Identifying key problem indicators early will help prevent future costly breakdowns. From engines to A/C systems, Middleton & Meads has the technology that can diagnose most problems found on a customer’s vehicle.
• The VIS-Check system which measures brake condition, steering, and suspension systems. Middleton & Meads uses the VIS-Check system to produce detailed reports and graphs providing clear documentation of issues and their resolution. A VIS-Check inspection is a great way to quickly and inexpensively improve a vehicle’s operating efficiency by: determining brake performance issues, increasing brake lining life, increasing brake drum life, improving fuel economy, improving vehicle safety, improving vehicle utilization, and lowering operating costs.

• An advanced paint mixing system that allows Middleton & Meads to ensure the perfect color the first time, every time. When painting a vehicle it is paramount that the color matches the customer’s expectations, so by using our mixing system we can ensure that the color Middleton & Meads paints matches the paint code desired by the customer.
• The Hunter Alignment System in can diagnose problems with a vehicle’s caster, camber, and toe so that the correct adjustments can be made to the vehicle. Having a correctly adjusted alignment can help improve fuel economy and life expectancy of a vehicle’s tires. The system also provides detailed documentation of alignment issues and their adjustments.
