But you can rest assured that you can worry about one less thing if your student knows that Dykstra's Auto is there to help them with any of their auto service needs. As a premier full-service automotive center serving the Grand Rapids and Kalamazoo areas, students and faculty at GVSU have come to trust us with all of their automotive needs.

Services We Provide
As a full-service auto maintenance and repair center, we do everything. Yet, some of our services are more popular with GVSU students and area community members than others. Here's a look at some of those services we're commonly sought for:
- Routine maintenance: One of the most important things you can do to extend the life of your vehicle and keep it running efficiently and effectively is to ensure the oil is changed regularly. We specialize in routine maintenance - from oil changes to tire rotations, transmission flushes to tune-ups.
- Engine and transmission: The two most important components under the hood of your vehicle, you're not going to go very far if either aren't in good working order. We specialize in engine and transmission maintenance and repair so you can get to where you need to go.
- Battery service: A dead battery can really put a stop to your day, especially when it dies during one of our cold West Michigan winters or hot summer days. We'll check your battery for health, charge it, and replace it if necessary.
