Services We Provide
As a full-service auto repair and tire center, there's nothing we can't handle - no matter how big or how small it is. But certain services are more sought after compared to others. Some of the services that Battle Creek drivers frequently come to Phil Walters Auto include:
- Tire repair, replacement and maintenance: We are proud to be your local tire experts, providing all forms of tire service from purchasing and installation of new tires, tire repairs, tire rotations and alignments. We carry most of today’s top tire brands to ensure your tire matches your driving habits and preferences.
- Steering and suspension: A smooth ride largely relies on your vehicle's suspension for handling and control. If it's out of alignment, your car may pull to one side or the other and you could also see uneven tread wear on your tires. Our technicians have the expertise to ensure optimal steering and suspension performance.
