Alternator, Starter & Car Battery Replacement Services
Alternators
Your alternator powers essential systems while your engine is running. If your lights dim or your battery drains unexpectedly, it may be time for alternator repair or replacement. Our expert team will test your alternator and get you back on the road safely.
Batteries
Your car battery powers everything from the ignition to headlights. If you're jump-starting regularly or seeing a dashboard warning light, it's time to consider a car battery replacement. Our team offers fast battery testing, replacement, charging, and recycling services in Sierra Vista. Not sure how often to replace a car battery? Most drivers should check their battery after 3 years and consider replacing by year 5-especially in extreme climates or with frequent short trips.
Starters
The starter gets your engine going. Clicking sounds or a failure to start can signal a faulty starter motor. We'll diagnose starter issues and repair or replace the component as needed to ensure reliable starts every time.
Battery FAQs
What are common mistakes when jumping a car?
The most common error is reversing the jumper cables-always connect red to positive and black to negative. Using low-quality cables, letting clips touch, or jumping a battery with visible damage can cause serious electrical damage. When in doubt, have Priority Auto & Tire Center perform the jump safely.
What should I be careful of when replacing a car battery?
When replacing a car battery, avoid touching both terminals with the same tool-it can cause a short. Don't drop the battery or reconnect cables before it's securely in place. If you're unsure, let our technicians handle your car battery replacement professionally.
Car Starting FAQs
How do I unlock a locked steering wheel?
Press the brake and gently turn the wheel in the direction it moves slightly while turning the key. This relieves pressure in the column and allows the wheel to unlock. Never force it-if the battery is dead or the key won't turn, consult a professional technician.
What does a failing starter sound like?
Common sounds include a single click, grinding, or even silence when turning the key. These signs often indicate a starter issue that requires immediate inspection and service.

Awesome shop good friendly environment and the best prices in town
Bought a new car had some problems took it to this shop had me fixed up in no time. Will stand behind their work 100%. All the mechanics are very friendly would recommend to anyone
I highly recommend this business. Most people pass by places like this that aren't "well known" names but in this case that's a huge mistake. Back in March I got a flat tire had to get a tow because two bolts on the tire broke during the process of changing the tire. I got towed to Discount Tire they told me they don't fix tire bolts. The tow truck operator told me he would check out Priority Auto but they were already closed according to Google. We drove there to what seemed like a closed shop but the guys although off the clock were helpful and fixed the bolts, put air in the spare tire and and got me back on the road. Very reasonable with pricing and professionalism. THEY DID NOT ATTEMPT TO UP SELL ME! I will be back very soon
