Thanks These guys will take care of you long after the purchase. They truly care about treating their customers the right way. I'd use them again. These guys will take care of you long after the purchase. They truly care about treating their customers the right way. I'd use them again. More
Don't Trust These Cheats & Liars! I bought a car from these folks, was promised two free oil changes. Took car in for second oil change and was told I had a time limit on getting thos I bought a car from these folks, was promised two free oil changes. Took car in for second oil change and was told I had a time limit on getting those two oil changes. Checked my paperwork from the sale and did not see any time or mileage limit on the two free oil changes. Was totally surprised when I was charged $76 for the oil change instead of getting it for free. To make matters worse, they send me a coupon for their regular oil change price at $49 and still charge me more! Wrote to the general manager Cory Covert, who never responded to my message. Pretty bad when the owner/GM does not respond to customer concerns! I have purchased 3 vehicles from these people over the last 7 years and this is how they treat their better regular customers. Take this to heart as this is how they will likely treat you after you buy a car from them. Oh, and their service is very slow and their people do not communicate very well either, so take your car for service elsewhere as it will be faster, cheaper, and someone will actually give a crap if you are a customer!

Engine Failures after Several Attempts to repair Back in January 2018 I started visiting the service dept. at Covert. Over a course of 9 months this service dept has attempted to repair my engine, ad Back in January 2018 I started visiting the service dept. at Covert. Over a course of 9 months this service dept has attempted to repair my engine, ad have failed multiple times. Opposed to requesting a Field Engineer from GM the Service Manager Alex authorized repairs that left me with multiple return trips to the dealer, for the same engine and alike repairs. I have documentation this service department reused part(s) from previous repairs. The Dept. has taken short cuts to repair my vehicle, thus creating more engine needed repairs. Currently my engine is experiencing more problems due to the lack of better judgement. The Dept. manager does not take responsibility for their short comings, blames GM as a company as to why better practices aren't rendered. More
Buyer Beware- Doesn't disclose transit damage on new cars I purchased a new 2018 Yukon XL from this dealership the end of 2017. Everything about the transaction went smooth, and at the time, I would have give I purchased a new 2018 Yukon XL from this dealership the end of 2017. Everything about the transaction went smooth, and at the time, I would have given them a 5 star review. However, over the past few months, my front bumper started to shift, causing the metal to stick out over the wheel well, and the paint to chip. I took the car to my local GMC dealership, and the body shop thought it was strange, so cost to repair was submitted to GMC to cover as a factory defect. GMC responded saying the car was damaged in transit to the Covert dealership, therefore it would not be covered as a defect. They also brought to my attention there was a documented damage report to the front bumper of my car in GMC's national system. Covert did not disclose this information to me at the time of purchase. Covert responded they are not required to share this information with the buyer. If it is not legally required, then it is a business decision- I believe the decision to with hold pertinent information on the history of a new car is fraudulent. My recommendation to buyers approaching this dealership is to ask for the VIN number on vehicles you are considering, and run the number by GMC to check there is no prior history on record that you should be aware of when you make your purchase decision. Or shop at a dealership that is no so covert. More
Dealer wanted me to drop off car for 3-4 days I made an appointment for having an engine issue resolved. The dealer contacted me and told me that I would have to leave the vehicle for 3-4 days in I made an appointment for having an engine issue resolved. The dealer contacted me and told me that I would have to leave the vehicle for 3-4 days in order for them to queue up for having diagnostics run. I told them if there was a three to four day wait, then why not make the appointment for when I could get the diagnostics done on the same day. The service person then suggested that it would be 3-4 days no matter when I dropped the car off, but if I waited till the 19th of Sept, they could then provide a loaner. But that it would still take three to four days after I dropped the car off. This dealer has recently lost a deal from me and I bought this Encore at another place. I have a strong feeling that this is why they are treating me so badly. There is absolutely no reason they cannot schedule me so that the diagnostics cannot be scheduled and completed the same day, especially when I am letting the dealer choose the day for the appointment.

