Jordan Steinkellner
Automotive Service Technician
Jordan is another of our Kiswaukee College Automotive Program graduates. As a matter of fact, he graduated with a 4.0 grade point average.
Read more...Job Description:
Jordan performs most of the service maintenance on our customer’s cars, keeping them in prime condition.
But Jordan does much more than that. A recent example blew my socks off. Jordan was working on a 2004 Buick Rendezvous which would not start. Diagnosis revealed the computer communication data lines had failed. Armed with a wiring diagram and trained to use it, Jordan traced all the data lines through a closed harness, and eventually found a corroded connection, hidden unseen, deep inside the harness. Once repaired the Buick fired to life. Way to go Jordan!
Education:
Motor Works consistently apprentices Kishwaukee College’s top automotive students, and then hires them full time when they have completed their education. This long-term approach guarantees Motor Works has top flight, educated technicians, who are thoroughly trained and coached to our exacting standards.
Continuing education from the best trainers in the country, keeps all of Motor Works’ technicians up to date on the latest automotive technology.
Personal Interests:
Jordan is happiest when tinkering with anything automotive. He especially loves to renovate older cars and make old iron sing a new song once again.
