Our Reviews
I have been a Bob Brown customer for 50 years. Bob Brown GMC in Ankeny, Iowa is an excellent dealership.. I have never been treated that good. Two employees Jeremy and Rick are outstanding! Their service cannot be matched.I highly recommend for anybody to experience their service and commitment.
Was painless…in and out and the staff were great and made everything easy. I will shop here again.
Thanks Joe for your professionalism and straight forward communication on the purchase of the XT5. It was a seamless process and I wanted to take the time to say Thank You! Jeff & Siriwan
Had my wife’s Yukon serviced there recently. Our service was amazing and the service advisor went above and beyond, he let us know we were all up to date with our maintenance and let us know when our next would be. We believe his name is Thomas. We will continue to have our vehicles serviced here!
We were researching a used late model GMC Acadia Denali in the Kansas City area with no success. We found this vehicle listed with Bob Brown Buick GMC in Ankeny, IA thru a car search website. We read several positive Google reviews about the dealership and many folks were happy working with Joe Carley (sales rep). Those that gave him a good review were not wrong, a military veteran (Marine Corps) who provides amazing customer service. After spending minimal time negotiating a price we agreed to, the dealership was very open to having a certified outside mechanic do a look over of the vehicle. Once that was done, we drove up from KC a few days later, the vehicle was ready for a test drive, once that was done, we went right in to see Brenna in Finance, she didn't waste our time trying to up sell us on extras and overpriced extended warranties or charging junk fees that other dealerships are notorious for. A very positive experience working with this dealership, Thank you Joe and Brenna for the easy and smooth customer experience.
My experience with this dealership and their incredible staff is what ultimately sold me on the vehicle. While I was looking for a replacement, I wasn't in a rush. After visiting several other dealerships, Bob Brown was a welcome change and a breath of fresh air. The staff were incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, especially my sales associate, Austin, who made the entire process smooth and stress-free. He was very responsive, listened carefully to what I was looking for, and answered all my questions ( I had a lot, LOL)! The dealership itself is immaculate—well-organized and comfortable, with a great selection of both new and pre-owned vehicles. I felt no pressure throughout the process, which was a huge relief compared to past experiences at other dealerships. Highly recommend Bob Brown Buick GMC to anyone looking for a stress-free, customer-focused car buying experience! Austin was an exceptional car salesperson—highly recommend him! Thanks!
Joe Carley was amazing to work with, he was responsive and diligent in finding us the exact car and color we were looking for. It was a great buying experience and we will be back!!
I recently had the pleasure of purchasing a 2025 1500 Denali, and I can not say enough good things about the experience. Joe, my sales representative, played a huge role in making this possible. He was incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and, most importantly, not pushy at all. Joe took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for and worked diligently to help me find my truck. Throughout the entire process, Joe's professionalism and dedication were evident. He patiently answered all my questions, provided valuable insights, and never once made me feel pressured to make a decision. It was clear that his primary goal was to ensure I was completely satisfied with my purchase, and he succeeded. The dealership itself is exceptional. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm welcome and a high level of customer service. The staff went above and beyond to make sure I felt comfortable and well taken care of. What truly sets this dealership apart is their commitment to going the extra mile. Whether it was helping me navigate financing options, providing a thorough walkthrough of the vehicle's features, or ensuring all my paperwork was handled efficiently, every step was handled with the utmost care and attention to detail. Driving away in my 2025 1500 Denali, I couldn't be happier with my purchase. The vehicle itself is everything I hoped for and more, and I owe a great deal of that to Joe and the wonderful team at this dealership. If you're in the market for a new vehicle and want an experience that is smooth and enjoyable, I highly recommend paying them a visit. You won't be disappointed!
Shane Luring was very knowledgeable, helpful and friendly!
Bob Brown GMC was great working with Issac on buying and selling my car. He is very good at explaining all of the features of the vehicle l. Highly recommend.
I recently moved over 2 hours away but my wife and I knew we wanted to work with Bob Brown Buick GMC for a new vehicle. Joe Carley and Aaron Havill provided top-tier experience as they were available through email and phone during my vehicle search. Also, I was especially appreciative that we didn’t have to spend a lot of unnecessary time at the dealership and they had everything ready to go. The Finance Manager was very personable during paperwork and did an excellent job of explaining details. Great service all around!
About a month ago we purchased a new vehicle from Bob Brown Buick GMC and worked with Joe Carley. He was awesome to work with, very understanding and helpful, made sure that we were being taken care of, and did his best to keep us in the loop. The customer service was amazing and we are very thankful for all that Joe and the team did to help us purchase my new car! All in all, we had an amazing experience at Bob Brown with Joe.
Excellent service, sold them my car and it was fast and effortless. They will be my first choice next time I'm car shopping. Adell was great as well with wonderful customer service.
Our family had a great experience with Bob Brown GMC last week! We purchased a vehicle for our son and worked with Ryan. He took great care of us! He has helped us purchase or lease 4 vehicles over the last several years. We also worked with Brenna for our purchase agreement and extended warranty. She is the best! Both Ryan and Brenna took extra time to make us feel comfortable. Highly recommend these two people and this dealership!
Loved my experience with Kamrie, Ron, Jim and Brenna! They are an absolute pleasure to work with!
