Good service, friendly salesmen.
Danjel was a pleasure to work with during our purchase. He was the first salesperson to introduce us to using a live video conference prior to making the drive into Vernon to further expore the desired vehicle. There was no pressure or expectation, just a calm approach that was most enjoyable. I highly recommend Danjel for your experience at Bannister GM Vernon.
Great service
As an Alaskan traveling through Vernon, BC for business, I needed urgent vehicle maintenance and contacted Bannister GMC Vernon at the last minute. Barry Shaw and the service team were professional, efficient, and accommodating from start to finish. They topped up my windshield washer fluid, checked all engine fluids, and had me safely back on the road quickly with honest communication and fair pricing.Their service truly reflected “A Family Business, with Family Values.” I highly recommend Barry Shaw and the entire team at Bannister GMC Vernon for reliable and trustworthy vehicle service. Highly recommend for both locals and travelers needing quick, honest, and dependable help on the road. ❤️🙏

Robert McLaren is the Best salesperson I know. I have dealt with Rob for the past 10 years and he has ALWAYS been helpful, courteous, caring, going over and above in making sure I have been taken care of; From purchasing a new vehicle to the service of my vehicle. I HIGHLY recommend Rob to anyone who may be looking for a vehicle to purchase.

Working with DANJEL SVAB of Bannister GM has been a delight.Very knowledgeable and worked diligently to answer all my questions. The Bannister team in Vernon are amazing and shout out to Patrick Dew as well for assisting me and Danjel in making a great purchase.When you go there ask for Danjel as your sales consultant and involve Patrick Dew as the Sales manger and you will not go wrong!
I just wanted to offer our condolences to the Bannister Family on the loss of Lyn Bannister. I remember meeting him one Friday afternoon cooking up burgers for the staff.I had just moved to Vernon and really didn't know anyone in the business. I was welcomed to his dealership with open arms.He was a first class car guy who will be sadly missed by his family and everyone in the industry.The Skerritt family
Buying a new Chevy Equinox was a great experience at Bannisters. Jesse was great, answering all our questions and helping us to understand the intricacies of this modern high tech vehicle. Thanks, Jesse.
Went to salmon arm last weekend from Abbotsford for a hockey tournament, stopped in just to have a look. Found a truck that was exactly what I wanted. Came back up with my trade, happy to say customer service is not dead, at least not up country like it is in the lower mainland. Kate was amazing to deal with in every aspect, actually every person I had dealings with there was great. Wish they were closer to home. I highly recommend Kate and the team if you want to be treated fantastic.
We just bought a truck at Bannister in Vernon.We were very happy with our salesperson Mark Readman.Along with knowing everything about our new vehicle,he was very friendly.We didn’t feel uncomfortable and pressured.He took a lot of time to show us seniors about all the bells and whistles.THANKS Mark
Amazing experience. There was no pushing for a sale from Robert McLaren. They approved me right away. Walked out of the dealership with my 2025 Equinox EV in just under 1.5 hours! Jump on this 0% financing!
My Wife and I had an excellent experience with Mark. He’s a top notch sales professional and I’d highly recommend working with him and his team. If you’ve purchased vehicles from other dealerships you can run into a variety of negotiation tactics, hidden fees and poor ethics. Happy to report none of those things occurred. The experience we had was streamlined and we wrapped up the delivery and were on the road in an hour. I’ll be recommending Bannister Vernon.
I recently bought a new car from Bannister and had the pleasure of working with Nathan Mushaluk as my salesman and his team. Nathan went above and beyond to find and bring in the exact vehicle I was looking for and made sure I was totally comfortable with all the features before driving off. Everything from sales, to financing, to licensing was such a breeze. Nathan was extremely personable and very helpful throughout the entire process, always being just a text away. I appreciate all the help from the Bannister team, thank you!!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐I had a seamless 5 star experience buying my Enclave. Jesse at Bannister Automotive Group made the entire process easy and stress free. The trade in was fair, the deal was solid, and everything was handled professionally from start to finish. No pressure, no games, just honest straightforward service. I would absolutely recommend Jesse to anyone looking to buy a vehicle.
