Dealership Service Review

Jim McKay really fell off the deep-end.
Written by Tyler Tran on 09/27/2022
Jim McKay really fell off the deep-end. I used to get honest estimates on services such as oil changes and alignments from this dealership. However, I brought in my 2019 Camaro SS for an oil change and was given an estimate of $149.55 after they checked up on my car. I approved the service expecting the actual cost to be somewhat close to the estimate. Instead they wanted $200 (a 33% increase from the estimate) and gave me a discount for a total of $181.86. So I called Denis Gallegos (the service advisor assigned to me) and he told me that the estimate was for an "average Camaro". That is extremely misleading. I gave them my car that they checked up on just to give me an estimate on a lower end version of my car. They recommended other services such as an alignment, brake fluid flush, brake pad and rotor replacement, engine air filter replacement, cabin air filter replacement, and fuel/air induction system service. I can't imagine what the bill I would've been stuck with if I agreed to do the other services with since they gave me an estimate based on an "average Camaro". I am extremely disappointed in the lack of transparency and honesty on how much the actual service would be. It makes me wonder what else they aren't being honest with.
