Schedule a complete and Engine Diagnostics (Professional Maintenance) check every 15, 30, 60, and 90,000 miles.
The diagnostics of a car’s engine are very complicated. Nothing really tells you when anything has gone awry. Most cars have a Check Engine light that turns on, but even this light does not indicate exactly what the problem is. The only way to find out is to have your mechanic run an engine diagnostics test on your vehicle.
There are several reasons to have a full diagnostics test run on your car. With today’s vehicles being basically run by computers, if anything goes wrong an indicator light will turn on. Take the vehicle to your mechanic when the light comes on. Make sure you have a qualified, certified mechanic that you know and trust. He will be the one, who will help keep your car running smoothly for a long time.
If you are a do-it-yourselfer, you can get many diagnostic supplies at your local mechanic shop as well. In addition, he can help you with any questions you may have. For most new cars it is necessary to have state of the art diagnostic equipment and trained technicians to decipher the root cause of your car engine’s issues.
Check and/or change your Air Filter every 6 months to improve fuel economy and keep your engine running smoothly.
Most car batteries today are maintenance-free, sealed and can last more than three years. The first sign your battery should be replaced is often trouble starting the engine
Have your antifreeze fluid changed and Cooling System flushed every 30,000 miles or 2 years. Newer formulas, however, may last up to 50,000 miles.
Schedule a complete and Engine Diagnostics (Professional Maintenance) check every 15, 30, 60, and 90,000 miles.

Tire rotation or rotating tires is the the practice of moving automobile wheels and tires from one position on the car to another, to ensure even tire wear.
Have your Wheel Alignment checked every other tire rotation and always when installing new tires. Wheel alignment sometimes referred to as tracking, is part of standard automobile maintenance

This is for great customer service. I pulled in this morning because my back tire was low. I can't bend to put air in it. Even though they were booked… read more with appointments, they were nice enough to check the air pressure in all my tires and adjust as needed. I will return when I need tires. Thank you, good customer service is hard to find.

Fantastic service, expert personnel, great prices… they charge too little! Bonus: They (rather than a phone hell recording) promptly answer the phone, and make it easy to get an appointment.

I got exceptional service here at Joe's Tires! I went in for a flat tire and was able to be seen immediately on a Saturday. They also found another nail… read more in another tire! They were able to patch one for about ~$30 and had to get a new tire for the other. It was a bummer but they were able to handle it all for me and get me on the road by the next business day- Monday because they are closed on Sundays. Total was about $250-$280- not bad for patch, new tire, labor. Also the staff was incredibly friendly and understanding that I was upset- not at them but me getting nails in my tires *facepalm*. It was lame but glad Joe's Tires were there to help in a stressful time with the most hospitality!

Excellent service! From scheduling to greeting me as I drove up, to picking up my car. Tito, was
Great! (Hope that's his name). He volunteered useful information about my car… read more that I didn't even ask for. The entire experience was easy and a pleasure. Recommend!

Tito!!! You and your team went above and beyond! Thank you.
I want to share what an amazing and generous experience I had
Last Thursday working with Paul and Manuel(and Tito at… read more the referral tire shop down the road- Joe's Tires.)
I was driving home from UCSF with my partner who just had shoulder surgery and was post-op 2 hours.
We were driving along the 580/80 just before the Richmond Bridge split, and my brand new Volvo XC60 Hybrid, Pirelli Scorpion low profile tire blew out. There was a bolt in it that dislodged and the tire lost air.
We safely pulled off the freeway, not knowing the area at all, into a industrial area with few around.
As we turned the corner, we saw Toyota Berkeley Autobody. In a panic with the patient in the car, I parked and walked in asking for help.
Paul saw my concern and immediately had me pull in to assess the problem and learned these cars do not have spares because of the battery in the back for hybrid use.
A flaw about this high end Volvo.
Paul and Manuel swiftly went into problem solving mode while I called a friend to pick up my patient in the car.
They took great care of me for the next several hours helping me get to a nearby tire place and put a temp tire on my car. These tires are not in stock anywhere as they are specialized, another issue to take up with Volvo. (I have had 7 Volvo cars and never an issues with tires like this because Of the hybrid.
Paul a d Tito at Joe's Tires did not charge me for their time or help with any of this. They saw two people in need of help and put us ahead of any financial gain.
Generous, kind, helpful, willing! We need more of this in the world. Thank you Paul, Manuel, and Tito.
We are home safe and swiftly because of you 3 kind men

I can't say enough good thing's about Joe's Tires. We bought a set of four tires about 10 months ago for our Toyota Highlander and the price was great. The… read more team installed them quickly and they were very helpful and polite. We just had a flat (ran over a screw) and they fixed it for free. Not only was it covered by their warranty but they put it back on the car and remounted my spare under the car. Really great customer service! We will definitely buy from them again. Highly recommended.
John R.
Very quick and simple. No upselling and whatnot. On top of changing my tire, they kindly tidied up the spare back into the compartment.

This is my go to place. The people here are extremely helpful & friendly. I always enjoy seeing Tito everytime I come in to get my car fixed.

My experiences with Joe's Tires have always been great. A few years ago I hit a bad pothole, resulting in damaged tires and two cracked shock absorbers. The repair quote… read more from my dealer made me cry. I'd gotten new tires from Joe's not that long before, and decided to call them for a second opinion. They fixed my car for significantly less and did great work. That made me a loyal customer. Recently hit another pot hole on a dark rural road, which put the car so badly out of alignment I had to pull the steering wheel to the left to keep the car straight. I was really lucky that nothing was truly broken, and the good folks at Joe's were able to correct the severe misalignment and get me up and running smoothly again. From tires, to new break pads, to car batteries, to alignments, and new windshield wipers, I've always felt treated fairly, and with kindness and respect. Thank you, Joe's Tires!
