Frequently Asked Questions – Angry Moose Garage

At Angry Moose Garage, we know that dealing with auto repair or maintenance can feel stressful. That’s why we focus on honest answers, quality workmanship, and clear communication every step of the way. Below are some of the most common questions we hear from drivers in Springfield, Eugene, and the surrounding Oregon area.

Who is the best auto repair shop near Springfield, OR?

We may be a little biased, but many drivers in Springfield and Eugene trust Angry Moose Garage as their go-to repair shop. We’ve built our reputation on straightforward service, experienced technicians, and repairs done right the first time. Whether it’s routine maintenance or a complex repair, our team takes the time to explain what your vehicle needs and why.

What kinds of auto repair services do you offer?

We provide a full range of automotive repair and maintenance services, including oil changes, brake repair, diagnostics, suspension and steering work, heating and air conditioning service, engine repairs, and more. If your vehicle isn’t running the way it should, we’ll find the issue and help you fix it.

Do you work on all makes and models?

Yes. We service most domestic and import vehicles. From daily commuters to trucks and performance vehicles, our technicians have the experience and tools needed to handle a wide variety of makes and models.

How do I know if I can trust an auto repair shop?

Trust matters. At Angry Moose Garage, we:

  • Provide clear, written estimates before work begins
  • Explain repairs in plain language
  • Only recommend services your vehicle actually needs
  • Use quality parts and proven repair methods

Our goal is to earn your trust, not pressure you into repairs.

Do I really need to follow my vehicle’s maintenance schedule?

Yes. Staying on top of routine maintenance like oil changes, fluid services, and inspections helps prevent breakdowns and costly repairs. We can review your manufacturer’s recommendations and help you create a maintenance plan that fits how and where you drive.

How often should I change my oil?

Most vehicles need an oil change every 5,000 to 7,500 miles, but it depends on your vehicle and driving habits. We’ll check your owner’s manual and recommend the best interval to keep your engine protected and running smoothly.

Why is my check engine light on?

A check engine light can mean many things, from a minor issue to something more serious. The best thing to do is have it checked sooner rather than later. We’ll run diagnostic testing, explain what’s going on, and help you decide the best next steps.

What should I do if my brakes are squeaking or grinding?

Don’t ignore brake noises. Squeaking often means worn brake pads, while grinding can indicate more serious damage. Our technicians will inspect your entire brake system and make sure your vehicle is safe to drive.

Why do repair costs vary between shops?

Pricing differences often come down to labor rates, parts quality, and warranty coverage. At Angry Moose Garage, we believe in fair and transparent pricing. We’ll always explain what you’re paying for and make sure you understand your options.

How long will my repair take?

Repair times depend on the service:

  • Routine maintenance is often completed the same day
  • Diagnostic work varies based on the issue
  • Larger repairs may take longer if parts need to be ordered

We’ll give you an honest timeframe and keep you updated along the way.

Do you offer a warranty on your work?

Yes. We stand behind the work we do. Our repairs come with parts and labor warranties so you can feel confident long after you leave our shop.
