Purchased a 2015 Yukon Denali, had them do a walk around, and also had them put an extended Warranty. To get an extended warranty they have to do an inspection. I received the vehicle and before I even put 1 and also had them put an extended Warranty. To get an extended warranty they have to do an inspection. I received the vehicle and before I even put 100 miles I had it at the shop. The shocks were shot, compressor had to be replaced, the Antenna needed to be replaced. Warranty denied all because it was to soon with how many miles I put on it. Contacted Derrow Shirkey, was told AS is, even with there inspection, and added warranty. They don't care, def buyer be ware, they are not looking out for there customers. More

Bought a 2017 pacifica from this dealership. 25 hours into ownership less than 250 miles drive and the car has a check engine light. The dealership then expected me to pay 1/2 the cost to fix th 25 hours into ownership less than 250 miles drive and the car has a check engine light. The dealership then expected me to pay 1/2 the cost to fix the repairs. Which were estimated 2344.89. Then when I mentioned how unfair it was to have to dish out money in repairs when the car had literally just drove home. They told me to come pick it up. That they wouldn't touch it. All they care about it the sale. Do not shop here. Many bad reviews on service. They also claimed to have rotated my tires and perform an oil change but the front tires were gauged a 6/20. Who puts bald tires on the front of a fwd car. Do not shop here! More

Purchasing the Vehicle was a great experience, even worked on getting it shipped to me. Once I got it I drove it for a week and noticed things, the Navigation wasn't working, I made an appointment sinc worked on getting it shipped to me. Once I got it I drove it for a week and noticed things, the Navigation wasn't working, I made an appointment since added a warranty. The same day I scheduled the appointment the side step stopped working. Ok least I already had an appointment. The shop called saying it needs front shocks, which makes sense why was little bouncy, the antenna is bad for the Navi, the motor went bad in the side step, also needs brakes something fierce. Estimated $4500 in work. I call up Brad the warranty guy trying to make sure what was covered, and asked about there inspection process of a vehicle. Go back to Third party inspection, which I did waive. Doing so because of Toby the sales person sounded like they really take care of there vehicles, they had the shop do a Vehicle inspection. Then got told by Nathan sounds like the shop I took to is trying to sell me stuff. I got disconnected, he did try and call back at that point I'm very disappointed and would not suggest buying from them!. More
