The work you would do

Commercial customers near Ingleside send Ram ProMaster, Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, and Ford Transit vans, delivery vans, and box trucks, so fleet work is part of the job too. Alignments run on a Hunter Hawkeye Elite system with an 18,000 lb rack. See auto repair for Ingleside drivers for the services those customers use.
Illinois requires emissions testing for many vehicles in the Chicago region, including Lake County, so a check engine light matters at renewal time. That makes emissions diagnosis a regular job here, from reading codes to fixing the cause before a retest.
