The History of Bars Leaks

At Bar’s Leaks, we try to make everything as easy as possible for our customers. If you can open the hood of your vehicle and open a bottle, using Bar’s Leaks is within your “repair range.” Our products have been making “three-minute mechanics” out of people for decades, for all types of vehicles and just about any leak you can imagine.

We know a leak can stop your life dead in its tracks, and our mission is to get you back on the road – and back to your life – as quickly and affordably as possible.

The Past

Bar’s Leaks is more than just a stop-leak company. We are a team of auto enthusiasts and chemical engineers who create memorable experiences with each one of our customers. With over 75 years of experience in helping everyday automobile owners repair leaks, we have a track record of success and a long history that demonstrates our commitment and passion to helping drivers keep their cars on the road.

The Bar’s Leaks experience encompasses everything from exciting events to a human-staffed, US-based Customer Support team to answer questions and help you through our easy product installation process. You’ll see that our expertise shines through in everything we do, and you’ll understand why we’re always the #1 market leader in chemical repair solutions.

The Present

We want you to experience our life behind the Bar’s Leaks name — a team of dedicated, life-long car lovers, chemical engineers and problem solvers. We can be your go-to fix for any leaks related to cooling systems, engine oil, power steering, head gaskets, transmissions and much more. Our leak repair products travel nicely, too. Keep us in your trunk, your garage, or pick us up on your way to work so we can help you get your vehicle back on the road in case disaster strikes.

As America’s best-known brand of leak-stopping products, we try to live up to our legacy of success each day. While you can find other providers who claim to offer similar leak-stopping products, their formulas don’t always work, and sometimes make things worse. At Bar’s Leaks, we’re not merely dabbling in this industry; we are not simply moonlighting in repair chemicals as just one part of a large business. Rather, we’re solely committed to providing fast, easy, effective ways to repair leaks, and we have the top-flight chemical engineers and customer support specialists to back it up.

Made entirely in the USA, every single Bar’s Leaks product is formulated and manufactured just outside of Detroit, Michigan. We’re committed to creating fast and affordable products that fit perfectly into your lifestyle and budget — just like we were when we first started selling our stop leak products in 1947. Choose Bar’s Leaks so you can discover just how simple automotive maintenance can be when you have the right tools.

The Future

We pride ourselves on keeping up with evolving automotive technology; we’ve been doing that successfully for over 75 years. That’s why we have our focus set squarely on tackling problems that will arise with emerging automotive technologies, such as PHEVs (Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles) and BEVs (Battery Electric Vehicles).

New automotive technologies mean new challenges, and we’ve never been shy about tackling new problems head-on. Soon, you’ll start to see new product lines dedicated solely to addressing the repair and maintenance challenges these new vehicles present to the everyday driver.

We are tremendous advocates of the consumer’s right-to-repair, and we don’t believe that minor-to-moderate car repairs should be the domain of the OE dealership. We will always fight for consumers’ right and ability to repair problems themselves when possible.

Our GuarAntee

We want to help you avoid an expensive trip to the mechanic or dealership. With Bar’s Leaks, what you gain in convenience and cost savings you don’t sacrifice in effectiveness. Bar’s Leaks creates specially formulated products that seal the problem from within, so you can get back to your life — all while avoiding costly repair bills.
