Bringing the vehicle in quickly not only prevents expensive downstream repairs but also ensures safe operation.

2013 Lexus LX 570 Check Engine Light Reset

Our technicians at Stevinson Lexus of Frederick explain why dealership-performed resets are different: we pair resets with OEM-level inspections, genuine Lexus parts, and documented repair records that protect warranty coverage and resale value. Rather than a temporary clear, we identify stored trouble codes, test related systems, and recommend repairs designed to deliver lasting results. Transparency is key—before any reset or repair you’ll receive an estimate and a clear explanation of immediate and long-term benefits. We often cost less than independent shops over time because our correct repairs reduce repeat visits and extend vehicle longevity.
