At CSN Kustom Autobody, we believe in supporting our community and standing behind the people who make it so special.

One of our own, Matt, is fundraising for the Alberta Cancer Foundation in memory of Dale. This cause is incredibly meaningful, and we’re proud to support Matt as he honours Dale’s legacy while helping make a difference for others facing cancer.

If you’re able to contribute, any donation big or small will help support cancer research, patient care, and programs that provide hope to Albertans and their families.

Thank you Matt, for turning loss into something that will positively impact so many others.

What are 5 things ever car owner should keep in their vehicle?
1. First aid kit – Your kit should include items such as Band-Aids, ointment, gauze pads, scissors, and gloves. If you don’t want to think too hard about all the little odds and ends you may need, you can purchase pre-made kits online.
2. Jumper cables – A dead battery is a common and frustrating malfunction you might face. Jumpstarting a car is quite an easy and effective process in case that there is someone near you with a running engine who is willing to help, and you or your rescuer have jumper cables.
3. Extra clothing – If you get caught in a snowstorm or a rainstorm, it will be helpful to have an extra pair of dry clothes to change into.
4. Spare tire, jack, and lug wrench – Nothing is quite so frustrating as finding out that your spare tire has a flat or you forgot your jack in the garage. So, make sure you have a jack, inflated spare tire, and lug wrench in the car. If you have two of these items and not the third, it’s all useless. These three things go together so make sure you have them all.
5. Reflective Triangles – Any reflective item will be your nighttime safeguard. If you’ve pulled off to the shoulder for any prolonged amount of time, put these safety essentials around your vehicle. They offer enhanced visibility for ongoing traffic, lowering the possibility of you being hit by unsuspecting drivers while you’re waiting for the help you need.

Although brakes are clearly an essential part of any vehicle, they are capable of going thousands of kilometers without a peep, quietly working hard to bring us safely to a stop. Perhaps that's why it can be so easy to overlook them when going through our routine maintenance checklist.
So how can you tell when you need new brakes? Fortunately, old brakes don't stay silent for long and there are a few common warning signs you can learn to look and listen for.
In most cases, you shouldn't hear much of anything when you step on the pedal. If you hear a high-pitch, squeak or squeal when you step on the brakes, it might be time for a switch. If you don't replace your brakes after they've been squeaking for a while, you may hear a more ominous grinding or growling sound, like rough metal scraping against metal. If that happens, it usually means service is required immediately. If your car is pulling to one side or another, or you feel vibrations in the pedal, that also indicates the need for new brakes. Ignoring these signs can lead to reduced responsiveness of your car, meaning your vehicle can't stop within the same distance as it can during peak performance, increasing the risk for a collision.

Your insurance provider may suggest a shop to take your vehicle to, but they can’t make you go there for the repair to be compensated. When you have work done, it’s in your best interest to find a shop that has the knowledge and tools to do the repair right, not the one that will save the insurance company the most money. If you want quality work when you have collision damage repaired, choose CSN!

Labour Day in Canada is a celebration of honouring workers and recognizing their contributions to society. Historically, In the late 1860s and early 1870s, a labour movement began in Hamilton among printers who were petitioning their employer for a nine-hour workday, and spread to Toronto where the workers went on strike on March 25, 1872. A few weeks later, workers in Toronto held a huge demonstration in support of the strike. About 2,000 of them marched through the city, led by marching bands. The parade ended at Queen's Park, where the crowd had grown to roughly 10,000 people. While workers had been celebrating and parading on that day for years, it wasn't until 1894 that the Canadian government declared Labour Day an official holiday.

EVs are classified into different types based on how much they rely on electricity as a power source. Currently, there are three main classifications of EVs.
1. Battery electric vehicles (BEVs) are completely electric with rechargeable batteries. Also known as ‘plug-in’ EVs, BEVs use an external electrical charging outlet for power. They rely on electricity and do not have a gasoline engine, fuel tank, or tailpipe.
2. Plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), or extended-range electric vehicles, are partly powered by gasoline and partly by electricity. They have batteries that charge with an external outlet, and regenerative braking capabilities. PHEVs also use a gas engine to extend the vehicle’s range and to recharge the car battery.
3. Hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) are also powered by both gasoline and electricity. They differ from PHEVs by relying only on regenerative braking for battery charge. These EVs use their electric motor when driving, which is then supplemented with the gasoline engine as needed due to increases in load or speed.
