Default Do dealerships have power bleeders? Soft pedal after 06+ upgrade in Charlotte,NC

I just got a shop to install 06 base brakes front and rear with stainless steel lines, and now my brake pedal is soft as hell. I am guessing they didn't have a pressure bleeder. Would a dealership have a pressure bleeder?

They should but the amount of money they charge is enough to buy you a Motul bleeder you can keep for life

Yea I ordered the Motive bleeder and attachment... I am just on kind of a tight schedule so if it doesn't get here in time I will take it to the stealership.

Why wouldn't you take it back and make them finish the job? Pressure bleeder or not, your brakes should be the exact same as when you brought it in.

I am getting the feeling they don't have the equipment to do the bleeding properly. Plus the dealer can get it done while I'm at work, this place can't.
