Your hybrid car’s electric motor allows it to save gas when driving around in stop and go traffic. Getting your car rolling strains your engine much more than cruising along at a steady pace. This is where the torque of an electric motor comes into the hybrid drive system, and where your gas savings come from. At Mission Auto Care, our experts are trained to keep those savings coming, by ensuring that the electric motors in your hybrid or EV are in optimal working condition. We provide diagnostic testing, repairs, and preventative maintenance for drivers near Oceanside and Vista to make sure your hybrid or EV remains at peak performance.

Without your vehicle’s battery and charging systems, those fuel-saving electric motors will have no power to turn. The specialized batteries in hybrid and electric vehicles are the costliest part of the entire system, so they should be serviced by mechanics that have expert training in the field. At Mission Auto Care we ensure that only certified technicians, fully trained across all major manufacturers’ power systems, will service your vehicle’s battery and charging systems. As with your vehicle’s electric motors, we can diagnose and repair issues, as well as sourcing and installing quality replacement parts should the job require it.

The capacity for regenerative braking is another clever feature of your hybrid or EV. This kind of braking essentially puts the electric motor(s) into reverse, assisting the mechanical brake pads and slowing the vehicle while generating electricity to charge the battery. A beneficial side effect of this system is the longevity that drivers see in the life of their brake system. At Mission Auto Care we carefully monitor your vehicle’s brake pads to ensure the pads last as long as possible, saving you even more money in the process. When it’s finally time to replace the pads, we’ll have you back on the road within a matter of hours.
