At TechZone Automotive Technical Solutions (aka TechZone Auto) we are delighted to announce that we are now offering precision wheel alignment services to the general public. TechZone is the premier Bay Area ADAS calibration, service and repair shop. As such, we work with hundreds of collision shops, and it’s become obvious that car owners need a high precision wheel alignment facility. Most modern cars come equipped with an array of ADAS systems. In order to properly calibrate these systems, the vehicle needs correct wheel alignment – as a matter of fact, many manufacturers insist on precision wheel alignment before ADAS calibration. At TechZone Auto we can perform both front end alignments and four wheel alignments, and our ADAS calibration experience ensures that the wheel alignments we perform satisfy most stringent manufacturer requirements. Our technicians combine decades of experience and the latest in wheel alignment technology to ... read more

Repairs TechZone Auto has been fixing car theft recovery vehicles for a quarter of a century. We are Bay Area’s premier specialists in bringing damaged vehicles back to life. Everything inside the vehicle – “inside the glass” - can be repaired by our technicians. So whether a vehicle suffered damage to the ignition switch, steering column, dashboard or electrical system, we can fix the damage and make the vehicle roadworthy again.

Technician skill and experience is particularly important when it comes to repairing airbag / SRS systems and programming them. This is not a job for amateurs or technicians that see airbag system repair from time to time. We offer sublet serv ... read more

At TechZone Auto we are auto electrical system specialists, so it’s natural for us to provide rodent damage repairs for autos, SUVs and pickup trucks. Thanks to the COVID restrictions, all kinds of wildlife significantly increased in numbers between 2020 and 2023 – and so did rodent population. Rodents are naturally attracted to parked vehicles, and if the vehicle is not moved for a long time, it makes a perfect rodent hotel. They love the dry, quiet place, and all kinds of cool electrical wiring to gnaw on. Rodent damage has also increased because major car manufacturers, including Honda, Subaru and Toyota, now use soy-based bioplastic for electric wire insulation – it’s supposed to be good for the environment, and apparently rodents find it quite tasty. So thanks to the bio-plastic insulation cars are even more attractive to rodents – mice, squirrels, rats, and rabbits. As they gnaw their way through vehicle’s electrical systems, they can c ... read more

At TechZone Automotive Technical Solutions we are not only ADAS specialists, but can also handle complicated wire harness repairs. Wiring harness repair can reduce claim severity, and has been known to save a total loss vehicle. Our technicians can perform on-vehicle harness repair at your location, or we can do it at our shop. Either way you avoid removing and shipping the harness cross-country to a remanufacturing facility – you will save days off your cycle time. OEMs have made available repair bulletins that support wire harness repairs according to their procedures. As a matter of fact, BMW says that they see fewer overall problems when the harness is repaired, not replaced. That’s because harness replacement is such an invasive procedure. At TechZone, about 80% of harness repairs are done on the vehicle, saving cycle time and it also helps to reduce severity. In our experience, most vehicle harnesses can be repaired, on-vehicle, to the OEM standards ... read more
