See what our customers have to say about us!
I’m with Carmen C. delivering her new 2020 Subaru Forester. I think this is the third car she and Tom have purchased through Access Auto, and also present were her daughter who has purchased one car and her friend Alex, who referred them, and who has purchased so many cars through us I’ve lost count. Thanks to all of you for your continued business and referrals.
Hi Linda
Linda,
Our son Michael came over and stayed late. He saw the Forester and loved it!
Just bought a new truck - and used an Auto Purchasing service recommended by my
brother - that worked well for me.
Here's our new ride!!
I'm enjoying my new car!!
(From IslandKarma.com) Buy a New Auto on the Big Island or on Mainland? We didn't have any car problems because we sold both our cars. We used an auto-broker to find us the best price on a new SUV. We told her we didn't mind paying a couple of hundred bucks extra to favor a Big Island dealer. She checked a mainland purchase with factory delivery to the BI, Honolulu purchase with $150 shipping to the BI and local BI purchase. We ended up getting our new SUV from the BI Ford dealer (Orchid Isle Auto), for less than the purchase price in California! Never mind the shipping charges. When we arrived from the mainland, in August, the Dealer drove the car over from Hilo and picked us up at the airport with the papers to sign. Fantastic service and a super nice guy. The only Auto Broker I know is in the San Francisco Bay Area. I've bought 4 cars over the last 10 years from Linda Yazell. She charges $500, paid by the dealer. She's always gotten me an excellent price on a car (below invoice). As a "wholesale buyer" in the car business, she deals with the commercial sales department of large dealerships. I give her the specs of what I want, she finds it and negotiates the best price (usually plays 2-3 dealer agents off against each other) and then I go pickup the car. When I decided to move to the Big Island, she checked on cars in California, Honolulu and on the Big Island and found me the best buy from a Hilo dealer. The dealer's rep picked us up at the airport in our new car when we arrived! I recommend Linda highly. Linda Yazell, Access Auto 800-763-9227
Hi Linda, Just a note to say "thank you"! We have now worked with you 3 times over more than 10 years! We appreciate your service and responsiveness. Feel free to use us as a reference anytime. We loved working with Kathi (she is the BEST) and we absolutely LOVE our Mazda. Everyone at the dealership was great.... Guess that is it! I am sure we will be in touch again......Patrick's car has 200,000 miles on it :) Debbie and Patrick R.
Hi Linda, Tacoma Prerunner is home safely. Mikio & Masako
Thanks Linda for helping us find our new Audi! We are enjoying it, and it
was a great Christmas present for me! You were worth every penny! Happy
Holidays!
Hi, Linda, I Love the car! I put its storage capacity to the test today running Christmas errands, filling the trunk, back seat, and front seat! It held more than I would have imagined. Just need to find a garage door opener so I can get in and out of the garage with it! Thanks for your help! Enjoy the holidays! Chris
Linda, Thank you for your help finding this new CR-V. We got home safe and sound (and figured out several things about the car on the way that we hadn't known before) in spite of intermittent rain. Things have changed a bit in 15 years. It feels similar enough to the old CR-V to be familiar, but it's obvious that this one comes from a new century. Jordan was very helpful, friendly and professional, as was Michelle in Finance. Overall, it was a pleasant experience, except for some anxiety on the small plane in the rain flying up to Northern CA. We will definitely remember to recommend you to our friends when they start looking for new cars. You did a great job. When the weather clears up here and we get a bit of sunshine, we'll take a picture of us with the new car and send it to you. Thanks again,
David Stratton
Hi, Linda, There was no problem bringing the check to the dealer and driving the car home this afternoon. I found the staff there to be very supportive with no pressure and, barring any unforeseen circumstances, would seriously consider working with them again if I am in the market for a used car. Could you please send me a copy of the AutoCheck you did on this car? I'd like to have it for my records. There is no question that we would not have been able to identify and secure such an outstanding purchase without your diligent effort on our behalf. You said it best:
Unfortunately, every iteration of "humdinger" I could think of has already been taken in the California vanity license plates. But that doesn't take anything away from the value of working with you and the terrific result you helped secure for us. Thanks again for all your help! Sincerely yours,
I highly recommend the services of Linda Yazell and Access Auto. Over the years, Linda assisted me and certain other executives, in the business where I work, in the acquisition of executive automobiles. She also assisted in arranging for selling such executive automobiles when it was time to sell in conjunction with the replacement/retirement of such executive automobiles. From 2006 through 2009, Linda assisted my wife and me in acquiring a new 2006 Mazda Miata, a 2008 Toyota Prius and a 2009 Toyota Prius. She also helped me sell my 2006 Toyota Highlander Hybrid. During all her efforts, she always delivered superior support and service.
Sincerely,
“My family has worked with Linda for many years and have only purchased cars through her work. She is very personable, punctual and has always provided us with great results. Linda has always provided us with the best opportunities possible for purchasing automobiles. We have referred over twenty friends and colleagues to Linda and not one of them has been disappointed. I am happy to give Linda my unqualified recommendation as an outstanding automobile broker.” November 29, 2010 Top qualities: Expert, Good Value Mark Siegel,

