I was ready to let the car go after 3 decades of reliable use. After they (BG) diagnosed several issues, I approved repairs and parts replacement. MY CAR IS DRIVING AGAIN AS IF IT IS CLOSE TO BRAND NEW. My wife is astonished, so am I. 95% of the vibrations are gone. Big thank you to Brandon who coordinated the entire process and to technician Christian who did most of the repair work. Toby also provided detailed information of many of the car's issues. I particularly like that BG provides photo and video documentation with the initial diagnosis and after new parts are replaced. Excellent use of technology! Yes, I highly recommend Buellton Garage.

If you're car shopping and want someone who actually feels like a human being instead of a walking…read moresales script, ask for Ruben at Rio Vista Chevrolet in Buellton. We met Ruben early on while just doing some preliminary shopping, and he immediately stood out. He's incredibly thoughtful, genuinely knowledgeable, and just easy to talk to. No pressure, no weird sales tactics, no "let me go talk to my manager" theatrics every five minutes. Just a real, down-to-earth guy who knows his stuff and respects your process. What we appreciated most is that he listened. He didn't try to steer us into something we didn't want or rush us into a decision. He answered questions honestly, gave helpful insight, and made the whole experience feel comfortable instead of stressful. In a world where car buying can feel like navigating a maze with hidden traps, Ruben is the straight path. If you want a smooth, no-nonsense experience with someone you can actually trust, he's your guy.

For warrantee and service work we have, over the years, taken our 2012 Ford E-350 Super Duty…read moreEconoline based camper van to our local Buellton Ford dealer, Vreeland Ford, to accomplish. Recently the driver side rear wheel would get "too hot to touch" after driving at 65 mile per hour. We took the van to our local "go to" Ford fixer dealer. On 12 May 2022 the Service Department accepted our van; for them to find the reason for the problem and put the cost of that toward the actual repair. Since the van was there, we added an engine oil change and their multipoint inspection to the service order. After two days of not hearing anything, we called the Service Department and find that they decided that they could not work on our van because it was a camper; with tanks and things hanging off the bottom of the van. Nothing had been done. Not even the oil change. Words that we never expected to hear from our "can do" Ford dealer. As mentioned, this same van has had warrantee work and service performed over the past years at the local Vreeland Ford dealer and there was not word one about it being a camper; and that being a problem for them. And it was the same camper van that we brought to our local Vreeland Ford dealer to fix this time. This was a lonely feeling; Ford could not fix our Ford van. Fortunately, a local auto repair shop could. Valley Automotive, 1.3 road miles from Vreeland Ford, took apart our vehicle's suspect parts without any whining and gave us great explanations about what they found. They repaired our Econoline Van without one word about it being a camper; or that being a camper was a problem. It looks like Ford Service told us an untruth about the camper being a problem; or they did not know how to fix our Ford. Thank You Very Much Jim, Mark, and Paul - Chuck & Vickie Sorensen

He knows cars, he's honest, and he is extremely kind. As a single older female who knows nothing about cars, I need a mechanic I can truly trust. I can assure you that he is completely trustworthy, and an incredible mechanic. And I might add, his entire staff is unbelievably kind and helpful! I have had a variety of services over the years. From the basic oil change to a rat chewing the wires in my engine. Dead batteries, another rat chewing holes in my air filter. The list goes on. But, I have always known that whatever problem presented itself, John and his team would fix the problem in a timely manner, at a fair price, and with a knowledge that if the problem was not fixed, he would make it right. I cannot say enough about the service I have received there. You will not be disappointed!!!
