What We See From Landover Drivers
Landover driving means a lot of Beltway miles, and Beltway miles are hard on different things than city miles. Highway driving surfaces tire wear, alignment problems, cooling-system weaknesses and suspension wear more than stop-and-go does.
We see more overheating complaints and highway-speed vibration from this area than from the neighborhoods immediately around the shop, which usually traces back to tires, alignment or worn suspension.
From Landover To The Shop
From the Landover Road corridor, the shop is a short trip south toward Central Avenue. The shop is at 8632 Edgeworth Dr, Capitol Heights, MD 20743, open 8:30 AM–6:00 PM, seven days a week.
