Signs Your Car Needs Some Care
Not sure if it’s a quick DIY fix or time for a mechanic? Book an inspection if you notice any of these:
- A check engine, brake or battery warning light
- Squealing, grinding, knocking or clunking noises
- Fluid spots under the car: oil, coolant or transmission fluid
- The car pulls, vibrates or the steering feels loose
- Rough shifting, hard starts or loss of power
- Warm air from the AC or a burning smell
- Worse fuel economy than usual

More ways we can help
Beyond the services above, our Downtown State SLC technicians handle the everyday work that keeps a vehicle reliable:
- Batteries, belts and hoses: tested and replaced before Utah’s cold mornings and hot summers find the weak spot.
- Fluid services: coolant, brake, power steering and differential fluid changed on your manufacturer’s schedule.
- Same-day work: oil changes, brake jobs, diagnostics and alignments are often done the same day. Call ahead to check availability.
How Often Should You Get Auto Maintenance?
Most vehicles benefit from routine maintenance every 5,000–7,500 miles, depending on your manufacturer and how you drive. Stop-and-go traffic on State Street and 1300 South, short trips, towing and Utah’s hot, dry summers and cold winters all count as hard use. Follow your owner’s manual, and use this as a guide for the most common services:
| Service | Typical interval |
|---|---|
| Oil change | 3,000–7,500 miles depending on oil type |
| Tire rotation | Every 5,000–8,000 miles |
| Brake inspection | Every 10,000–15,000 miles or once a year |
| Alignment check | Yearly and with new tires |
| Tune-up | Every 30,000 miles or three years |
| Transmission fluid | Every 30,000–60,000 miles |
| AC check | Every 1–2 years, before summer |
Stop by any time and we’ll put together a maintenance plan for your vehicle.

Hear from Our Customers
“Great new location of Master [Autotech]. I have gotten many car repairs done with them and had great service. I really recommend Jessi. He is the best mechanic in Salt Lake! He’s very experienced and has been honest and reliable. I first saw him a few years ago when I needed a second opinion on a repair. Another mechanic shop had quoted a very costly, extensive repair. Jessi was able to find the real problem and repair at a fraction of the cost, so I keep going back with both of my vehicles. Highly recommend!”
Alina Austin
“Have been here a few times before and will definitely come back. The team is very quick and honest about the work that is done. John specifically was great in taking care of my family and I while also getting us out quick!”
Antonella Tapia
“John always goes above and beyond to make sure my vehicle is safe. from oil changes to alignments, he always gets it done right the first time 10/10”
