Why Auto Centric Stands Out Among Northview Auto Shops

Northview is a community in Kent County that relies on local and nearby shops for auto repair services. Grand Rapids is close to Northview and offers many quality auto repair businesses, like Auto Centric Repair.

The community in Northview is a short drive from Auto Centric Repair, an auto repair shop that puts customer education and service transparency at the top of the list. With decades’ worth of experience, the shop has been servicing people from Northview, Grand Rapids, Plainfield Charter Township, etc.

Auto Centric Repair’s history starts in 1978 when it was originally called Marathon Service Station. The founder, Tom Ham, went through all stages of being a master mechanic, from starting as an associate doing oil changes and minor repairs, to eventually opening up a business. Eventually, with tons of experience and some master technicians, Tom moved the shop’s location to Grand Rapids in 2010 and changed the name to ‘Auto Centric Repair.’

The shop honed customer service to perfection, focusing on delivering customer education and transparency to build strong long-term relationships with the community.

Driving in Northview, Michigan

Northview is pretty light on traffic. The community’s roads are rarely packed with vehicles, allowing for easy driving. The weather, on the other hand, might ask for some preparation depending on the season you’re in. Here are a few factors to keep in mind:

• 
  Climate: Northview’s climate can be comfortably warm from June to August, making it the best season to drive around and travel the area. Between November and April, the temperatures drop significantly, even reaching 3ºF in January; the freezing season impacts driving and requires preparation.
• Traffic: Northview has pretty light traffic. With a population of roughly fourteen thousand, the community’s roads are peaceful and won’t have traffic jams even during rush hour.
• Neighborhoods: If you have to drive around commercial neighborhoods in Northview, you might notice more cars on the road. Although traffic is generally lighter, if you drive around Plainfield Avenue North East you’ll notice more cars than if you drive through Providence Street North East. This is because one area is mostly commercial and the other is residential.
• Distance: A long-distance drive from Northview to Rockford will have different factors on your drive, for example. You might need to prepare the car better to hit the highway depending on the season.

Northview has honest light traffic and good roads. So, overall driving around the area should be comfortable and easy, even during rush hour.
