Awful experience To preface, the MSRP on the truck was $60,600. Needless to say, I was expecting a reasonable amount of professionalism. Also, my father has been in ca To preface, the MSRP on the truck was $60,600. Needless to say, I was expecting a reasonable amount of professionalism. Also, my father has been in car sales for 35 years so I have a very realistic gauge of what reasonable customer service is in car sales. I called Jake Sweeney sales to confirm the availability/price of a truck. I reach "salesman" GARY REED who agrees to check and call me back. An hour later while sitting in the DRs office I receive a text stating "confirmed" but no info on what is confirmed. I call Gary for clarification and he states "I already told you I confirmed it". I explain again that I need to know the asking price, in a pretty frustrated tone Gary states the price. I then request to see the truck later that day and Gary aggressively begins requesting that I place a deposit on the truck if I am a "serious buyer". When I refuse, Gary states he has 5 other appointments that day and demands to know if I am at another dealership. I explained that I was at the DR and not going to buy a vehicle sight unseen that is only 2 hrs away. Gary replies "well I guess your not a serious buyer". Reluctantly, I move forward w/ scheduling an appointment. I arrive at the dealership and see Gary at the agreed meeting place. After he overlooks me several times he finally asks in a shocked condescending tone if I am Ryan. (I guess a guy in a wheelchair and sweats doesn't meet the criteria for a "serious buyer"). The 1st thing Gary does when we get to the truck is crank the stereo up so loud I expected the speakers to blow. Even though I was now worried the speakers may be damaged and I was extremely dissatisfied with the way I had been treated I decide to move forward with the purchase. We go back to Gary's desk and he disappears for about 10 minutes. After he returns we discuss numbers for a few minutes and then he asks me to wait while he takes his brother out to the vehicle he just bought to show him a few things. A while later Gary returns and we agree on a price and to remove a $250 document fee. Gary goes to discuss the terms with his sales mgr while I sit alone for at least 30 minutes. Fed up, I inform another salesman that I'm leaving b/c I'm tired of sitting around clueless. Gary then appears with the paperwork that still reflected the $250 fee. After I point it out Gary says his mgr would not remove it. The fact that Gary tried to sneak the fee past me combined with his awful service was too much. I thanked him for his time and went outside to leave. Another salesman came out to ask why I was leaving. I decided not to complain about Gary and blamed it on the $250 fee. After a few minutes I decided not to let my frustrations get in the way of buying the truck I wanted. While waiting to finalize the paperwork I noticed the truck had been moved and now has mud splattered on it. Gary says "I hit some mud no big deal". (Uh that's my new truck, It's a BIG deal!). I ask if someone will be cleaning the truck before I take it home. Gary says all the cleaning guys are gone. I offer to bring it back tomorrow to be cleaned and he says no, "I guess I'll clean it up some". (I had been there for hours why wasn't this done before the cleaning crew left!?). Finally the sale is complete and I am ready to learn all about my brand new truck. I go outside and Gary is no where to be found! The truck had been sprayed with a hose and tire shine thrown on half the wheels. I felt absolutely cheated, anyone who has purchased a brand new vehicle knows that the feeling you get when driving it off the lot for the 1st time while it is the cleanest it will ever be is what makes taking the depreciation hit of buying new worth it. In spite of the horrendous experience I had at Jake Sweeney, I had managed to enjoy my new truck. Until the day I opened the passenger door and saw a sticker slapped onto the PAINT of my BRAND NEW $60k TRUCK! The sticker says "Sold by Gary Reed" and is STUCK to the paint. The last 5 vehicles I have purchased have been GM made. When I purchase a vehicle I need to feel confident that the manufacturer will stand behind their product and in order to reach the manufacture I must go through a dealer. I no longer feel comfortable that I will be protected in the event that something goes wrong with my vehicle. This poses a significant problem when I am also forced to spend another $85,000 in modifications so I can drive it to work and continue to be a productive tax paying member of society. This truck is a lifeline for my family as I cant just go out and rent a car if there is an issue. Therefore, I certainly cant afford to be at the bottom of my dealers priority list when I need them most. Growing up in Cincinnati, the Jake Sweeney brand used to mean quality and safety in buying but not anymore. The only thing I'll remember about buying a GM vehicle from Jake Sweeney is that I was nothing more than appointment # 6 on Gary Reeds schedule and after you hand the money over you are on your own.

Car buying made easy! Last Saturday I visited 4 Chevy dealerships in the Tri-State area in pursuit of a 2016 Traverse. At Jake Sweeney, I was lucky enough to hook up with Last Saturday I visited 4 Chevy dealerships in the Tri-State area in pursuit of a 2016 Traverse. At Jake Sweeney, I was lucky enough to hook up with Chet Navey. By far, Chet was the most knowledgeable, professional and genuine salesperson I spoke with all day. There were a few particular items I wanted on the car, which he efficiently tracked down at an out of town dealership. The Traverse was transferred to Jake Sweeney the next business day and I picked it up the following day. Chet was very patient and informative explaining all the "bells and whistles" on this state of the art vehicle. I would strongly recommend Chet Navey for his exceptional customer service! Thanks Chet! More
