Customer Reviews & Stories

Our last Service Center closed and we had to find someone else and decided to try Bourne's. We really like how friendly and helpful the receptionist is and how professional the mechanics are. I had a tough electrical problem with my Ford Focus and they were able to locate and fix it right, where others had failed. We have now started bringing our newer Nissan there and I appreciated the recommendations they gave us on what to take care of in the future with no pressure to fix it now. Thanks.

I have been a patron almost from the beginning f Bourne's. Thirty plus years. I completely trust their service . Rene (owner and manager)sets the standard for all his staff: integrity,pleasantness, competence, customer caring, incredible ability to listen and to make things right.

I could not recommend and business higher.

Thank you Bourne's for being there!

Bournes goes above and beyond to accommodate my schedule and any immediate repair work needed as it arises. Their recommendations are solid, their expertise is top-notch. We highly recommend Bournes, and have been doing to them for 30+ years.

I came in to Bourne's without an appointment to have a flat tire fixed. The tire was shot and I ended up having to replace all four tires. I can't say enough good things about their service. Steve was friendly, helpful and was able to get my vehicle sorted out in a very timely fashion. I will definitely use Bourne's again in the future!

We have found our new go-to mechanics! We just moved to Vermont a couple months ago, having left our auto care family behind in the South. From the minute I walked in the door, the service at Bourne's was solid and friendly. No frills, but lots of competence and straight-talking. Thanks!

Returning home to Boston from a short trip to Montreal my check engine light came on. Unsure of the issue I did not want to risk breaking down with darkness coming and 200 miles to go with my wife and two pre-teen children.

Got off the highway in South Burlington and was lucky enough to see Bourne's Service Center. Drove in and asked for help. The men there were great! They diagnosed the issue in minutes, advised me and sent me home- confident that we'd be ok.

I can't thank them enough for helping us!!! If I ever have the opportunity I hope to repay their kindness.

This place is awesome!! And the people are really nice and know what they are talking about and they don't try to rip you off. they do everything in their power to help you. I'm glad I found this place. I'm from out of state and they made it feel a little bit more like home.

I have been bringing my car for a few years now, after Volkswagen told me I had to replace a cracked water pump. I still haven't had to replace that pump! Knowledgeable, Friendly, and Honest. No need to go anywhere else!

I recently switched my registration over to VT, so I needed an inspection along with several other tune-ups that were long overdue. The folks at Bourne's were extremely friendly and my service was done very quickly - I'd highly recommend using their service, and I look forward to the next time I need something done for my car

I have been coming here for years and recommend this shop to everyone I know. Before finding Bourne's I bounced around from other shops that seemed a little less expensive but consistently told me I needed work that I really didn't need. I've never had that issue here and have always been impressed with the timeliness of the service, the work that has been done, and the price of the repairs and maintenance.

I trust the owner , I trust my mechanic, and I like being known,recognized, and well cared for. My car is older so quality, attentive maintenance is really important. If you’re searching for a good mechanic with solid local reputation, call Bourne’s. Easy access on Shelburne rd, across from Denny’s

They took the time to take me into the garage after looking at my vehicle to teach me what was happening and why. Very pleasant, quick service, good people.
