I bought certified Buick Enclave 2012 from this location. There were couple of issues with my purchase experience. I first must say, price was excellent. Well, otherwise I would have not even gone there. Pri There were couple of issues with my purchase experience. I first must say, price was excellent. Well, otherwise I would have not even gone there. Price is my first criteria. But sales guy Alvaro Perez was the worst experience. He promised me so many things before purchase but he kept delaying things and some of it are not done even today, two months later. They charged me for Oil Change & Car Prep for $89 on day of purchase and told me that it will take time to finish this. I said okay. I went little late. They sold me vehicle without doing anything. 10 days later, Alvaro calls me and tells that he has to do that and did not do it at the time of purchase. A Cheater !!! Beware of Alvaro Perez !!! He also promised me that he will do touch up on two of the very very minor scratches. Two months since my purchase, till date, I am just waiting for him. I kept asking him so many times. He never said no. He just did not order touch up paint for me till date. Biggest Cheater in my perception. I would not recommend anyone to go there. Who knows, what all they can cheat on? More
This was a great experience for our family. We had looked at several used trucks, and came across Bellavia. Very close to rt 3 in NJ - which was easy to get to from Hudson County. They had a large selection at several used trucks, and came across Bellavia. Very close to rt 3 in NJ - which was easy to get to from Hudson County. They had a large selection of used GMC and Chevrolet Trucks - so we decided to make a deal, trade in our old Toyota and we got a black GMC Acadia. Gil was very friendly - the entire dealership was friendly. Overall a great experience at this store. More
I highly recommend Bellavia Chevrolet and GM Kevin Holdorf. My family combined.. (me, my husband, my son, my sister and my brother-in-law) has purchased around 20 vehicles over the years. I recently Holdorf. My family combined.. (me, my husband, my son, my sister and my brother-in-law) has purchased around 20 vehicles over the years. I recently directed a work friend to them and she bought a new SUV. The staff has always been amazingly helpful, the financing is easy and well explained, the leasing options are great. We like to walk in, pick a car and come back in a day or two with the car completely ready and all papaerwork in order. No haggling is needed and the service center is great as well. They do their best to inform of any special deals and if you are a repeat customer, there are all kinds of loyalty perks. It's not even Chevrolet that I am loyal to, it's this particular dealership and Kevin. Thanks for all the great years of superior service. Kit and Lou Tedesco More

Bellavia Buick/Chevy is a volume highway dealer. I shopped there for a Chevy SUV. It was my very first stop, so at that point, I was undecided between a Traverse and Equinox, and I was also unaware o shopped there for a Chevy SUV. It was my very first stop, so at that point, I was undecided between a Traverse and Equinox, and I was also unaware of what these might cost to lease. The salesman Alvaro, was very nice, was knowledgeable about the vehicles, took me for test drives in both, and provided me with a competitive price for the Traverse once I settled on that model. His numbers were clear, straightforward and complete. I appreciated that. He was also not pushy at all, allowing me the "mental" room I needed to evaluate the cars, and the deal he was presenting. He answered all my questions in a clear manner. He applied no pressure. There was actually nothing I didn't like about this guy or the dealership. If it were the third or fourth dealership I visited, I would have probably leased from Bellavia based on my positive experience with this salesman. Unfortunately (For Alvaro), after his and two other quotes, I priced the same car out at another dealership late one night over the internet, and that price was the best of the four quotes I received. The internet transaction was great and fast, and the dealer is a small, local "Main Street" dealer, with low pressure salespeople (like Alvaro). I liked that a lot. So, lo siento, Alvaro, but I leased elsewhere this time. I will, however, definitely shop Bellavia in the future, will most certainly ask for Alvaro, and would recommend this dealership without hesitation. A year later, I returned to Bellavia looking for a used car for my son, which I did purchase from Alvaro. The deal was good, but as I learned later, the cost of a GMPP extended protection plan that I purchased was high. SERVICE EXPERIENCE: Very good. I have found them to be fair and honest, with little to no up-sellng. Based on an initial visit where they fixed a problem that another dealer did/could not, I have made Bellavia my choice to service my three GM products. More
It was an extremely pleasant experience, all the way around. I went to Mazda, this dealership that dealership and the high pressure and nonsense that you have to go through just to test drive and look around. I went to Mazda, this dealership that dealership and the high pressure and nonsense that you have to go through just to test drive and look at is ridiculous. At Bellavia, there was none of that, I test drove 5 different types of vehicles, the salesman Alvaro, had no problem, with that, when I finally settled on a model and make and style, I went back and test drove the final three. Of course, then the negotiation began, it took me two weeks to get the deal done, because I am a tough negotiator, but it was painless, uneventful and fairly done. Service and follow up have been excellent. Nothing but good things to day about Bellavia. My boyfriend also bought his truck there last year Aug. and had the same wonderful experience I did. I highly recommend this dealer. More
