A fully functioning brake system is crucial to your safety, the safety of your passengers, and the safety of other drivers on the road. Your vehicle's brake system involves highly engineered parts and precise movements that stop your vehicle by converting kinetic energy into thermal energy.
When you press down on the brake pedal, the master cylinder pressurizes a system of hydraulic brake lines leading to each of the vehicle's wheels, where brake pads or shoes press against a disc or drum and create the necessary friction needed to slow the vehicle to a complete stop.Over time, this friction and heat has the potential to wear down the brake shoes, brake pads, calipers, brake rotors, and other braking components.

Normally I don't leave reviews but my last experience with Dave has been incredible. My engine blew up and him and Steph went to GREAT lengths to find me a new engine for my Chevy.
After getting my truck back I had a ignition coil go bad while out of town and what Dave did blew me away. Towed my truck and double che ked everything and now my beloved "grandpa truck" runs better honestly then the day I bought it!
Thanks Dave and Steph!!

I bought a used Nissan Xterra about 4 years ago. Over the past year, it began to have an exhaust leak up near the manifold. The catalytic converter was shot. Took it to Dave's Complete and the car runs BETTER than when I bought it. They called me as soon as they had it torn down and diagnosed. Was given a thorough explanation of the problem, the fixes needed, and a rough cost (which was pretty much right on). Received updates on the status of repairs, and a call once it was done. This is gold service. Price was fair. Service was outstanding. I hope I don't have any more major repairs, but they

Stopped in for check engine light (fuel trim system rich). They found the fuel/alcohol ratio was registering at 32% and actual ratio was 10% so they did fuel trim relearn procedure.
Was driving across 6 states. Check engine light came back on but eventually went back off again and truck is running great with no issues.

I took my truck in for a power steering hose they fixed it flushed and refilled it, but I had them check my 4WD because I heard a noise and they said the transfer case motor needed replaced mind you I didn’t have a check 4WD light on and said it’s probably a simple part which I pointed out to what part might not be working and then they call and say different. NOW it won’t even go into 4WD now and says check 4X4 and to top it off when I got my truck back IT SMELLED SO BAD OF CIGARETTES AND FULL OF GREASE ALL OVER MY STEERING WHEEL DOORS CENTER SHIFTER I HAD TO LEAVE AND GO GET IT CLEANED

My daughter's car broke down on the way to Omaha and was towed to Dave's. They quickly found the issue (broken accessory drive belt) and had it fixed within an hour or so of the car coming in - all at a very reasonable price.
They could have put the car into their schedule and got to it in a day or two - but they cared enough to get it done right then; my daughter really appreciated the great service and so did I.
Dave, thanks for getting my daughter's little Hyundai Tiburon back on the road - great job, much appreciated!

I had my truck delivered here one night at 8, had a miscommunication from the tow truck driver and had a little delay. But the guy had already diagnosed the issue and had a damn good price. So I went with it and he had it fixed that very next day. Super polite and won't skin you. Trustworthy group of guys here.

Do not go to these shade tree mechanics!!! I brought my car in to have a few things fixed. First off they left my car outside after I told them I would rather take it home then sit outside over night. They kept ordering the wrong parts so I had to order them myself. Then I get my car back and it's still leaking oil and now overheating at this point so I take it back so they can fix it. Yep again ordered the wrong parts then get it back and they charge me for parts ordered and installed. Well to tell you about a month later I take it to a different shop because it's still overheating. They bypassed

If you need exhaust work done, this isn't the shop you want to go to. I base mechanics by reviews on here or good word of mouth. Dave's shop has 5 stars and were willing to install my previously purchased mufflers so I went to his shop. The welding I received was just horrid. Dave and co saw absolutely nothing wrong with it and said it's good to go. I paid full quoted price of $270 because he refused to take a dime off after having to re-weld what his employee butchered and also had to flip my muffler tips and re-weld them because they were installed upside-down. I can't vouch for their mechanical