PLEASE GO SOMEWHERE ELSE!! If I could give 0 stars, I would. I had to go through management just to get them to stop the bait and switch they were trying to pull over on me. I w If I could give 0 stars, I would. I had to go through management just to get them to stop the bait and switch they were trying to pull over on me. I will NEVER be buying anything from this dealership again, nor would I ever recommend such a terrible place. Now I am currently fighting for warranty issues I never even asked to be signed up for. No one is willing to help and has treated me like a joke. More
Best in class service Let me start by saying this has been the best sales experience I’ve had buying a used vehicle from a great dealership such as Covert. My salesman Keit Let me start by saying this has been the best sales experience I’ve had buying a used vehicle from a great dealership such as Covert. My salesman Keith Schwartz wouldn’t let certain obstacles get in our way and made the sales experience much less stressful and had a great positive attitude with me from the beginning to end. His knowledge and experience showed as he helped me get through the buying process with such ease and confidence.. I’d like to thank him again for finding me the perfect truck that I wanted and I highly recommend him and his finance team. Thanks again Covert and needless to say I will stay loyal to your dealership and looking forward to my next vehicle purchase in the future! More
Amazing! We were recommended to Keith by my parents. I wasn’t really in the market for a car just yet, but my mom and dad said they were super great and that K We were recommended to Keith by my parents. I wasn’t really in the market for a car just yet, but my mom and dad said they were super great and that Keith would take care of us. The whole process was super easy and Keith went out of his way to find the right car and at the best price possible. He actually listened unlike most salesmen. Most of the time you feel like the whole dealership is just pushing you so they can just get a sale, but that vibe did not exist here. I am soo happy with my car!!! More
Will Never Go Back For Service or Sales Entire experience from Sales to Service was unpleasant. To begin with, I had been driving a GMC pickup but as I'm 62 years old, I was leaning toward a Entire experience from Sales to Service was unpleasant. To begin with, I had been driving a GMC pickup but as I'm 62 years old, I was leaning toward an Acadia due to the ease of getting in and out of the vehicle. I was already pre-approved by my credit union so essentially had a check in my hand ready to buy. My wife and I drove both the Sierra and Acadia. This was in November of 2016 and the new 2017's were already out. This particular Sierra was a 2016 model and had been on Covert's lot for almost a year, so they were offering some good incentives. The Acadia was a 2017 model with a lot of bells and whistles, so it was going to cost more. I presented my pre-approval letter to the salesman and said that if they'd come down to my approval amount, I'd take the Acadia. When he said that management wouldn't come down to that figure, we settled on the Sierra, our second choice. This was around 7:30 or7:45 in the evening and the salesman seemed eager to go home. It took another 2 hours to complete the paperwork and we didn't even get to take the vehicle home. The finance guy kept trying to increase the amount that the salesman quoted. I found out the following day by searching their inventory online, that there were at least 4 other Acadia's on there lot that would have fallen within my budget. I believe that the salesman just wanted to make the sale so that he could go home and that Covert wanted to get rid of their older inventory. They didn't really want to sell me what I actually wanted. It went down hill from there. I had been in twice for service and once for warranty repairs. Basically, they were all unpleasant experiences for one reason or another. Poor service, unresolved warranty issues, not delivering when promised, etc. I kept trying though. On my third visit for service a couple of days ago, I had an 8 o'clock appointment for an oil change and tire rotation. After an hour, I noticed that my name wasn't on the status board that showed vehicles waiting, in progress, or completed. I asked the clerk about it and she said she's ask my advisor about it. After an hour and a half, my truck was finally pulled around. I probably would have been OK with this, but when I mentioned to my service advisor that it shouldn't take that long to just change the oil and rotate the tires, he starts giving me this attitude about, "it always takes 1 1/2 hours" as he's rolling his eyes. I know from my many years that it doesn't. I was then told that it was going to cost me $76 which came as a surprise. I have to admit that I was accustomed to the Cadillac service next door where they gave you free oil changes, tire rotations, and washes for 4 years or 48,000 miles, so I should have read the sales contract more closely. But I've had my truck for less than 2 years and I expected more. When I said that I'd be taking my vehicle elsewhere next time because it was cheaper, the service advisor continued with his attitude with, "it would have cost you over $100 to have it done anywhere else" in this very condescending voice. After all of my other visits, I received a survey from GM asking to rate my experience, But, you know it's funny, after complaining to the service manager about the way I was treated and that I'd never be back, I never got that survey...

I wish I could give “0” stars! I have a 2015 Yukon Denali. I dropped my vehicle off for a repair. When I picked it up, the GPS was not working. I took it back in and was told that I I have a 2015 Yukon Denali. I dropped my vehicle off for a repair. When I picked it up, the GPS was not working. I took it back in and was told that I need a new antenna. I also had them to look at the DVD system that isn’t working (which I have already had replaced once). They are giving me a discount to fix these items, but I should not have to pay for anything since the antenna broke while in their care and the DVD has already been replaced once (and I have had the vehicle for barely 2 years). When I got my car back this time, there was a dent in the dash. I should not have to wonder what will be broken next when I take my car to Covert! They are supposed to fix it, not break it further! I had a 2011 Yukon Denali that I loved and didn’t have any problems with. The 2015 Yukon has had nothing but problems. It seems as if their quality is going downhill. Not only has Covert lost a customer, but GMC has as well! More
