, Engine Temperature, Brakes): This is an emergency. If a red light flashes or stays on, pull over safely as soon as possible and turn off the engine.
