Automotive Technology Repair Procedures

Below are the procedures for requesting repairs.

  • Once the form is completed, the Automotive instructors will review the information, and will contact the customer to schedule an appointment.
  • Repair orders will be electronically generated and printed to the main office. As in the past, customers’ keys and slips will be available at the end of the day in the main office.
