The Tire Pressure Monitoring System light, or TPMS light, is an important dashboard indicator that signals issues with your vehicle’s tire pressure or with the tire pressure monitoring system. Proper tire pressure is essential for safe handling, efficient braking, and optimal fuel economy. When the TPMS light illuminates, it’s important to get the issue handled in a timely fashion. At Fremont Auto Center we can inspect and repair TPMS problems – whether they are due to tire condition or the condition of the TPMS system itself. What the TPMS Light Indicates The TPMS light activates when one or more tires fall outside the manufacturer’s recommended pressure range. Modern vehicles use sensors to continuously monitor tire pressure and send data to the vehicle’s computer. If a sensor detects that the tire pressure fell more than 25% below manufacturer recommended pressure, the TPMS light turns on. When the light comes on, but there has been n ... read more

If your Honda Accord doesn’t ride as smoothly as it used to, your suspension might be trying to tell you something. The suspension does more than just keep your drive comfortable—it’s what keeps your tires firmly on the road, your handling sharp, and your safety intact. At Fremont Auto Center, we help Honda owners restore their cars’ balance, comfort, and control with expert suspension repair and maintenance. Over time, suspension components like shocks, struts, and control arms wear down due to constant movement and road impact. You might notice your Accord bouncing excessively after hitting bumps, leaning too much when turning, or feeling unstable at higher speeds. Uneven tire wear, steering noise, or a rough ride are also clear warning signs that it’s time to have the suspension inspected. Ignoring these symptoms will not help, they will not go away, they will only get worse. At Fremont Auto Center your Honda Accord is handled by nationally ASE-certif ... read more

When the world gets cold, car batteries die. It’s just the nature of the beast – in warm weather, even a marginal car battery can hold enough charge to start your car’s engine. But when the cold fronts roll in, weak or old batteries no longer store enough electricity to start the engine. So if your car’s battery is 3 years or older, or if you sensed any hesitation when trying to start your vehicle, make an appointment for a battery check. Our nationally ASE-certified technicians will test the battery and determine if it’s healthy enough last through the winter. At Fremont Auto Center we highly recommend a pre-winter check for your vehicle, and battery is one of the key items on the list. If the battery is weak, it may not have been noticeable during the warm weather, but the last thing you want is to be stranded somewhere in a storm, all because your car’s battery did not hold enough energy to start your car. If a replacement is necessary, we will f ... read more

  Tesla vehicles are very popular around the Bay Area, and Fremont is no exception. Built to last, your Tesla will require service from time to time, including brake rotors replacement.

No, it’s not Fremont Auto Center – we have not been around for that long, but Chrysler Corporation has! Yes, Chrysler Corporation celebrates 100 years in business as of June 2025. Walter Chrysler founded the firm in June 1925, only four years before the Great Depression. Yet, Chrysler Corporation managed to survive the economic bloodbath, World War II, and a few more decades of economic turmoil, including the rise of Japanese car makers. Today Chrysler is part of Stellantis North America and produces award winning Chrysler Pacifica, as well as Chrysler Voyager minivans. Fremont Auto Center has been working on Chrysler vehicles for as long as we have been in business, and will continue to support Chrysler owners into the future.

Naturally we fully support Chrysler V ... read more

The first heatwave of the Spring is over, and we can expect a heatwave or two before the Summer officially starts. Avoid the summer rush by bringing your vehicle to Fremont Auto Center now, to get the a/c checked out before the Summer. Yes, you can do the basic check at home - turn on the a/c in your car and feel the cold air. But this is not a substitute for a professional a/c inspection and evaluation. This is especially important if you plan a summer trip that will take you into the Wild Blue Yonder – where auto repair shops are scarce. As a matter of fact, a/c inspection should be a subset of a thorough car checkup before you head out into the wilderness. Auto a/c system can fail to keep you cool for many reasons: low refrigerant levels, cracked hoses, faulty sensors, leaks, blower motor fuse or relay failing – plenty of things to go wrong, and usually at the worst possible time. That’s why at Fremont Auto Center we offer comprehensive auto ac checkup performed b ... read more
