Please stay safe, when in doubt stop anyway.

School buses hit the road again on Monday, August 24! 🚌️ Please be extra cautious during your morning and afternoon commutes. Drivers in BOTH directions must stop when a school bus is loading or unloading passengers. Look for the flashing lights and stop signs! Let’s work together to ensure a safe and smooth ride for every child this school year! 💙 💛

🚗 Some Repairs Go Far Beyond "Replacing a Part."

This is what it takes to replace an evaporator core on certain vehicles.
To get to the failed component, the entire dashboard has to be removed—including trim panels, wiring harnesses, steering column components, HVAC housing, and more. It's a job that requires patience, precision, and attention to every detail to ensure everything goes back together exactly as it left the factory.

At Bear & Son Automotive, we don't cut corners. We take the time to do the job right, test everything thoroughly, and make sure your vehicle leaves our shop performing like it should.

✅ A/C Evaporator Core Replacement
✅ HVAC Diagnostics & Repair
✅ Factory-Level Attention to Detail
✅ Honest, Quality Service

When you trust us with your vehicle, you're trusting a team that isn't afraid to tackle the jobs others avoid.
