My dealer was super easy. Drop off the original invoice for the repair. They take the mileage off the car. and that is all! They also pay for the towing! Dont forget that invoice!

Cheers

I currently am not experiencing any brake issues so that’s why I asked. I don’t think they will just change everything if I have no issues. If anyone knows otherwise that would be helpful.

They will only replace the SBC if it's bad. Since you have no issues they won't replace it.
