I am writing this specifically about the service department at Athens Chevrolet as a warning to other Corvette owners. I own a 2022 C8 Corvette that developed an intermittent no-start issue. The department at Athens Chevrolet as a warning to other Corvette owners. I own a 2022 C8 Corvette that developed an intermittent no-start issue. The vehicle would randomly not start leaving all interior lights on which would drain the battery. Before bringing the car in, I had just replaced the battery myself and drove the car less than half a mile to the dealership. I explained this to the service department and specifically requested a battery draw/drain test and a body control module be tested. NO diagnostic testing was performed. Instead, I was told the problem was a loose battery terminal bolt and they attempted to charge me $50 to tighten it. I was also made to feel the issue was essentially caused by me because I had replaced the battery. The car continued to have the same no-start problem. Following their recommendation, I ended up spending approximately $700 replacing batteries trying to fix a problem they never actually diagnosed. I then took the vehicle to Rick Hendrick Chevrolet in Buford. After a proper diagnostic inspection, they immediately found the real cause: a failed transmission range sensor that was falsely telling the vehicle it was not in Park. The repair was covered under the drivetrain warranty and had nothing to do with the battery or any battery terminal. So to summarize my experience at Athens Chevrolet: • No diagnostic testing performed • Requested battery draw test never done • Incorrect diagnosis • Attempted to charge for tightening a bolt • Blamed customer for the issue • Caused unnecessary out-of-pocket expense • Another Chevrolet dealership correctly diagnosed a warranty drivetrain failure A C8 Corvette is a highly electronic vehicle and requires proper troubleshooting. Athens Chevrolet did not investigate the issue and instead made assumptions. I strongly recommend Corvette owners and anyone with modern GM vehicles seek service elsewhere. More
Purchased a 2024 Tahoe from Mike Burge at Athens Chevrolet. He walked me through the different options and help me make an informed decision on options for my vehicle. I have gone back with questi Chevrolet. He walked me through the different options and help me make an informed decision on options for my vehicle. I have gone back with question about the way the truck was handling and Service was great in answering my questions and resolving the issues in a timely manner. I have also gone back and purchase a used car from the dealership for my daughter. Very informative people that answered all of our questions and helping us select the right warranty for her car.

Drove 4 hr round trip to buy 2020 Chevy Silverado 1500 with 90k miles on it. Specifically wanted to know everything checked out(mechanical/cosmetic) before I made the trip since I was bringing cashier che with 90k miles on it. Specifically wanted to know everything checked out(mechanical/cosmetic) before I made the trip since I was bringing cashier check. For the truck and on the way home started to "shudder" and shifting was acting funny. Got back in touch with salesman to let him know when I got home. Been in contact for 9 days now. Took to local Chevy dealer here and the transmission has to be replaced! Management is suppose to call me tomorrow but as of 10 days I have NOT been able to drive the truck I bought for 30k, and Athens management still has not reached out. I was sold a 2020 truck with 90k miles on it with a bad transmission that didn't even last 24hrs from pulling off lot. Talked to GM Mike and Rob and they said nothing there gonna do about it and he hung up on me! Bad business, sold a truck with a bad transmission, and they wash there hands day 1. More

A year ago I got an oil change there for my Volt. When the car said I was close to needing another, I scheduled an appt., but it was 2 weeks out.

I decided to get it done elsewhere since I was taking a trip soon. The new place showed me on the dipstick that it had been overfilled previously!! How could they mess up such a basic important thing? Now I'm worried about the longevity of the engine. Never to go back!! More