“Linda is a great person to do business with. She really helped us out in getting our first car here in USA. She made sure that we get the best deal in terms of financing and car price considering that we had zero credit history in US and there was hardly anyone willing to give us loan. I would definitely recommend Linda to anyone who wants to get the fair deal and great service while making a auto purchasing decision.” November 24, 2010 Top qualities: Great Results, On Time Ashish Aggarwal,
“Linda's prompt response, industry savvy, and customer service was the reason I decided to use her services to purchase my Prius. Before that decision I had expected to be put on a waiting list; instead, my car was delivered in two days in my requested color and package. I plan to buy my next car through her.” November 24, 2010 Top qualities: Great Results, Expert Denise Earhart,
“Any time I have gone directly to a dealer to buy a car it has been a nightmare. It always takes the better part of the day, is stressful, and when I finally leave I have an uneasy feeling that I made a mistake in my negotiations. With Linda the whole process is stress free and I feel confident that I got a good price on the vehicle. Linda is a pleasure to work with and delivers results fast.” November 24, 2010 Top qualities: Great Results, On Time Sue Blair Dady,
“My wife and I just wanted to express our gratitude to Linda at Access Auto for making the acquisition of our new Toyota Camry so smooth and effortless. She is truly a pleasure to work with. We had some reservations over the thought of purchasing a new car again since we do not like dealing with high pressure dealership sales folks. Linda made the whole process so pleasant and helped us get the most for our dollar while staying within our budget. We have already recommended Linda to our friends and we will continue to recommend Access Auto to anyone looking for a new or used car. We look forward to working with Linda again when we need our next new car.” November 24, 2010 Top qualities: Great Results, Expert, Good Value Thomas Pintacsi,
“As a car broker, Linda has helped me purchase three cars, including two, hard-to-find second hand cars. She found perfect car matches at very competitve fees. In fact the savings in the cars' purchase prices, more than offset the broker fee.” November 24, 2010 Top qualities: Great Results, Expert, Good Value Kent Ferre, S.E.,
“Linda has been a great facilitator, excellent communicator, and timely.” November 23, 2010 Top qualities: Great Results, Good Value Mike Mercadante,

If any problems arose, she worked the issues until they were properly resolved. Linda always provided excellent service with integrity and I would recommend her to anyone shopping for any type of vehicle.” November 23, 2010 Top qualities: Great Results, Personable, Expert Todd Smathers,
“Linda helped me buy my Lexus SC400. She located the car I wanted, negotiated the deal and coordinated the delivery. She did an absolutely flawless job with none of the normal stress of buying a car. She has relationships with the dealer and as a result, negotiates a price as good or better than I could have - all for a flat nominal fee. I can't say enough about what a fantastic job she does! Rick” November 23, 2010 Top qualities: Great Results, Expert, Good Value Rick Salow,
“Linda takes the pain out of finding and buying the right car. She got us the exact hard-to-find model and color we wanted for a very good price. We were in and out of the dealer in record time due to her preliminary work. We will call on her again the next time we are in the market for a vehicle.” November 23, 2010 Top qualities: Personable, Expert, Good Value Don Nunes,

“Linda Yazell is a person who knows what her customer is looking for because she listens carefully to what the customer wants in an automobile. She then gets on the case, searches her databases of dealerships, and begins presenting various vehicles for consideration, all done online, which helps the customer evaluate and compare so that a decision is made. When the vehicle of choice is located, Linda makes sure that the final arrangements are made and accomplished prior to delivery. I will never again venture over to a dealership to purchase my next vehicle, Linda takes away all of the undo sales and finance department's pressures that so put a negative spin on automobile purchases.” November 22, 2010 Top qualities: Great Results, Expert Ed Blake,
“I have purchased several autos, using Linda's service. In all cases the service was excellent. She knows what she is doing, has many contacts the can get the deal done in a timely manner.

I've had the car for over 5 thousand miles and remain pleased with it and our business transaction. I absolutely will use Linda next time and YES I do recommend her to others.

