  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.

  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.

JEEP Suspension Service FAQ

1) What causes loose steering in my Jeep?

Common causes include worn tie rods, track bar, ball joints, control arm bushings, or steering linkage components—especially with larger tires or lifted suspension setups.

2) Do I need an alignment after steering or suspension work?

Yes. Any change to steering/suspension parts can affect alignment angles. An alignment helps prevent tire wear and improves stability and handling.

3) Why does my Jeep clunk when going over bumps?

Clunks are often caused by worn sway bar links/bushings, control arm bushings, ball joints, or loose steering components. A proper inspection is the fastest way to pinpoint it.

4) What’s the difference between shocks/struts and steering components?

Shocks/struts control ride and bounce; steering components control direction and stability. Problems can feel similar, so a diagnostic inspection matters.

5) My Jeep shakes at speed—could it be suspension or tires?

It can be either (or both). Tire balance, tire wear, wheel bearings, and worn front-end parts can all cause vibration. We’ll identify the true source before recommending repairs.
