Went to Budget on Saturday during the crazy wildfires. These guys stayed open... during a hectic time to help me get my brakes fixed before leaving Kelowna. They were extremely helpful and fast. Called me to ask for approval with pricing and had my car done within 45 minutes. Will definitely be returning. Thanks Zak and the rest of the gang! Highly recommend this place.read more

Carlos is the guy who know cars in Kelowna!

These days you almost need an engineering degree to work on new vehicles, it just so happens I have one! It is key to continue adapting to new technology through continued education and updated tooling and software to stay relevant in today’s automotive industry. I am very lucky to be in Kelowna and glad to give people a place they can call their own. A place where your automotive needs are addressed even if they don’t fit into a “check box”. Einstein once said “It’s not that I’m so smart, it’s just that I stay with problems longer.” I remind myself everyday that the quality of life I enjoy is based on the labours of others and therefore, give my best as a technician, as a business owner and as a father everyday to do my part and contribute to my community.
