How often should I replace my brake pads?

Brake pads typically last between 40,000–80,000 km, depending on driving style and conditions. We recommend a brake inspection every 12 months or 20,000 km.

What are signs my brakes need service?

Watch for squeaking, grinding, vibration during braking, longer stopping distances, or a soft pedal. These all signal it's time for professional inspection.

Can you service my electronic parking brake?

Yes, we have the latest tools to diagnose and service modern Acura electronic brake systems.

Do you use OEM parts for brake repair?

We use OEM or high-quality aftermarket parts that meet or exceed Acura’s performance and safety standards.

Is Dale’s Auto Service better than the dealership?

Absolutely. We offer personalized care, competitive pricing, and no upselling — all without compromising quality or warranty coverage.

  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.

Frequently Asked Brake Service Questions

Q1: How often should Land Rover brake pads be replaced?
A: Many drivers see 40,000–70,000 km, but it varies with driving style, routes, and towing. We measure pad/rotor thickness and give you an honest timeframe.

Q2: My brake warning light came on — is it safe to drive?
A: The light can mean low fluid or a system fault. Low fluid often results from pad wear. Stop by for a quick inspection to stay safe and avoid damage.

Q3: Do you service all makes and models or just Land Rover?
A: We service all makes and models. You’ll get the same expert process and warranty, whether it’s a Land Rover, BMW, Toyota, or a family van.

Q4: How long does a typical brake job take?
A: Many pad/rotor services finish the same day. ABS/EPB issues or corrosion can add time — we’ll confirm a clear ETA after inspection.

Q5: OEM vs aftermarket — which should I choose?
A: We offer OE-equivalent and premium upgrades. We’ll match your needs (quiet, low dust, towing, performance) and explain cost, feel, and longevity.

Disk Brake Service

A disc brake is a type of brake that uses calipers to squeeze pairs of pads against a disc in order to create friction that slows the rotation of the wheel(s)….more

Drum Brake Service

The drum brake may look complicated, and it can be pretty intimidating when you open one up. Let’s break it down and explain what each piece does.

Like the disc brake, the drum brake has two brake shoes and a piston. But the drum brake also has an adjuster mechanism, an emergency brake mechanism and lots of springs…more

Brake Fluid Flush

Brake fluid is possibly the single most neglected component of the automobile.

Most high performance drivers check their tire pressures and change their engine oil at frequent intervals, but virtually no one ever changes the brake fluid in their street car.

Brake fluid will not be able to handle the heat when it is contaminated…more

Abs diagnostic service dales auto service

ABS/STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM

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

Failing to properly repair these systems can put the driver at risk, especially in vehicles with a high center of gravity.

If the ABS light is on, request diagnostic time to identify and resolve the issue…more
