In the commercial snow removal business, downtime is a contract killer.

When a truck goes down during a snow event:

You pay operators to sit idle.

You scramble for emergency, premium-rate repairs.

You risk missed service-level agreements (SLAs) and lost properties.

A pre-season fleet audit isn’t an expense, it’s contract insurance.

At Fauerwerks Auto & Truck, our heavy-duty technicians walk through critical winter failure points before they become emergency roadside calls:

Hydraulic Integrity: Contaminated fluid and worn seal kits freeze and crack under sub-zero pressure.

Electrical Systems: Alternators and dual-battery setups undergo extreme draw from auxiliary lighting and plow pumps. We stress-test them under simulated full load.

Chassis & Suspension: Salt, heavy ballast, and front-axle plow weight accelerate component wear. We check leaf springs, ball joints, and tie-rod ends.

Spreader & Augers: Gearbox fluid checks, chain tensioning, and motor amp-draw diagnostics.

Ensure your fleet is 100% operational before the dispatch orders begin.

That morning chill in the air isn’t just signaling coat weather. It’s the clock ticking on your winter revenue. ❄️⏱️

The worst time to discover a sluggish hydraulic ram, a dying battery, or a frayed wiring harness is at 2:00 AM during the season’s first three-inch drop. When the blizzard hits, your clients don't want excuses, they want clear lots.
Don’t let your first push be your diagnostic test.

Bring your trucks, plows, and spreaders by Fauerwerks Auto & Truck for a comprehensive pre-season inspection. We pinpoint the wear and tear now so your fleet stays on the road when the storm rolls in.

🔧 Fluid flushes & pressure checks

⚡ Charging & starting system testing

🛠️ Cutting edge, mount, & structural inspections

Appointments fill up fast once the forecast turns white. Get ahead of the rush.

Meet the Man, the Myth, the Legend: Reintroducing John! 🛠️🍻

It’s time to spotlight the owner and driving force behind Fauerwerks Auto & Truck: John!

John built this shop from the ground up on grit, know-how, and a genuine passion for keeping serious machinery moving. Whether he's prepping heavy snow equipment for the worst winter weather or dialing in high-performance platforms in the bay, John sets the tone for the hard work and standard of care our entire team brings to the table every single day.

Meet the Team Again! Let's Introduce Ralph! 🔧

Today, we’re shining the spotlight on a familiar face around the shop: Ralph!

Ralph has been with the Fauerwerks crew for a year and a half. Before bringing his skills and work ethic to our bays, he spent his days keeping places safe as a security officer. Whether he's diving under a hood or keeping things running smoothly, he's a vital part of what keeps our community on the road.

Get to know Ralph:

Pets: Proud owner of two cats 🐱

Favorite to Work On: Subaru 🚙

Least Favorite Brand: Volvo (we won't hold it against him!)

Dream Car: 1969 Pontiac GTO Judge 🏁

Meet the Team: Ben!🛠️

It’s time to shine the spotlight on the newest addition to the shop floor: our apprentice, Ben!

Currently balancing high school while getting his feet wet in the automotive world, Ben joined the Fauerwerks crew two months ago. He’s taking in everything the shop has to throw at him—which means he hasn’t picked a favorite brand or repair job just yet, but he’s eager to learn it all.

Get to know Ben:

Pets:None right now, but firmly on Team Dog 🐶
Dream Ride: A massive Hennessey Ford VelociRaptor 6x6 🛻💨
Wildest Story: Surviving a brutal e-bike crash that left him with a broken elbow, a broken hand, a concussion, and enough road rash to last a lifetime (safe to say he's tough as nails!).

We’re pumped to have Ben learning the ropes with us and building his skills every day. Next time you stop by Fauerwerks Auto & Truck, be sure to give him a wave!
