Frequently Asked Questions
FAQ
What payment methods do you accept at your Hyannis location?
For your convenience, CAPE AUTO CARE accepts most major forms of payment, including Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express credit and debit cards. We also accept cash.
Do you offer any towing services if my car breaks down near Cape Cod?
While we do not operate our own tow trucks, we can gladly recommend reliable and affordable local towing services that can bring your vehicle directly to our shop at 24 Plant RD, Hyannis. Just call us, and we can assist you with arrangements.
My replacement module was listed as “pre-programmed” — do I still need service?
Often yes. Many “pre-programmed” modules sold online are flashed with a generic baseline calibration, not the specific file for your VIN. Certain modules — especially on Nissan, Ford, and GM vehicles — also require an immobilizer or anti-theft pairing step that can only be performed with the car present. We recommend bringing the vehicle in to verify before assuming it’s ready to run.
What is ECM or PCM programming, and when do I need it?
ECM (Engine Control Module) and PCM (Powertrain Control Module) programming is the process of writing the correct software calibration to your vehicle’s computer after it has been replaced. You need it any time a control module is replaced — whether it’s a new, remanufactured, or salvage unit. A module without the correct program will often prevent your vehicle from starting or cause serious drivability problems.
Are your mechanics certified, and do you offer a warranty on repairs?
Our staff consists of certified automotive professionals dedicated to high-quality workmanship. We stand confidently behind all our services and offer a strong warranty on both parts and labor. Please ask a service advisor for full warranty details.
Do I need an appointment for an oil change or simple service?
While we strongly recommend scheduling an appointment to guarantee the fastest service, especially for complex repairs, we do accept walk-ins for quick services like oil changes and fluid checks when our schedule allows. It’s always best to call ahead!
How much does ECM or PCM programming cost in Hyannis?
Programming costs vary depending on the module type, the vehicle, and whether additional steps like immobilizer coding or relearn procedures are required. We provide a clear written estimate before any work begins. Contact us at (508) 367-9292 or request an appointment online for a quote specific to your vehicle.
