At Ed's Auto Service of Vineland, we specialize in four-wheel-drive repair services. If your vehicle is four-wheel-drive, our skilled mechanics can provide a wide range of repairs to ensure your vehicle is running at its best. Four-wheel drive, 4WD, 4x4 ("four by four") are terms used to describe a four-wheeled vehicle with a drivetrain that allows all four wheels to receive power from the engine simultaneously. While many people think exclusively of off-road vehicles, powering all four wheels provides better control on slick ice and is an important part of rally racing on mostly-paved roads. Four-wheel drive (4WD or 4x4 for short) was the original term, often used to describe truck-like vehicles that required the driver to manually switch between a two-wheel drive mode for streets and a four-wheel-drive mode for low traction conditions such as ice, mud, or loose gravel. Our mechanics use our longstanding expertise to ensure that your four-wheel-drive vehicle is safe for all types of terrain.
