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.

I had such a positive experience with Dil and the entire team at Dale’s Auto Service. From the moment I walked in, everyone was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and professional. They took the time to listen to my concerns, answer all of my questions, and explain everything in a way that was easy to understand without ever making me feel rushed or uncomfortable. As a woman, going into a mechanical or automotive repair facility can sometimes feel intimidating, especially if you don’t have a lot of mechanical knowledge. Unfortunately, it can be difficult to know whether you are being given all of the information or being treated fairly. My experience at Dale’s Auto Service was completely different. I genuinely felt respected, comfortable, and included throughout the entire process. Dil was especially helpful and made the whole experience incredibly easy. He was patient with all of my questions and made sure I understood what was happening with my vehicle, what was recommended, and why. There was never any pressure, confusing terminology, or feeling like I was being talked down to. Everything was explained professionally and clearly, which gave me a lot of confidence in the work being done. Dale’s Auto Service really does feel like a women-friendly automotive facility. The staff creates an environment where you can comfortably ask questions and actually receive thoughtful, honest answers. They make something that can normally be stressful feel straightforward and manageable. I also really appreciated how organized and professional the entire shop was. The communication was excellent, the customer service was friendly, and I felt like my vehicle was being taken care of by people who genuinely care about doing the job properly.

Why GMC Shock & Strut Replacement Matters

Your GMC’s shocks and struts are critical for:

  • Stable handling and cornering

  • A smooth, controlled ride

  • Proper tire wear

  • Shorter braking distance

  • Safe towing and hauling

When shocks or struts wear out, your truck may bounce excessively, nose-dive during braking, wander on the highway, or feel unstable—especially under load.

If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, Dale’s Auto Service can help:

  • Excessive bouncing after bumps

  • Clunking or knocking over uneven roads

  • Poor steering stability

  • Uneven tire wear

  • Fluid leaking from shocks/struts

  • Harsh ride or excessive body roll

  • Longer stopping distances

Our mechanics perform full suspension inspections to confirm the issue before recommending repairs—no guesswork, no upsells.

GMC Shock & Strut FAQ

1. How often should GMC truck shocks and struts be replaced?

Most GMC trucks need shocks or struts every 80,000–100,000 km, depending on driving conditions, towing, and load usage. Heavy-duty trucks may require earlier replacement.

2. What are the symptoms of worn shocks or struts on a GMC Sierra or Yukon?

Common signs include bouncing, clunking noises, poor stability, uneven tire wear, and longer stopping distances.

3. Do shocks and struts affect towing performance?

Yes. Worn shocks reduce control when hauling or towing, causing sway, squat, and instability. Replacing them improves safety and handling.

4. Should I get a wheel alignment after replacing shocks or struts?

Yes. GMC suspension geometry changes during replacement. An alignment ensures proper tire wear and stable steering.

5. How long does GMC shock or strut replacement take?

Most replacements take 1–3 hours, depending on model design, rust, and whether alignment is required.
