Air Conditioning
Union Motor Co. offers a full air conditioning service and repair to keep you cool when you’re driving. As well as ensuring you remain comfortable and don’t overheat, air conditioning is also critical to regulate the temperature inside your vehicle so that your windscreen doesn’t mist up.
Air conditioning systems can degrade over time – particularly if it isn’t used regularly during winter - so if you notice it isn’t cooling you down on a hot day as quickly as it used to, then it is possible the system needs a re-gas or the ventilation system needs to be unclogged. Union Motor Co. runs a full system check to test whether gas is escaping and take necessary steps to replace the gas or conduct a full repair.
Clutches
Clutch repair and diagnostic is available with Union Motor Co. If you have noticed your clutch pedal feeling spongy or it vibrates, you hear an unusual noise when you press the pedal, it is difficult to change gear or you feel the clutch slipping, then it might be time to replace your clutch.
Union Motor Co. can offer a full clutch replacement or identify a simpler issue that can be rectified with prompt repairs.
Brakes
Brake pads are subject to significant stress on a vehicle and while they may be durable, they will degrade over time. As such, it is likely your vehicle will need a brake pad change during ownership if you complete a significant amount of mileage.
If you begin to hear a grinding sound or feel vibrations while braking, it could be a sign that your brake pads are wearing, so contact Union Motor Co. for a brake pad replacement to ensure your brakes remain sharp and responsive.
Suspension & Steering
A vehicle’s suspension and shock absorbers are specifically designed to withstand the toughest forces being exerted by the ruts and bumps in the road.
It therefore stands to reason that suspension and shock absorbers will wear over time, so if you notice a vibration through the steering wheel, you spot oil seeping from your shock absorbers or the handling of your vehicle changes, allow Union Motor Co. to carry out a full assessment. We can advise on the best course of action to ensure the safety of yourself and your passengers.
Batteries & Alternators
From headlights to the stereo to the engine itself, car batteries serve an important purpose as the supplier to the electrical components in a vehicle.
If your car doesn’t start, you might have a flat battery. If that’s the case, a recharge using either jump leads attached to another car battery or a jump-starter pack might be enough to get you on your way. If not, a new battery might be necessary. Using our state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment, Union Motor Co. can identify electrical faults quickly and easily before advising you on whether you need further maintenance.
Engine Diagnostics
Union Motor Co. invests in the latest in diagnostic equipment designed to quickly and accurately identify any issues you may be having with your vehicle.
By using diagnostic equipment, our expert trained technicians can best advise you on the next steps to take to ensure you can get back on the road promptly.
Wheel Alignment
Union Motor Co. uses the state-of-the-art laser technology to ensure your vehicle has precise wheel alignment.
Aligned wheels help improve efficiency, driving grip and prolongs the lifespan of your tyres. It’s a simple adjustment that could save you significant time and money down the line.
Exhaust & Emissions
An exhaust system has the responsibility to carry gases away from the engine without interacting with the driver or passengers, as well as optimise the vehicle’s power and fuel consumption.
A faulty exhaust system can therefore cause a rise in fuel consumption, create an audible rattle or affect the vehicle’s emissions output, putting it at risk of MOT failure.
If you’ve noticed your car emits a louder noise than usual or your fuel consumption has increased, contact Union Motor Co. for an assessment.
From MOTs to body work, our one-stop service can help.
