What does the recirculation button do?


 The recirculation button is found near the AC/heat controls in your vehicle. When the recirculation button is hit, it does what it says, recirculates the air that’s inside the cabin of your vehicle. This button is actually super helpful during extreme temperatures.

During the Summer, the fresh air is super super hot. When you turn the AC on, that hot air is being pulled in from outside and then cooled. By using the recirculation button, your vehicle will cool the air you already have in your vehicle. This will cool your vehicle off faster and decrease wear and tear on your AC system. 


We here at Jerry Noonan’s Auto Center hope you learned a helpful tip from today’s blog post. Thank you for reading along and have a great weekend!

How do I get my car to your mechanical shop?


Here at Jerry Noonan’s Auto Center, we want to make it as simple as possible for you to get your vehicle to us. We are not taking any waiting appointments at this moment so it is important to know your options. Since we take care of all kinds of service here at the shop, from New Jersey State Inspections to Transmission Services, your vehicle could be here for some time. The best way for us to look at it is if it is left here in the morning or from the night before. That way our technicians can check your vehicle out, parts can be ordered, and you can be notified on what is going on all in a timely fashion.

That being said, you might be thinking it would be difficult for you to bring your vehicle to us. Well we have a few new options for you! Introducing our white glove concierge service, which entails one of our technicians coming to your house in the morning around 8:30am to pick up your vehicle and then when we are all wrapped up with it, around 4:30pm it will be dropped back off to you! This is a complimentary service for personal and business locations in our local area. We offer one pickup appointment each day so that’s also something to be mindful of. 

Another option we have is that we work with Uber. Say you were able to drop off your vehicle in the AM but weren't able to get a ride back to the shop to pick up your vehicle when it was finished. We can schedule you a time slot with Uber where they will come to your house or place of work, pick you up, and bring you to the shop. This is also a complimentary service! 

If you have an appointment scheduled and it is easier for you to drop your vehicle off at night, we have an option for you too! We recently purchased a new night drop box and it's more efficient than our older one. You pull into the parking lot here at 251 Applegarth Road, Monroe Township NJ and park your vehicle in one of the spots out front. Once you do that, you will see the night drop box hanging on the wall next to the first bay door. Inside, you can grab an envelope, fill it out, put your keys inside, and then stick it inside the slot that is inside the drop box! It’s that simple. Our night drop box is locked so it is safe and secure so you don’t have to worry about something happening to your keys.

And a final option you have is, if you have a spouse, friend, or neighbor who can help out. They can either follow you here when you come to drop off your vehicle in the morning or come and pick you up. 

Getting your vehicle to our shop can be as easy as possible with these few options listed above. So just to recap, we offer complimentary pickup service appointments once a day, complimentary Uber rides, night drop, and just the helping hand of a friend! Be sure to pick the option that is the best for you. We here at Jerry Noonan’s Auto Center are happy to answer any questions you may have on this topic. Please give us a call at (609)655-2886!!
