 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have never been to a more thorough and caring auto shop than Bernie’s. I just moved to Seattle a few weeks ago and had some issues with a hard brake pedal at the end of last week. I called the next day and they told me to stop by and they would take a look and try to get me taken care of before the weekend. True to their word, they provided me with helpful and detailed reports of the inspection, recommended repair, and a printout of the components needing repair. They said the work was extensive and required dealership parts and recommended I take my car there and have them confirm diagnostics and complete the repairs. They were beyond kind and didn’t charge me for the inspection, despite how thorough it was, and they even aired up the spare tire in my trunk that I admittedly haven’t thought about in years (and hence why it was low)! They also assisted me with getting my vehicle towed to the dealership. The guy they recommended, Dino (Gus Cooper Towing), was easy to communicate with and super prompt. I was able to leave my keys at Bernie’s and he towed directly from Bernie’s to the dealership within a few hours.

Lastly, the dealership recommended some other service maintenance be performed on my car. I reached out to Bernie’s for a second opinion on necessity and cost. Again, they were super helpful and honest and let me know that the dealership prices were comparable to theirs and while they were happy to do the work, they understood if I wanted the dealership to take care of it. Since my car was already at the dealership, I ended up having them perform all of the work, but I cannot say enough how happy and appreciative I am of the wonderful team at Bernie’s. While I hope to not encounter any more major car issues, I will definitely be going to Bernie’s for all of my future car maintenance needs and recommending them to anyone who needs a good shop. I didn’t see Gus Cooper Towing on Google Maps, but also just want to shout out my experience with them as well and similarly, will happily recommend them to anyone who needs towing services.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The team at Bernie’s is great… just did work on my daughter’s rig to make sure it was running well and safe to drive. They did great research on the model, explained their process and answered all my questions. They are just good, highly competent and caring guys! Go see Bernie’s!

These guys are fantastic- called with car problems dropped my truck off 10 minutes later also told them I had an important deadline in the afternoon- they got me in out and repaired in short order and on my way at a very reasonable price. Highly recommend these folks.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have only good things to say about Bernie’s. I have been taking my car here since I moved to Seattle and was continually impressed by their honesty, communication, friendliness and excellent work. Unfortunately my old car is no longer with us, and my new car is a model they don’t work on. But I cannot recommend this place enough, and will miss the kind people and service I received here!
