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 Owensboro 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 R.C. Bratcher, Inc?  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?...

shifter on vehicle

fleet of vehicles

At R.C. Bratcher, Inc in Owensboro, KY, we service all types of fleet vehicles and see many of the same problems come through the door again and again. Here are some easy early warning signs from our team here at R.C. Bratcher, Inc, that signal your fleet vehicles are in need of maintenance soon. 

Turbo

Most commercial diesel engines these days are turbocharged. Turbos dramatically increase power and efficiency, particularly on diesel engines, which makes them a must-have item on engines that rely heavily on both. However, sometimes issues arise in turbo systems; at R.C. Bratcher, Inc in Owensboro, we can fix that.

headlight of car

Foggy headlights are a problem that has arisen in the past couple of decades, as we have moved away from glass sealed beam bulbs and into an era of plastic lenses with bulbs inside. While modern headlights are superior to the sealed beam headlights of years ago, they do tend to fog up after years of use. It’s a good trade for far better illumination and easier replacement, but an issue nonetheless. Hours and hours of heat, sunlight, and age eventually cause them to cloud up, which can reduce visibility at night in addition to worsening the appearance of your car, truck, or SUV. From R.C. Bratcher, Inc in Owensboro, KY, here are some tips on taking care of your foggy or cloudy headlight issue.

Transmission work is a world of precision and attention to detail. Transmission specialists, like the technicians at R.C. Bratcher, Inc in Owensboro, KY, chose to specialize in transmission work partly because they have a knack for both. It’s just one of the things that make us the best in the business.

Small transmission problems can become big ones if not tended to in a timely manner. Your car, truck, or SUV has been shifting weird for a while now - does that mean it’s too late to do anything about it? R.C. Bratcher, Inc in Owensboro, KY has the answer.

Part of maintaining your vehicle is keeping its safety devices in good working order, especially when there are kids in the car. Seat belts, window locks, and airbag sensors work together to keep children safe in an automobile. Though safety components are generally very reliable, they do occasionally fail. R.C. Bratcher, Inc in Owensboro is here when they do; here are some things to watch out for.
