Consumer Comments for Weatherford BMW

Extremely expensive and very high labor costs. Always find something more that needs repair. Don't use them once you're out of warrantee.

Consumer from El Cerrito, CA
Mar 28, 2023

I appreciate the individuals I work with and the experts doing the work at Weatherford--they always seem great and the car feels like it's in great shape because of them. I definitely dislike needing to spend ~$1k+/year to maintain the car and pay what feels like a lot more on top of it for bigger wear and tear items, yet it feels like there's a risk to go elsewhere due to all of the automatic alarms/lights/manufacturer-recommended items (and the convenience of going to a dealer and sometimes getting a loaner car to drive).

The rates are high, but they are the closest certified BMW repair shop.
