Windshield Wipers Repair and Replacement in Stockton, CA

Windshield wipers may seem like a minor item, but at Toole’s Garage Stockton we consider them quite important, especially in winter. We offer complete car care at our Stockton auto repair facility, and so windshield wipers replacement is one of the services we offer.


Normally, as we drive our cars, we don’t think of windshield wipers until we get caught in a storm. If the wiper blades are past their prime and don’t remove dirt and water quickly, this can create a serious hazard for the driver, passengers, and the cars around them.


We recommend checking your wiper blades at least every 12 months, preferably in early September, so you have time to replace them before the winter rains. Wiper blades should be replaced every 12 to 24 months, the exact timing depends on their condition.


Wiper blades are subject to a number of factors that lessen their lifespan: sun’s UV rays damage the rubber, they endure large temperature variations – even in sunny California, they can go from sub-freezing temperatures to well over a hundred degrees ( your car parked in the sun acts as a sun collector – interior gets really hot, and through the windshield that heat is transferred to the wiper blades), and there is dirt and grime which act as abrasives when the windshield wipers are in use. To top it off, ozone in the air is not kind to rubber parts either.


If you wonder if wiper blades need replacement, you can do a visual inspection, see if there are strips of rubber separating from the wiper blade, or any cracks in the blade. It’s important to get the blades replaced, because eventually these pieces will fall off when the wipers are in use, and metal parts might scratch the windshield as they go through their back-and-forth motions. Another simple test: if the wiper blades make loud sounds when in use, they need to be replaced.


Naturally, we also offer repair and replacement of other wiper components, like the wiper motor or the wiper arm. If the wiper blades are “hesitant” to move, or move slowly even on a high-speed setting, chances are the wiper motor will need replacement. All repairs performed at our auto repair shop are backed by 3 year / 36,000 miles nationwide warranty.


We can inspect wiper blades for you at our Stockton auto repair garage - so next time you visit Toole’s Garage, whether for routine auto maintenance or for major repairs, mention the wiper blades and we will check them out for you.

When it comes to wheel safety, lug nuts don’t always get the attention they deserve. These critical fasteners are what keep your wheels securely attached to your car, and they need to be tightened to a very specific level of force—known as torque. Get it wrong, and you're risking more than just a loose wheel.

It’s difficult to drive anywhere in the Bay Area and not see a lot of Subaru vehicles. Whether it’s the Subaru Crosstrek, WRX, Outback, Forester, or Ascend, Subaru vehicles are everywhere. At Toole’s Garage we are big Subaru fans. Subaru vehicles are built for the great outdoors, and of course California provides plenty of opportunity for on-road and off-road adventures. All wheel drive (AWD) comes standard on many Subaru models, and can provide consistent traction whether you are on a muddy road, or skiing in the Sierras. If a roof rack did not come standard with your model, it’s easy to add. And of course, interior space is pretty generous, especially if you drive an Outback or Ascent – you can stow plenty of camping and hiking gear. At Toole’s Garage we can provide your Subaru with the maintenance it needs to provide you with a reliable ride – wherever your adventures take you. We highly recommend regular oil change – it not only improves performance and extends engine life, but it also allows us to inspect various sub-systems of your Subaru to catch any impending problems (for example, older Subaru models were prone to oil leaks). And if a long summer trip is in the cards, we definitely suggest bringing it in for a checkup. Being a full service auto repair shop, Toole’s Garage can provide your Subaru with routine maintenance services, diagnostics, as well as major repairs. If your Subaru needs new brake pads, has the check engine light “on”, suffers from transmission problems, or needs major engine repairs – we can make your vehicle healthy again. Whether you have owned your Subaru for a long time, or have recently acquired one, bring it to our San Carlos auto repair shop – we will keep your vehicle in peak condition. Call us to make an appointment, or you can make an appointment online, on our website.

Noticing a strange electrical smell inside your car is never a good sign. Unlike spilled food or musty odors, a burning electrical smell often points to a more serious problem. Whether it happens occasionally or lingers every time you drive, it’s important to identify the cause before it turns into a costly repair—or worse, a potential fire hazard.

Thick exhaust smoke isn’t something you should ignore. While a little vapor on a cold morning is normal, persistent, thick smoke in unusual colors signals engine trouble. The color of the smoke—whether it's white, blue, black, or gray—can tell you a lot about what’s happening under the hood. Some causes are easy to fix, but others can indicate serious engine damage that needs immediate attention.
