The day I came in for my smog certificate I had a sick relative at home and almost rescheduled. I shared my concern with the gentleman at the counter…… who kindly said "don't worry we'll get you in and out of here in no time " I swear it wasn't more than 10-15 mins later, he handed me my keys and my certificate. Every time I've been there I come away more impressed….. They are efficient, friendly, professional and very importantly Honest

Car enthusiasts would argue that "those were the days". Everything you drove was built like a tank and had the chrome on it so you enjoyed washing it but NO power steering. For most of us, it is hard to remember life without power steering – cranking those great big steering wheels? It was a pretty good workout. Now power steering is standard. The heart of any power steering system is its pump. The pump pressurizes the power steering fluid that provides assistance for steering. Most pumps are driven by a belt that is run by the engine – a few are electrically powered. A high-pressure hose passes fluid from the pump to the steering gear. A low-pressure hose returns the fluid back to the pump. Here at Reeves Auto Repair in San Luis Obispo, CA we know that you depend on that power steering and check your fluid & hoses religiously!
