Running scams The car I bought from here has had issues since the day after I drove it off the lot.

The check engine light came on, suspiciously in just the amount of miles I needed for the vehicle to do a full emissions check. So it's as if someone cleared the code and tried to sell it. And there's a way to check cleared codes, I'm not dumb. The car was not smogged, which I unfortunately found out after I bought it. So they had to fix the issue which the check engine light and smog it. Thankfully it's good now but I should have never had to go back and do all that. Oh and Red the manager doesn't know anything, my 5 year old could do a better job. He didn't know anything about the smog issue and I had to explain things to him multiple times, it's like he just started working there. Oh and the guy that does the financing sucks, he failed to even let me know my car came with a warranty, the women working there one day told me about that. Kind of concerning. Oh and when I was there, they were selling a woman a car that looked like sh**. They didn't even bother to detail it before selling it, it looked like something in an impound lot. I actually requested to speak to the General Manager, Mike or whatever, never got a call back. He's too scared to talk to a mad customer so he has his minions do it for him, pathetic excuse for a manager, but not surprising because most of these reviews are terrible, and that is a reflection of leadership. The only decent person I've dealt with in all this is Ray in the Service Department, he's awesome and the only decent employee you people have working there. I am also reporting this dealership to anyone I can, including the DMV and anyone else that has business knowing what a scummy dealership this is. Lesson learned to never shop here and I will let everyone know not to. More

DO NOT GO HERE! THEY ARE A BUNCH OF SNAKES! Save your time and money and DON'T GO TO THIS DEALER! THEY ARE SNAKES!!! They are the epitome of sneaky salesmen. We went down to look at a used Tahoe Save your time and money and DON'T GO TO THIS DEALER! THEY ARE SNAKES!!! They are the epitome of sneaky salesmen. We went down to look at a used Tahoe on Saturday afternoon, liked it, and they ran our credit and came back with all the info on what our payment would be. We live over an hour away, so said that we would go get my car (which we were trading in) and be back the next morning to finish off the deal. We even offered to leave a deposit to make sure they knew we were serious. OVER NIGHT, they raised the price of the Tahoe almost $1,600 online! Before we made the drive back down there, my husband wanted to make sure they were going to honor the price that they gave us the day before. THEY REFUSED TO HONOR THAT PRICE!!! AGAIN, SAVE YOUR TIME AND MONEY AND GO SOMEWHERE THAT TREATS CUSTOMERS BETTER, IS ETHICAL, AND WHERE THEY ARE NOT SNAKES!!! More

Breaking CA law (see below) by not advertising the actual price of vehicles and communication from the sale people here is the least professional I have ever dealt with. They also do not accurately list price of vehicles and communication from the sale people here is the least professional I have ever dealt with. They also do not accurately list prices, so don't bother wasting your time. I spent over a week trying to get specifics from the sales staff with never more than a sentence response with little to no details that were requested. Under California Vehicle Code section 11713.1(e), when car dealers publish advertisements for cars and trucks, and those ads include asking prices, then the dealers are prohibited from selling the advertised vehicles for more than their advertised prices, unless the ads specifically list expiration dates that have passed. Further, Section 260.04(b) of the regulations promulgated by California's Department of Motor Vehicles further mandates that advertised vehicles "must be sold at or below the advertised price irrespective of whether or not the advertised price has been communicated to the purchaser."

Worst service department I ever experienced Had my 2018 2015hd serviced by their department for the first two services , 15,000 miles it is due for the 3rd service . Can't keep the truck in one Had my 2018 2015hd serviced by their department for the first two services , 15,000 miles it is due for the 3rd service . Can't keep the truck in one lane, check front end idler arm and pitman arm worn out from never being greased by the dealers service department. Make appointment for a recall, 3rd service and front end problem. After being told truck is finished, look at grease fittings on the upper ball joints, they were never greased. Had the service manager come out and look, you would think he would be concerned, being it was just in to replace parts hat weren't greased. He couldn't give a rats xxx. Must hope they make it out of warranty so you have to pay them to replace. More

Do NOT come to this dealership. You will regret it. Go anywhere else but here. These people suck. They are snakes. They have and will continue to lose business if management isn’t replaced. anywhere else but here. These people suck. They are snakes.

