No matter how well they’re made, cars are bound to have problems with their design or manufacturing. Think of all the moving parts. When the government thinks a problem is really serious, they require the vehicle manufacturer to issue recall notices to Boulder residents and to fix the affected cars free of charge. The auto manufacturer then tries to contact all Boulder drivers who own that type of car so they can have it taken care of at their Boulder service center.

Recalls are pretty serious and don’t happen all that often. But sometimes cars have less serious problems that Boulder car owners still might want to know about. For these less serious cases, car makers issue what is known as a Technical Service Bulletin – or TSB. These bulletins tell Boulder service centers how to repair a problem that occurs frequently or is especially difficult.
Your Boulder service specialist receives updated information through subscription plans, which are sometimes available in consumer versions too. You can buy access to these for an annual fee.
