Not up to expectations
by Mike Bourque on 03/25/2025Dealer pulled a bait and switch not giving me the 1000 dollar dealer fee that was advertised on local radio station.

Made the deal the night before and took less than 45 mins
by Tamalb1983 on 12/23/2022Great fast service. Negotiated the price a little and made a deal for returning customers. Took less than 45 mins for us once we got there. They understood that we had five kids and did not want to be there all day .It is great to hear everything was done quickly and to your satisfaction! Please don't hesitate to reach out to us if there's anything more we can do!

by Cmbteng on 05/11/2016Sales team responsive, knowledgeable and professional. Overall, very satisfying sales experience.Colorado
by Ladyb61 on 12/03/2015updated 12/18/2015Sales person was very respectful, knowledgeable. Vehicle was ordered to my specifications and Shane kept me informed of the progress. He stayed late and was very informative about all the features of my vehicle. Has called several times… to make sure that I am happy and having no problems. He did and excellent job and I will recommend him and Stingray Chevrolet to friends and family.This is why people dislike car dealerships.
by mrwjr2003 on 10/08/2015For those that don't want to read everything: While I love the truck I bought from them, its an amazing truck (which is why I gave 2 stars), if I knew what I know now, I would have NEVER gone to Stingray Chevrolet of Bartow to even give… myself the change of falling in love with something so I wouldn't have ever had to deal with all this. I recommend everyone to go elsewhere. Things that happened to me: 1) I was specific about wanting to see trucks under a certain sale. They showed me three trucks. Ended up that only one of them was on the sale. Of course the one I wanted, wasn't on the sale. 2) While in their office, I found another truck, a used truck, I was willing to buy at the price listed on website. Ohh, that truck also has been sent out and modified, it cost more. Just haven't updated the website yet. 3) I left, I told them what number I would be happy with. The number was based on what I know my credit to be, and what the price of the truck should be after showing me it as a 'sale' truck. 4) Post negative review on Google. 5) Week later, get a phone call, we will meet your number, come in. 6) Get there, and I realize that they didn't lower the truck price like they should have done, they just got me into a really good deal with Chevy financing for 2%. Sure, in the end I'm paying what I wanted to pay for the truck, but the dealership took no fault in the bait and switch they preformed on me. This still feels very dishonest to me. In the end, I love the truck, so I went with it. 7) Guys says hes the owner of dealership, and tells me I got my review all wrong, and that he needs me to change it. I felt bullied, and so I did. But I bothered me, especially as more and more has gone wrong. 8) I moved my tag from my car to the truck, it had registration until Sept 2016. I get the new registration and it has a sticker saying that the tag now expires in Dec 2015. 9 months of lost registration. 9) I call Stingray to find out whats up. Leave message for ****. Never got a return phone call. 10) However, I did get a phone call from Bartow saying they messed up on getting my VIN off of one of the vehicles I traded in. That they were overnighting a package to me to sign and get back to the office as soon as possible. I see how this works. I need something from them post sale, and I don't get returned phone calls. They need something and the world stops. 11) Called back the Plant City office, where all the registration work is done. This time I get ahold of *****. She tells me, that I bought a heavy truck, means my registration is up in Dec. and that I lose all the registration for September. No empathy whatsoever. When I asked about getting a credit for the unused registration, which I was told this by the actual company they use to do their title work, she said she has never heard of that and there isn't anything she can do. So that's it. Done deal. I told her how displeased my experience was with buying this truck, and she did not care, I got the fake sorry, and there isn't much she can do about it response. So here I am, updating this post. This experience was miserable. This is why car dealerships get such a bad rep. If they had just been honest from the beginning, sure, I would not be in the truck I have now, but I would have still bought one, one of the ones on sales. Oh wait, maybe that's why they use these tactics, and I fell for them.DEaler Jaimie Honeycutt
by robert94 on 10/11/2007We will NEVER purchase another vehicle from this representative. She's far too pushy, she doesn't listen, she's patronizing and I would go so far as to say, she's [violative content deleted]. Please beware. She's a [violative content… deleted]. She works for Bartow Chevrolet.
