80 California Buick Dealers

This was totally seamless! - LianeBoninStarr

This was totally seamless! We got a good price on our trade-in (the dealership would probably have given us far less) and our new/used car was wonderful.

The sales reps took the time to show many many vehicles - Elaine

The sales reps took the time to show many many vehicles until I found the one that was perfect. He gave us space when we said we need to discuss but was near to ask additional questions.

Sales are ok. - apxpredator

Sales are ok. HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND SERVICE DEPARTMENT. Made appointment for 11:00. Arrived at 10:30 for service on Sierra EV (tire rotation). 2 hours in, I text service writer and he says “10-15 mins, almost done”. An hour later I go to desk. Can’t find Paperwork and coincidentally guy comes out of back saying that he “just needs to add oil change and parts” (ON AN EV). Woman comes out asking about oil change. I finally process out and have no idea if tire rotation was even done! Service writer comes out who I never saw in 3 hours and asks if everything is ok. Total disregard and disrespect for my time, unorganized, inept. I have no idea if work was even done. I will never go there again. I have two GMCs.

"I had a fantastic experience buying my GMC sierra at Dutton buick GMC! I cannot thank Tim Carney enough for his professionalism and help. He was incredibly knowledgeable and made the entire process smooth, easy, and, completely stress-free without any pressure. I felt welcomed and heard, and I absolutely love my new car. Highly recommend asking for Tim carney !"

Would say that out of all the dealers I've been to this - pdgz67180

Would say that out of all the dealers I've been to this has be the best experience I've ever had buying a vehicle. Everyone looking for a car should always give Carmax your time before you shop around. You wont regret it.

Very easy to work with. - Bonniqua

Very easy to work with. I didn’t have to wait very long, and they didn’t try to sell me anything.

Salesman Jason Alfaro besides being very knowledgeable, - surveyor

Salesman Jason Alfaro besides being very knowledgeable, went way beyond expectations in getting me the vehicle I wanted.

We purchased two cars at Swickard Buick GMC and - kangsster

We purchased two cars at Swickard Buick GMC and consistently service our cars here even though there are a few Buick dealers closer to a lot closer to our residence in downtown LA. Regarding service, it is effortless to schedule an appointment, we're greeted instantly and a service ticket is written up in short order. The vehicle is always service right, more quickly than promised, at fair prices, and communications is excellent. We even get text video logs of the technician's summary of vehicle condition. Our service writer has been Arthur Ontman for the past few visits and he's at the pinnacle of what's expected of a service writer. If you have a Buick/GMC and live in LA-Ventura County, there's no reason to consider an independent shop over Swickard and I'll continue to trek dozens of miles to this dealer for future service needs.

Very quick response from dealership to book auto service - gardunos5@att.net

Danny the service advisor is always on top of everything I need. Thanks for all you guys do.

I’m pretty disappointed with the experience I had with - Mgarcia

I’m pretty disappointed with the experience I had with the service department at Kellar Motors. I dropped my vehicle off at 9:30 AM expecting it to be looked at within a reasonable timeframe. After waiting 5–6 hours, my car still had not even been serviced. When I asked about the delay, I was told that I needed an appointment, even for a simple oil change. This was frustrating because that requirement isn’t posted anywhere in the service department or on their website, so there was no way to know that ahead of time. What made the situation worse was that I didn’t receive any updates during the entire time I was waiting. If appointments are required, especially for basic services like an oil change, that should be clearly communicated to customers up front so they can plan accordingly. I hope management looks into this and improves the communication process for customers. I’d be happy to update this review if the situation is addressed.

My experience has gone from bad to worse. - diversion86

My experience has gone from bad to worse. I needed another routine oil change but also had to fix a few other issues (TPS) so brought it back to the dealership for maintenance. For my mileage there were a handful of recommendations and I agreed to perform all except two. Passenger air cabin filter ($15 OTC) and engine filter ($20 OTC) since they are cheap filters and easy to do oneself. Not sure what happened with the communication but the cabin air filter was replaced for $130. Ouch but whatever. Then going further down I see they even nickel and dime for washer fluid? First off, I top off my reservoir with Rain-X once a month so I know it wasn't needed. I thought I was doing them a favor by letting them know a wash wasn't necessary since I have a LUV membership across the street. I will say after this experience, washing my truck after was more therapeutic and stress relieving than here. Highly doubt I will ever take my truck in again for routine preventative maintenance. Praying I don't have any mechanical issues that require me to bring it back here anytime soon. For over $1230 (with discount) I expect a lot better. Once my money has already been taken all I ever get is "sorry". Guess I need to find a better place to do my coolant fluid exchange soon - recommendations needed!

