In the old days, when your headlight burned out you just replaced the entire thing with a new glass bulb. Modern headlights are plastic assemblies, with a bulb inserted through the back. What this means, is that the plastic lens that light shines through never gets replaced, and eventually will begin to oxidize and deteriorate due to time, weather, and heat from your bulb. Today you will learn when it’s time to fix or replace your headlight assemblies, what options you have in doing so, and what the benefits are.

Customer Review

★★★★★

John and his group are a breath of fresh air in a business that often disappoints the customer! I am so impressed with the level of service and professionalism that I received from Reeves Auto Repair. Everything was done in a timely fashion and costs were clearly stated up front. The work I had done on my Avalon carried some risks. John made sure I understood the possible down sides to doing the work, so there were absolutely no surprises. This is the way business should be done!! I wish more people had this same mindset. Well done!

There is a reason we check your brake fluid when you come in for a service check. Maintenance pays big dividends and we want to avoid high repair costs for our San Luis Obispo drivers. Did you know that brake service isn't just all about the brake pads, drums & rotors? That we have found low brake fluid to be the cause of a large percentage of brake issues here at Reeves Auto Repair? Seriously, brake fluid is an important part of your braking system and with your service intervals being less frequent on the newer vehicles 5,000-10,000 more miles this has become an issue! Why?...

At Reeves Auto Repair in San Luis Obispo, we know that keeping up with required maintenance schedules is the difference between a truck that lasts a few years and a truck that stays strong for decades.

Increasingly, technology in automobiles is becoming more sophisticated, and more and more systems have become reliant on electronic control modules to operate.
