Reason for Visit: Service
I recommend this dealer: No
My Review of Stevinson Chevrolet West:
Recently I became the owner of my first Chevy through an inheritance (I've always been a Toyota Truck man). Although this vehicle is 9 years old, it only has 50,000 miles on it. I took the car in for service for a gas gauge that had stopped working.
The list of recommended work came back at a whooping $2,300 on a vehicle only worth $3,400. Some of the work recommended seemed to be overkill. For instance, new brakes were recommended even though I'd just replaced them in the last 5,000 miles.
The frustrating thing is that the dealership didn't really seem willing to talk the different recommendations and what's immediately necessary and what's not. I felt like they either wanted to make $2,000 off of me in repairs or sell me a new car. I'd hope that the dealership would be someone that would be honest with me, but obvioiusly they're interested in sales... not customer relationships.
So, what I learned is that either one of two things must be true. 1) When you get a chevy you can only expect to get 50,000 miles out of the a chevy before it needs more work done than the car is worth or 2) this dealership only has an interest in selling you a new car. I suspect the later.
