Tune-Ups

Tune-ups are recommended at certain intervals in order to receive the highest possible performance and fuel efficiency from your vehicle. At Simard Automotive in Fairbanks, Alaska, our certified mechanics perform tune-ups on all makes and models of vehicles. The services performed during a tune-up will depend on the needs of your vehicle. We will determine exactly what your vehicle needs to run in top working condition. We recommend following your vehicle’s manufacturer recommendations for how often to get a tune-up.
