First time needing brakes on my Navigator, where to go?

[Keith Bowen]

Bit of a random question for you all. I've had my Navigator for about three years now and it's been solid, never needed anything major. But the sensor came on yesterday saying the brakes are due, and honestly I have no clue where to take it. I usually just go to the dealer for peace of mind but I know they're going to hit me with some crazy labour charges. The car is heavy and I drive it around town a lot with the family so I don't want to compromise on safety but I also don't want to get ripped off. Was browsing online last night trying to figure out what kind of pads these things take and stumbled across a listing for a Lincoln brake pad replacement garage Dubai that seemed to specialise in American stuff. Has anyone here used a decent independent place for their Lincoln? Just need somewhere that won't scratch up the wheels and actually knows how to reset the electronic parking brake properly without messing up the module.
