Why the Right Starter Matters
A starter is the electric motor that turns your engine over and gets it running. Without it, you’re going nowhere. When a starter begins to fail, you may notice slow cranking, clicking sounds, or even complete engine silence. Replacing it with a quality unit ensures your engine fires up fast, every time.
