Surviving the Storm of Auto Trouble – Chabill’s Tire & Auto Service
Keeping Auto Repair from Feeling Like a Hurricane
Due to its location not too far inland from the Gulf, Prairieville, Louisiana, is particularly vulnerable to hurricanes. Prior storms have caused extensive tree damage and long-lasting power outages. When your vehicle has problems, you may feel as if you are in the middle of a “perfect storm” where multiple issues occur at once. Maybe your tires are terrible at the same time your battery is balking and your transmission is troubled. Instead of allowing a vehicular hurricane to ruin your ability to be present in your daily life, bring your car to Chabill’s Tire & Auto Service. We’re very easy to find at 13485 Highway 73 just off Interstate 10. Our company has been around since 1968, so we’ve seen our share of tropical weather systems and Category 5 auto ailments. We’re well prepared to help you–and your car–survive the storm.
Safe Travels, Solid Service and Repairs
Whether you’re on your daily drive to work or evacuating your family due to an approaching hurricane, you want to ensure that you’re traveling safely. Chabill’s Tire & Auto Repair can help you keep an eye on potential risks. Routine services such as windshield wiper and brake system inspections keep your car at the ready. Should your vehicle develop a problem that might compromise safety, we will correct that before sending you back out onto the road. Tires, the safety net between your auto and the pavement, are critically important. We sell new tires (Goodyear, BFGoodrich, Uniroyal, Michelin), and we also offer all tire-related services.
Tip: If you feel wobbling or vibrating as you drive, particularly when applying brakes, you could possibly have warped rotors. Rotors are the metal discs sitting to the inside of the wheels. Brake pads make contact with these, stopping the car. The rotors should be smooth and evenly thick.

We look forward to proving to you that we have your vehicle’s–and your–best interest at heart.
Car And Truck Brakes
Regular maintenance for your vehicle doesn’t just include oil changes and air filter replacements. Inspecting and maintaining all of the components on your car and truck is key for preventing unwanted breakdowns or premature failure of components like suspension and brakes. Chabill’s Tire and Auto Service provides comprehensive vehicle maintenance and inspections, so you can be confident that your vehicle is running in perfect condition. Having your car’s brakes checked on a regular basis is a great way to prevent brake failure that could leave you stranded or prevent you from stopping your vehicle on time. We provide full brake repairs and maintenance services at Chabill’s, including rotor replacements, brake pad and drum replacements, and brake line repairs and replacements.
Vehicular A/C Repairs
Running errands in the summer heat without air conditioning in your car or truck can make for an unpleasant experience. Automotive A/C is something that many people take for granted until it’s not working at all, and they often overlook their A/C system when it comes to regular maintenance. The technicians at Chabill’s Tire and Auto Service can provide full vehicle air conditioning maintenance and repairs, including A/C recharges, system diagnostics and replacement of air conditioning components like compressors and condensers. If your car’s air conditioning system is not working as it should or if you want to ensure it’s up to the task for the upcoming summer heat, visit us at Chabill’s. We’ll make sure your fluid levels are correct, pressures are within the manufacturer’s specifications and all drive belts are tensioned appropriately so that there are no unwanted summertime surprises.
Shocks And Struts
Suspension components like shocks and struts not only affect the comfort of your drive, but they also help with vehicle handling. You may be able to recognize worn suspension by increasing rattling and clunky noises originating from the underside of your car. If these symptoms are left untreated, these sounds eventually turn into an uncomfortable ride and begin to affect the stability of your vehicle. When your suspension system starts to make unwanted noises, it’s best to tackle the problem early. Making minor repairs or replacements of worn components quickly can help prevent catastrophic failures down the line. This approach to vehicle maintenance and repair helps save you time and money in the long run.
Alignment
The alignment of your tires with one another and with your vehicle’s frame helps keep you driving in a straight line on the road. While you may think that a little steering correction is all it takes, you would be wrong. Wheel misalignment (although seemingly a small issue) can cause a lot of unnecessary wear on your vehicle’s components, especially on your tires. When your wheels are misaligned, the effect is similar to dragging your wheel sideways ever so slightly. When you add the total amount of miles you drag your tires into the equation, it amounts to a lot of wear. Chabill’s Tire and Auto Service has the high-tech equipment that it takes to check and adjust your vehicle alignment. We take the time and care it requires to get your alignment just right, so you don’t experience any issues down the road.
Maintenance Flushes For Your Vehicle
Chabill’s comprehensive maintenance services include vehicle maintenance flushes for cars and trucks. Monitoring and replacing the fluids in your car’s driveline components is a great way to prevent unwanted breakdowns and potentially costly repairs to expensive components in the future. Chabill’s technicians can perform vehicle maintenance flushes according to your vehicle maintenance schedule to ensure that fluids in your transmission, engine and air conditioning system are able to handle the heat and abuse to which they are exposed. Having fresh fluids helps prevent unwanted wear and keeps your vehicle’s systems operating properly.
