Awful Service, the first time they forgot to tighten the Awful Service, the first time they forgot to tighten the battery connector the next morning NO START... the second time I took my vehicle there, Awful Service, the first time they forgot to tighten the battery connector the next morning NO START... the second time I took my vehicle there,after the repair were done, they sent a driver to pick me up at home and he was entering address in his GPS while driving scarry ride... picked up my vehicle dirty because they didn't wash it, and the next morning for the second time NO START battery cable no tighten again....this was my last time there. I will keep going to Lunds Cadillac and have a good coffee and bagels or may be some ice cream (free) while waiting. More

Now I know why I had a bad vibe everytime I went. I went in the other day for an oil change and my service rep, George, came back with a list of at least 5 things that were wrong with my car. Out of all of in the other day for an oil change and my service rep, George, came back with a list of at least 5 things that were wrong with my car. Out of all of them the only thing I could afford at that moment was the air filter change. I stopped calulating in my head the "around" repair total when I reached $600 dollars (not including the diagnostic fees) and making it sound like it was urgent I had these repairs done. Among the repairs listed were coolant leak, oil leak, break fluid flush, and my breaks were worn. What made me seriously doubt him were the fact that I just changed my breaks 2 months ago and Ive never had any kind of fluid stains in my driveway, I go days without driving it and my driveway is clean from drip stains. So yesterday I take my car to Nutek Auto (on Central and Hatcher) who several of my co-workers trust their cars with and had Tony (the owner) inspect it (for free). I didnt tell him what Gateway Chevy had found. Tony did come back saying I had a very tiny leak in the rack and pinion (something Gateway did not list in the repairs) but told me its something I had time to save up for since it was an expensive repair. He told me what to expect and what to look for when it got to the point of absolute repair. I showed him what Gateway had listed and he said everyone of those things were in good condition. I will never step foot in Gateway again. Oh and Gateway's receptionist had a major attitude problem. She was very short and didnt look at you when asking her for help. More
