Maita Chevrolet

Completely Shocked My dear beloved old car died after lasting a mere 479,821 miles and I needed to by a new car.

The transmission on the old thing suffered a spectacular failure (it was spectacular, I was there) and the cost of fixing it was more than the car was worth. I was driving my Dad's old truck to and from work (which is in Turlock, so I drive 175 daily to work and back at 14.1 mpg) and the fuel bills were killing me (even at $2.40/gallon and I shudder to think what would happen when prices went back up). I don't know anything about cars or buying them, but I've been doing research and narrowed my selection to three vehicles, the Volt the clear lead. I found myself near Maita while doing some errands and thought I'd stop and test drive one of the three vehicles I'd narrowed my focus to. They had a very nice used Chevy Volt on the lot in simply perfect condition. Mark took me for a test drive and he was able to answer all my questions and show me stuff I didn't know. The more I drove the Volt, the more I knew it was the car for me. I am a big guy (300 lbs.) and need some room, yet I was as comfortable in the Volt as if in my own bed. When we got back to the dealership, I thanked Mark for his time. He offered to run some numbers for me so I could see what I would need to buy. I agreed more out of curiosity than anything else. No one could possibly sell me a car today! They'd be out of there minds. I didn't think I could buy a car without a huge downpayment and all sorts of stuff (a trade-in, pay stubs, income tax records, and bank statements, for example), but Mark introduced me to Anthony who put together a deal on the spot that allowed me to buy the Volt right then and there. I was floored. This simply couldn't be. Yet, as I write this, my new Volt is sitting at my house charging away. The staff was incredibly helpful, for Mark for the test drive (and actually knowing his product thoroughly), through Anthony putting things together to make the purchase happen, and Thomas in the finance dept. (who, btw, is the author of Be Your Own Salmon, a great book on "swimming upstream in the wild river of life") who put the details in place. There wasn't any pressure. No one tried to fast talk me or work me over. The staff was like Joe Friday from Dragnet, "just the facts." Yet, they knew how to make things work for me, not some cookie-cutter client with everything in place. Seriously, what I didn't think was possible in my wildest dreams, Maita Chevrolet made happen. I walked in thinking a new car was an utter pipe dream for weeks to come and drove home in my new car. More

Ask for Nate! Excellent Service! Not a cheesy sales man! Nate along with every one else at Chevy were awesome! Last year i came into Chevy with not so great credit, not a lot of money down, and i was backwar Nate along with every one else at Chevy were awesome! Last year i came into Chevy with not so great credit, not a lot of money down, and i was backwards in the car i owned. They didn't try to push me on cars i couldn't afford and waist my time. Instead they worked so hard to get me into a brand new 2013 Chevy Sonic with only 42 miles on it and pay off my old car. I was shocked to say the least! Nate called to check on me in the future months to see how i liked my car. I then directed my father in law to Nate as well and he also bought his car from Nate. No hassle there amazing! Today i went to purchase a second vehicle for me and my boyfriend, again i was in a crunch. I needed a low payment because i already had a payment on the sonic. I went straight up asked for Nate and right away he said hi Amber! I couldn't believe it. It has been about a year since i bought my car from him and for him to remember my name showed i wasn't just another sale, he truly cared. I was on a time crunch today as well and Nate along with the others worked very hard and fast and we ended up walking out with a used 2014 Chevy Cruze!!! Again shocked!!! To sum it up i wont be going any where else to purchase my cars in the future, i found my dealership!! Thanks Nate and Thanks Maita Chevy of Elk Grove!! More

Courteous, knowledgeable service Very satisfied with the knowledgeable and courteous service received by Derek Rea. Negotiating price can be a trying experience when purchasing a car Very satisfied with the knowledgeable and courteous service received by Derek Rea. Negotiating price can be a trying experience when purchasing a car, but all concerned made it as pleasurable as possible with their warm and friendly manner and no-pressure service. Also Dan Navroth, who drew up the contract was timely and very efficient. Especially appreciated Derek driving the car I arrived in home for me while I drove my new Traverse home. In addition Derek went through great lengths to explain the many features of the car which was greatly appreciated. He gave me his card and told me to call any time for further information. Really appreciated him doing this. Hats off to all employees involved with our purchase. More
