Snow, Snow, Snow, and Toyota

The last week has been very eventful in our area. We have all expreieced record snow fall, some people have seen over 38 inches of snow. This is a historic event. If you have a picture of your car covered in snow or a picture of your new "snow garage"(the space once filled by your car), send it to autocare@chapelgate.org. We would like to post them to our blog page. Hopefully we will not see this kind of snow again!

The other major event is the recalls from Toyota. Over 1 million cars recalled to address acceleration and braking issues. At the 2009 Winter Auto Care Saturday, we worked on 9 Toyotas. That is 32% of all the cars we looked at in December. If you have questions about the recall, check the Toyota website for more information.  If you have not been contacted by Toyota, give them a call. The closest Toyota dealers to Chapelgate are:
