Authorized Jasper Dealer
Give Your Vehicle a New Lease on Life with JASPER. That big oil slick in your driveway or those strange noises from under your hood don't have to mean you'll be saddled with a new car payment soon. Instead, your trusted installer at American Brake Centers Inc. can drop in a completely remanufactured JASPER gas or diesel engine, transmission or differential and get you back on the road again quickly! Call American Brake Centers Inc. at (502) 203-0454 for Bashford Ave or (502) 230-4279 for the Preston Hwy location to schedule an appointment. Proudly remanufactured in the U.S.A.

Cylinder Block
A cylinder block is the powerhouse for the motor vehicle. The solid cast car part houses the cylinders and their components (gaskets, valves, and seals) inside a lubricated and cooled crankcase. Since it is one of the most important parts of your car, the block is designed to be extremely strong and sturdy. Although strong and sturdy, the block is susceptible to failure resulting in a vehicle that won't start. Cracked blocks, porous blocks, core plug, or freeze plug failure are some of the problems facing cylinder blocks. Call (502) 203-0454 for Bashford Ave or (502) 230-4279 for the Preston Hwy location to talk to the mechanics of American Brake Centers Inc. about your cylinder block problems.

Cylinder Head
A cylinder head is the closed end of a cylinder (located in a car's engine block). It sits above the cylinder block, closing the top of the cylinder and forming the combustion chamber. The cylinder head coordinates airflow in and out of the engine. Since the cylinder head's chief function is to seal the cylinders properly, insufficient compression results in the car being difficult to drive. To have your cylinder head checked and repaired, talk to American Brake Centers Inc.'s cylinder head repair and reconditioning specialists today.

Engine Maintenance
Any car part manufacturer will tell you that preventive maintenance is critical to the part's lifespan. Like other auto parts, car engines aren't built to last forever. However, you can increase the engine's lifespan by performing regular preventive maintenance. The easiest way to maintain peak performance and fuel economy is to provide regular engine maintenance for your vehicle. To have your engine maintained by experts, visit American Brake Centers Inc..

Engine Replacement
The engine converts energy into useful mechanical motion. This amazing machine is what keeps your vehicle moving. Although generally reliable, a car engine is susceptible to damage and breakdown. When this happens, do not sit and stress over it. Take action. Take the vehicle to a mechanic for an engine replacement. Bring it to American Brake Centers Inc.. Visit us at 3435 Bashford Ave Ct for quality engine replacement services.

Timing Belt
A timing belt is a part of your car's internal combustion engine. The belt synchronizes the camshaft and the crankshaft rotation so that the engine valves open and close at the correct timings. Also, the belt prevents the piston from striking the valves in an interference engine. A timing belt is a rubber belt that usually features teeth on the inside surface, while a timing chain is a metal roller chain. Most cars we drive now have timing belts instead of timing chains and gears. Although different manufacturers have their recommended mileage, you need to have your car's timing belt checked regularly. To have it checked by experts, contact American Brake Centers Inc. today.

Transmission Flush
Although most manufacturers recommend a transmission flush every 30,000 miles or every two years, some symptoms may indicate that you need a transmission flush sooner. Some of the symptoms that indicate that your car needs a transmission flush sooner are: transmission grinding or strange noises, problems shifting gears, slipping gears, surging of the car, and delay in vehicle movement. Flushing the used fluid from the transmission washes away tiny particles of dirt, clutch material, and metal shavings. For all your transmission flush needs, call (502) 203-0454 for Bashford Ave or (502) 230-4279 for the Preston Hwy location or visit American Brake Centers Inc. today - we are transmission experts.

Transmission Maintenance
Any car part manufacturer will tell you that preventive maintenance is critical to the part's lifespan. Like other auto parts, car transmissions aren't built to last forever. However, you can increase the transmission's lifespan by performing regular preventive maintenance. The easiest way to maintain peak performance and fuel economy is to provide regular transmission maintenance for your vehicle. To have your transmission maintained by experts, visit American Brake Centers Inc..

Transmission Repair
Our services include transmission repair on both manual and automatic transmissions. The first step in getting you back on the road is assessing your transmission to accurately determine the source of the problem. In some cases, we are able to repair your transmission simply with adjustments, replacing external seals, or replacing accessible parts. To have this done by specialists, call (502) 203-0454 for Bashford Ave or (502) 230-4279 for the Preston Hwy location to talk to the mechanics of American Brake Centers Inc. today.

Transmission Replacement
In motor vehicles, the transmission usually refers to the gear box, which uses gears and gear trains to transmit speed and torque from a rotating power source to another device. You can have your car's transmission replaced with a new, rebuilt, remanufactured, repaired or used transmission. For more information contact American Brake Centers Inc. in Louisville, KY. Our experienced service technicians can help you make the best decision for your vehicle and your wallet.

Engine & Transmission

04/15/2023

As requested by the manufacturer, I was recently required to have my vehicle serviced by a dealership as part of my warranty for an engine diagnosis. After several months of multiple misdiagnoses, overlooked and newly created issues after their first repair, a lack of communication, transparency, and accountability, and multiple expenses being billed to my extended warranty, in addition to my loss of work time and out-of-pocket costs, I decided to obtain a second opinion from AMERICAN BRAKE CENTER and AUTO CARE. As compared to the dealership's three options at a higher cost with limited warranty coverages, AMERICAN BRAKE CENTER and AUTO CARE presented the best sustainable option and timeframe. After receiving approval from my extended warranty, AMERICAN BRAKE CENTER and AUTO CARE completed the engine replacement and kept me informed of the progress throughout the process. It has been my pleasure for the past ten years to be a customer of AMERICAN BRAKE CENTER and AUTO CARE at both of their locations. A hallmark of their company is the dedication and commitment they have to providing exceptional and quality customer service, education and care, effective and transparent communication, reasonable prices, warranty coverages, and recommended maintenance and services, all of which builds and sustains trust with their customers and the community. A special thank you to AMERICAN BRAKE CENTER and AUTO CARE for another service that is second to none!
