Fairlawn battery service
Ohio winters are hard on batteries, and a slow crank on a cold morning is your warning that a no-start is coming. But a dead battery is not always the whole story. A failing alternator that stopped charging or a weak starter can leave you stranded just as fast. Our Fairlawn team tests the entire starting and charging system so you fix the real cause and get back to reliable starts.
At our Medina Road shop we test your battery, alternator and starter for free, then install a quality battery matched to your vehicle if that is what you need, usually while you wait. If the charging system is the culprit, we will show you the readings and explain your options with an upfront quote. Fairlawn, Montrose and Copley drivers count on us so they are never stuck in a cold parking lot.

Very pleasant experience. Work was done while I waited. As always, Dave was up front and honest answering all my questions, and his crew did a quality job at a great price. It is the only place I go to diagnose and repair or service my vehicle.
Thank you Dave for squeezing me in! Incredible and honest service and I'll absolutely recommend you to friends and family!
For more than 17 years Rad Air in Fairlawn has been my go-to shop for car service.
Always great service and very professional.
Dave and the team are the best! They are fast, friendly and do great work. They can always fit you in and I have never once left there not feeling confident in the work. Fantastic all around.
Dave George was so helpful and since my problem occurred so suddenly he really accommodated my issues. He explained the repair and was very thorough. He got me in first thing and repaired it quite efficiently. He showed me the faulty part that was replaced and the shop communication was so easy. It felt very low pressure. A lot of my coworkers have expressed the same opinions of Dave and the mechanics. Thank you to everyone involved.
The guys replaced some rusted out rear suspension parts on my VW. In and out in the same day. Didn't try to over sell service I didn't need.
Excellent work and very friendly staff and fast work completing the issue on my car.
As always the service was amazing. I feel as though I'm dealing with a family member that really cares about me and my car. You came and got my car and returned it when the job was finished. I can always count on you to go over and above what is expected. I am grateful that you live close by. Thanks a bunch.
What could have been a less than great experience ended up being one, simply based on customer service. I really appreciate that level of efficiency and no nonsense resolution. Building trust is pretty critical these days and goes a long way. Will return!
These guys are great. They have the best prices, great selection and awesome customer service. I would definitely recommend them.
Out of town traveling and my vehicle went into limp mode. They got me in with zero notice, replaced the sensor, and got me back on the road very quickly. Thanks so much! Highly recommend!
