Be very careful! I continue to find issues with the truck I bought from them. Make sure you go thru it with a “ fine tooth comb”. Unbelievable! My bad I bought it site unseen trusting them. Thought they would be reputable

I recently planned to buy a car from ACB and stopped by to see it. The car was just as promised, clean, well cared for inside and out. I met with the owner Stu who is a no pressure open owner. Met briefly with his finance lead Mike, also a super dude. I left thinking I was going to buy the vehicle we had a great deal arranged. I decided in the end not to pull the trigger and buy as I decided to pause on the type of vehicle I was looking at, my concern was the reliability of the model year, nothing ACB could of done differently, purely my decision Stu, Mike, and the ACB team gives used car sales a fresh reprieve. No nonsense, no hidden fees or underhanded antics, I will absolutely stay in touch with them should I get off the pause button for the vehicle I was considering. The cars are clean, the prices are fair, and their processes are straightforward. All the best.

Excellent. Stu opened his shop ca. 1996, very straight shooter. Sold him a 2015 Honda Fit EX-L at a very fair price.

If you’re seeking a dealership you can actually trust, this is the place. For my future vehicle purchase I am definitely coming here first. Thank you Mike in Finance!

I stopped by to look and test drive a car that I was looking for. I worked and communicated with Stu during my visit. I really don't enjoy the car-buying process at all just because I don't have the patience to do the whole "sales" dance dealerships typically do, so I try to look for dealerships with less aggressive salespeople. I found Stu comfortable to speak with and felt like he listened to what I wanted and thought. He did not try and sell me a different car than the one I wanted. When I asked to test-drive it, he promptly pulled it up front and handed me the key, no problem. I took it out and examined it for almost an hour. When I got back, he asked what I thought, and I told him I wanted to get it barring an inspection. Stu had zero issues with my request, and I told him about me not living in the area. He was willing to deliver the car to a mechanic of my choosing just as long as it wasn't anywhere reasonably far, and I completely understand that. I decided on a mechanic nearby and gave the mechanic Stu's information. Stu managed to get the car to the mechanic on the appointment time, and I was able to have the inspection results later that day. I did not end up getting the vehicle due to inspection results. Truth be told, I felt really bad because I really wanted Stu to be my salesman, and I really wanted that specific car. Thank you, Stu, for being a pleasure to work with, and thank you for being reliable!

I bought a $3000 warranty on an older Honda Odyssey because I didn't want to worry about any major problems. He told me, " oh yeah, best warranty we have... covers everything... totally worth $3k." The first time I need to use it for an O2 sensor replacement, they tell me that it doesn't cover it. I don't know how people like this sleep at night knowing that they spend all day lying to people for a living. Scumbags.

Auto Connections of Bellevue is my go to place when I'm looking for a car, or any family member or friend too. Between my wife and I and our kids we've bought or leased over 10 cars over the last 20+ years. I always check with Auto Connections whenever any of us are in the market for a new car. They've always treated us fairly and you don't have that slimy feeling you often get when buying a car from a traditional car dealer. You know, where you walk away not sure if you were just robbed or not. I've never felt that way when dealing with Auto Connections. They're honest, trustworthy and go above and beyond to make sure you're getting what you want. I can't recommend them highly enough. Do youself a favor and look at their inventory or talk to them and you won't be disappointed.

I tried to sell my car this morning at Benz dealer in Seattle because I thought I was going to get a better deal since I bought my car from them, they’ve done all the maintenance and know my car but they offered me $31400. They said if I get an offer in writing they could beat it by $250. I went Bellevue Nissan they offered me $33,000, and my final stop Auto Connections at Bellevue offered me $34,000 and a whole process went so smoothly. While I worked with Auto Connections, Benz texted me again to remind me about $250 deal but I refused. I don’t like the way they do business - trying to steal $ from me and other dealer?? In the other hand, Auto Connection has a truthful work ethic. I worked with Kurt and I was very happy with him - no need to waste my time back and forth. I bought 3 benz and two of them from Benz in Seattle but I know now where to go/deal to buy/sell my car. I strongly recommend this truthful dealer to all my friends and family.On top of it, Kurt also reserved/paid Uber for me and checked with me if I get home safely. It was just so amazing…What a nice surprise!$250 is not worthy to betray for the truthful dealer like Auto Connections.Wow, I never wrote the review this long in my life :)Best wishes!

Have purchased two cars from Auto Connections and really like the people there. I mostly work with Frank and his son Mike, but have talked to Keith and Stu previously.Recently purchased a Subaru that exhibited some slight steering issues during the test drive. After being assured that it was normal, we finalized the purchase. Brought it back a few days later after the issue got worse and after some back and forth, they ended up paying for the needed repairs. Wish the post-purchase process went a little smoother but these are used cars after all and I did not get a pre-purchase inspection which would have found the issue and made it easier to negotiate prior to purchase. My bad. My advice is to get an independent mechanic to look over any used car you are thinking of buying just to have as much information as possible about looming or necessary repairs so there's no buyer's remorse or surprise expenses.

Recently purchased a Subaru that exhibited some slight steering issues during the test drive. After being assured that it was normal, we finalized the purchase. Brought it back a few days later after the issue got worse and had the mechanic they use (Auto Dynamix) take a look and they found no issues. I eventually took it to an independent mechanic who showed me that the front axle CV joints were going bad and I had them replaced. After some back and forth, Auto Connections reimbursed me for the repairs. These are used cars after all, but I did not get a pre-purchase inspection which would have found the issue and made it easier to negotiate prior to purchase. My bad.

Good on Auto Connections for making things right! Thanks!

Visited a few dealerships nearby before making it to Auto Connections and Stu greeted me with a very warm welcome. I had found a vehicle online and made an appt. Vehicle was set aside from me and but i knew it was going to be a long shot to get approved. Went on a road test and the vehicle was exceptional and i was very impressed. Stu and Mike worked with me and got the very best deal possible approved with my lender. Stu and Mike were kind and listened to my situation with no pressure and were very efficient. I will visit them again for my next vehicle.Thanks Again Stu & Mike!Luis

I recently bought a Lexus from Auto Connections. The car was as advertised in perfect condition. The price was also very fair. I'm totally happy with the car. I worked with Keith who was very pleasant. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a car.

Smooth as glass. Bought a great car for a great price and shipped to CA. My first out-of-state car transaction, and went as smooth as you could hope for.
