I needed my car repaired and had the part ordered. It hadn't come in yet and I needed a car to get to work the next night. I knew I couldn't get my car fixed in time so I looked at the option of buying a different car. I looked online and found one I was interested in. I sent a message of my interest. They called me the next morning and said they could bring the car to me to test drive it. I am 20 miles away. They said they would be there in an hour and ...
We find everyone at Brown's are very helpful and polite. Delivering our vechicle back to our home gives them a rating of 10 plus.
Good process, pretty quick and easy. Alot of surveys are sent afterwards which is kind of annoying as I didnt even have my vehicle yet as it was getting a cover put on.

I've dealt with Browns Sales & Leasing since moving to Elkader in 1997, buying vehicles and having service work done. Recently I had a number of issues with my 1999 Ford 3/4 ton Super Duty pick-up.

The technician did a lot of work especially with the manifolds with a number of bolts broken off and embedded in the on the 10 cylinder engine on both sides.

Fixed my vehicle fast and on time, gave me a loaner.great to deal with. Tech explained what they were going to do to fix it.
Issues with door not fully resolved after initial visit. Received call from Service Manager Chris Henry to follow up on issue. He made arrangements to have the vehicle looked at by a GM rep, received approval to elevate the status and the car got fixed immediately. Chris is a great asset to Browns.
Very good experience. We didn't feel any of the stress usually associated with car buying. We would definitely recommend to a friend. Good deal

I couldn’t recommend Brown’s more. We have purchased several vehicles from here even though we live a good distance away. We always come back here because everything is always so easy and smooth. Relaxed and professional. The entire team is great. Thanks for everything!

I bought my vehicle from Brown’s in Elkader, IA. From the moment I set foot on the lot 2 years ago to my most recent service, the staff at Brown’s has been phenomenal! They answer all my questions, and in my experience-very prompt service. The quality of service you get when you walk in the door to the time you leave is outstanding! I’ve not had a bad experience yet, and I doubt I ever will. 🙂
They were amazing with everything and very accommodating. They went above and beyond to help with the service on my vehicle and to make sure I was completely satisfied with my purchase.
I purchased my truck here and like the service of pick up and drop off at my office. They are friendly and helpful at Browns.

Always have good service here. Matt always does great work. Everyone is friendly and helpful. I will be taking my cars here as long as Matt works here.
Good communication during online inquiry. Sales staff was helpful and easy to work with during purchase visit. Long trip from our home but we were there and back home the same day with a used vehicle that we are happy to have found.
They were able to schedule my service the next day and completed the repair in faster than promised. The cost was exactly what was quoted in the estimate.
My issue was resolved and I was kept informed on the status of repairs that day. Professional and friendly staff. Clean facilities and nice television.