A great service provider for busy people who hate negotiating for a car, but know what they want!” November 27, 2007 Top qualities: Great Results, Expert Dina Bensen,
“I had the pleasure of doing business with Linda sometime ago, when I owned and operated an automobile dealership. Linda was an independent broker, who assisted clients looking to purchase a vehicle without the typical back and forth common in automobile sales transactions. Her role was to help locate the clients desired car, and to negotiate and secure the purchase of that vehicle at near-wholesale or fleet prices. She was a thourough professional, and throughout our transactions, she remained calm, detail oriented, and quite pleasant to deal with. I found this to be a refreshing change from others I'd worked with in similar positions, as she never seemed to have "something to prove" or an adversarial attitude. In short, I would recommend Linda as a detail oriented, competent negotiator and thorough professional- regardless of the task at hand.” August 13, 2007 Robert Gaither, Owner, The Gaither Group, Inc. dba Auto Outlet
“My wife and I have used Linda to purchase four new cars for us (2 Acuras and 2 Toyotas). Each time, we have been completely satisfied with the final product AND the service she provided in exchange for her fee. The last car we purchased (2006 Sequoia Ltd 4X4) - was the most challenging in that we wanted a fairly rare combination of options and had a compressed time frame (wife was pregnant with twins - out of town family needed to be picked up at multiple airports on way up to visit parents for Thanksgiving). At one point, we needed to push back on Linda to maintain previously agreed to schedule - and she responded professionally and kept to original schedule.” August 13, 2007 Top qualities: Great Results, Good Value, On Time Steve Taylor,
Hi Linda I couldn't be happier in my experience working with Linda Yazell! I had been haggling with dealerships over the price of a new car for a few weeks, and was having difficulty in getting straight answers to my questions. Looming ahead of me was the negotiation over my trade in. In these tough economic times it was important to me to get a good deal on the new car and the trade in, and to not feel like I was being taken advantage of by crafty salesmen! It was then that I decided to call Linda for some help. Within 24 hours Linda had secured a great price on the exact vehicle I wanted, and negotiated a trade in deal that I believe is about $2000-3000 more than I would have gotten on my own. By the end of the week my new car was delivered to my house, and I sat at my kitchen table and signed the paperwork. I never had to leave my home, and the experience I had in working with Linda was top notch. I found Linda to be extremely knowledgeable, timely and enthusiastic about assisting me with my vehicle needs. She has a background in the business, and understands the process from all angles. As long as Linda is in business, I will recommend her services to everyone I know. This is by far the best way to buy a new car! Thanks, Linda!!
Hi Linda Hey, I just bought my Subaru with the help of Linda. I'm telling everybody, if you want a car or know anyone looking, use her. I hate shopping and it was the easiest experience that I could have had. I got an incredible deal and they delivered it to my house with just 5 minutes worth of papers to sign. Thanks Linda!!!
Hi Linda Just thought you'd like to see the proud owner of the BMW X5. She
went off to dinner with some of her closest friends and when she returned the
car was in the front driveway with spotlights on it. I heard all of them
screaming as they drove up the street. It was a very exciting moment. She cried
tears of joy she was so surprised and happy. Once again, thank you for your
help.
Hi Linda, Thank you so much for helping us out with our new car. I luv the color and the car rides nice and smooth. Still learning about all the bells and whistles. I was surprised to see that it even has a calendar. Wow it's great. I will be happy to refer you to anyone I know that's looking to buy a new car.
Thanks again,
I meant to send this sooner, but, hey, we have a new car and took a three-day trip to Walla Walla. Thanks for your services in obtaining our car. The frustration level was pretty high, and when our son-in-law who had purchased a car through you mentioned your name we said, “Let’s give it a try.” Best experience I’ve ever had buying a car! Best $500 I’ve ever spent. (Well, one of the best.) Hassle free, fast service from you, and in-and-out in no time at the dealership. (Just got a “Thank you note” in the mail from the dealership.) I’ll be paying a “brag” dollar at Rotary and letting the club know about “the best way to buy a car!” I’ve attached two pictures of a very happy camper Roger and Janet Just a quick note to say we just received the car (well about an hour ago) and it looks great. We both really like the light blue and we’re busy discovering all the cool features we have with this van. Everything went smoothly with the paperwork (as usual) and the price you quoted me was only off by about $15 (I consider that right-on when dealing with amounts like this J). Thanks again … it’s always a pleasure dealing with you. Such a hassle-free way to purchase a car ! Alex and Roxanne Hi Linda, Hi Linda, I bought the 1998 Civic! It’s a beautiful piece of work! It’s almost “practically perfect in every way” (Mary Poppins). It drives great, it looks great, and it’s in my garage as I write, keeping it nice and safe from the harming rays of the sun. Turns out my daughter is coming down from school on Saturday with friends for a get together in San Francisco so it works out that she will pick it up then. This particular Honda is a masterpiece and I’m way satisfied. Thank you for all your gumshoe detective work. Good find. Maggie is also very pleased with the GMC Envoy you found, so we’ve been fortunate to have been treated to your vehicle-find services twice within the last five days and both of us are very pleased. For my daughter, the Honda is the perfect college car (again). She just needs to stop wrecking college cars and graduate. Thank you, P.S. The dealer even commented on how nice he thought you are on the phone. Despite my misgivings on what dealers might say, I believe him when he said that. This is a picture of Bob Anderson and me with his new 2006 BMW Z4. Bob drove
it down to Santa Cruz and let me take it for a spin! This is either car number 4
or 5 that I've helped Bob get, starting in 1994. That's 12 years and I'm looking
forward to the next one. And thanks, Bob, for all the referrals!"

