Authorized BG Shop in Independence, KS
Ashcraft Tire & Auto Repair is an Authorized BG Shop. We use BG Products, equipment and specialized service procedures to clean and protect your vehicle's fuel system, engine, transmission and cooling system, helping it run smoother and last longer.
What does an Authorized BG Shop do?
Over time, every system in your vehicle builds up deposits, breaks down its fluids and loses efficiency. BG services go beyond a basic fluid change. They use specialized cleaners and conditioners, along with BG equipment, to clean out deposits and restore protection. As an Authorized BG Shop, Ashcraft follows BG's service procedures and uses genuine BG Products.
BG Products is headquartered in Wichita, Kansas, so it's a Kansas-made solution for Kansas drivers.
BG services we provide
- Fuel system service: cleans fuel injectors, intake valves and combustion chambers to help restore performance and fuel economy.
- Engine oil system service: cleans sludge and deposits from the engine and adds protection with your oil change.
- Transmission service: cleans and replaces worn transmission fluid to help shifting stay smooth.
- Cooling system service: cleans the cooling system and replaces coolant to help prevent overheating and corrosion.
- Brake and power steering fluid services: replace old, contaminated fluid that has absorbed moisture and lost protection.
The exact BG services available depend on your vehicle. We'll explain your options before any work begins.
Six months of roadside assistance with every BG service
Every BG service at Ashcraft comes with six months of BG On The Road roadside assistance. If you're stranded, the program can help with:
- Towing and jump starts
- Tire changes and tire repair or replacement
- Lockout service
- Fuel and fluid delivery
- Emergency travel expense and rental car reimbursement
Coverage is limited to two events in six months, with most services covered up to $100 per event. Renew it every six months with your next BG service. See BG On The Road details.
BG Lifetime Protection Plan
We also offer the BG Lifetime Protection Plan for drivers who stay on top of BG maintenance. To qualify, your vehicle must start BG services before 30,000 miles and stay on the recommended BG service schedule from then on. If your vehicle is still under 30,000 miles, now is the time to start. Ask us about eligibility.
