Bellingham Automotive

Tyler and Derrick at Bellingham Automotive are exceptional. They’ve taken great care of my 7.3L power stroke. In my 15 years of using mechanics, this team is by far the best. Bellingham Automotive made us feel at home. They’ve taken care of us for over the last year now and we will always use them. 10/10

Service was good, and they offer a free shuttle home if you live nearby. The staff were friendly and communicative, and they completed a decent amount of work on my car and returned it quickly. Pricing felt a bit on the higher side for some items. For example, I was quoted $100 for a cabin air filter replacement that cost about $16 to do myself. I initially brought my car in for a clogged sunroof drain, which they fixed. Afterward, I noticed there was still a leak—this time due to a drain tube that had come undone. I’m not sure whether this was caused during the original repair or was just a coincidence, but when I brought it back, it wasn’t treated as a clear comeback repair. I asked about a discount on the second visit and they gave me $50 off, which I appreciated. That said, given how

Not only did they not preform the full 87,000 mile service, but they gave me the okay to drive. When I took it to the dealer to have them further inspect, they said it was NOT recommended to drive and ended up costing $5,600 that could have easily gone to them instead. They also unplugged my steering wheel controls and backup camera which Best Buy hooked back up within 10-15 minutes; something they couldn’t in a day. Never going here again.

Nice people. I called trying to swing an appointment for a pressing matter and at first I was told I'd have to wait until next week but the guy then asked what the problem and since it really wasn't too difficult of a fix to him he said I could drop it off in the morning the next day and they'd look into it for me and see if they could get to it. They did manage to make time for it and we're very good with communicating about prices which I appreciate. Also I didn't realize they have a shuttle service to get you back home. Anyway, super happy with how they worked with me, highly recommend.

I felt well-treated by the company. I submitted an online message and received a call soon after the business opened on its next business day. The establishment appears professionally run, and the reception and waiting areas are inviting. The service I had done, I believe, was a little more expensive than a dealership shop would have charged. (I assume independent shops have lower labor charges.) But I appreciated the time and effort expended on explaining to me what the vehicle inspection revealed, so I think that was a plus. I mentioned what I feared was an issue with the vehicle, and I was happy that they could find nothing wrong (instead of trying to upsell me on something). What’s more, they fielded questions from me about the issue and whether it was a common problem on makes/mode