Hi Linda,
Hi Linda! Thanks for your follow-up call today. I love my new 2005 BMW convertible, and want to thank you again for all your help in obtaining it for me. I think this is the sixth or seventh vehicle that Dick and I have acquired through your services, and we are so grateful for the time-saving, professional way in which you always handle these transactions. As two busy professionals who both dread shopping for a new vehicle (I break out in the sweats when approaching a car dealership!!), we thank you for taking all the pain out of the process. We've referred you to several of our friends, who have also been very satisfied. Now one of these days, the three of us actually have to get together face-to-face and meet! Take care; talk to you soon! Nancy L

Hi Linda,
Best wishes for success and many fun treks.
May 18, 2001 Hi Linda! We can't tell you how pleased we are with the new truck, and how entirely grateful we are to you for pulling off the miracle that you brought about. You know, the dealer was telling us while we were out there that the truck had a buyer for it as recently as last Sunday (!!) but he bailed out, leaving it for us. Amazing... So, many thanks for all of your efforts. They really paid off, and we're very happy! Take good care.
Marty and Cheryl R
Thanks again, Linda......this car truly was the unachievable dream that came true! Couldn't have possibly afforded it without your help! I'm very happy that you took the time to come down to the dealer to finally meet too! Thanks, More photos of my great car, and thanks for your help and diligence! Just click on the photos below, and they will appear in a popup browser window.
Dear Linda, Linda, It was a real pleasure doing business with you! After weeks of frustration and poor service from a dealer, you found the car I had been looking for within 15 minutes of our initial conversation, and I had completed the actual purchase within an hour. The entire process was simple, professionally-conducted, and very efficient - I was extremely pleased, and I enjoyed doing business with you. Regards, Linda, Thank you so much for a great buying experience! My new car is great and I love it! The man who dropped it off, George, was outstanding! He went over all the things on the car, went for a ride with me in it, reviewed all the paperwork at my dining room table, etc. He's very conscientious and seems to love his job. We shook hands and he gave me a hug as he left! First time I ever got a hug when buying a car!! I has been a pleasure to do business with you, and you can be sure I will refer others your way whenever possible. Thank you again! Dear Linda, I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the wonderful job that you are doing for World Savings. It's been about 8 years now that you have been locating the cars that we buy out of "dealer stock". We buy an average of about 55-60 cars a year, and you've made my job so much easier, and my drivers are happy as well. We couldn't ask for a better deal. Please accept my sincere gratitude for all you have done, and for all you continue to do! I look forward to many more years of our team effort. Sincerely, World Savings and Loan Dear Linda, We just wanted to express our gratitude for making the acquisition of our new Toyota Camry so smooth and effortless. You truly are a pleasure to work with. We visited 3 different manufacturer's dealerships in the local area to decide on which model would best suited Judy's requirements. Once we figured out that the Toyota Camry was our target, we gave you a call. Our main concern was that we wouldn't get approval on the financing that we would require. You made the financing application process very simple and it was approved within 48 hours. Upon giving you the options and color combinations that we were interested in, you were able to find the car that would suit us within 24 hours and what I really liked is that you got the dealership to deliver the vehicle right to our house. We had reservations as well as some anxiety over the thought to purchasing a new car again, we do not like dealing with dealership salesmen. You made the whole process so pleasant and you made us very happy by working with us within our budget limits. We have already recommended you to our friends and we will continue to recommend you to anyone looking for a car. We look forward to working with you again when we need our next new car. Sincerely, Tom and Judy P Hi LINDA! We had a FUN drive back from the dealership! I hope you enjoyed the rest of your beautiful Sunday! I REALLY love my little car, and I want to thank you so much for your usual GREAT service - from beginning to end, including delivering me right to the Mercedes dealership doorstep! Looks like I won't need your services for at least four fun-filled years, but if anyone I know is looking for that special car, I will definitely refer them to you! Thanks again, Linda!
Just a quick note to tell you that the car arrived as expected and everything's fine. We're really pleased with the car and also with how easy the whole process is when we deal with you. We haven't purchased a car any other way since we first dealt with you on the 92 Camry. And, we pass on your name and number whenever we hear of someone we know who is shopping for a car. Thanks again, Linda
