The first certified battery reconditioning facility in North Carolina, owner Rozel Tolliver says dealing with customer questions is a standard part of the job. Hybrid customers visit because of dashboard indicator lights, low voltage or low power, reduced mileage or frightening failure codes – his careful testing and reconditioning procedures offer peace of mind and get the vehicles back on the road as quickly as possible, with a two-year warranty after reconditioning.

Rozel Tolliver explains the battery reconditioning process.

Tolliver says he’s looking to continue to grow and service customers, continue training for the growth of the electric vehicle population while not overlooking the conventional engines. To meet the his shop’s needs, he says he’s hoping to add technicians, while acknowledging that he’s not alone in this search.

“The industry itself is struggling,” he says. “We’ve been blessed that we’ve been okay in that that part, though there is a struggle because a lot of young people aren’t coming into the industry. It’s definitely a challenge.”
