Transmission, drivetrain & auto repair services in Lake Forest Park, offered by Jamie's Transmission Service
Lake Forest Park is exactly what its name promises: winding roads under big trees between Bothell Way and the lake, with homes tucked up steep shared driveways. Jamie's Transmission Service offers battery replacement for Lake Forest Park drivers, done properly: the starting and charging system tested first, so you replace the part that actually failed instead of putting a new battery on top of a weak alternator.
The short, steep pulls off Bothell Way and the constant curves mean Lake Forest Park vehicles work their drivelines at low speed, where u-joint clunks and differential whines announce themselves clearly. Short trips like these never fully recharge a battery, which is why Lake Forest Park vehicles that mostly run errands die sooner than highway commuters. Slow cranking, dim headlights at idle or a battery light are the signs to have it tested before it strands you.
Long-owned family vehicles and all-wheel-drive wagons suit these wet, shaded roads, and their transfer cases and differentials benefit from the same fluid discipline as their transmissions. Many Lake Forest Park customers have the battery tested while the vehicle is in for a transmission, differential or brake job. It is a small add-on when the vehicle is already here, and it heads off the next breakdown.
If your Lake Forest Park vehicle sits for weeks at a time, ask us about a battery maintainer. It is a few dollars of prevention against a battery that will not hold a charge in the spring.
Wherever you are in Lake Forest Park, whether Sheridan Beach, Horizon View, Blue Ridge, Whispering Willows or elsewhere in the north end of Lake Washington, we can help with battery replacement. Lake Forest Park is about 35 minutes from the shop straight down SR-522, an easy one-highway trip.
