Houston TX Diagnostic Service

National Transmission will often get phone calls from people around the Houston area that are having one problem or another with their vehicle. Ranging from issues that are affecting their vehicle's drivability, electrical or engine problems, or a dashboard warning light that always seems to start flashing at the most inopportune time? Whatever the trouble might be, when experiencing a problem it is always best to have a qualified professional at an automotive repair shop such as National Transmission perform a diagnostic service to identify and correct the problem(s) before it causes serious damage to a valued car, truck, or SUV.

When National Transmission provides a diagnostic service to identify a problem with a client's vehicle, our expert team of technicians will perform a thorough test to pinpoint any type of problem that is affecting the vehicle's ability to drive as it should. To get started, use our online appointment system to schedule an inspection. Once at our shop, our team will complete a diagnostic service and inform you as to the specific source of your vehicle's problem. Our shop in Houston can fix the majority of automobiles found on the roads of Houston, including Honda, Mitsubishi, Toyota, Lexus, Hyundai, Acura, Kia, and more.

Nothing can be more concerning than driving down the road to find a warning light displayed on the dashboard. More times than not, this type of problem always seems to occur at the wrong time. But then again, is there ever a right time for a car problem? No! When such a problem occurs, aside from the frustration, there is always the concern about being able to drive the car, truck, or SUV safely. It is important to know that when these types of errors are ignored, serious issues with a vehicle's performance may occur, an emission problem may result, or even a complete engine failure. When left unaddressed, even a simple diagnostic warning sign can lead to serious problems that may cost a lot of money to fix. When contacted by someone with such a warning sign, National Transmission stresses not to drive the vehicle until the exact warning sign is identified correctly, so as to not cause damage or drive a vehicle that is not safe to do so.

The vehicles driving on the roads of the Houston area today rely on advanced computerized systems that are designed to continually monitor the statuses of the numerous systems that keep a vehicle operating as it should. When a system begins to malfunction or is not operating as it was intended to, the driver will receive an alert to indicate that service or maintenance is needed. Often times this will happen without providing a clear reason as to why. One perfect example would be the failure of the oxygen sensor, indicating a possible leak in the intake or exhaust system on the vehicle. In such a scenario, the check engine light may appear on the dashboard. For the very reason that so many problems could occur with the engine in a car, truck, or SUV, wide-ranging alerts are employed by computerized systems to maintain simplicity. To pinpoint the exact problem causing the alert, the skilled team of mechanics at our Houston auto diagnostic shop will complete a physical inspection and advanced diagnostic tests. Once the problem is identified, our service adviser will provide a detailed description of what is required to get the vehicle back safely on the roads of the Houston area.

National Transmission uses industry-leading auto diagnostics tools & equipment to communicate with the advanced computerized systems found in the majority of vehicles that are driving around Houston. Automotive technology is continually changing, and as such, our team attends ongoing training, both online and by attending various seminars and classes offered by manufacturers and auto industry experts. Our shop's clients benefit from this dedication to ongoing education in that our team can quickly diagnose a problem, and get the required service or repair completed.

What distinguishes National Transmission from other auto diagnostic places in National Transmission is the fact that our shop does not lead vehicle owners to think diagnostics can be as simple as using a computer terminal to identify and replace a part. Modern vehicles are complex pieces of machinery, and only trained technicians with the ability to pinpoint and identify problems should be trusted when a proper diagnosis is required. National Transmission promises our clients that any recommendations for the replacement of a part(s) or service will not be done until we are certain of the exact cause of the problem.
