Although we’re in the business of auto collision repair, the truth is that we wish you never have to use us for it. Of course we’ll put your vehicle back together and have it looking like new following a collision, but we’d prefer that you never get involved in an automotive accident in the first place. To help you protect yourself, your family, and your vehicle, here are a few defensive driving tips from your friends here at Greulich's Automotive Service & Collision:
- Don’t Follow Too Closely
Keeping a safe following distance is one of the easiest and most commonly broken rules of defensive driving. At the very least, you should have at least 3 seconds in between you and the vehicle in front of you. When visibility is low or weather conditions are less than perfect, you should increase the following distance to at least 5 seconds. If you keep your distance, you will almost always have an escape route or will be able to take some sort of evasive action with ease.
- Watch Out for Aggressive Drivers
Sometimes, it doesn’t matter how safely you drive but how well you can avoid aggressive drivers. If another driver is endangering you or threatening to cause a collision, the best tactic is avoidance. Common aggressive driving behaviors include tailgating, weaving in and out of traffic, passing cars on the right, and racing for a position on the highway.
- Be Aware of Your Surroundings
One of the major fundamentals of defensive driving is observing and responding to the unexpected things that other drivers do. By constantly scanning the road ahead and behind you, you will be able to spot aggressive drivers, road hazards, debris, and other traffic conditions that may cause an accident. It’s also a good idea to mentally prepare an “escape plan” while driving in traffic in case a dangerous situation presents itself.
Even if you are the safest drivers on the planet, you aren’t impervious to car accidents. Fortunately, the auto body and collision repair specialists here at Greulich's Automotive can have your vehicle back to pre-collision condition in no time at all. If you have any questions about our auto collision repair services, contact us online or give us a call at (480) 389-2358.

Greulich’s #2 Fuel System Cleaning: Over time, the fuel system gets gum and varnish built up. A fuel system cleaning at Greulich’s #2 gets rid of that and cleans out the fuel injectors. Saves gas as you drive around Phoenix and on Phoenix freeways, by the way.
Greulich’s #2 Headlamp Replacement: Halogen and standard headlamps gradually fade. When one burns out, replace both so they’ll have the same brightness. Also, if your headlamp lenses are yellowed or cloudy, you can have them professionally restored to like new-condition. As your courteous Greulich’s #2 advisor for information.
Greulich’s #2 Inspections: Phoenix drivers get inspections for many reasons. Maybe they’re going on a trip or just want to make sure their vehicle’s ready for summer or winter in Phoenix. Maybe they just bought a used car and want to give it the once over. An inspection at Greulich’s #2 may reveal some things that are broken or are getting close to having a problem.
Greulich’s #2 Oil Change Service – there are several options: Some Phoenix auto service centers offer just an oil change and new filter as an option.

Most Mesa area car owners don’t service their air conditioning until after it fails.Maintaining your pickup air conditioning system means that you always have enough refrigerant to properly do the job. Small leaks in the air conditioning system allow the refrigerant to escape and the system can’t cool the air as well.
Along with the refrigerant, a special oil circulates in the system. The oil lubricates air conditioning components, and keeps the seals resilient. Low refrigerant and lubricating oil means that the air conditioning parts will wear out prematurely, and we all know that air conditioning repairs can be costly in Mesa.
Air conditioning service at Greulich’s #23 in Mesa starts with a visual inspection of the components for signs of damage or leaks. The compressor is driven by a belt from the engine, most often the serpentine belt, so it’s inspected for cracks or wear.
