I bought a truck here in September 2020. During the sale I was told that since I was a new Chevy owner I would receive a free 5yr/60,000 mile warranty, an upgrade from the standard 3yr/36,000 mile warranty. I was told that since I was a new Chevy owner I would receive a free 5yr/60,000 mile warranty, an upgrade from the standard 3yr/36,000 mile warranty. Turns out that the warranty cost was hidden in a line item on my deal sheet that only had acronyms as a descriptor. I guess I can't prove it now but I know what happened. I also understand that I really should have questioned more. The salesman was alright but the finance guy was clearly proficient at pulling a fast one on people. Fast forward six months. and 10,941 miles. My brand new Chevy 1500 Z71 suddenly has a debilitating oil leak. I mean oil just cascading out of the seal/plate between the engine and transmission. Clearly warranty related. I have it towed to Gene Messer. I spoke with someone on the phone who assured me it would be quickly addressed that day. Well come to find out that person works at a Houston call center and has no idea what is going on at the Lubbock location, which I was told be my assigned service agent that I only know as Jared. Jared tells me it will be several days before it will get even diagnosed. Then he tells me all the loaners are out and they can't get me a rental. I don't have family here so my options are getting a rental for an undetermined period of time or being without transportation. I have a full time job and a small business so transportation is a must. Jared tells me that Chevy will reimburse up to $35/day for a rental if it is determined to be warranty related and I rent a GM vehicle from Enterprise. Well turns out you can't get a rental car or less than $60/day in Lubbock. So I am eating that. Then the truly infuriating part. Jared, who is supposed to be my primary contact for everything service related, completely ghosts me. It's now be four days with no response to texts or voicemails, much less him picking up the phone when I call. As I write this I have been on hold with the service department for 30 minutes. Now I understand that they couldn't have knowingly sold me a problem vehicle and that that is out of their control. But how they handled it from that point is entirely within their control. I should have had the vehicle towed to a small town dealership and I should have shopped elsewhere. Let my lessons guide you so you do not suffer the same consequences. More
My car was towed to Gene messer Chevrolet on the 19th of November. I have waited patiently for a courtesy call to let me know what the plan is. I have called several times and I always get the same answer November. I have waited patiently for a courtesy call to let me know what the plan is. I have called several times and I always get the same answer "let me talk to our transmission guy and I will call you back " They have never called me back. I would definitely not recommend this shop, nor would I purchase a vehicle here. More

Awful service department I called the service department because I had a oil leak on my truck. I have very limited days off so they scheduled me for 7am on my only day off so I called the service department because I had a oil leak on my truck. I have very limited days off so they scheduled me for 7am on my only day off so they could have it for the day. When I got there the service tech walked up and without even looking at my truck informed me that I would have to leave the truck for at least 6 days before they could even look at it. They did not offer me a loaner or any help at all More
Not a place to go for single moms Last spring went to test drive a vehicle. Sales men were at the front as we walked to view the 4runners. I kept waiting for some to approach us but ig Last spring went to test drive a vehicle. Sales men were at the front as we walked to view the 4runners. I kept waiting for some to approach us but ignored my presence. A couple parked a few distance where I was standing. The salesmen immediately rushed as they were getting off their vehicle to attend them. I immediately left in my car and called customer service and I was promised that I would get a courtesy call but never did. I was hoping that this time around it would be different when I was inquiring about a vehicle and was not surprised with their customer results. Junior tried his best and I would recommend you seek his assistance in purchasing a vehicle. I honestly can say he tried his best but the persons in charge are money hungry. More
