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.

Diagnostic Service FAQ

1. Why is my Check Engine Light on?

The Check Engine Light can be triggered by anything from a loose gas cap to major engine or emissions issues. A professional diagnostic scan is required to determine the exact cause.

2. Can I drive with my Check Engine Light on?

Yes, if it’s a solid light. If the light is flashing, stop driving—this indicates a severe misfire that can damage your catalytic converter.

3. How much does a Check Engine Light diagnostic cost?

Pricing depends on the depth of testing required. Dale’s provides upfront pricing before any work begins.

4. Do you service all makes and models?

Yes—Dale’s is fully equipped to diagnose and repair all makes and models, including hybrid and performance vehicles.

5. What if the Check Engine Light comes back after the repair?

We stand behind our work. If the same issue returns, we re-test and assess it right away.

Dealer Warranty

All modern vehicles are equipped with an onboard diagnostic system (OBD-II) that constantly monitors key systems—especially the powertrain, which includes the engine and transmission.

This system ensures your vehicle runs efficiently while minimizing emissions. As fuel economy and emissions technology have become more advanced, your vehicle’s electronics now continuously adjust performance based on driving conditions.

If any readings fall outside of the normal range, the check engine light will turn on. That’s your signal to visit Dale’s Auto Service, where we’ll scan the fault codes, provide a clear estimate, and carry out the necessary repairs to get you safely back on the road.
