By far the best automotive shop in the entire Northeast Colorado area! I drive from Thornton just to get my oil changed, because they are incredible and stand behind everything that they do. When my SUV was under warranty, it was at the dealership all of the time because they couldn't figure out what was wrong with it. As soon as it was out of warranty I took it to BAV and they fixed it easily, that was 3 years ago and it's been great ever since. They have great service, are very knowledgeable and are well worth the drive if you don't live close. If you take your car there once, you'll never want to go anywhere else again. read more

I've been coming here for a few years and they always provide great service with excellent rates. I completely trust their opinions, especially when they've told me when I DON'T need work I anticipated. Honest and friendly staff - you and your car will be happy here. read more

As our small RV was traveling through, we needed some critical maintenance and a detective works. After two popular local garages already booked (one was booked up for over a week; and other, didn't want to deal with RV), Michael there booked us first thing tomorrow morning. Best of all, my wife kept hinting exhaust smell coming in through ventilation. Past mechanics thought she was nuts. Michael's top mechanic located and repaired a small crack under and deep bowel area of a diesel engine. I was awed and my wife, sanely cheered on! Thus, without reservation, I am posting a ringing recommendation here. Thanks again BVA folks! read more

This shop is TRULY remarkable. I had a friend in Boulder, Colorado who was in desperate need of assistance and Curtis, the Service Manager came through with flying colors. HIGHLY recommend this shop and personally thank Curtis for the helping hand. read more

My son (Buff student) has been there twice, once for a repair and once for new tires. This is as good as it gets for service, advice, honesty and responsiveness. He's moving to Denver after grad but will ALWAYS make the drive to Boulder to see Curtis for repair. You guys should be so proud of the business you've built, the reviews speak for themselves. read more

Honest service with great workmanship and skilled mechanics. It's always a challenge to find a car mechanic who does great work and you can trust. Your search will stop here! read more

Made an appointment for my 1991 Ford Ranger here when the check engine light was on and I was having trouble with it. They ran diagnostics, found the problem, and fixed it all within a couple of days. Everyone I encountered there was very friendly and nice, and willing to explain everything to me. Truck is running great now, and if I have trouble with it again I will definitely be taking it back to Boulder Valley Automotive! read more

I cannot say enough good things about these guys. They are always honest and reliable and really go above and beyond. I had an old car that was constantly having problems so my car was in the shop every single week and now they know me pretty well. Luckily I have a newer car now and I only see them for oil changes and minor things but I'll never go anywhere else. I don't know a lot about cars and I hate how some mechanics take advantage of that and will overcharge or insist upon totally unnecessary work and I'm so lucky that I never have to worry about that with BVA. Also their prices are always MORE than reasonable and they've been known to throw in a free oil change or discount labor costs. Today I was at the dog park and someone locked her keys in her car with the dog. If that wasn't bad enough, the dog had tried to jump the fence earlier and had gotten his ear caught so he was bleeding all over her car. I called boulder valley automotive (because I still have them on speed dial from my old car days) and asked if they knew of anyone near there who had a metal coat hanger and Curtis drove right over within 5 minutes and unlocked the car for free. I could go on for days about stories like this about all the extra stuff they've done for me, my friends, and family that go above and beyond. I've been going to BVA for 3 or 4 years now and it's honestly like having a friend that's a mechanic in your corner. This is THE place to go for automotive repairs. read more

Curtis went above and beyond to work with us and our insurance company to get our son's car repaired expeditiously so our son could get back home to Minnesota. He was stranded when the car suffered front suspension damage after an encounter with an icy parking lot. Curtis and crew even stayed late on a Friday to get it all buttoned up. These guys are simply the best and highly recommended! read more

I am a young single woman that does not have a lot of knowledge about cars. The mechanics were very patient with me and fit me in last min when I was trying to buy a car from a dealership and had Boulder Valley check the cars out. They never made me feel stupid or tried to take advantage of me because I was a female. They go above and beyond making sure their clients have rides when their stuck without a vehicle. Mike at the front desk was incredible!! He was so patient, kind and helpful to me and my many many questions and concerns! I am not taking my car anywhere else and will tell everyone I know about how wonderful this company is! Plus their prices are very reasonable! Thanks for doing the car industry some well justice they deserve with customer service and all around great business read more

