Smoothest and easiest of the 10+ car transactions I've done I've seen all the usual car dealer tricks in the course of buying or leasing 10+ cars: bait-and-switch by the car salespeople, aftermarket junk "preap I've seen all the usual car dealer tricks in the course of buying or leasing 10+ cars: bait-and-switch by the car salespeople, aftermarket junk "preapplied" to the car, finance department rate changes or lease/loan term changes, delivery "mixups" that resulted in a car not having the options I was promised etc., Buying from Chevy of Puyallup was the easiest and smoothest car transaction I've had. Got a quote from them on a 2015 Chevrolet Equinoix via Edmunds PricePromise. They called within an hour of sending the quote to confirm the price. Their price was hundreds less than the next best quote, so I was a bit suspicious. I insisted on doing everything in writing via email and peppered them with questions. I already had financing so I wasn't going to be needing their financing (reducing their margin). I was extremely clear I didn't have the time, energy or patience for the usual song-and-dance or bait-and-switch. They were exceptionally polite and straightforward, with no "hard sell" and no effort to dance around the questions or provide misleading answers. It seemed like they really did want to sell the car at the price they offered, no gimmicks or gotchas... So I drove an hour to their dealership, saw the Equinox in question and spent 15 minutes with Jared Baker, the salesperson assigned to my transaction. (The internet folks call and then hand you off to a physical salesperson if it looks like you're going forward.) He was extremely laid-back and friendly. ZERO sales pressure. The Equinox and the pricing were exactly as advertised. As soon as they'd got the paperwork ready, I walked across to see Leanne Cash, the finance manager. (As an aside, you can't ask for a better name than "Cash" if you're a finance manager.) We spent 15 minutes on the paperwork. I was out the door as the owner of a brand new 2015 Equinox 45 minutes after I walked in... I picked up the car a few days later. I couldn't take it with me the day I did the paperwork since I'd driven there alone (ready to leave if there was shady business.) When I returned, they had it freshly detailed out front with the keys ready. I'd forgotten to bring an extra copy of my insurance card; they happily let me use their computer to login and print off new cards. I left 15 minutes after I got there. The whole transaction was easy, painless and very professional. Can't ask for more. (And no, I have not been compensated in any way for writing this.) When we're in the market again for a car, they'll be my first stop. I'm recommending them to friends and colleagues at work - not something I do often. If you're looking for a Chevy, you owe it to yourself to give them a try. More

New GMC Truck I recently purchased a new GMC truck from Harnish Auto Family. Throughout the process of my purchase, I was met with the utmost professionalism, prom I recently purchased a new GMC truck from Harnish Auto Family. Throughout the process of my purchase, I was met with the utmost professionalism, prompt service, and unparalleled attention to every detail. The unprecedented staff is knowledgeable, highly qualified, and experienced in the automotive industry. Located in Puyallup, the team at the Harnish family of dealerships goes above and beyond for each one of their customers. They spent an innumerable amount of time with me to ensure that I was familiar with all the accessories of the vehicle, an invaluable, but very important part of the car buying process and yet overlooked by many. You are not just treated like a car buyer, but instead a friend. I would highly suggest that when you are in the market for a new automobile that you stop by or give them a call; you will not be disappointed in your choice in working with them. They continue to be there for you long after your purchase is complete. They strive to be best and exceed expectations and they do!! More
One thing advertised, another reality Buick was running a $190 down, $190 lease special on encore. I filled out the online contract sheet-compete with detailed memo. Amanda called me not r Buick was running a $190 down, $190 lease special on encore. I filled out the online contract sheet-compete with detailed memo. Amanda called me not reading anything but name& number. She didn't know what I wanted, what I had, nothing.after I had to retell her all the details, she said she would call me back. Only after I filled out a feedback email did she call me- two days later. Two more days, two more phone calls we got to her bottom line. $1600 down and $400 per month, "but if you come down here we can probably fudge the numbers and do better". If you fudge numbers you have character issues. I want the advertised deal, not 8 times the down payment and double the monthly payment. No thanx. Avoid! More

treated horribly PLEASE BEWARE!!!! Worked with a salesman named Ryan. Bought a used vehicle from him at Harnish Chevy. The same day I drove it off the lot I noticed PLEASE BEWARE!!!! Worked with a salesman named Ryan. Bought a used vehicle from him at Harnish Chevy. The same day I drove it off the lot I noticed the transmission slipping. I called Ryan the same day. He told me to bring it back for the service dept to check it out. It took them a week to get back to me. I was told it WAS NOT the tranny. They said it was mis-firing. This went on until I had to take it to a transmission shop about a month later. They informed me exactly what I told Harnish in the beginning. IT IS THE TRANSMISSION!!!!!!!!! They are refusing to take the car back and they will not fix it! They found a sucker in me......A WOMAN! I now am carless because they took what I had for a down payment. They have no integrity. Please be advised they are exactly what people say about used car salesmen....…...SNAKES! More

But a very strict budget and wanting a newer car, I had the pleasure of speaking with Steven Backman. Who's a very family friendly and understanding salesman! I have also worked in sales and definitely have seen and been around the kind no one like....... But Steven stuck with us and worked on getting us a better car for our money, which wasn't very easy! We need special financing for this purchase, however even after my husbands BK we still have a awesome car!! I also would like to say Thomas Tate who helped us get the financing!! Thank you!! More
