It's never a good feeling to find out that your vehicle won't start when you turn the ignition. Thankfully, the service department at Capitol Chevrolet in Salem, Oregon is available to take a look at your Chevy's battery and starter to swiftly pinpoint the problem. Our skilled technicians will get to the bottom of the issue, first ensuring that your vehicle's battery is in good condition before proceeding with testing the starter motor. If the latter is the issue, rest assured that starter replacement is a relatively quick and painless process, and our techs will have you back on the road in no time.

How Will You Know It's Time to Repair/Replace Your Starter
When you hear a clicking sound when you turn the key, it often signals that your car's battery may be too weak or that the starter's electronics are malfunctioning. Alternatively, a whirring noise could mean that while your starter is turning, its gear isn't engaging properly with the engine's flywheel, preventing the engine from turning over. A grinding noise, on the other hand, is usually a sign that the starter gear is not meshing correctly with the flywheel. If you've ever accidentally turned the key when the engine was already running, you've likely heard that unpleasant grinding sound. Any of these issues could point to a problem with your starter. If you've noticed any of these warning signs, bring your vehicle to the Capitol Chevrolet service center, where our certified technicians can replace your starter with a reliable, long-lasting OEM part to keep your engine running smoothly for miles to come.
