Expert Hummer Maintenance & Service in Joliet, IL from AACCEL Emissions & Auto Repair

Is it harder to find parts for an H1 than an H2 or H3?

Generally yes. The H1 was built by AM General and shares more with its military Humvee origins, so some parts are more specialized and less common. The H2 and H3 were built on GM platforms and share components with other GM trucks and SUVs, which usually makes their parts easier to source. The trustworthy technicians at AACCEL Emissions & Auto Repair know these differences and can tell you honestly what to expect for your specific model.

Can an independent shop like yours really handle a HUMMER's unique needs?

Yes. Our technicians have specific experience with the specialized systems that set these vehicles apart from a typical truck or SUV, so your HUMMER is not just another vehicle on the lift. You get personalized, knowledgeable care without the dealership runaround. Visit AACCEL Emissions & Auto Repair in Joliet and see the difference for yourself.

Can I comfortably daily drive a HUMMER?

You can, as long as you go in with the right expectations and keep it well maintained. A HUMMER's size makes for tight parking and wide turns, and its weight and thirst mean higher running costs than a normal daily driver, but many owners drive theirs every day without trouble. The key is staying ahead of wear so the everyday miles do not catch up with you. The expert team at AACCEL Emissions & Auto Repair can keep your HUMMER road-ready for daily use.

Uneven tire wear, the auto pulling to one side or a steering wheel that is off-center are signs for Joliet motorists that their wheels may be out of alignment.  When doing an alignment inspection, the service advisor will check your tires for uneven wear as well as suspension and steering parts for signs of wear or damage. He’ll also compare your current alignment with the auto manufacturer’s settings. Your vehicle owner’s manual will have a recommendation for when to check alignment. Of course, this recommendation is based on normal driving. If you have been in collision, hit a curb/pothole, frequently drive off-road around Joliet, or notice any symptoms of misalignment, have your AACCEL EMISSIONS & LUBE service specialist carry out a critical alignment check.

When properly aligned, all of your wheels are pointed in the same direction. Your vehicle will track true and handle the way it is designed. Joliet motorists often associate our wheels being “knocked” out of alignment with an event like a major collision, hitting a pothole, curb or some other object. While these can certainly take your wheels out of alignment, the bumps and bounces of everyday driving take their toll on wheel alignment as well. Your automobile can lose alignment over time with just normal driving. When your wheels are out of alignment, the team of automotive professionals at AACCEL EMISSIONS & LUBE in Joliet can return your wheels to the factory settings. Most owners’ manuals suggest a diagnostic examination every year or two.

The timing belt rotates the cam shafts which open and close the valves that allow air, fuel, and exhaust to flow through the engine as it powers your auto. An old timing belt can lose a “tooth” in the belt allowing it to slip. The engine could stop or misfire. Timing belt slip – or a broken timing belt – can be disastrous on some engines. In “interference” engines, open valves can get in the way of the piston when the timing belt breaks or slips. When that happens one or more valves can be bent requiring pricey engine repairs. It is critical for Joliet auto owners to replace their timing belts as recommended in their owner’s manual to avoid unnecessary breakdowns. Ask the team of professionals at AACCEL EMISSIONS & LUBE in Joliet if it’s time for your timing belt to be replaced.
