So I called in for a quote Alex gave me number thn GSM BRIAN called me for a deposite I was very honest and I told them both I can't play game and I don't have time to waist I told him what I'm looking for he face timed me !!!

Great Overall Experience My husband and myself want to thank Amesbury Chevrolet's Staff and especially Eric Martin whom made our whole purchasing experience first class. We c My husband and myself want to thank Amesbury Chevrolet's Staff and especially Eric Martin whom made our whole purchasing experience first class. We couldn't be happier with our new 2015 Camero . We traveled from NY State and the trip was well worth it. We were picked up at the airport and given dealer plates to transit our car home. We are beyond satisfied with our purchase and would recommend anyone to check out Amesbury Chevrolet for their next auto purchase. Top notch experience, friendly staff, professional and knowledgeable. More

Really bad and disrespectful service employee My Experience: We were treated disrespectfully on the phone and the employee even hung up the phone on us and told me "It is not our problem" with My Experience: We were treated disrespectfully on the phone and the employee even hung up the phone on us and told me "It is not our problem" with a new Chevy Traverse... We are extremelly disatisfied with the service and feel like the dealership failed in customer service. We formally complained to the manager at the dealership and with Chevy's headquarters. We have been turned off from our experience and will probably not buy or lease a Chevy in the future because of the extremely rude behavior of the employee. More

Redemption I wrote the previous review (Patton 321) The owner called me direct and was nothing short of spectacular. He keep his word and was honest with me abo I wrote the previous review (Patton 321) The owner called me direct and was nothing short of spectacular. He keep his word and was honest with me about how the Tahoe's drive. To show you how classy this owner is, due to his recommendation about test driving a Tahoe before I purchase, I did not buy a 2012. That is true customer service !! I will look possible to buy a 2015 Tahoe as the ride is great and if I do it will be only from Amesbury ! The owner Brian is a man of integrity ! More

Sales tactics on price and vehicle conditions mis-leading Went there looking for a SUV and then the fun began! First the price online has a $2000 down payment in the fine print, and that isn't even mentioned Went there looking for a SUV and then the fun began! First the price online has a $2000 down payment in the fine print, and that isn't even mentioned when they email you the internet price but again way in the bottom of the fine print. That already pissed me off when they mentioned that when we sat to talk numbers. they said its to stay competitive! No just tricky! But any way managed to get to a number I was happy with the hard way. So after that we ended up having to wait a long time to get into finance (We were paying cash should be very quick) sat there for a while and finally told them we had to leave and would come back. Came back later and waited some more not as long though and paid for the car and we get in the car that was suppose to be detailed, wasn't even close to being cleaned. We told the salesman who was pissed because this was a on going issue with the company that details the cars there and I guess they were being replaced within a week because of issues like this. Even if that was the case and it is a known issue the dealership management should be personally checking every vehicle that goes out, just basic business! So after they offered to have it detailed the right way at a later date we left and on the way home we noticed a faint smell of something not sure maybe smoke? So we get home and look around the car some more and noticed several burn marks on the floor that were repaired and a burn mark on the driver side floor mat so yup a smoking car. We asked them if this was a smoking car and was told it was not. Keep in mind this was suppose to be a Chevy Certified vehicle, not sure a smoking car would be considered for that since that smell never goes away. On top of that there was no paper work with the certification check list and one of the first things on that check list is to make sure the car has a owners manual which it didn't. We assume to this day it never actually went through the proper process to be certified. But the next day we called and basically told them we wanted a new car and they offered to clean it but didn't really deny it was a smoking car at this point because they knew the whole time. Did I mentioned they installed new leather seats when it was traded in? This was a LS bottom trim line, why would they install leather? Oh yeah the car stunk that bad! I was under the impression that the first owner installed the leather but that wasn't the case. So they kinda agreed to exchange the vehicle but when I asked about another one they have on the lot the sales manager quickly said it was already sold, funny thing about that is the vehicle is still there and still for sale to this day. So after some more complaining from my wife and I they said bring the car back and we will give you your money back but here is the best part he said " We aren't going to sell you another car here we don't want your busy" Awesome customer service.. Keep in mind a little perk of buying a certified Chevy is a 3 day exchange policy if you don't like the car for any reason. They denied that even existed until the very last time I spoke with the sales manager and said that goes through GM which it doesn't. No better then any other used car lot around. More

Close but not close enough Went there on a Thursday afternoon to check out a specific car. Upon arrtival, I was greeted by the USM Brian, who intro'd us to Kelsey, 1 of his top Went there on a Thursday afternoon to check out a specific car. Upon arrtival, I was greeted by the USM Brian, who intro'd us to Kelsey, 1 of his top salesmen. To make a long story short, due to an emergency at the dealership right after we arrived, we were unable to complete what we started out to do. We then left and came back 2 days later and met with salesman Jeff Pelonzi. Jeff was very attentive and personable as was his Mgr. Brian. After spending almost 5 hours there on a Saturday, the numbers just didn't work out for us on the loan aspect, so I ended up having to leave in disappointment, with no newer car..Their finance guy Fred, is also very caring and tries his best to make things work on his end, but to no avail for me.

Low Key But Informative I reluctantly walked into this dealership on a Sunday afternoon, didn't really want to buy a car but I needed one. I figured that it would be a fact- I reluctantly walked into this dealership on a Sunday afternoon, didn't really want to buy a car but I needed one. I figured that it would be a fact-finding mission, that I would take a couple of test drives and go home to think it over. Stuart met me on the lot. I had a budget (of course) and a couple of thoughts about what I might want to drive. He made a suggestion or two and then let me test drive a bunch of different cars. Even though I hadn't planned on making a decision that day, I ended up putting a deposit down on a 2010 Honda CRV. Now, I don't know much about cars, so I wanted my mechanic to look at it before committing. No problem, Stuart offered to drive the car to my mechanic (several towns away) for a look-see. Then the dealership agreed to every repair that the mechanic suggested and had it done for me in no time at all. Financing was easy, too, and I found myself chatting away with Fred while he ground away at the numbers for me. Here's the really cool part: I had made an appointment to finalize the loans with Fred but forgot to tell the sales folks that I wanted to pick the car up at the same time. Totally and completely my bad. I figured I would just come back the next day but, no, the whole team acted like it was their goof and not mine. From the way they acted, you would have thought that the Queen of England was standing there, tapping her foot -- although I was NOT tapping my foot and I was perfectly happy to take delivery at a later time. They were having none of that. There was a scramble to get the car ready -- and when they realized there was one more thing that needed attention, they apologized, gave me a loaner car so I could get to work, and then drove my "new" car (all clean and spiffy) to me later that afternoon. Now, I don't know much about cars, but I have purchased them before. The experience, in the past, was not especially pleasant. This time was completely different. It was a lot like buying a car from an uncle I hadn't seen in a while, somebody who was thrilled to see me, wanted to be sure I was happy, and had told the whole staff to treat me well. I will absolutely go back for my next car and, if you're in the market, would encourage you to go up there, say hello to Stuart, and ask for a test drive. More

BEST car buying experience I've ever had. Friendly, NO pressure sales staff with great sense of humor to boot and no typical "car salesman" attitude! They work hard to earn your business and their ser NO pressure sales staff with great sense of humor to boot and no typical "car salesman" attitude! They work hard to earn your business and their service department is superb! Pleasant, clean and comfortable environment to wait while your car is being serviced - comfortable leather chairs, television, fireplace, the works!
