Overall

Youngstedts needs a lesson on service recovery methods

I was in need of a tire repair when I came across this establishment. The facility is clean, offers reasonable prices; has fresh coffee, magazines, a television, and plenty of informational posters on their walls. However, the service was extremely poor. I was given a time frame of ��30 minutes or less�� and ended up waiting in their lounge for an hour. I was not given any sort of an updated time frame, nor did I receive an apology for the delay by the unfriendly clerk who finished the transaction. I will not return.

Engine and Exhaust System

Engine Repair
Restricted airflow makes your engine work harder and causes your vehicle to lose horsepower. During our tune-up, we can ensure optimal performance of these parts and more. Please adhere to your owner’s manual for recommended service intervals.
Oil Change
Youngstedt Companies is passionate about giving back to the community. We believe that being an active member of the communities we serve allows us to enrich the well-being of our loyal customers, employees and the neighborhoods we work and live in. We sponsor local athletic teams; as well as support school groups; church events and other community events. Each January, we are proud to support the local chapter of ALS by offering an oil change promotion where all of the proceeds are donated directly to ALS. We are also proud sponsors of the North American Pond Hockey Championship charity event on Lake Minnetonka.
Engine Tune-Up
In the past, engine tune-ups were much more time consuming because they required a motorist to check a variety of parts. Engine tune-ups formerly included checking the distributor, cap, rotor, ignition contact points, condensers, carburetors, and more. Today, these items are generally no longer included in engine tune-ups because a vehicle’s electronic control unit controls the engine timing.

Transmission and Drivetrain

Transmission Service
A faulty transmission can negatively affect your vehicle’s performance. Symptoms of an impending transmission service include grinding gears, difficulty shifting, slipping out of gear, bucking, and hesitation. Even if your transmission is in neutral, excessive noise is a sign of transmission problems.
Transmission Repair
Depending on the year, make, and model of your vehicle the Transmission Fluid may need to be replaced at this Service Interval. Vehicle Manufacturers are installing longer life Transmission Fluids and some systems are sealed and do not have a dipstick any more to inspect the fluid level. Every 30,000 miles we thoroughly check for Transmission Fluid leaks, condition of fluid, and the level of the Transmission Fluid. If a leak develops and the level becomes low the fluid will begin to burn and can cause internal bearing failure. Over time even extended life Transmission Fluid will become discolored and loose some of its protective capabilities and should be replaced. Periodic inspection of the Transmission Fluid level and condition is vital to maintaining your vehicle. If the Transmission Fluid is not properly maintained it will become discolored and can cause major internal Transmission failure. A Transmission Repair or Replacement can cost several thousand dollars and vehicle could be out of service for an extended period of time. Proper Preventative Maintenance of the Transmission fluid will save you time and the high price of a major Transmission Repair.

Steering and Suspension

Suspension Service/Repair
Have you hit a pothole lately? Potholes can cause damage to steering and suspension, which will reduce the stability of the vehicle and control of the driver. Make sure you are driving the safest possible vehicle, and allow us to repair your suspension system if you experiencing any shakiness, stuff steering, uneven tire wear, etc.
Steering Service/Repair
Suspension system components, like coil springs and shock absorbers, help to dampen the impact of this road force. While the individual components comprising each suspension system may vary, all suspension system components will weaken over time through stress applied during normal driving conditions. Similarly, off-road driving and erratic driving can wear down suspension components more quickly. Regardless of your driving preferences, we have the necessary equipment to identify and correct any issue plaguing your steering and suspension system. Our staff is trained to inspect the steering and suspension components in order to determine whether your service will entail a minor adjustment or a replacement.

Tire Rotation
Tire rotation is essential in prolonging the life of your tires. Our tire rotation service can help prevent massive tread differentiation between tires, encourage better performance, and save you money on gas mileage!
Tire Repair
It is also important to note that the longer a driver uses a flat tire, the more unlikely it becomes that a tire repair service can be performed. This is because riding on a flat tire for too long can cause irrevocable damage to the tire. As the tire deflates, the wheel will come into closer contact with the ground, potentially damaging the rim. It is important to understand that tire repair is time sensitive. The sooner you are able to bring a lightly to moderately damaged tire in for repair, the more likely it is that the tire can be saved.
Wheel Alignment
Tire Service
We want to be your one stop shop when it comes to wheels and tires. We offer custom wheels for those that want a new look and tires for those that need a replacement. All of our products are priced competitively and our team of sales professionals is dedicated to giving you superior customer service. They will give you all of the information you need so you will not feel confused when you make your selection.
Tire Inspection
During the 30,000 Mile Service Interval we thoroughly inspect the chassis and suspension for irregular wear and loose components. Most vehicles are driven 15,000 miles per year on average so this is an important safety check that is performed once a year. Preventative Maintenance saves you money because potential issues are caught early and keeps repairs at a minimum.Tire Inspection, Rotation, and Inflation – The roads in the Minneapolis, MN area sometimes are not always in the best condition. Proper Tire inflation is vital for optimal handling and safety. During each Service Interval our Mechanics will inspect your tires to ensure proper placement for the best performance and longevity of your tires. Tire rotations are performed periodically so that all four tires wear evenly. If you do not rotate your tires they will wear unevenly and will require replacement more frequently. Proper inflation of your tires is essential for proper wear and performance. Properly inflated tires also improve fuel mileage.
Tire Balancing
Our staff is here to help with all your balancing needs. During this process, our experts will mount your wheel on the computerized wheel balancing machine and spin it. Acting upon the information we receive from our computerized wheel balancing equipment, our service staff will apply additional weight to the indicated areas in order to alleviate vibrations and help the assembly roll more smoothly. With your tires and wheels properly balanced, you can enjoy an overall smoother ride, greater control, and longer lasting tires. You should rotate your tires to prevent uneven tread wear. Uneven tread commonly occurs because most vehicles do not distribute weight evenly between the front and rear tires. In general, front tires tend to deteriorate more quickly than rear tires due to their location and the weight of a vehicle’s engine. By rotating your tires, you’ll distribute the wear more evenly, and you won’t need to replace your tires as frequently.

Brake Service
Brake Fluid Service
Brake Repair
When you press down on the brake pedal, the master cylinder pressurizes a system of hydraulic brake lines leading to each of the vehicle’s wheels, where brake pads or shoes press against a disc or drum and create the necessary friction needed to slow the vehicle to a complete stop. Over time, this friction and heat has the potential to wear down the brake shoes, brake pads, calipers, brake rotors, and other braking components. While the components comprising each brake system may vary, the warning signs for impending brake repairs are the same.

Exterior/Interior

Body/Collision Repair
Auto body, collision repair, and paint services are designed for motorists who need assistance after a vehicle receives damage from an accident or is recovered from a theft. After a collision, the resulting vehicular damage can be seen in the form of dents and scratches on the vehicle’s body and blemishes in its paint. In addition, a vehicle’s wires may need to be fixed, or its parts may need to be replaced after a theft or accident occurs.
Body Painting
Things that can negatively impact the life of your transmission include extreme driving habits, and excessive loads or heavy towing habits. Because of the necessary pressure and force provided by transmission fluid in automatic transmissions, old, dirty, and unchanged transmission fluid can cause performance issues.