Do not come here for maintenance Shortly after purchasing my used vehicle the transmission failed. It was no big deal since the vehicle was covered under warranty. To ensure the work Shortly after purchasing my used vehicle the transmission failed. It was no big deal since the vehicle was covered under warranty. To ensure the work was done correctly, I brought my chevy here to drop and fix the transmission. One month after the repair I took my car in for routine maintenance at my trusted local mechanic. He told me one part on my transmission was either overlooked or otherwise unrepaired because the newly rebuilt transmission was slowly leaking fluid. After about $300-$400 later my car was fixed by a mechanic that did not specialize in Chevy's. I went back to this dealership and told them the issue, and they gave me that money back as a credit to go towards future maintenance. While I'm upset that the shop skipped a step, I appreciate the service manager making this issue right. More

Clever but typical price tricks Unless you have a family member in the business, one needs to be very watchful for price irregularities. The price of our car jumped up over $800 whi Unless you have a family member in the business, one needs to be very watchful for price irregularities. The price of our car jumped up over $800 while we were there, and an even larger, unneeded GAP fee was added quietly to the price breakdown as well. The New Motor Vehicle Board was a good place to voice our concerns since the dealership stated that I must be confused. More

Worst Customer Service in Years! Worst customer service I've had in years!!! It's as if they could care less if you are a future return customer or not; preferably not, it seems. I Worst customer service I've had in years!!! It's as if they could care less if you are a future return customer or not; preferably not, it seems. I called for an appt to finally address the recalls (air bag, etc.) before the end of the year. Ray Ojeda, in the service dept said he couldn't book the appt unless all parts were in, he checked, said they were in and booked for the next week. We planned for me to leave it overnight to use the shuttle service next day. When I called the next day Ray said they haven't even started because all the parts weren't in. WTH?!? 2 days with nothing done and he "hopes parts are in by the end of the week, next week at the latest". I go ahead and my car as I do have a second vehicle, although it's a truck and I don't like to drive it everyday. I ask Ray if they can clean my car to ease the pain of this experience and he says "yeah, I'll have 'em clean it". The next week I pick it up. The exterior's been washed and a light vacuum but there are "scratches" on my brand new windshield (from taking the dash off). Thankfully they wiped off. Point is they weren't wiped off before returning the car to me cleaned. After driving my car for a day or so I noticed that my cruise control, which I use often and reflexively, was not where it normally is. Upon closer investigation I see that the steering wheel is off center about a quarter turn to the right. WTH? I call Ray to inform him of my discovery and he's doubtful that they had to remove the steering wheel but went to check. Yep, they did, let's make another appt; we did for the following week. I called on Thurs. before my Monday appt to confirm. Ray says, "I don't see an appt for you but just drop it off." By now I'm done w/Ray and Chevy Fairfield. But I need my steering wheel on straight. I ask for a complimentary detail of my car for this unpleasant experience. "Oh no...That's a $300 service!" I then do a search of reviews to find out that this is the norm for customer service there. I called a phone # which was left by a Chevy dealer customer service rep in response to several of the complaints on Yelp to voice my complaint. I spoke w Ilene at Subaru who said she would arrange a detail and wanted to make me a future customer. When I picked up my car, the steering wheel was on straight but I get a better car cleaning at 5 Star car wash. I followed up w/Ilene to inform her of the substandard "detail", sent her a video of the job but was directed to the new service manager at Chevy, Chris Hanson. He finally responded by email offering a detailing but would not take a phone call from me on 3 occasions. So much more to say but will end with: I've been drooling over the Equinox for years now. I paid cash for my '09 Pontiac Vibe, first new car and will be doing the same when I save for the Equinox or equivalent but NOT to Chevy Fairfield!!!! Shady business practices, lousy customer service and substandard work! More
