Here's an interesting statistic about summer: it is the season with the highest number of accidents and emergency room visits. Why is this? Well, a lot of it has to do with the fact that more people are outside playing, driving around more, and getting into various levels of trouble. Warmth and sunshine can do that to you. Why else do you think Independence Day and Bastille Day happened in the hot month of July? Anyway, as you can imagine, more auto accidents happen in summer, too. That's why Robert's Auto Repair is proud of its role as your car's "first responder". If you are in an accident on the Monterey Peninsula, chances are very good that our neighbors, Monterey Garage and Towing, will be the ones to tow your car to safety. Insurance adjusters are often found on-site at Robert's Auto Repair, and we even have an on-site Enterprise Rental Car office. Think of us as your car's "emergency room". So, if accidents are going to happen, doesn't it feel better to know that Robert's ... read more

When it comes to vehicle maintenance and repair, knowledge truly is power. Understanding your car's needs not only enhances safety but also helps you avoid unnecessary accidents and expenses. At CARSTAR Robert's Collision, we believe in empowering our clients with the information they need to make informed decisions about their vehicles. Why Vehicle Knowledge Matters One of the primary reasons to familiarize yourself with your vehicle is safety. Regular maintenance checks and understanding warning signs can prevent breakdowns and accidents. For instance, knowing the significance of dashboard warning lights and the sounds your car makes can alert you to potential issues before they become serious problems. A well-maintained vehicle is less likely to require expensive repairs. By staying informed about your car's maintenance schedule, you can ensure timely servicing, which helps extend the lifespan of your vehicle and reduces the risk of major breakdowns.

I love it when I wake up in the morning, pain-free, feeling good, and ready for my day. On days like that, I feel unstoppable. Like everything's going my way. I feel like a smooth-running machine, like a racehorse, or like a marathon runner...moving like a finely-tuned, precision instrument. Sometimes, however, I feel off when I wake up. My neck aches because I slept on it wrong. I'm dragging out of bed. I don't feel motivated, excited, or joyful about the start of my day. That's when I'm not feeling precise about anything! So, how do you think your auto feels at the start of its day? Has it been maintained lately and given a new oil change? Are the tires looking good and properly inflated? Is the body looking smooth, shiny, and new? Is the engine purring? Are all the lights working? Without maintenance, precision flies out the window. Without precision, we feel and operate out of balance. When we're out of balance, we overcompensate and our parts start weari ... read more
