My husband left a message the night before our appointment because he forgot our daughter had an orthodontist appointment to get her braces on at 915 in Simi Valley where we live. He let you know appointment because he forgot our daughter had an orthodontist appointment to get her braces on at 915 in Simi Valley where we live. He let you know we would be late or have to cancel. I as well called at a quarter to 10, and spoke to a female advising her I would not make our 1030 appointment and could either be there at 11 or reschedule. She said not to worry and to come in and she would let them know I would be there by 11. When I showed up at 11, no one acknowledged me. One guy was playing on his computer searching the web and the guy who our appointment was with Steve Johnson I believe his name was was abrupt and rude saying to the guy playing on his computer when I asked if someone could help me: “can you check her in, she is late” then turns to me and proceeds to tell me “your appointment was at 1030 and now I am on lunch, so I can’t help you! I always take my lunch at 11, so that is why your appointment was at 1030 if you would have showed up on time, I would have helped you, but I’m already working through my lunch so he can help you!” I apologized and told him I called ahead and so did my husband but he still cut me off and said “well no one told me!” I understand if someone is having a bad day, but no one deserves to be treated such way when I tried to reschedule and was told to come in anyhow. I can’t say I will come back for any service. From not being greeted or asked if they could help me, to then telling me he can’t because I’m late and he was mad, not a very welcoming place. Not to mention I had my baby with me. More

unable to even speak with a manager 1 made an appt for a recall. I went in and waited for an hour while the work was being performed. after an hour I was approached and told that they di 1 made an appt for a recall. I went in and waited for an hour while the work was being performed. after an hour I was approached and told that they did not have the part. I took the day off to get this done so I lost a days wages and I inconvienienced my employer and I waisted my time. I was told sorry come back. why was inventory not checked before I got there they new what I was there for., I waisted my day. I called to speak with the manager and was told he was too busy and I would have to speak with his assistant. I was transferred and the assistant never picked up the phone. They are now liable for what ever happens because of their negligence. This was a saftey recall. with possibility of fire!!!! They made no attempt to get my vehicle taken care of. More
Service Department There is no reception desk, it is so weird, I encountered an incredibly rude female service technician who insulted me,I told her my car was literally There is no reception desk, it is so weird, I encountered an incredibly rude female service technician who insulted me,I told her my car was literally breaking down and I felt lucky to have made it in, I even got an ONSTAR email that said go in NOW. She was so condescending, she told me she was too busy to help, then said ' come back some other time, ok, bye bye now...' BIT***!!!! I have been a Honda and Mercedes customer for many years, and now I know why. Next time she will hear it from me, as I am no quiet little thing. She had loose cigarettes all over her desk and was a disaster. Her cubicle was right next door to Manny. I left almost in tears, then got mad and walked into Manny's office, he saved me! So nice and helpful, He saved your business and some really bad social postings, you are lucky to have him!!!! He kept in contact with me, updated me to everything. Against his power, the part took a week to come in, ridiculous...I felt so bad... Manny, will you please come work at Honda, I have kept my Honda and they could use you, this Chevy agency is a waste of time for you! You are too talented to work with those morons. I scored this based on Manny alone, otherwise it would be a zero!!!!!! More
chevrolet volt brought my 2 year old volt in for service and was told that there was a hole in the radiator and it would be $1100.00. also the water pump was bad and brought my 2 year old volt in for service and was told that there was a hole in the radiator and it would be $1100.00. also the water pump was bad and it needed replacing. Two weeks later I was back and I need a new battery which is $300.00. There is also a leak so when I go to the car wash the carpeting on the passengers side gets wet. That will cost me an additional $400.00. Please consider not buying a volt. Try a Prius More
Outrageous Service Bill Just returned from Power Chevy in Valencia. While the service advisor, Maria Lindsey, was helpful and professional, in the end the bill was outrageous Just returned from Power Chevy in Valencia. While the service advisor, Maria Lindsey, was helpful and professional, in the end the bill was outrageous. We requested service only this morning and they fit us in - YooHoo. Our 2008 Suburban was long overdue for brakes. I left there without an estimate, but gave them a $25 gift card and a Power Chevrolet-provided mailer coupon for $99/axle for brake pads. Neither were used against our bill of $1191.50. You read that right, $1191.50 for pads all around, labor, turning the front rotors and replacing the rear rotors - therefore no labor for turning them. The posted rate for replacing pads and turning rotors on the wall is $340 per axle (I have a pix), so the $99 was an awesome coupon. The service advisor informed me after the fact that the $99 was for pads that were not appropriate for my 2008 Suburban. The problem is Power Chevrolet sent us the coupon noting that it was for the Suburban - the only Chevy we own. Looks like false advertising to me. I am no mechanic but we have had the pads replaced and the rotors turned by a local certified mechanic (G&M Auto Repair in Dec 2012). Price out the door? $589.69. With inflation and a $99 Power Chevrolet coupon in hand, I was expecting something along the same lines except for not turning the rear rotors and buying new ones instead. Also, Power Chevrolet's labor rate is $125 instead of ~$65 at the time, which should run $200-$300 more. Instead, Power Chevrolet is $600 more. How do you do bold, underline, flashing, twirling symbols here? Outrageous. By the way, the $1191.50 is AFTER graciously giving us a discount of $130. If Power Chevrolet wants to make amends, they should honor the coupon. The total should come to approx ($99 x 2 - labor for turning rear rotors + cost for purchasing new rear rotors + labor necessary, accounting for the coupon). A price of $800 out the door would be ballpark. That is still expensive, but it is not outrageous. I would not recommend going to Power Chevrolet for service, unless money is no object.

Substandard Repairs at Service Department Had a repair done at Auto Nation Chevrolet Valencia Ca. The repair was on a Chevy Tahoe. I had engine work don't to it, the lifters and camshaft were Had a repair done at Auto Nation Chevrolet Valencia Ca. The repair was on a Chevy Tahoe. I had engine work don't to it, the lifters and camshaft were replaced and I was given a 12month or 12000 mile repair on parts and labor. I had originally came to the dealership for a quality repair and a good warranty. Boy was I wrong. The repair failed after only 8 months and 17000 miles later. I took my Tahoe back to the dealer and it was doing the same thing as before. They performed a diagnostic test and told me the lifters failed. These were the lifters that were replaced by them. They told me I neglected the vehicle by not performing 2 oil changes. I was under the imprecation that a good quality repair would out last 2 oil changes. They absolute did nothing for me except offer a new engine for $8,000. The service Manger and General Manager did nothing for me and stuck to the oil change causing the lifter to fail. I'm not sure if this is a common problem with Chevy Engines. The General Manager discounted the engine down to $7200. No Thanks! I had an other shop do the Engine for half the cost and better customer service. Beware of the Service Department. If your not treated right you can contact the BAR State Agency They have an office in Valencia Ca. They got involved and the Dealership did not want to work with him. More
