Not being lying criminals would be a start. Thanks for selling me a vehicle that has put me in thousands of dollars in debt and NOT helping me whatsoever. This has been going on since day 1. GM felt bad and offered me an owners loyalty cert. but I'm so far in cc debt from having to charge rentals every other month that I'm stuck in it, something happened to this vehicle there are weird paint splatters like it was in an accident and it was hidden. Parts keep going bad after being "replaced". I just replaced again parts that blasius claimed they replaced. Blasius won't call back or take it in to look at it themselves. I read more

See all

I just recently bought a 2021 q50 from here and it was the easiest and best experience buying a new vehicle. Muhamed is an incredible and knowledgeable salesmen. Totally check this place out if you're in the market read more

Blasius Of Bristol - Auto Repair Near Me - Bristol, Connecticut

Overall we were very disappointed with Blasius of Bristol in purchasing a 2019 Mazda CX 5. But things started off well. We liked our salesperson, who was friendly, accommodating and patient. The time after the deal was made, however, was when things became problematic. On meeting with the finance manager, we learned that Blasius of Bristol had a policy that, if you didn't finance the car through their lender, they added a $1,000 non - finance charge. We had planned to buy the vehicle outright but, hoping to save some money, agreed to take out an auto loan and pay it off quickly. But when we expressed concern about how much interest (vs principal) we would pay at the beginning of the loan, we were assured that this would not be a problem. We were told that an auto loan, and I quote: "...is nothing like a home loan." According to them, by far most of the total monthly payment would go toward the principal. However we soon learned that auto loans are very much like home mortgages, very heavily skewed toward the interest part of the payment, with very little going to principal, toward actually paying off the loan. We know what they told us. Both my wife and I heard it. So despite their denials about what they said they told us, we feel that we were misled by their false reassurances. Another unsavory experience took place around the purchase of an extended warranty. The sales manager initially quoted us a price of $2,900. We declined, but they soon slipped in that "maybe" we could take advantage of their own "employee discount" and get the warranty for only $1,900. The price was better, of course, but the technique of first trying to gauge us for a higher price, then dramatically lowering it in hopes of salvaging a sale - rather than just offering us a fair deal up front, was, to put it generously, distasteful. Sadly, from then on, we knew that we were in the hands of a stereotypical used car salesperson. There were more "shenanigans" that they tried regarding our efforts to cancel the policy within the window of rescission, but I won't go into them. All of the above notwithstanding, our main problem with Blasius of Bristol is simply that they sold us a defective and poorly prepared car, a car that, from the moment we owned it, has never been right. In the beginning the ABS light was flashing, an obvious safety issue. Blasius of Bristol couldn't fix it and so we had to arrange, ourselves, to bring it to a Mazda dealer. There, the repair team was surprised to discover badly worn engine belts, that had either been overlooked or deliberately passed over by Blasius of Bristol. Again, our safety was threatened. Then, within days of receiving the car back we discovered that our transmission was making a "chirping" noise upon upshifting. To be honest, it may have been "chirping" when we drove the car off the lot in the beginning, but we weren't used to the sounds a "new to us" car might produce. Once again we had to make arrangements to return the vehicle to the Mazda dealership. Mazda quickly determined that it needed a complete transmission replacement. In response to our complaints Blasius of Bristol has issued the "boiler plate" reasoning that all cars have problems, many of which cannot be foreseen. While this is true to a point, they cannot explain away the fact that our car was defective from the start, was not properly prepped for sale and from August 9, 2023 to present (October 20, 2023) has been un-drivable. We were very fortunate that the car still had time left on its power train warranty and that the Mazda dealer generosity provided us with a loaner vehicle. However this does not take away from the multiple negative experiences we had with Blasius of Bristol or from the fact that they sold a defective to us. Please be cautious when you anticipate buying a vehicle from Blasius of Bristol. Have the car you're interested in pre-inspected by someone you trust. Be aware, in the event that you want an extended warranty, that the first price you will be quoted may, as in our case, be quite inflated, in the hopes that you might "fall for it". Needless to say, we would not buy a COCA COLA, from Blasius of Bristol, let alone another vehicle. If you do proceed with them, please do so very carefully. BUYER BEWARE! read more

