The anti-lock braking system helps prevent wheel lock-up during braking by using sensors and pumps to control brake pressure and keep you safe. If your ABS warning light comes on, it could be a safety issue

We offer a complete car AC & heating system diagnostic and repair service to keep you cool on hot those days.

Belts and hoses wear out over time due to engine stress and should be inspected regularly—especially during coolant changes or cooling system repairs—to keep your vehicle running smoothly.

Brakes are your vehicle’s top safety feature and need expert care. Regular inspections and repairs by skilled technicians keep your brakes reliable and safe on the road.

Your vehicle’s charging system—made up of the battery, starter, and alternator—works together to start your engine and keep all electrical components powered, so regular checks help prevent unexpected breakdowns.

Computer diagnostics connect to your vehicle’s onboard system to quickly identify issues and guide accurate repairs.

A cooling system flush replaces old coolant and checks for leaks to help prevent overheating. It keeps key parts like the radiator, hoses, thermostat, and water pump working properly.



The electrical system in your vehicle powers everything from starting the engine to running lights, sensors, and accessories. It includes key components like the battery, alternator, and starter, all working together to keep your car running smoothly.

Regular fluid flushes keep your vehicle’s cooling, transmission, steering, and brake systems working smoothly and safely. We also check and top off windshield washer fluid to ensure clear visibility in all seasons.

Fuel injection service cleans clogged injectors and carbon deposits to improve fuel flow, boost engine performance, and increase fuel efficiency.

Fuel system cleaning removes carbon buildup from fuel injectors and engine components, improving performance, fuel efficiency, and reducing emissions.

We are proud to be your approved government vehicle inspection facility. We have licensed technicians and expertise to perform pre-purchase, out of province and government CVI, inspections to provide you with a full report on the condition of the vehicle.

Your car’s exhaust system reduces noise and harmful emissions, keeping you safe and protecting air quality. Proper maintenance and repair ensure better performance and safety for everyone.

Regular oil and filter changes are key to keeping your engine healthy and running smoothly. Along with the oil change, a full vehicle inspection helps catch issues early and keep your car safe and reliable.

From routine oil changes to complex repairs, done quickly and professionally so you can hit the road with confidence.

Shocks and struts help control your vehicle’s movement and keep tires on the road for a smooth, safe ride. If you notice bouncing, swaying, or uneven tire wear, it’s time to have them checked.

Your vehicle’s smooth ride depends on the teamwork of steering, suspension, and alignment. Key parts like control arms, coils, leaf springs, and joints work together to manage weight and keep your ride comfortable and safe.

Timing belts synchronize key engine parts, while serpentine belts power engine accessories; both need attention to avoid damage from wear like cracking or slipping.



Tire balancing ensures your tires and wheels spin smoothly by evenly distributing weight. This helps prevent vibrations, uneven wear, and improves overall ride comfort and tire life.

We offer tire and wheel sales plus full services like balancing, flat repair, installation, and rotation, with a wide selection of quality brands for all driving conditions.

Transmission fluid service keeps your transmission running smoothly, prevents damage, and extends its lifespan by removing old, dirty fluid and replacing it with clean fluid.

A tune-up service is a full checkup that keeps your vehicle running safely and efficiently. It includes key maintenance like oil changes, fluid flushes, air filters, brake checks, transmission service, belt and hose inspections, and more—all aimed at improving performance, preventing breakdowns, and extending your vehicle’s life.

Great service. Brakes were squealing, but turned out it was a clip and didn need new brakes. Thank you so much. Highly recommend. Friendly, helpful and professional.
Mike and the team at Budget always looks after us. Fair price and great service each and every time. Been bringing both of our vehicles to Budget since they opened, they will always have our business.
Thanks for taking a look at Peter & Sav's brakes today while on a road trip to Calgary. The timely and friendly service was appreciated, along with the peace of mind knowing that nothing major was going wrong. You could have charged them *something* for your time though. Cheers.
Amazing service. Super friendly and helpful staff. Most affordable place in town.
The cost of replacing rotors and new brake pads was far cheaper here than what another auto mechanic shop quoted me. Mike was honest and straight to the point. You don't feel you're being ripped off! Highly recommended!
Great service. ..very fast and helpful.

I got pads and rotors replaced was told 1 year warranty on parts and labour now pads are worn down and rotors need to be either planed it replaced but they tell me all is fine so I just ignored it went to 3 other brake places for brake check and was told by Canadian tire pads are worn down and need new rotors and another place told me same thing you'd figure they would honour their 1 year warranty on parts and labour they charged me considering I've had to change them 2 times now has now even been a year so where is this so called warranty and was asked to come by and they would look after me so I drove up from Vancouver now the same thing budget is just a scam tell me they would replace for free being it's under warranty but now they want me to pay double bit very impressed so now I will never deal with them again their all scammers to get more money from their customers even tho Im driving around with my new born so they have no consideration for single mothers just out there to scam
Great customer service and my vehicle was in for a new serpentine belt. Done within 3 hours! Thanks so much!
Got oil change and said will charge flat hourly rate and said air filter was also dirty and needed to be changed. Charged another half hour more for labor when it only takes less than 5 minutes to change and oil change was half an hour. So charged me an hour and a half labor for labor that only took half an hour. Never going there again.
