I would My sales rep, Julian C. was extraordinary. He kept in touch with me until he found a deal that worked for me. I left without feeling swindled. I would definitely send him business. However, the service team is not as pleasant to work with. More

Nonresponsive, no follow-up communication, lack of interest They sent me a card about the recall for my Cobalt ignition replacement. I called on a Monday to schedule an appointment to get it fixed. I was twice They sent me a card about the recall for my Cobalt ignition replacement. I called on a Monday to schedule an appointment to get it fixed. I was twice routed to an answering machine and left a message. Later in the day, I finally reached a live human and was told the man handling the Cobalt recalls would call me back within 24-48 hours. Okay, Wednesday came and went, no call. It's now Thursday;72 hours later I call and once again get only voicemail at the service department. I inform them that 72 hours is unacceptable and if they don't need the business, they could at least let me know, otherwise I'll be forced to go to another Chevy service as I don't feel they're being responsive in a timely manner. Guess what? No return call. I'm amazed they have customers - probably only because of location convenience!!! Never will I have any further dealings with them! Apparently after reading other reviews elsewhere this is their modus operandi. Pitiful. More

Tony Humbert is the only reason I take my car to Tom Gill I purchased my car in 2010 from Tom Gill. I continue to use their service department because of Tony. He is always pleasant and has always been honest I purchased my car in 2010 from Tom Gill. I continue to use their service department because of Tony. He is always pleasant and has always been honest with me. He goes out of his way to make my experience the best every time I come in there. I am not very car savvy and Tony always gives me all my options in terms I can understand. I always know my car is in great hands when I turn it over to Tony and his guys. My car has always come out in the expected time and pricing has always been very reasonable. In fact, I'm due for an oil change soon and can't wait to take my car in so it's ready to go for our vacation. That way I will have a worry free trip knowing Tony just looked over my car and gave it the thumbs up! More

Falica greeted me right away with her sweet personality to start off the positive experience .She was knowledgeable on the mechanics of the vehicle and helped me decide btw 2 vehicle after listening to my needs. In addition, I really enjoyed having a female helping me which was different but honestly muc more comfortable. I definitely will save her contract information for any future vehicles purchases.

my experience I like the friendliness of the sales associate who worked with both times I have a bought my car, also I like that he didn't hassle/push me into buyin I like the friendliness of the sales associate who worked with both times I have a bought my car, also I like that he didn't hassle/push me into buying a car and that he was always up front with me when it comes to buying a car. I do not like the service dept at tom gill, certain workers in that department are rude and not helpful at all. That department is only interested in getting money rather than fulfilling the customers needs. I understand that its a business and they need to make money but it shouldn't only be about money to them. I recommend people to go see the sales associate who has worked with me each time I've been there, but I do not recommend people to get their cars fixed/or maintenance done at the service department at tom gill.

I found the staff to be highly professional and welcoming, and the environment to be clean. Michael Monday was my service rep and was highly knowledgeable. He was able to clearly communicate what the issue was and my options for resolving it. During the repair process, he kept me updated and when I picked the my car up, all repairs were complete and my issue was resolved. In my opinion, it doesn't get much better than that. Go Tom Gill and ask for Michael Monday. More

Horrible customer service. Some "business of character" I have been given the run around for two months by two different people about my satisfaction and questions I had concerning my last [and final] visit I have been given the run around for two months by two different people about my satisfaction and questions I had concerning my last [and final] visit. I have taken my car there on more than one occasion, and everything was fine. Then I take it in february and suddenly EVERYTHING is wrong with it and they want me to pay hundreds of dollars to fix it. I have only had the car a year, and it only takes me to and from work or to the store, so it's not like I'm working the thing to death. You can't tell me alllllll of these problems arose in a year, and since they couldn't have, these problems should've been taken care of before it was put on the lot to be sold. They called to do a satisfaction survey, and I've sent emails. They obviously don't care about satisfaction so why even bother? It's EXTREMELY rude to read a customer's email and NOT reply to their questions. I am no longer taking my car there for service, and I'm ashamed to say I even bought a car from them. More

