What it’s like in Highland Park
Many cars in the Park Cities are newer models with push-button start, start-stop and a lot of electronics that keep drawing power while parked, so a garage-kept car can be dead after a few weeks of summer travel. Around Highland Park Village, cars sit in the sun between errands. On narrow blocks with cars along both curbs, a flat often has to be changed right where the car is parked.
We cover Old Highland Park, Highland Park West of Preston, Highland Park Village and Park Cities and the rest of Highland Park (75205, 75209, 75219, 75225).
If your car dies on a narrow street, turn on the hazards and leave room for neighbors to pass; we can work at the curb as long as the car is out of the travel lane.
Car lockout in Highland Park
Day or night: your driveway, the parking garage at work or the shoulder of the freeway.

Questions
01Can you work on a car parked on the street in Highland Park?
Yes, as long as it is parked legally and out of the travel lane. Give us the address and say which side of the street the car is on.
02My car sat in the garage while I traveled and now it's dead. Do I need a jump or a new battery?
A jump will often get it running. If the battery is several summers old or goes dead again within a few days, replacing it is the safer choice, and we can do that in your garage.
03Will you damage my door or window?
No. An air wedge opens a small gap at the door frame and a coated rod presses the unlock button or handle.
04My car is running with the keys inside. What now?
Leave it running if it is parked safely and call us. Tell dispatch the engine is on so the job is handled first.