We were looking for an Acadia. - Jacquelinecourdygrace

We were looking for an Acadia. We called and worked with Justin, Carlos & Brenda everything was as they offered, friendly and stress free. Thank you Honors GMC!😁

Just recently purchased a used Buick Encore and needed to - barwinrb

Just recently purchased a used Buick Encore and needed to have the AC checked for a possible leak and had an additional warranty. I was shocked to see so many people working in the service department and how clean the work areas were. Anyway, Hong Nong walked me through the process of getting all the information needed and advised me depending on the issue you shouldn't have to pay for this with additional coverage. Anyway, they needed the car for about half a day, and he helped me get transportation back home. They cost more for the work to be done but I believe the work gets done right the first time and they will go out of their way to help the customer without pressure, just suggestions for work needed. Ask for Hong Nong the next time you go in. Tks Rob

Billy was amazing! - jrluvsmileyc

Billy was amazing! Super friendly, respectful and 1000% honest. I am a Senior Manager for a top sales company and I normally play the dunce when I shop but I do my own thorough research and Billy was completely honest, exactly what I look for when I hire. That said the dealer was very clean and had a great variety of vehicles.

I’ve called asking for my Service records three times... - CTSboy18

I’ve called asking for my Service records three times already and no one has gotten back to me! They didn’t fix my car correctly so I had to take it to another dealership!

Ellie K. - JRodela06

Ellie K. helped me through the purchase process when I found the perfect Escalade for my mom. She sent pictures because the website had not been updated, I drove over an hour to check out the Cadillac. Went over numbers and trade, the following week my mom had her well deserved Escalade Platinum. Some issues arose on the way home and Ellie scheduled me in right away with a loaner to check out the warnings. Some things could have been better since there were immediate issues(l understand buying a used vehicle), but overall a positive experience during the purchase process.

Great first time buying experience with the folks at - vivachavez

Great first time buying experience with the folks at Lehmer’s. The staff there treated my wife and I with kindness and respect from the moment we stepped foot on the dealership. The made the buying experience painless, not to mention gave us a great deal. We left feeling happy and optimistic about the dealer we chose to purchase our new GMC Canyon from. I also had a great first few dealings with their parts department! They were great help with my new accessories that I recently purchased as well.

Great service. - Terry sloman1

Great service. Fixed problem then washed car then sent lyft to get me. Very happy.

This dealership completely wasted months of my time and - abrahamkobi

This dealership completely wasted months of my time and held my money for a vehicle order that was never actually placed with GM. The worst part of the experience was dealing with Linda Sievers, the dealership’s Inventory Manager. If you value your time, avoid dealing with Linda entirely. Here is what happened. In November I placed a $1,000 deposit on a GMC Yukon Denali special order. I was told the typical delivery window was 90–180 days with many arriving closer to 90 days. What they failed to disclose is that the dealership did not even have allocation to order the vehicle. After weeks of asking for updates, Linda Sievers eventually explained that the dealership had only entered the order internally but it was NOT actually submitted to GM and was not in production. They took a deposit on a “special order” vehicle that was not even able to be ordered yet. Every follow-up after that was the same confusing runaround about “allocation,” “order cycles,” and “constraints.” Instead of taking responsibility for the situation, the responses were dismissive and unhelpful. Months later it got even worse. After continuing to wait, I was suddenly told that GM wasn’t building diesel Yukons at the time. Gmail - YUKON SPECIAL ORDER lin… So the dealership took a deposit for a configuration that wasn’t even being produced. At that point it became clear the dealership either: • does not understand how factory orders work, or • simply does not care if customers’ deposits sit there while nothing actually happens When I finally requested my $1,000 deposit refund, I had to escalate the issue and threaten a credit card dispute just to get the dealership to process it. Only then did management finally act. The entire experience was defined by: • misleading expectations during the sales process • months of wasted time • poor communication • and an inventory manager (Linda Sievers) whose approach to customers was dismissive and unprofessional. Buying a vehicle should not require constant follow-ups just to get basic answers. If you are considering ordering a vehicle from this dealership: Make sure they actually have allocation and can submit the order to GM immediately before giving them a deposit. And based on my experience: Avoid dealing with Linda Sievers if at all possible. There are plenty of GMC dealers in Southern California that treat customers far better. Take your business elsewhere.