Best place in town. Completely trust worthy, don't ever feel like they are taking me to the cleaners. Super quick, flexible, and pleasure to work with. It's not wonder they have a perfect score on Yelp and google. They deserve it. read more

There's a reason why these guys have the best rating on Yelp! They're friendly, straightforward and let you know exactly what needs to happen to get you back on the road. An added bonus? The guys in the shop have a rockin' playlist that kept me entertained the entire time I was working from the lobby. Will definitely recommend to friends! read more

I've lived in several states and communities. And this garage, is by far, the best there is. The courtesy, care and kindness by which they do business, is far and above better than what I have ever experienced. They professionally and expertly fix my car, keep me informed, do it in a timely manner and care for me as a client as well. It's always a pleasure to walk into their office and chat with Curtis and Mike, - they do what they can to respect my time line and do whatever they can to err on the side of the customer! They are solid guys and do excellent work. I would recommend them over and over again. Thanks you guys, you are the best of the best in the business and not to shabby when it comes to having nice neighbors and good people in the community. :) - Debra C. read more

Fantastic service! I called them from out of state to see about having my college daughter's car looked at for an electrical problem. they said it would be a $90 fee to do the diagnostic as electrical problems can be tricky to diagnose. When she brought it in today, they were able to quickly find a blown fuse and they did not even charge her for the fix! She described them as polite and friendly and I had the same experience with them on the phone. Very pleased to see that this is not a repair shop that takes advantage of younger people who have less knowledge about car repairs! read more

Amazing business! Went in for a little oil change and what I thought would be a quick electrical issue fix...and they found out that my 16 yr old Jeep's brake line was so rusted it was leaking oil! My brakes could go at any moment. The mechanic in New York I used in October failed to mention/discover the issue, so I drove across country to move to Colorado in apparently very unsafe conditions. These guys literally saved my life! It took a long time for the parts to come (not their fault--it is an old car/hard to get things for + it was the holidays so everything was delayed), but they were great at communicating and were very fair on prices/by far cheaper than the other 5-6 places I called around and got quotes from. The owner even called me and let me know one of his guys accidentally overcharged me $97 for a part...he could have easily gotten away with not doing that! Venmoed me the cash. They also got the Jeep dealer to overnight freight a part for free after the New Year because it was taking so long. They definitely stood up for me! Thank you Curtis, Mike and crew. I have used the same mechanic for 15 years and was worried about finding the right fit in CO. Now that I live here I'll definitely be returning! read more

My driver side window motor died on a Friday afternoon when rain was on it's way. The window was rolled completely down and I was panicked trying to find a place to fix it before the weekend since I do not have a garage. BVA was able to order the part and fix my car for a reasonable cost before 5pm, even when I called at 1pm that same day. Amazing!! read more

Curtis is AWESOME!!!! I had my daughters car towed there and met the tow truck. I had called BVA that morning, having never had to use a shop in Boulder I spoke with Curtis. He immediately earned my business. Always a little frighting being a woman and not knowing much about cars. What I thought might have been catastrophic (transmission) was a simple fuse! HIGHLY recommend BVA. Thank you Curtis!!! read more

Billy and Curtis are great to work with when it comes to finding a cost effective solution to keeping my cars serviced and on the road. Curtis and his team in Boulder put tires on my wifes car in record time at a price that was far better than any shop in Colorado. My wife and I will keep going back and would recommend their services to anyone! Thanks BVA! read more

So my tire took a straight up lance to the heart, in the middle of the desert. I dragged it to these guys, and within ten seconds I got some sad news--'There's nothing we can do for her,' the man said. But then some other guy--some mad scientist--walks up, and says, 'But we'll give it a try.' I come back four hours later and it's had some serious work done, like it's looking strongly like a Joan Rivers situation. But you can't drive on a Joan, right, and this is a very professional man, he told me just as much. So I asked him how much I owed him for his troubles, hand e said, 'For that, nothing.' Whatever Joan paid, it was too much. Highly recommend. read more

