Graham Auto Repair

  At Graham Auto Repair weekends are the time to relax. We know how hard you work during the week, especially in the automotive industry. Our team puts a ton of energy into everything they do here! We want our team to know they aren't going to get an unexpected phone call on the weekend. You know the call: asking you to give up your weekend to cover someone's shift. Why are we closed on the weekend? We have heard this question a few times. We understand it would be convenient for our customers if we were open every day. But we value our team as much as we value our customers. We know everyone needs time over the weekend to rejuvenate. Including you! Instead we have other convenient options for our customers. We have courtesy pick-up and drop-off for our local customers. We have courtesy loaner cars that can be scheduled in advance. We also have a locked key-box for after-hours. Our customers can drop off their vehicles early in the morning before work, or in the even ... read more

Have you tried the pizza from Sirius Wood Fired Pizza?? If not, you are missing out! Today our team was spoiled with delicious pizza from a local Food Truck, Sirius Wood Fired Pizza! How did this happen? Earlier this week, the Food Truck Owner came by our shop with an emergency situation! His truck, the key to keeping his business mobile, had a Ball Joint concern. We got his truck into our shop that same day and our Technician did his best to help press the ball joint back into the knuckle as quickly as possible. While we weren't able to complete the job 100% it was just enough to get Chuck and his Food Truck back on the road, selling pizza!   Check out the photo above to see a picture of Chuck in his Food Truck, holding one of the delicious pizzas that he served us today! Do you see what's behind him?? A wood stove! When they say th ... read more

Thanksgiving is coming up this week, and Christmas is right around the corner! A lot more people are planning to travel this year than last year. Keeping you and your family safe while driving is one of our top priorities! So today we want to give you a few safety tips before you hit the road.    Traveling with your family for the holidays can feel like a burden --- especially when the weather is dark or dreary. If you can find ways to make it fun, it will add to the holiday spirit! If you have kids, you can play driving games, listen to music, or listen to a book on CD. If you can use Bluetooth in your car, you can also listen to a Podcast. Be sure to bring things to entertain your youngest passengers. You can bring books, toys, or movies for children who may get bored. We all want to avoid the dreaded question, "Are we there yet?"
