BRAKE REPAIR

by 2023Travers on 02/20/2024

I had my front brakes on our 2023 Traverse replaced ($600+) because there was a metal to metal grinding noise and saw that there was some grooving starting on one of the rotors. I paid ($30) to have the rear breaks inspected during the same visit. I received a video from the technician detailing that the front brake calipers were at 6mm and the rear calipers were at 8mm and all looked good with them. The next day a more severe (then what was heard from the front brakes) grinding noise started in the rear brakes. We don't live in NC but were here for a family medical emergency. Unfortunately, we cannot return to this dealership to address our concern with the technicians inspection because we have returned home.

Sir Walter Chevrolet

by RC Pepper on 02/15/2024

They have a new vehicle photo machine and now charge $165.99 for diagnostics. It used to be if you did the repair that charge was removed. Now it stays.Very, VEry, VERY expensive repair adder.

Bad experience

by Unsatisfied on 03/03/2023

Made an appointment but Sir Walter didn’t look at my car for an additional 8 days, then charged me the diagnostic charge of $165, plus $20 for “fees” plus tax for a total of $200 - and they didn’t even get a complete diagnosis “without taking the car apart”. I will go out of my way to NOT recommend Sir Walter Chevrolet.

Why go any where else!

by Dré 728 on 08/15/2018

I have been servicing all my vehicles At Sir Walter Chevrolet for the last few years. I have never been disappointed and they have always taken care of me. They always go the extra mile to make sure I have been taken care of. I would recommend them to everyone.

Sales Dept is exceptional but the Service dept is one horrible experience

by Patunia on 03/21/2018

We purchased our GMC Acadia from this dealership a year ago. We took it to get service Oil Change and Rotate tires. They put the lug nuts on too tight and warped my rotors. So I had to take it back to complain. They took a half of day to do a job that was maybe an hours worth of work. The next time I brought it back the steering was making a whining noise and it was leaking freon. I had to send them a picture of where for them to be able to diagnose it. They fixed the tank that they said was leaking but then charges me $130 diagnostic fee for them to look at the steering. They are in the same area and when speaking to Service Manager he stated it was because they found nothing wrong with the steering and they have to pay their technicians. So why am I not the one that was paid for the $130 fee on the leaking freon? Don't even waste your time, they will just say nothing is wrong even when the car is still under warranty and charge you for looking at it. I would not recommend taking your Chevy to this dealership. They only want to make money not take care of their customer or their customers experience. Please choose another one like Hendrick. That is where I had to make my appointment to get the steering fixed.

Quick and friendly service

by Laneparker on 02/29/2016

Came in for an oil change on a used vehicle I had bought recently. All the staff were very friendly. Only small gripes are that I had to wait a little longer than I was originally told (but that happens) and it did seem like everyone was just "going through the motions" to get folks in and out. Efficient, but could have been slightly more friendly. No real complaints though!

My 'Bu!

by ThomasEdward on 02/17/2016

My salesman, Joe McKenna, was just extraordinary in every sense of the word. He, from the onset, even BEFORE meeting me, was absolutely confident that he could get me into what for me, is my "dream vehicle," the 2016 Chevy Malibu. At one point during the process, it appeared as if the purchase was going to fall through and not happen. Mr. McKenna went and consulted with his managers and came back with financial terms that were completely acceptable. Mr. McKenna was/is so personable and really understood how important it was to get me into that car. He NEVER came off as a mere "salesman." Mr. McKenna became an active partner in my quest to buy an excellent, reliable vehicle. I am very, very grateful. Please, tell him thank you again, for me.

FEMALES BEWARE

by jaggerheine on 11/19/2015

after sending credit card info to secure a car as I was 3 hours away from the dealership they sold the car from under me. when talking to mr bull he was very belittling. told me that he had a client there that had not paid any money but being that he had not run the card then he was going to sell. I honestly feel being a mother of 3 trying my best to get there and sign he took advantage. he treated me horribly on the phone and actually hung up on me when I was asking questions. I have felt so obliged to write a review but feel this would not have happened to "a husband".

H. Cronin Review - Don Philips and Tony Hughes

by HelenCronin on 06/02/2015

Don Philips and Tony Hughes were really great to work with. They made the process pretty seamless. I really feel like we got the best deal we could afford. Thank you to both of them for their hard work. We sent my brother-in-law there the next day and he bought a car from Don as well.

Great service and care at Sir Walter Chevy

by Edwin_81 on 05/20/2015

I ran over something and had a leak in my tire. My awesome Traverse actually told me I was losing air thankfully, because I was on a headed out for a road trip and could have been stranded. I was treated so well as I waited for service. I was well informed of the issue, the waiting time, and the cost. As I waited I was treated so politely by everyone I can in contact with at Sir Walter Chevrolet. I was even given a snack and a soda! I call that great customer service! I was on my road trip in what seemed like no time at all, and have had no problems since! I am so glad I chose a dealership that truly cares about their customers! I will ALWAYS buy from Sir Walter Chevrolet in the future!

The absolute best car buying experience ever!

by Yavon on 04/24/2015

The entire team at Sir Walter was amazing. My salesman Jon was the absolute best. He listened with the intent to help, he went above & beyond, when he didn't have an answer he made sure to get one. Best of all he was honest throughout the entire sale. Not only would I recommend Sir Walter Chevrolet to everyone that I know, I will be a lifetime purchaser with them as well. Thank you so much!

About our dealership

Sir Walter Chevrolet is a family-owned and operated dealership spanning four generations. We have called Raleigh home since 1928 (yes, nearly a Century!). In fact, Sir Walter Chevrolet was the very first Chevrolet dealership in Raleigh when we opened our doors in the Sir Walter Fire District on October 1st, 1928 (above, left). We moved to our current location at 8501 Glenwood Avenue in 1997 after spending 69 years in the heart of downtown Raleigh, an effort aimed at giving us the ability to serve more customers in the greater Raleigh community. We recently remodeled this facility to accommodate a 21st-century buying experience, including a state-of-the-art showroom and a completely upgraded waiting area for our service customers. Our long-time dedication to the Raleigh community as well as our commitment to our employees, customers, and innovation have all contributed to helping us maintain a healthy business for 87 years. Thank you for your support!
