I stumbled upon Gurton’s while on the island and needed a tire swap before hitting the highway through the Rockies. They were incredibly accommodating and did the swap right away to help me catch the ferry in time. Despite not having an appointment, they were happy to help me as a walk-in. I cannot thank the folks at Gurton’s enough. Wonderful, wonderful people!

Great guy's. Bought a truck from them couldn't have had a better experience. Went above and beyond to get me the vehicle I needed and were very helpful. No pressure just a lot of help. Will go back again when I need another car. 10 out of 10. 2023 update: Truck has been great. In the market for a used car and where do I look? The place I have had great experiences at Gurtons. Haven't bought yet but will update soon. Great shopping experience this time as well.

Big shout out to Gurton's Garage for everything they did for me yesterday. On my way to work my car started hesitating while driving so I drove straight to the garage and they looked at it right away, ordered the part and had it fixed in almost 2 hours. Ended up being the ignition coil. The mechanics, office staff and manager went above and beyond to help me out. It started out as a very upsetting and stressful situation to feeling total appreciation for their professionalism, very fast service, kindness and understanding. I totally recommend them to look after all your car needs. You won't be disappointed.Service: Engine repair

Thank you to Gurtons Garage. Super accommodating of a time sensitive schedule and budget, had a significant amount of work done on my chevy equinox and was so pleased at the difference of performance on my vehicle. The car wash was a considerate touch. Recommend ?

Gurtons has been incredibly helpful!! I brought my Rx7 into their garage for a variety of services and they have been super friendly and great to work with. Due to the car being very much a “project”, we weren’t able to quite get it going without specialization, but everything that they've done has been great!! They have been able to direct me to the right parts and to others that can do specific services for me that would be out of their range. Pricing was super reasonable and fair for the amount of work and information. I would highly recommend Gurtons and I will absolutely be back!Services: Engine repair

Today we found ourselves stranded in Saanichton area with a dead battery. BCAA dispatched a local towing company (Peninsula) to get us going. They were awesome too, arriving within minutes, and got the vehicle running again. When asked, he referred us to Gurton's so that we could fix our problem permanently before we continued on our journey back up the Island. We pulled into an obviously busy and bustling service garage with all three bays full of cars and mechanics, and a line up of cars outside. This amazing shop was able to source a new battery and install it for us within an hour!!! The shop charge = $20.00. Peace of mind = PricelessService: Auto battery replacement

I bought a used car from them a month ago. Customer service was amazing! Particularly a guy named Jarred went above and beyond to make the buying process easy. A week later something was a bit wonky with the trunk latch and they replaced the part quickly at no cost. Truly awesome local business.Service: General repairs & maintenance

I have a letter from dealership who repaired my brakes/lines which Gurton's failed to do. They charged $448 plus for a brake line repair/replacement, which according to dealer was not done properly. The brakes felt spongey from the time I picked it up, and I let the garage know this. I took the van back about a week later, and they said it had all kinds of problems, but let me drive it away as it was, with leaking brake lines. They even told me to call Sidney Tire, and the person I spoke with there was confused and surprised that Gurton's had said they didn't have the right equipment to take the tire off. Don't tires routinely come off to fix brakes? Gurton's initially denied that the van had been at their shop at all, and they had never seen it, yet we had the bill saying the brake line had been replaced. The dealer could see this was not done. This is not just disappointing, but what I and others who I've consulted consider to be negligent for a garage that is supposedly a "safety" inspection station as well. I don't know if the original Gurton family is still involved in this operation, but your good name is being ruined."Experienced MechanicsTwo of our mechanics have been with us for over 30 years and combined our shop has over 100 years of experience at your disposal. They are dedicated to providing high-quality repairs to keep you safe and happy."Not living up to this and other pledges made on website; I am definitely not happy, and dealership notes my van was NOT SAFE to drive after being at Gurton's."To whom it may concern.This camper van was brought to our dealership for brake repairs. brake lines leaking.It was at another shop in BC and those repairs did not correct the brake concerns.All the brake lines where fabricated and replaced, plus all calipers and rotors.The camper van arrived at this dealership Aug 2/22 and repairs completed Aug the 11th.This unit was unsafe to drive."Service: Brakes

My daughter's car stalled a couple of times at the 4-way stop and each time Gurton's came out to assist. Wonderful charming people to help my daughter out on those two occasions.Service: Vehicle Inspection

My BMW broke down over the weekend back in late July. I called the next Monday for an appointment. They said to get it towed right away but they couldn't promise that they would look at it as they were busy. The car arrived at their garage late morning Monday. I was suprised to get a call from Russ in the early afternoon. He explained clearly what went wrong and what repairs were needed and the costs involved. I had my car back by the end of the day and it has been running better than ever. Outstanding service! I'm one very happy customer.Thank you Russ and your excellent crew.

So my daughter took her car to them as they are local to our area and we believed they would be trustworthy and as a dad was concerned about my daughter getting reliable and honest service. Unfortunately we got anything but. They did several repairs claiming that each one was going to solve the problem. After spending about $1200, my daughters car is still not repaired and they said the problem they think it is, they are not able to reliably test. Being an automotive shop that makes absolutely no sense to me. My daughter is out all that money with no resolution. I would caution anyone relying on this service garage. I’m one disappointed local father. They should be ashamed of taking advantage of a young woman.
