Services
AC Repair
Our certified technicians diagnose and repair automotive air conditioning systems using specialized equipment. We service all domestic and import vehicles, replacing worn components and recharging refrigerant to restore optimal cooling performance. Regular AC maintenance prevents breakdowns during peak summer months while improving fuel efficiency by reducing engine strain.
Brake Service
We provide comprehensive brake system inspections and repairs for all vehicle types. Our services include pad replacement, rotor resurfacing, and hydraulic system maintenance using quality components. Proper brake maintenance ensures safety compliance while extending the lifespan of related suspension components through balanced wear distribution.
Oil Changes
Our quick lube service follows manufacturer-recommended intervals using appropriate viscosity ratings. We inspect fluid levels, replace filters, and check for potential leaks during each visit. Regular oil changes prevent engine wear, maintain performance specifications, and help identify emerging mechanical issues before they become major repairs.
Transmission Service
We perform transmission diagnostics, fluid exchanges, and major repairs using specialized tools. Our technicians service both automatic and manual transmissions, replacing filters and gaskets to maintain shifting precision. Regular transmission maintenance extends vehicle lifespan and prevents costly failures through early detection of wear patterns.
Alignment
Our alignment service uses computerized equipment to adjust suspension angles within manufacturer specifications. We correct caster, camber, and toe-in settings to ensure even tire wear and proper vehicle tracking. Regular alignment checks improve fuel efficiency, enhance handling characteristics, and extend tire lifespan through balanced contact patch distribution.

I finally found a mechanic who treats me fairly and does great work. Nearly everyone in our shop goes there for anything from purchasing a vehicle to major and minor repair work. They have a great time and great attitude. I highly recommend!

Honest, reliable and friendly. My best car buying experience ever. I went for a test drive with Dennis, asked questions about car service and warranty they offer. His answers and comments make me feel I was talking to my father, that simple. Billy is very professional, friendly and full of knowledge. After we agreed on the price, they installed brand new rotors and brake pads with not extra costs. I highly recommend Grimards to friends and family.

I would highly recommend Grimard's to anyone looking to buy a car. I went there as a first time car buyer and the process could not have been better. Grimard's makes buying a car a fun experience where most people dread the car buying process. Billy is one of the most genuine and trustworthy salesmen I have ever met, and it is very refreshing to see that especially in the used car market. They went above and beyond through all parts of the selling process, and myself being a new car buyer, Billy took the extra time to give me some tips and pointers about what to look for with a car and also in the buying and paperwork process. No doubt in my mind I will be back there in the future when I am in the market again. 10/10 experience all around
