Bay Area ADAS Calibration

Welcome to Tesla service at TechZone Automotive. Gone are the days when you had to visit a Tesla owned and operated service center. As the number of Teslas increased dramatically, it became obvious that Tesla service centers would not be able to handle all that work – and Tesla would have to do what all auto makers have done – rely on independent auto repair shops to provide services for their vehicles. At TechZone Automotive we are one of the few shops in the area that can provide your Tesla with services it requires. Some services are gone for good – no more oil change every 6 months, but there are still services your Tesla needs. Brake service is one of them – even though regenerative braking is easy on the brake pads, they do wear out eventually. When you drive a gasoline powered vehicle, you are in a shop relatively often, so mechanics get to take a look at your brakes. But driving Tesla, you need to make an effort to schedule a brake insp ... read more

Regular wheel alignment is a necessary service, especially if you drive around the Bay Area – between potholes and road work, there is a high probability of your car’s wheels getting out of alignment. In general, we recommend yearly wheel alignment check, unless you know you ran over a major pothole or you hit a curb, a parking stall, or anything might have caused the wheels to go out of alignment – in this cases sooner is better because driving with wheels out-of-alignment can accelerate tire wear, and make car handling more difficult.   At TechZone Auto we offer precision Walnut Creek wheel alignment service. We are the premier ADAS calibration shop in the Bay Area – but we also offer precision wheel alignment because for proper ADAS calibration, the vehicle needs correct wheel alignment. So for us, high quality, precision wheel alignment is simply second nature. So why would you visit a Concord shop for wheel alignment? In addition to technical excell ... read more

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.

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, the ... read more
