This past Saturday, our Christian Brothers Automotive – Jamestown team had the privilege of participating in National Service Day, partnering with Love Your Neighbor in Hudsonville to provide oil changes and vehicle inspections for members of our community.

We believe taking care of people goes far beyond taking care of their cars. It's about lending a helping hand, building relationships, and making a difference right here in our own backyard.

A big thank you to Love Your Neighbor for the wonderful work they do and for allowing us to be part of something so meaningful.

Serving our neighbors is what it's all about!

Cold mornings are here… is your battery ready?

That battery that worked just fine all summer may start showing its age when the temperatures drop. Cold weather makes it harder for your battery to deliver the power your vehicle needs to start—and nobody wants to discover a weak battery on a chilly Michigan morning!

If your vehicle has been slow to start, your lights seem dim, or your battery is a few years old, now is a great time to have it checked.

We might be on False Fall or Second Summer but the real Fall and real Winter is just around the corner. A quick battery test now could save you from a “click, click… nothing” kind of morning later.

The days are getting shorter! 🍂
These foggy Michigan mornings have been giving us some pretty incredible sunrises lately. But between the morning fog and the days getting shorter, we’re also spending a lot more time driving in low-light conditions.
Fall is a great time to make sure your vehicle is ready to help you see—and be seen.
💡 Check headlights & taillights
🚦 Make sure brake lights & turn signals are working
🌧️ Inspect your wipers
🛞 Check tire tread & pressure
Enjoy those beautiful fall sunrises—but make sure your vehicle is ready for the drive, too! 🍂

🍂 Fall is in the air… and your tire pressure might be dropping! 🛞
As those cooler Michigan mornings roll in, so can lower tire pressure. Keeping your tires properly inflated helps with handling, tire wear, and fuel efficiency—so it’s a good time to give them a quick check.

Recently, after receiving a vehicle to donate, CBA Ocotillo gave their time, talent and expertise to ensure it was safe and reliable on the road. Once it was ready, they began praying about who should receive it. As they sought God’s direction, one organization kept coming to mind: Teen Challenge Home of Hope.

When the team reached out to the home’s director, they discovered one of the ministry’s staff members, Jewells, had been faithfully praying for reliable transportation. A graduate of Home of Hope herself, Jewells chose to remain after completing the program, first serving as an intern before joining the staff. Today, she dedicates her life to serving the women and children who find refuge and healing through the ministry.

The director shared that she and Jewells had been praying specifically for a vehicle and believed God had already promised to provide one. The call from the Ocotillo team was the answer they had been waiting for.

In remembrance of 9/11, we honor the selfless heroes who ran toward danger to help their neighbors. Their courage reminds us of the call to love our neighbor as ourselves. Today, let’s honor the memory of those we lost by living out that same spirit of service, lifting one another up, and being a light in our communities. We are grateful for every act of kindness that helps heal our world.

The easiest way to save fuel doesn't require any tools—just a lighter foot on the gas pedal.

✔ Accelerate smoothly
✔ Leave extra space between vehicles
✔ Coast to stoplights when it's safe

Your car—and your wallet—will thank you.

🔆Summer Car Tip🔆

Did you know your tire pressure can change by about 1 PSI for every 10°F change in temperature?

Hot summer days can cause tire pressure to rise, while cooler mornings can make it drop. Driving with tires that are over- or under-inflated can lead to uneven wear, reduced fuel economy, and less predictable handling.

🚗 Our Tip: Check your tire pressure at least once a month—preferably before you've driven the car, when the tires are cold.

It's a simple 5-minute check that can help your tires last longer and keep you safer on the road.

Have questions about your tires or preparing your vehicle for summer travel? Stop by—we're always happy to help!
