Comprehensive Brake Service for All Vehicles
Brake Inspections & Diagnostics
Our Red Seal mechanics perform complete brake system inspections using advanced diagnostic tools. We identify noise, vibration, pulling, uneven wear, or safety concerns before they become expensive repairs.
Brake Pads, Shoes & Rotor Replacement
We install high-quality pads and rotors designed for your vehicle. Whether you’re dealing with grinding, squealing, or reduced stopping power, we ensure proper fit, performance, and longevity.
Brake Fluid Flush & ABS Service
Modern vehicles rely on clean hydraulic brake fluid and properly calibrated ABS systems. Our team services ABS modules, sensors, and performs fluid exchanges for improved safety and pedal feel.
EV Brake Service & Regenerative System Care
Electric vehicles use regenerative braking, which changes wear patterns and service requirements. Our technicians are trained to properly service EV braking systems, calipers, and corrosion issues from low-usage pads.
Performance Brake Upgrades
For drivers wanting more stopping power, we offer upgrades including high-performance pads, slotted/drilled rotors, and heavy-duty components ideal for towing or mountain driving.
When it comes to safety, we won’t steer you wrong.

Brake Service FAQ
1. How often should I get my brakes checked?
We recommend a full brake inspection every 12,000 km or once per year. EVs may require more frequent corrosion checks.
2. What are signs I need brake service?
Squealing, grinding, vibration, pulling, a soft pedal, or longer stopping distance are common warning signs.
3. Do you service electric and hybrid vehicle brakes?
Yes. We are EV-friendly and trained to diagnose and repair regenerative brake systems and corrosion-related issues.
4. How long does a brake job take?
Most brake pad and rotor services are completed the same day depending on parts availability and inspection findings.
5. Will servicing my brakes void my warranty?
No. All maintenance at Dale’s Auto Service is warranty-approved for all makes and models.

Drum Brake Service

Most vehicles come standard with ABS and some level of traction control, while others include optional stability and roll-over mitigation systems.
