    Seattle to San Francisco
    Masaru K.

    Eric of BavPro was extremely helpful when I emailed him several weeks ago with a long list of questions regarding a possible 2001 BMW Z3 2.5i purchase in the Seattle area. I consider myself a knowledgeable automobile enthusiast but he was able to bring up points about the Z3 which I was unaware of up until that time. I can really appreciate this since it's really difficult to find good people to give you advice and work on your car these days. Anyways, a 833 mile drive later from Seattle to San Francisco, and Eric and the team at BavPro took care of all of those issues during a comprehensive servicing for this 23 year old, one owner gem of a Z3. The car has had a great and colorful previous owner, has good bones and karma, and I wanted to give her my best. BavPro previously serviced my 2018 BMW M2. I live in San Francisco, but take the time and trouble to commute across the Bay Bridge to Berkeley, since it is worth it for my peace of mind for my special-interest automobiles to be looked after by knowledgeable enthusiasts. One of the most often heard comments about Bavarian Professionals is that "they are expensive". In my mind, you get what you pay for and if you are seeking prompt, knowledgeable and exceptional service without excuses, BavPro is the place to go!

    Thank you to everyone that has given a review for this shop! My vehicle had an issue with the fuel pump and I took it in for service. Told them I have an idea of what was the issue but they still checked all the electronics before moving forward with a solution. Their labor and diagnostics are fairly priced. Although it would be nice if they are able to discount AAA members. Not a deal breaker tho. Nino was very nice. I appreciate the amazing service!

    Cleaned, niiicceeee...thanks guys!!!

I purchased a 2012 Jeep Wrangler from this dealership for around $18,000. During the sales process, the staff was very friendly and welcoming to the family. I was told the vehicle came with a 24-month / 24,000-mile powertrain warranty, and I was reassured that if anything went wrong I could bring the vehicle back and it would be taken care of. Unfortunately, my experience after the sale has been the complete opposite. After driving the Jeep only about 2,200 miles, the vehicle broke down and had to be taken to a Jeep dealership for diagnosis. I was then informed that the vehicle needs a major repair to the powertrain wiring harness, which is estimated to cost about $5,000. Despite the fact that this issue involves the powertrain wiring, Berkeley Honda has refused to help with the repair and claims that the issue does not fall under the powertrain warranty. What has been even more frustrating is the lack of communication and accountability. When it was time to sell the vehicle, everyone was very responsive and helpful. But once the problem appeared, that support disappeared. Calls have gone unanswered and emails have been ignored. I have only made three payments on this vehicle before this major issue occurred. Now I'm facing a $5,000 repair bill on a vehicle I just purchased, and I've had to take BART to work while trying to figure out how to afford the repair. At this point I am filing complaints with the California DMV and other consumer protection agencies so the situation can be reviewed. My advice to anyone considering buying a used vehicle from Berkeley Honda: * Have a trusted third-party mechanic inspect the vehicle before purchasing * Carefully review what the warranty actually covers * Do not rely on verbal assurances during the sales process I regret trusting the promises that were made during the purchase. I hope sharing this experience helps other buyers make a more informed decision.
