Diagnostics

We read and interpret hybrid and EV system data, and we follow the manufacturer’s safety procedures for high-voltage systems. If a repair calls for equipment or software only the manufacturer has, we will tell you.

A dealership alternative

HB Auto & AC is an independent repair shop and is not affiliated with any vehicle manufacturer. Routine maintenance here keeps your service history documented.

Questions we hear often

Do hybrids need oil changes?

Yes. A hybrid has a gasoline engine that needs oil service on the manufacturer's schedule.

Do electric vehicles need maintenance?

Less than a gasoline vehicle, but they still need brake, tire, suspension, cabin filter, coolant and A/C service.

Do you service hybrid A/C systems?

Yes. See our A/C service page.
