Elm Grove is a rural community in Bossier Parish, south of Bossier City. Out there, your vehicle isn't a convenience, it's how you get everywhere: work, school, groceries and appointments in town. When it needs repair, Red River Auto Care at 1616 Jimmie Davis Hwy in Bossier City is ready to help, with straight answers and repairs built to last.
Built for Country Miles
Rural driving puts different demands on a vehicle than city driving. Longer distances add up miles quickly. Gravel and rough roads are hard on suspension, shocks and struts and alignment. Dust clogs filters faster. Trucks and SUVs that haul or tow need healthy brakes and cooling systems. Keeping up with oil changes and catching small problems early matters more when the nearest shop isn't around the corner.
What to Expect at Our Shop
- No appointment needed. Drop off your vehicle Monday through Friday, 7:30 AM to 5:00 PM.
- Free check engine code scans, with an honest explanation of what the code means and what it doesn't.
- Lifetime warranty on parts and 2 years on labor on our repairs.
- 24/7 towing at (318) 470-7807, or request a tow online at towme.info.
We find the problem first, explain it in plain terms, and lay out your options before any work begins. You decide what gets done and when.
Make the Trip Count
Because Elm Grove is a drive from town, a little planning saves time. Call (318) 584-6703 ahead to describe what's going on. Write down when the problem shows up: cold mornings, highway speeds, braking, turning, or after a long drive. If you're coming in for one thing, ask us to look at anything else that's been bothering you so you can handle it in one visit.
If a warning light is on, start with our free check engine code scan. A scan reads the codes stored in your vehicle's computer and tells us where to look. It isn't always a complete diagnosis, and when more testing is needed we'll explain what that involves before going further.
Broke Down on a Country Road?
Breakdowns away from town are stressful. Our 24/7 towing line is (318) 470-7807, and you can also request a tow online at towme.info. If your vehicle won't start, is overheating, or isn't safe to drive, don't push it. Get somewhere safe, call us, and we'll get it to our shop. Learn more about our towing service.
Signs It's Time to Come In
- Grinding or squealing brakes, or a soft pedal
- A steering wheel shimmy or pull after rough roads
- The temperature gauge climbing, or coolant on the ground
- A check engine light, steady or flashing
- Hard starting or dimming lights
We also serve Bossier City, South Bossier, Haughton, Benton and Shreveport.
Trucks, SUVs and Work Vehicles
Many vehicles in rural Bossier Parish do real work: pulling trailers, hauling feed and equipment, or handling long daily commutes. Extra weight and towing put more heat into brakes and cooling systems and more stress on suspension, steering and charging systems. If your truck feels different under load, like a softer brake pedal, a temperature gauge that creeps up, or steering that wanders, have it checked before your next big haul.
We'll look at the whole picture, explain what we find in plain terms, and let you decide what gets done. That way your work vehicle stays ready when you need it, and you're not caught off guard by a repair that could have been caught early. Our repairs carry a lifetime warranty on parts and 2 years on labor.