Absolutely the worst excuse for a mechanic or business owner I've ever had to deal with. I was referred by a family member whose known Bill since childhood and was billed for work BVA never performed, not to mention the fact they had my vehicle for over a year!!! I have no choice but to report them to the BBB as I have tried numerous times to pay them for the actual work they did and have the bill adjusted accordingly. Bill was rash and childish when confronted over the phone. Steer clear of BVA there are many accredited, certified mechanics out there who act as professionals BVA is certainly not one of them, based on my experience. read more

I have a very high degree trust of BVA. They are honest, explain what needs to be done, what can wait, and their prices are very fair. They do a great job at honest prices. read more

These are the most professional auto mechanics I have worked with in Boulder. They genuinely care about their clients' pocketbooks and don't recommend unnecessary repairs, only the ones you need. I will be back to Boulder Valley Automotive for my next automobile repair. Just talk to Billy or Curtis. read more

Absolute best auto repair experience I have ever had! These guys are honest and the rates are fantastic, especially for the level of service and repairs. They really busted their asses to fix a very cumbersome repair I needed with a exhaust manifold/turbo on my Volvo. Thy could have easily just replaced the whole unit, which would have cost me more in the end. But they stuck with the more affordable route, even though it caused them a lot more headaches! These guys are IT for proper auto repairs! read more

This place is NOT CLOSED. I was there today. I love this repair shop. They are so great to deal with - completely honest, expert, and looking out for you more than their bottom line. They keep my daughter's old Subaru Forrester running. They are thorough in looking over the car every time we bring it to them, they are honest about what might be urgent to address and what can wait, and they always offer cheaper workarounds to keep stuff running without spending a fortune on it. read more

I went to the collision place next door and they said they couldn't even look at my car for 2 weeks. I walked into Boulder Valley Automotive hoping they could help sooner and they fixed my bumper in less than 10 minutes with no charge. Incredibly good customer service and great staff. I will be back for repairs/ maintenance in the future! read more

if there were more stars i'd check them all!!! Curtis and Mike are awesome! they are honest and kind! 2 words not often found in automotive repair. i checked with 4 places before going with them. Sooo glad i found them! no need to look elsewhere. read more

This auto repair service ripped us off and did not fix what they were supposed to as the estimate stated. They were supposed to change a timing belt and water pump and instead decided not to change the water pump at all on their own whim. Then they let me know that the car was good to drive and everything looked done and repaired and I was able to drive it home. The next day I heard a noise coming from my engine and took it back in. The "Manager" stated that the rear belt is faulty and needs to be repaired ASAP because it is dangerous to drive. All so that he can charge me AGAIN for service when initially he told me they will look at everything and take care of it. He replaced a rear belt that was not faulty then instead (the one that was easy to get to).... I had to pay for that anyway and they did not honor a customer's word and instead tried to protect their employee who miscommunicated everything from the start. Bad business in my opinion if a service is only trying to make a buck and not be honest and loyal to their customer. I don't know if they were discriminating against me or thought they could rip me off because of their own racist reasons but it was horrible dealing with them because they did not care at all about customer service. When an employee is wrong, do not try to cover up for him. It's bad business practice. read more

I was in Boulder for a few days visiting family and the batteries on my Ford 1 ton diesel died on me suddenly. While waiting for the roadside assistance wrecker to come get me started I had time to consult Yelp (good ol Yelp - can't do without it now) to find a repair shop that might have a pair of batteries the right size. At first I couldn't believe the 100% five-star ratings given by EVERY reviewer of Boulder Valley Automotive; I figured they must have all their friends and relatives writing for them. But I was pleasantly surprised. They got me in immediately and replaced the batteries and a faulty cable in less time than it took me to eat a quick breakfast at the nearby cafe. Here's the best part: The technician checked out everything else beneath the hood while he was under there, and he found reservoir cap that was about to go bad. They didn't have any in stock, and instead of charging me more labor and making me wait for the part to be delivered, they directed me to the nearest NAPA. I'm on my way to TX now and this little extra bit of concern for the customer probably saved me a breakdown in the Middle Of Nowhere Oklahoma Panhandle. THANK YOU Boulder Valley Automotive! read more