I was in the market for a Hummer EV and test drove one at - etienneannaert

I was in the market for a Hummer EV and test drove one at Thorson, I've also brought my Hummer EV in for warranty repairs (hasnt been 400 miles yet). I had worked with a broker who had found me a Hummer EV deal in San Jose, and came to Thorson to test drive one. They had one I liked, and showed the Jose one of the sales reps the deal I had and said if they can match I'll get theirs instead. Took them almost two weeks to get back to me, but by that time I had already had one delivered to me. Fast forward 25 miles in- my hummer has an horrible dashboard rattle, a loose rear view mirror, quality issues with the dome light and trunk headliner, and a trunk that won't latch closed properly. Took it in with a reservation, I think the service reps name was Lola - no loaner provided. Picked up hummer a few days later, and they had only fixed the mirror and attributed the rattle to a loose tool in the back. Took it back two weeks later, because the trunk still wasn't fixed and it had a rattle. Got it back couple days later, trunk still isn't fixed and rattle wasn't even addressed. Now I'll be dropping car off again tomorrow. Really trying with this place, but not very professional to leave issues unaddressed (literally no line items written down for at least duplicating concerns or unable to duplicate concerns - just blank).

Very professional. - Steve

Very professional. Everyone was very knowledgeable. They followed up a few days later to see how everything was going.

My salesman Kevin was amazing. - niccolegarcia

With only 14,000 miles on my car, the battery went dead... - JaniceClark

With only 14,000 miles on my car, the battery went dead on a Saturday. At 1:45 I called the dealer to find out what to do. I was told by Carlos they didn't have my battery but I should call Monrovia. I called Monrovia and Eric told me to call Pasadena because they didn't have the battery either. No answer from Pas. Called Eric back and He told me to have AAA change battery due to "emergency situation - I'd be carless". Eric said O'Donnell would reimburse me for battery since it only had less than 15,000 miles. AAA changed battery, gave me battery printout and receipt. I went to O'Donnells and they got back to me 2 weeks later. Said they needed the battery. I called AAA and the battery was recycled. Why didn't Carlos or Eric tell me they would need the battery? AAA said all I needed was the printout and receipt.

I negotiated a lease with Thompson Chevrolet Buick GMC - Amin

I negotiated a lease with Thompson Chevrolet Buick GMC over a two‑week period. The finance manager sent me three written lease agreements, all showing the same residual value and terms. Based on these documents, I completed a credit application and scheduled a pickup appointment. After approval, the dealership informed me that the residual value they had used in all three agreements was incorrect and rescinded the deal. This occurred after my credit was pulled and after I had turned down other offers. The dealership had multiple opportunities to identify the error before sending repeated agreements and running my credit. This experience was unprofessional and caused unnecessary inconvenience.

I recently had one of the most frustrating dealership - Jon

I recently had one of the most frustrating dealership experiences I have ever encountered while trying to purchase a used 2025 GMC Sierra EV from Thorson Pasadena GMC. After seeing the truck listed on their website, I immediately called on a Friday and spoke with Walter. I explained my situation, my interest level, and my trade in details for my 2018 Ford Raptor. Walter had me complete the appraisal forms and gave me an acceptable offer on the trade in and assured me that he would make the truck available for me to buy on Monday. Because I live more than an hour away and had family commitments over the weekend, I could not come in sooner, and he acknowledged and agreed to hold the vehicle by placing it in service status. Monday morning, we confirmed my arrival time by text. Everything seemed squared away. After driving nearly an hour, I was two minutes away when I received a call from Chris informing me that the truck had just been sold. I still went inside the dealership to speak with the sales manager. Instead of any meaningful explanation or accountability, I got a simple shrug and a reminder that they “do not hold cars,” completely ignoring the fact that their team had already agreed to do exactly that. No real apology, no remorse, no ownership, just indifference. Chris and another associate, Jonathan, did offer to try to locate a similar truck at auction and deliver it to my home for inspection, which at the time felt like a decent attempt to make things right. Unfortunately, that promise turned into nothing as well. I never received a follow up call, not a single update, and no apology from anyone at the dealership. I was essentially ghosted after being told they would help correct the situation. I had gone out of my way to prepare my trade in, rearranged my schedule, and drove a long distance based entirely on their word. The lack of communication, broken commitments, and complete disregard for a customer’s time was incredibly disappointing. Thankfully, I found the same model Sierra EV at Culver City Chevy, where I was treated with professionalism and respect from start to finish. I would strongly caution anyone considering working with Thornton Pasadena GMC. My experience showed poor communication, poor internal coordination, and a willingness to make commitments they do not honor.

I spoke with a salesman on a Friday evening about buying a new van. I asked what colors it came in and he handed me a brochure. I asked him what the "out the door" price would be for a particular model and he said I'm not sure. I asked if he could possibly find out for me and his response was that he could call me the following Monday or Tuesday. I decided right then and there that this business didn't deserve my money. In my opinion, a vehicle is an investment and I expect all of my questions to be answered. I went to Bakersfield and drove my brand new van home the following Friday. So much for shopping local!
