In fact, it’s more important than ever to take the time for services such as wheel alignments and brake services in Ithaca when you return to work and a regular routine.

Don’t Let Your Car Face Road Damage in Poor Condition
When you get back to work and back to your normal routine, you may notice that although there hasn’t been much traffic on the roads, there also haven’t been many repairs. Road work and non-essential repairs have ground to a halt, the weather has taken its toll, and you’re going to find some potholes and rough roads. You don’t want to head out in a car with poor alignment or an exhaust pipe that’s going to pop off the first time you hit a pothole.

Wink’s Body Shop offers complete exhaust services in Ithaca, including mufflers, exhaust pipes, manifolds, brackets, and hardware. If your exhaust is damaged, we’ll fix it and get you back on the road quickly for a fair price and a money-back guarantee. If a pothole knocks your wheels out of alignment in Tompkins County, get your wheel alignments in Ithaca at Wink’s Body Shop, where customer service and support are our number one priority.

Life will be returning to some semblance of normal over the next few months, which means we’ll all be back on the roads. But after months of sitting idle, your car may be performing very well. Any vehicle is going to be sluggish after weeks or even months being used for only the occasional trip for groceries.