I had my car towed there Monday morning around 9am. I was on my way to work when I heard a pop and was surrounded with what seemed like smoke. I pulled over immediately and stopped the car. After havin was on my way to work when I heard a pop and was surrounded with what seemed like smoke. I pulled over immediately and stopped the car. After having it checked by the local fire department, I was informed it was more steam than smoke. At that time I requested a tow to the Florence location. I’ve purchased three vehicles from Tom Gill, used their service department previously for warranty repairs and used their body shop twice. I thought their shop would do a decent job and that they would be honest. However, I realized over a day later that I was sadly mistaken. I was very specific about what happened and I would guess that it was the radiator/cooling system. They had the car the entire day Monday. I heard nothing other than they were looking at it and it would cost $90 to evaluate the car. I said that was ok. Then Tuesday morning I was called about 8 am and was told by Chris, “we’ve looked at your car and it isn’t as bad as we thought it would be. It needs an elbow on one side and we’ll replace the other side too. Plus, the belt was damaged so we’ll replace that.” He stated it would be about $500. I asked if that included towing and he stated it would not, that towing would be an extra $70. Although I thought this estimate was a bit high, I was willing to pay it to get a working car back within the day. About 2:30pm, I was called and told they now needed to charge $1300 to replace the radiator and thermostat. The radiator at KOI was $157 and the thermostat was $7. The $1300 price seemed incredible. I called back and stated that was too high and they could leave the car in the lot and I would have it towed elsewhere. I understood they had assessed the car (even though their assessment was incorrect). I was happily willing to pay the $70 tow, the $90 evaluation and possibly a little more for the belt and some labor. I will be perfectly honest, I thought I was being more than fair. They had been working on the radiator for three hours and didn’t think to open the cap to make sure it did not need to be replaced. Frankly, even I know this doesn’t seem right. At that point, I was told that I would have to pay $552 to get my car back. Now, I was told it would only cost $500 to fix, but then told I’d have to pay $552 for an incomplete job? I refused this and stated it wasn’t right. Then I spent the next hour going back and forth about this incident with Chris and Matt. To be clear, I wasn’t asking not to pay anything, but there is no reason I should have to pay for the entire service when it wasn’t completed and it didn’t fix the problem they stated it would. The fact of the matter is that they diagnosed the problem incorrectly, I should not be responsible for that. Then they began to tell me there would probably be other things wrong, but they couldn’t tell what until I authorized this fix. I understand things can be discovered while a technician is working on it; however it should be something unrelated to what they stated they were fixing. The reality is that the tech worked on the radiator for three hours putting on “boots”, but didn’t think to actually evaluate the radiator before doing so. Frankly, this situation disgusts me and I’d rather pay someone more than what I would pay Tom Gill based on principle alone. I’m paying the $475 (lowered after a very lengthy discussion) to get my car off Tom Gill's lot since it’s currently being held hostage. To top this off, we called and asked to pay via phone and have the car set aside for our towing company. The receptionist was rude and condesending. I would like to say that the two women I spoke with to make my appointment and arrange the first tow were very pleasent at that time. It was only when we wanted to pay and get this ordeal over with, that the tone of the receptionist was different. I do not know if this was a different person than the one I made my original appointment with. I have given a substantial amount of business to Tom Gill over the last decade. I purchased a Cavalier in 2002 for $10K, I purchased a Silverado in 2006 for $21K and my Grand Prix in 2007 for $18K. I’ve used the body shop twice and the service shop a couple times as well: NEVER AGAIN. I planned on buying another car within the next two years; however I will not be purchasing one from Tom Gill. Nor will I recommend Tom Gill to my family and friends, I will ensure they know of this situation when they are considering their next purchase. More
