"Lets talk about RONDA MCLEAN.I have had my car serviced..."
- Krys CLets talk about RONDA MCLEAN. I have had my car serviced in the past at Suttle for 2 years straight and NEVER experienced what I did today 1/4/2021. Im visiting the area for the holidays and my transmission decides to give me a run for my money, I had the vehicle towed there 12/31/20 in hopes of them getting it in on Monday 1/4 since her team was off Friday....cool. Here we are Monday and the appts at 7:00am...mind you again...Im visiting...so any info in a timely fashion is critical so I may return home for my children to return to school. Well I have phone record of me calling her and leaving her a couple of messages...no response...call the service dept to be directed...no response but “ it hasnt been diagnosed” so I send my sister who lives up the street to go check because again...I NEED TO GET HOME TO FLORIDA and Im vehicle-less. Im on the other end of the phone when I hear how NASTY AND RUDE AND PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE this woman is to my sister when she is merely trying to get a status of my vehicle so that I know what next steps to take...its a but stressful when your dealing with a deployed husband and have to make serious financial decisions in his absence. My sister proceeds to speak with the manager which in our opinion was very understanding who ultimately got RONDA to call me at freakin 5pm...(did i mention my car got dropped off NYE and my appt was 7am today?) just to say I needed a new transmission. Soooo you couldn't just tell me that from the beginning??? I had to wait a full day to say a new trans was needed? Needless to say I had my car removed from the dealership because its service like that, that makes me NEVER want to come back and be mistreated and mishandled like that again. Im very disappointed with her attitude and customer service and I really hope her manager sets her straight because you never know who you are dealing with. I wasnt not once nasty to this woman and I was honestly excited to have my car taken care of there since Ive had prior work and services done there in the past and she was excellent. Very sad to see the way thinvs turned out and for what? She needs to fix her attitude and be very careful on how she communicates with her customers because the next one may not be so nice as to simply go see a manager. Very very disappointed in Suttle.

- lstrick5This was one of the best car buying experiences I’ve ever had. If you decide to buy here ask for John Jones (JJ). From the first phone call to the signing he was Johnny on the spot Mr. Hustle. He is outstanding!

- kbwrobI purchased a used Buick Regal in 2012 from Suttle Motors in Newport News and have been taking the car back to Suttle service department ever since for all of the maintenance. Last week I took the car in for an oil change and for the team to look into my check engine light that had just recently come on. Ronda, my service manager, who is always professional and up front with my husband and myself about the goings on with my car, assured me it should be an easy fix and the car would be ready for pick up the next day. I picked up my car the next evening and drove it home with no issues. The drive home was about 6 minutes. The next morning, as I was driving my daughter to school, the car cut off in the middle of the street after driving for 10 minutes! This had NEVER happened before, not in all the 7 years I have had the car. After the car cut off, I was able to get it to start after 2-3 minutes, but it was completely undriveable. I had to have the car towed back to Suttle service department that day, and with no car, I was unable to go to work where I am a nurse. After the team had a chance to look at my car, I was told that the car needed a new engine. What the..? The car was perfectly operable before it went in for service just two days before. I had been driving the car everyday to and from work. EVERYDAY for 7 years! How can I need a new engine? Ronda, who is always great, said she would see what could be done. I waited patiently for a return call. When I called Suttle 6 days later, I was informed the car still needed a new engine and the cost would be $6000-$7000, and I would receive no assistance from GM at all. The best they could do would be to put me in touch with a sales person to see if I could get a trade on the car. What!? So, lets re-cap, I took my car in for an oil change and some MINOR work and now I need a new car? I am livid. My car was not broken or even driving weird when I took it in. My husband and I work hard. We have one son in college and a teenage daughter at home. I need my car and I was not banking on having to make any car payments because I paid the car off so I could afford tuition for my son to go to college. I am disappointed in the solutions I was offered from Suttle. I am angry and I feel totally taken advantage of. I have been a loyal paying customer for 7 years. I did get a phone call from the Suttle sales rep wanting to "help me out with my car situation due to the high cost of a new engine" but I honestly don't want to purchase another vehicle from Suttle as I HAVE NO FAITH in Suttle Motors anymore. Buyers beware!

- FAYTracy Leggo exceeded our expectations No sales tricks.. None of this make you wait and wear you down. Just honest facts about the vehicles and true service...helping us find what we needed. Of course we shopped around but the deals offered elsewhere were far.inferior....and at other dealerships we were subjected to the typical sales schmuck. Tracy treated us like clients rather than brainless idiots Very very happy!!!!
Read More"Service Department"
- KarenOn two occasions during the past year we scheduled appointments for an oil change. Both appointments were early in the morning since we would be waiting for the vehicle. On both occasions, a 7:30/8:00 appointment was finished between 11:30/12:00. The service department was aware that we would be waiting for the vehicle. This last appointment was for a problem with the vehicle. Since the error code was not stored in the computer, and the service department could not reproduce the error, the service department staff told my husband that the problem was the way I was driving (the vehicle was adjusting for my driving style). My son drove the vehicle, and was able to reproduce the error. , The vehicle was taken in with the error displayed, the service department worked on finding the problem for several days and finally fixed the issue -- not my driving.

- Jeff32Not only was he very polite and professional, he was honest. If he didnt know something he would let us know and also help us find it. We made an agreement for the price of the car and our trade in value. The price was slightly more than what we wanted, so my wife and I discussed it and eventually came back 3 days later. Keith kept the paperwork that we had when we made the agreement and it was exactly the same. The process was fast and efficient, and a great experience overall. Keith at Suttle Motors is the person I would recommend to my friends, because I know that if they talk with him, they will be very happy.
Read More"Loyal customer, Extremely Disappointed and Insulted"
- KooperscupcakeOver the last 4 years we have purchased 3 vehicles from Suttle, 2 of which we paid cash for. We went in over the weekend to pay cash for a 4th vehicle and couldn’t come to an agreement. We previously worked with Larry when we purchased 2 vehicles at the same time. The 3rd time we worked with Daniel. Both of these salesmen went to great lengths to make sure we didn’t walk away without our vehicle. I thought being a loyal customer actually meant something. I realize now it doesn’t mean much at all. This was our dealership, I have always highly recommended them to family and friends. When looking for a vehicle they’re the first place We go to. Up until present I would have given them a 4.5 to 5 star rating. I’m having a hard time giving 2 stars after this recent experience. Wouldn’t it be smart on their part to budge a little off the price to keep a repeat customer coming back again and again? We have the need to purchase 2 or 3 more vehicles in the next couple of years. Do we need to look for a new dealership?
