  I have had repeated problems with the DEF system . I went looking for a service center where I could have a conversation about my vehicle with an informed person at the front desk. I found it at Dales.

  I waited a year to see if there would be problems with a timing belt kit install on a Sequoia.  There are none and the Truck runs great, that s why I gave 5 Stars. I would go back.

  Excellent service.

They’re very professional and would always recommend them, the diagnosis was accurate and fast.
It was a  transmission failure  therefore I needed a replacement, which they delivered at a timely manner, despite the amount of work involved.

Great work and quality.

  A+++. I would highly recommend getting your vehicle serviced at Dale’s. Jameson and his team run an honest shop with fair prices, and the tech’s will treat your car as if it was their own. I’ve taken numerous vehicles to Dale’s over the years and have never had a poor experience.

  Yesterday morning as I prepared to leave my home, my car sputtered to start. I drove to Dale's and thankfully my car could get booked in to check the source of the problem. Within 15 minutes, I was called to advise me that I needed a new battery. Within two hours my car was ready for pickup. I have been a customer for many years and I have always received friendly, informed and timely service.

BMW Suspension Repair FAQ

1) How do I know if my BMW needs suspension work?
Clunks, vibration, uneven tire wear, or a drifting steering wheel are common signs. A road-test and inspection will confirm bushing, joint, or mount wear.

2) Do you handle electric BMW steering systems?
Yes. We service EV and hybrid EPS systems, suspension, and alignments with high-voltage safe procedures.

3) Will I need an alignment after suspension repairs?
Yes—any steering/suspension work that affects geometry should be followed by a four-wheel alignment to protect tires and restore handling.

4) Can you use OEM or performance parts?
Absolutely. We offer OEM, OE-equivalent, and performance options, then torque everything to spec with new hardware when required.

5) How long does a typical repair take?
Most inspections are same-day; many repairs are completed the same or next business day depending on parts and scope. We’ll confirm timelines with your estimate.
