May 8, 2016

Here's a question for Aurora, Illinois : How long have you been enjoying the romantic glow of your Check Engine light?

If your date's eyes are smoldering in the soft glow of the Check Engine light, try to think of all the gas money you'll save by getting it fixed. Give Tuffy Tire & Auto Service Aurora a call when you are ready.