Big shout out to Jesse Crowe and team ! They were great to deal with. I was able to do a deal over the phone and picked up my truck in 3 days.Everything went smoothly. Ive boughten my fair share of vehicles and this was by far the BEST experience ive ever had at a dealership !Thank you Jesse and your team !Tim
We needed to upgrade our truck in order to haul a large work trailer and Georgia Gregoire helped us find the perfect fit! She was knowledgeable and the perfect amount of communication. Due to timming and living a few hours away Patrick also helped us throughout the process and the whole experience was very pleasant.
I just bought a 2023 Chevy Silverado RST from this dealership and couldn’t be more happy! I’ve had really bad experiences purchasing vehicles in the past and they definitely changed that for me!Georgia was my sales person and she was very sweet and helpful and didn’t make me feel pressured into a deal. Also want to thank the manager Matt and sales person Jesse, they were awesome!Overall everyone I worked with to finish the deal including the finance department was great and would highly recommend buying a vehicle from them! Definitely worth the drive from the island, thanks guys!!
The staff at bannister were so kind! They were very helpful and efficient. I took my car there needing a couple of part replacements and they got everything done within the day! Also very reasonable pricing; I received a quote for $6400 prior to bringing it to Bannister but my final cost at Bannister was less than $600. Would absolutely recommend to my friends and family!
I bought a 2025 Chevy Trax Active from Bannister and I LOVE it! My salesperson, Georgia was knowledgeable, friendly & accommodating. Please consider Bannister for your next car purchase & ask for Georgia.
Bought a truck from Georgia, came in not even knowing what I wanted and Georgia got me into my absolute dream truck!
Georgia was the best sales lady in the world!!! Thank you!!!
I've purchased three vehicles from Bannister GM Vernon over the last few years, and I can't say enough good things about their service. Rob McLaren and Chris Beaton have always been incredibly supportive and transparent when it comes to my needs. While there have been minor issues with the service department, they've always gone out of their way to make it right. This process can be stressful, but they've made it completely stress free, and I'm very happy with my purchases.
We have purchased two vehicles with Mark Readman at Bannister GM. Mark is very professional, knowledgeable, and has a low-pressure approach that prioritizes the customer's needs. He is honest, patient, and transparent about pricing, making the buying experience smooth and stress-free. Mark helped us get trucks that fit our budget, needs and made the process fast and smooth. Mark also did a fantastic job at providing great follow up service, and making sure every part of the deal(s) was satisfied.He continues to provide excellent service even after the sale is complete, and we have and will continue to recommend working with Mark at Bannister GM to all of our friends, family and anyone shopping for a vehicle! No funny business or dishonesty with Mark. We have had several unacceptable deals at other dealerships and because of Marks exemplary customer service we will be sticking with the Bannister group going forward. Thanks, Mark, for doing such an excellent job. Would highly recommend shopping with Mark Readman at Bannister GM Vernon.
Great experience at Bannister Vernon. Mark was very attentive and respectful through the whole process. Good communication, professional service, and everything went smoothly. I appreciate the way they treated me.
As a local painting contractor, I have two vehicles that are serviced at Bannister GM. I purchased my latest vehicle from Rob McLaren and and both vehicles are serviced by Darcy. Have always enjoyed going to the dealer. Thank you!
Service at Bannister is always top notch. Always friendly and accommodating
Excellent place! Friendly staff! Rob, Chris, Patrick and Kim were all professional, caring and thorough!
Quality people like Michael Tovani in Parts Dept and John Pili in Service Dept make it easy to deal with Bannister GM Vernon!
Would not take my Vehicle any where else they are always so accommodating.
Our purchase of a new Sierra 3500 was very pleasant. Mark, our salesman has extensive knowledge of the products, is very helpful, and made the process easy. We won't hesitate to recommend Mark and the team at Bannister to our friends or family when they are shopping for a new vehicle!
5 star service from Jesse Crowe on our new truck
My wife and I found out she was pregnant and started looking for a more reliable vehicle for her. We were looking at Rav 4s in Kelowna and decided to expand our search. The salesman we dealt with (Jesse) was really nice and honest. He was a breath of fresh air after dealing with some other salesmen.We test drove a used 2019 Rav 4 and my Wife was very excited. We purchased it and the whole process was stress free. After the purchase Jesse kept in touch to make sure we were happy and there were no issues.10/10 would recommend!
Got a good deal on tires and were installed quickly and acurately, John kept me informed all the time, truely professional place.
Great service techs and staff. Always help with questions and never too busy. Will continue to do business with Bannister.
