Every mechanic wants your business, but it was especially telling of Chuck’s character that his honest opinion was that he couldn’t see anything wrong with our campervan, despite going for a ride along with us, and attempting to recreate the mystery symptoms. He was genuine and professional and gave us some educated guesses but didn’t push us into unnecessarily throwing parts and money at it. I was very grateful that he took time out of his busy Friday to help us, even though we had no appointment. His character is respectful and helpful in nature. Great vibes throughout the entire experience.

Had a whole engine replaced. (Not talked into it, car 25 y/o, 270K original miles on engine, but otherwise all in beautiful condition.) One year & several thousand miles later, still runs like new & N E V E R had to go back for any problem since. Fixed perfectly 1st time. Many other mechanics changing a single part, I found myself going back 2nd time next day or shortly after to refix same problem. He did head gaskets on wife’s car long ago & never a problem. This is ‘my’ car guy.

This was my first transmission rebuild Ive ever had to deal with. I started by doing a lot of research online and after calling around for quotes and reading lots of reviews online, I chose Bush Gator. I worked very closely with Liza Bush from the first quote on the phone to the very end of the process. She is a true professional and has a great attitude. Liza was able to work with me to get a price we were both comfortable with and a fantastic warranty.I worked with Troy who did the repair and was able to take the car for a test drive before any work was done to confirm my suspicions of a failing transmission on my Acura. Troy was able to explain to me the expected job very professionally. The repair was done in exactly the amount of time they expected. Upon my arrival to pick up the vehicle, I was able to take my car for a test drive before having to pay, which was very kind of them. They have a nice service where they ask you to bring the car back by a few weeks later so they can do a free checkup and make sure everything looks good.All this, while they had only just moved into their new location on 53rd street days before. I believe I was their first customer at the new location.I would highly recommend Gator Bush to friends and family and would take my business back there in a heartbeat.

Another great job, Ive definitely found my mechanic in Gainesville. Been twice now and each time Ive left feeling like I was treated honestly while receiving a great price for the work.My first trip I was expecting a $2800 repair as quoted by the dealer. Turned out after they did some poking around a simple $200 fix was all I needed. Would definitely recommend checking them out.

I have taken my car here for a number of years and the service is always very good. The people are nice to work with and the work done is top notch. I will return every time I need help with a problem or just maintenance. I trust these folks to tell me honestly what needs to be done and then to do it correctly. I recommend them to all my friends and family.

Last year, I hit a deer ...did $6k damage to the front end. While my car was at the body shop, I looked around town and found Bush Gator had the best price on a rental car. So I rented it for a week. This year I needed major air conditioner repair.Got my a-c repaired at a great price with fast service and a loaner car. A few days later, I had my 90K mile check up and got the loaner car again. I was impressed.Bush Gator Transmission & Auto Repair is my auto service and car rental company of choice!

Super friendly, honest service. I took my car in and asked them to take a look at my squealing brakes -- fully expecting that i would need new pads or rotors or something. He called a bit later to let me know my brakes were fine, didnt need to be repaired, and that the squealing was dust or something. Just charged me $25 for taking a look. Thanks!

I went there for a hitch instillation and wiring. My Jeep is new and they hadn’t had export ce with the wiring instillation, but they were able to figure it out and have my vehicle back very quickly! It was much more affordable than what my dealership quoted, literally a $650 difference.

Didnt actually use their service but I know they have to have good customer service for coming to my aide in the rain. In the thickest rain Ive seen in a while they aired up my tire so I could get home.

They have been caring for my Honda for two years, ever since I first moved here. Recently I had an idle stutter and took it to the dealership to see if it would be covered by my warranty. The dealership claimed they couldnt diagnose the issue and that it wasnt doing What I had said. Bobby from chuck bush figured it out in a matter of two hours and fixed it for me through my extended warranty for a very reasonable price in less than a day. They are friendly and got the job done and they dont beat around the bush.

Ive got two older cars that tend to need some work from time to time. Ive recently had both worked on at Chucks, and Im never taking them anywhere else again. Hes honest, friendly, and a more than fair priced mechanic in an industry where thats hard to find.

This place is the BEST not to mention all the people are GREAT to deal with! They do NOT try to sell you anything that is not necessary, as they want to make sure that you come back over & over. Which is why this family has been in business & serving the Gainesville area for THREE GENERATIONS!! Thanks Chuck, Robert & the rest of the staff!

GREAT....GREAT.....GREAT By far the best auto repair shop in Gainesville, FL. I took my Chevy Astro there for a fuel pump failure and they took care of it. It took them about a week because i didnt schedule an appointment which was no problem. They called frequently and let me know what the status was. Outstanding Technicians. I will recommend and take any of my vehicles there anytime and everytime.

Horrible customer service skills. Seems to believe that he can loose as many customers as need be because hes doing it hes way. All this based on the fact he swept floors growing up. I hope all my personal friends and UF colleagues see this and STAY away. I will follow up with emails to the entire UF community.There are other excellent repair shops in Gainesville that would love to have the opportunity to gain your long term business and loyalty so please check them out.

I had a gentleman come by my house and sell me a marketing piece from Bush Gator for $69.95. I was supposed to get a free oil change and 3 oil changes for $9.99 per. First was free, second cost me $11.79, third cost me $15.47, and fourth cost me $15.42. I have clearly read and understand the terms on what I purchased. My wife was told the extra fee is for shop supplies which is not in any fine print or any print period on the marketing piece. This business did not honor their marketing material.