Go see Tessa and she will find your dream vehicle like she did mine! Very helpful, knowledgeable and professional along with being pretty and cool so I guess that makes her "pretty cool" :-) but she went to bat for me and was there for the whole process getting me into the vehicle that I wanted and needed. I would go back again each and every time I need a vehicle! David, the manager also was very good in getting me the vehicle delivered to me without the usual back-and-forth nonsense that most other dealerships like to do. read more

i bought a used 2015 bmw i8 from this dealership on march 11 2024, on march 15 2024 a drivetrain malfunction light came on, upon further review the car was sold to me with 24 total faults, and a bmw dealership quoted me for over $5k worth of repairs. i was told the car had no problems they also added $1750 to my service contract and when i found it and called them out, they claimed "it was a mathmatical error" and they would cut me a check. Everytime i call to get an update or remediation for the car repairs...The manager Jim hangs up on me. Eventhough the car was sold "as is", state law in ct requires used "as is" vechicles to have no issues within the first few weeks. Not to mention they defenitly knew about these problems, because the sales associate said they scanned the car before i bought it, but then the manager claimed they dont scan cars they sell unless a light is on. BMW has also confirmes these codes appeares to be active as faults before i bought it. read more

Honestly, buying my car from this dealership has been a nightmare and I'm still dealing with it almost a year later. I bought a Jeep Grand Cherokee March 2023. The screen wasn't working also the heated seats and heated steering wheel. They stated they would fix all of this thinking it was related to the screen. I didn't think it was a big deal. I brought my car into their main store in Waterbury in April my car was there until July for just the screen issue. When I finally got my car back the screen was fixed but the heated seats and heated steering wheel STILL DIDN'T WORK! AND the check engine light was on at this point. So I called Brian (salesperson) immediately. He asked who my local Jeep dealer was so he could call and get me an appointment, which he never did I ended up having to do it because winter was coming and I wanted it fixed. I wasn't able to remote start the car with the CEL. Also filling up the gas it would click off unless held a certain way. At that point I wanted to sell them back the car so I could get them a new one which they said they could only give me some of the money I was still going to be $8k-$10k on negative equity. For a car I only drove for about a month before going in the shop from April to July. Brought the car to Gengras extended warranty declined paying so I called Blasius and Gengras also called and was given the run around for weeks. At one point they tried to put the blame on me for bringing my car to Gengras until I read back the texts between Brian and I where he told me to go to my local Jeep dealer. Finally I showed up with my dad where they agreed to pay for it but only ended up paying the diagnostic for heated seats and heated steering wheel, not the CEL or gas issue. I had to pay the diagnostic out of pocket. And again heated seats and heated steering wheel STILL AREN'T FIXED! Now today May 2024 a year later I get a letter in the DMV for late emissions fee. I call to see why this is being I got the car last year and it should've went through this already. I was told that the car failed emissions in February 2023 was supposed to get fixed and tested again by April 2023. They sold me the car in March 2023. So they sold me a car that failed emissions one of the things being the fuel system which I paid to have fixed. I went to address these issues they were very nonchalant and basically told me there wasn't much they can do if it failed again. So long story short TERRIBLE I wouldn't recommend if I could give negative stars I would. read more

This by far is the best buying car experience I have had. Pashke was personable, professional and not pushy at all. I financed with them and their finance manager was thorough, made the process easy. They made sure that the car was top notch before I left with it!!!! I would recommend coming here if you want to deal with honest and trustworthy people. Every employee I encountered was kind, helpful and made the experience awesome!!! I will certainly be telling friends and family about this dealership. read more
