As your trusted automotive partner at RC Auto Group, serving customers from Newell to Weirton, Steubenville, and across the Ohio Valley, we’ve been listening to your feedback. Over the past few months, we heard a consistent message: “I need more flexibility. My work schedule doesn’t end at 5 PM, and neither do my car troubles.” We listened. And starting this week, we’re delivering the solution you asked for.
Our Service Department is now extending hours every Thursday until 8:00 PM. This means you can drop off your vehicle after work, pick up completed repairs on your way home, or get that check engine light diagnosed without taking time off. Whether you’re coming from Hammondsville, Midland, or Beaver Falls, we’re making it easier to keep your Jeep, Ram, Dodge, or Chrysler running strong—on your schedule, not ours.
Let me explain what this change means for you and why we made it happen.
Why Thursday? Because Your Schedule Demanded It
We analyzed six months of appointment data and customer feedback from our service drive. Thursday emerged as the day where scheduling conflicts were most common. It’s too late in the week to sacrifice a lunch break for an oil change, but too early to wait until Saturday when our bays are packed. By extending Thursday hours to 8 PM, we’re meeting you exactly where you are—between the demands of work and the need to keep your truck or SUV road-ready.
For customers working in Weirton’s steel industry, commuting to Pittsburgh, or managing businesses in East Liverpool, this change means you can finally schedule service around your life instead of rearranging your life around service hours. No more rushing to beat the 6 PM closing time or waiting days for an opening that fits your calendar.
What Services Are Available During Evening Hours?
Our extended Thursday hours aren’t limited service—this is our full team with complete diagnostic capabilities. Here’s what you can schedule for Thursday evenings:
Check Engine Light Diagnosis: Get expert analysis using factory-grade diagnostic tools before the weekend. Our ASE-Certified Technicians will identify the issue and provide repair options the same evening.
Oil Changes & Fluid Services: Full synthetic or conventional oil changes completed in 30-45 minutes. We use genuine Mopar fluids for Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram vehicles to maintain your warranty coverage.
Brake Inspections & Service: Hearing grinding or feeling vibration? Don’t wait. Our team will inspect pads, rotors, calipers, and brake fluid, then provide a detailed estimate. Same-day brake pad replacement available for most models.
Tire Rotations & Pressure Checks: Quick 20-minute service to extend tire life and improve fuel economy. Especially important before winter weather hits the valley.
State Inspections: West Virginia state safety and emissions inspections completed while you wait. Beat the deadline stress.
Multi-Point Inspections: Comprehensive 27-point check covering battery, belts, hoses, fluids, filters, suspension, and lighting. Catch small problems before they become expensive repairs.
If you need major repair work that requires more time (transmission service, engine diagnostics, electrical troubleshooting), you can drop off Thursday evening and we’ll start first thing Friday morning. We’ll call with an update and estimate by 10 AM Friday so you can make informed decisions without losing your vehicle for days.
How RC Auto Group Service Is Different
At RC Auto Group, located at 845 Washington St, Newell, WV 26050, we’re not a quick-lube chain or a national service center. We’re your local Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram dealership with factory-trained technicians who know these vehicles inside and out. We know the local roads—the potholes on Route 2, the steep grades on Route 7, the river fog that rusts brake components faster than normal. Your vehicle faces unique challenges in the Ohio Valley, and our team understands how to address them.
Unlike big-box service centers, we stock genuine Mopar parts on-site. You can browse our Parts Department for replacement components, accessories, and performance upgrades. When we install parts, they’re the same quality the factory uses—not aftermarket substitutes that void warranties or fail prematurely.
We also offer conveniences that matter when you’re juggling work and family: Free WiFi, Rental Vehicles, and Shuttle Services to get you where you need to go while we handle the repair. Our comfortable waiting area has coffee, charging stations, and real-time updates on your service progress.
How to Schedule Your Thursday Evening Appointment
We’re making it easy to take advantage of these new hours:
Online Scheduling: Visit gorcauto.com/schedule-service and select Thursday evening time slots. You’ll get instant confirmation and reminder texts.
Call Us: Phone (304) 387-3100 and mention you need a Thursday evening appointment. Our service advisors will find the slot that works for you.
Walk-Ins Welcome: Thursday drop-offs accepted until 7:30 PM on a first-come, first-served basis for quick services like oil changes and tire rotations. For complex diagnostics or repairs, we recommend calling ahead.
Our team is committed to these extended hours long-term. This isn’t a trial or a temporary promotion—it’s our new standard. We heard you say you needed more flexibility, and we’re delivering it permanently.
Choosing the Right Service Partner for Your Vehicle
Whether you drive a rugged Jeep Wrangler from our new inventory, a family-friendly Chrysler Pacifica, or a hard-working Ram 1500 from our lineup, regular maintenance isn’t optional—it’s essential. Modern vehicles rely on computer systems, turbochargers, advanced transmissions, and emission controls that require expert attention. Skipping maintenance or using unqualified shops leads to expensive failures down the road.
If your budget points you toward a quality used vehicle, we have over 40 used models in stock, ready for you to explore at our used inventory. From certified pre-owned Jeep Grand Cherokees to reliable Ram trucks with full service history, we match your needs with vehicles we trust.
Your Truck Deserves Expert Care
From my years managing service operations for customers across Newell, Weirton, Steubenville, and the surrounding valley, here’s what I know matters most:
Regular maintenance saves thousands in avoided repairs. A $75 oil change prevents a $4,000 engine replacement.
Factory-trained technicians catch problems early. We know what Ram trucks commonly need at 60,000 miles, what Jeep Wranglers require for off-road reliability, what Dodge Chargers need to maintain performance.
Convenience matters. If service is inconvenient, you’ll delay it—and small problems become big ones. Our Thursday evening hours remove that excuse.
Local expertise matters. We drive these roads. We know winter salt eats brake lines, potholes destroy ball joints, and river humidity accelerates rust. We check for these issues proactively.
Your vehicle is more than transportation—it’s how you get to work, how you move your family, how you tow your boat or haul materials for your business. It deserves care from people who understand its importance to your life.
If you’re ready to experience service that respects your schedule, call us at (304) 387-3100 or visit us at 845 Washington St, Newell, WV 26050. We’re here to keep you moving—whether that’s across the valley to work or across the country on your next adventure.
