Dream car for next Ten years

Good to deal with a Family owned business. My sales rep worked extraordinarily hard to find and secure the vehicle I wanted. My Chevy Bolt EV was scarce as hen’s teeth

Alex the Great
byon 04/30/2024
I’ve been to a few dealerships who say anything to get me there just to send me home with nothing. Alex said let’s get me in a car when I first sat down and kept his word for sure!! I left with a 2024 with 50 miles on it and I must say that was not in my plans. The process was super smooth and everyone involved was a great help. Alex makes things happen!!

Alex and Darreus were great. They answered all my questions and provided a smooth and easy buying process. From the initial inquiry to the rendering of the keys, everything was worked out just as I wanted it! I got my SUV and I’m pleased with my purchase!

Excellent car. Straightforward deal with no hustle
byon 04/30/2024
I bought the 2024 Chevy Trax Ls three weeks ago after watching several youtube about the new design of the Trax and I am very happy with the choice. I drove test the car as well as my son since I bought it for him and we both liked it so much. Quality and price are both you can be found in this new Trax. The car is amazing for the price and the latest safety similar to the high end Chevy Blazer. Jim McKay the chevy dealer that I bought the car from is not far from my house and the salesman Alex Vasques was very helpful and easy to deal with.

Oil change gone bad
byon 02/21/2024
I just moved to the DMV area and this was the first time I brought my car to be serviced at this location. I brought it in for an oil change (NO TIRE ROTATION), 95K mile four-point inspection, and for them to see why my rear driver side tire sensor wasn't reading. All other 3 tire sensors were giving me a tire pressure reading in the controls except for the driver's side rear. I made an appointment for 8am and dropped off my car on time and got a ride on the shuttle to work while they worked on my car. It wasn't until about 2pm that they called to tell me that in the four-point inspection, there were a few things that were recommended. I had another appointment to go to so, long story short, I told them that I will take care of those items at a different time and that I will need the shuttle to come pick me up at work to take me back to the Chevrolet to pick up my car. The person that I spoke to told me that she was unable to tell the drivers to come get me and that I would have to talk to my technician who was on the phone and had been on the phone for the last hour. My other appointment was at 4pm, 30 minutes away from the Chevy, so I was in a rush to get my car. I ended up ordering an Uber to take me to Chevrolet. I get there around 3-315, they take forever to get my car and paperwork completed. I finally get my car, checked under the hood like I always do after an oil change to ensure thay they refilled the fluids (part of an oil change service). They didn't refill my washer fluid so I had to get someone to do that. I go through my controls to look at the tire pressure window, now ALL FOUR tire sensors are not reading. I let them know and a random car technician was telling me that I just need to drive it around a little bit. I informed him that is not true because I have gotten multiple oil changes and have never had to "drive it around" to get the sensors to read. In this moment more time has gone by and I am now late for my other appointment. They had my car since 8AM!!! for a simple oil change (NO ROTATION) and an inspection. What is the point of an appointment?! Finally the Service Manager came out and did a reading of the sensors. I told the manager that they better not have rotated my tires. The only tire they would need to look at is the one I mentioned in the beginning. I just got my tires rotated the week before somewhere else. He came over and explained to me that when one sensor goes out and they use their machine to diagnose, all the other sensors stop reading. Once I fix the one bad sensor they can get the others to read. This explanation put me at ease and I told him that if someone had just explained that in the beginning I wouldn't have been upset and I was more upset with the random technician telling me to drive it around. I was late to my other appointment and I will never EVER go back to this location.

Sales person was great, the rest has been awful
byon 09/02/2023
We drove 2 hours to look at and purchase this car. Our sales rep, Alex, was amazing. However, everything since the day I purchased the car has been nothing but a mess. - the car was listed with 2 keys. When I asked about the second, they said there was not one. Now I need to pay hundreds of dollars to get the second. - when I got home from my 2 hour drive we noticed a chip in the windshield that did not happen during that drive. They refused to address it so I am out a few hundred dollars more to fix that. - I did not receive my paperwork from the sale for a month and only after 3 emails and 11 phone calls. - the bank I signed the paperwork for the loan was not the bank that ended up financing my vehicle. No one notified me if the change. I found out when this other bank started sending me emails about my new account??? - when I finally did receive my paperwork a signature that was not mine was on this paperwork for the new bank??? - I was charged for taxes in the wrong state. - My registration transfer was never submitted so the day my temp tags expired I got a call from someone saying they were sending me a new tag and submitting my transfer request. - Now, a full 2 months after I purchased the car I got my registration and the wrong bank is listed on it. Come to find out that is where the title is... With the bank that I did NOT have a loan with??? - when I called to speak with a manager she blew off every concern I had. She never even asked my name or what car I bought. She made a ton of excuses and talked down to me like I was stupid. She kept telling me to make my payments. Why do I need to be told to make my payments? That's not even an issue! I wanted to know why everything is messed up, why a bank that I do not have an account with has the title to my car, and asked that she at the very least get the key I was promised. She refused. I said I was tempted to bring the car back and she said it would be considered a repo and they would not do anything for me. But she offered for me to trade the car in. Are you serious right now???? She ended up hanging up on me. I would NEVER recommend this dealership. They have messed up everything about the purchase of this car. Luckily I love the car because it is clear I am stuck with it no matter how much of a cluster this has been.

