We work with CV axles, CV joints, and driveshafts. If you're experiencing problems and need assistance, give our team a call.
CV Axles & Joints: Constant velocity joints connect the drive shafts to the transmission and the wheels. They're responsible for transferring torque from the transmission to your wheels and play an important role in handling. CV joints are protected by a boot. As long as the boot remains intact, the CV joint can last a very long time. However, when the boot is damaged, you may experience problems from contaminants entering and grease escaping. This can lead to corrosion and ultimately failure.
If you hear clicking when turning, it's a sign you may have a problem with your CV joint. Clunking and shuddering are other signs.
Driveshaft: The drive shaft is attached the CV axles and transmits torque to the wheels. It also helpts rotate the wheels. If your driveshaft is damaged, you'll notice it in your vehicle's drivability. A damaged driveshaft can cause your vehicle to shake and vibrate. These vibrations will originate from underneath your vehicle and can cause other drivetrain parts to wear prematurely. If you hear rattles, clunks, and squeaks, it can also be a sign of a driveshaft problem. If you can't turn correctly or you feel shuddering, these are other signs that you should have your driveshaft checked.
An oil change is a regular part of any vehicle's factory maintenance schedule. Fresh oil protects the engine and keeps parts lubricated so they continue to work together as designed. Similarly, other automotive fluids play important roles with their designated systems.
Motor oil, transmission fluid, brake fluid, and other lubricants keep operating temperatures cool and prevent metal components from damaging one-another. They're essential to the life of your vehicle.
Every fluid in your vehicle plays an important role:
Not every fluid requires a change as frequently as others, and if you own a maintenance-free battery, you shouldn't need to check battery fluid levels. Review your manufacturer's manual for recommended oil change intervals and important information about the other automotive fluids in your vehicle.
At Kristyak's Service & Towing, our service technicians can look up your vehicle make and model to see if there are any special requirements.

At some point, most motorists will need a wheel alignment to fix the direction that their tires and wheels point. You can throw a vehicle out of alignment by hitting pot holes and curb sides, or from collisions. Noticeable alignment problems include irregular tire wear and tracking problems that cause a vehicle to pull you toward the left or right of the road while you're trying to keep it straight.
We perform both two-wheel and four-wheel alignments depending on what make and model vehicle you drive.
Learn more about wheel alignments.
When your vehicle bounces or pulls to the left or right while you're driving straight, it could be a sign that you need a steering and suspension repair. Service might be as simple as a wheel alignment or shock replacement. Rough rides, nose dives, and unintentional drifting are no fun, so contact Kristyak's Service & Towing to restore vehicle performance.
We perform the following services that help with steering and suspension problems:
