If you're in Hiddenite and your car needs thermostat replacement, you don't have to get it to a shop. We're a mobile mechanic based in Statesville, roughly 25 minutes from our base, and we do this job in driveways and parking lots around Emerald Hollow Mine area every week.
Why Hiddenite drivers book mobile thermostat replacement
Hiddenite is gem-mine country west on US-64. Plenty of gravel and no shop for miles, so we come to you. For thermostat replacement, that means no tow, no ride-share to a shop, and no day off work — we do the job on site and you get your keys back the same visit.
What's included
The thermostat regulates engine temperature. When it sticks open, the engine never warms up, the heater is weak, and the computer runs rich. When it sticks closed, the engine overheats fast. Both are common failures and both are a quick driveway repair on most vehicles.

- Drain coolant partially and remove the thermostat housing