We took our GMC Acadia in to service the passenger side airbag. She also mentioned that the blind spot alert lights were not working. The technician told my wife it would be $100 to repair the airbag. We were charged $550 when I picked it up, $200 to run diagnostics on the airbag and $200 to run diagnostics on the blind spot alert system. My wife called and talked to the tech and he agreed the $400 for both tests was excessive and said he would send us a $200 refund. That was over a month ago and still nothing. To add insult to injury, every interaction and phone call we've had with the woman at the service desk has been unprofessional. When I went to pick up our car, I asked for the technician and she told me to go find him. My wife has spoken to her a few times on the phone and found her rude and unhelpful. Perhaps she is not in the right role. We understand higher prices for service at dealerships, but Jim McKay Chevrolet took advantage of us and really needs to improve their customer service. When we need service, we will drive an hour or more to find a different GMC dealer.

Jim McKay really fell off the deep-end.
byon 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.

Cars not worth it
byon 11/04/2021
Used cars are not fully inspected. Just purchase a 2015 Cadillac ATS in October. The radio didn't work two days later. Wasn't offer the extended warranty. Service department called and said it'll be 1400 dollars to fix. Sales department offer to pay half. I feel I shouldn't have to pay nothing. They don't try to make their customers happy. Be aware of what you buy. Zero stars

Buyer
byon 12/03/2020
Not particular happy at all with the treatment we (my wife and I ) received. I was the buyer with the assistance of my wife. I would not refer anyone to this company under the current practices used to sell cars. The advertisement is inviting , but the actual experience is totally different once there in person with the sales representatives. This is my feeling based on how we were perceived and treated as an African American customer. The sales persons seemed to be on script and not able to work with customers on an individuals basis. We were not given any options to other vehicles in stock whether a specific type of vehicle used, or new, or color specific based on what we could choose from. We don't like the fact that we were type cast into not being able to afford or deserved what we wanted. We were told by sales person specifically "Demetri" that we were not shown any other vehicles because "we don't want you to fall in love with something you can't afford". I felt the Company sale person(s) and Finance officers was arrogant, insensitive, and showed some racial under tones. We felt they only showed us what they wanted us to have or what they thought we could afford or what the company wanted to get rid of. I felt pressured and disrespected. We spoke to two sales persons before we made the deal. The dealer remorse option is unreasonable and unrealistic when making any vehicle purchase. We noticed afterwards that parts we want for the vehicle was rolled into our car payment without our knowledge or permission. The car buying experience is very stressful. Your tactics to sell cars are not in the best interest or well being of the customer(s).

horrible
byon 12/23/2019
I have brought many cars during my time but this was the worst experience ever. I would not recommend this dealer to my worst enemy. My salesperson Ricardo was ok but the management team is horrible. if you just happen to purchase a vehicle from this dealer be sure to read your paper work carefully, or just save yourself the trouble and don't go

Best Experience & Service Ever Received From a Dealership!
byon 07/12/2018
After weeks of car searching and countless trips to different dealerships around the DMV that left us frustrated with the process and ready to give up, we are so happy to have finally tried Jim McKay Chevrolet! From beginning to end- best service we have ever received from a dealership - from the salesman to the GM. On top of their friendliness and outstanding customer service, they gave us the fairest and best price out of all the other dealers we tried, and didn't try to manipulate us at all. Straightforward and fair. For once, we left a dealership with our new Equinox smiling and happy. Have to give a shoutout to our salesman, Ulises. Friendly, outgoing, informative, and easy to work with - by far the best salesman we have worked with. Thanks for a great experience, Ulises & Jim McKay Chevrolet!
