I recently made an appointment for service and I had to wait 2 weeks for the appointment. Once there the service department was NO help at all. I left there knowing I would never recommend or return again! The next day I called another Chevy dealer for the same service. I was told to come right in! The other dealer asked if I wouldn't mind waiting maybe 2 hours while they made the repairs! I WAS THRILLED!!! They fixed my truck on the spot and the repair was under an extended warranty. I was a Bonner Chevrolet customer for years but will never waist my time going there again! I know a lot of people and plan on telling everyone I know to stay away from Bonner. WHAT really shocked me when I tried to write this review on Google it would not let me. I had to open Bing to find this site. It appears google hides the negative feedbacks!!! AMAZING! More
Really gone downhill! Four generations of my family used Bonner until just recently. Service shop really screwed me on a vehicle warranty and they could care less 5+ year o Four generations of my family used Bonner until just recently. Service shop really screwed me on a vehicle warranty and they could care less 5+ year old vehicles are not their concern. If you just purchased and do so yearly you will do great tho! More

Poor buying experience and quality service If your looking for a car go somewhere else customer service department is horrible I bought 2016 Chevy 2500 and since day one the truck pulled to the If your looking for a car go somewhere else customer service department is horrible I bought 2016 Chevy 2500 and since day one the truck pulled to the right off the lot had replaced wiring harness and paint wore off on the rocker panel note truck has 4900 miles ,I had it over numerous times and the issue wasn't resolved,I was told by the owner Joe crossin that it's a 2500 series and I'm going to have that being the weight of the truck and I'm wasting his time he is done providing services to me and my truck . I spent $46000 in this junk and now I'm am told they won't service it . I highly recommend going to another dealership because they will treat you better and value you more as a customer! More
chevy tahoe lt I was searching for a Tahoe with a maximum towing package and certain amenities and didn't want particular colors. I had contacted a dealer in Scrant I was searching for a Tahoe with a maximum towing package and certain amenities and didn't want particular colors. I had contacted a dealer in Scranton who didn't even call back after a few weeks (Hesser). Todd went out of his way and within a week, he located exactly what I needed in another state and had it shipped in so I could see it. It turned out to be exactly what I needed. It was clean and even filled with gas (which is unusual for a used vehicle). I was very impressed. He even offered to have me come back if I had any questions regarding the "many options" if I didn't want to read the book. I will definitely go back when I am ready to trade again. They are the best!!! More
GM issued recall GM issued a recall for the accelerator positioning sensor because of the reduced engine mode & stabilitrack issues (look it up on edmonds.com if your GM issued a recall for the accelerator positioning sensor because of the reduced engine mode & stabilitrack issues (look it up on edmonds.com if your not familiar) the 1st time I brought my impala in i made service aware that my vehicle was a salvage title, no problems as long as I had my GM issued recall letter with my Vin number. The sensor was replaced & I was on my way. 9 months later reduced engine mode again, they told me to bring it back it was under warranty. 2nd time no problem. Only 6 weeks later, reduced engine mode again, called for an appointment was told to bring her in. I dropped my car the night before spoke to Bob (nice guy) when I dropped the keys, said it's seems like more is going on since it's the 3rd time for the same issue & would have service check out the wiring. Okay, thanks Bob! First thing in the morning Joe calls, who claims to be the owner & extremely rude tells me my battery is dead & he's not touching "my junk car" without charging me. He refused to honor the warranty of the 2nd part & threatened to tow my "piece of scrap car" off his property if I didn't come get it immediately. I came down for my car & low and behold...I had lights and the car started. Now, I'm no mechanic but I'm pretty sure my car wouldn't start if the battery were dead. I will NEVER bring any car for service here again because of Joe. I will NEVER purchase a car from Bonner because of Joe. I'm done with GM completely after this whole recall. What a shame because for as long as I been driving, it's always been a Chevy & it's always been serviced at Bonner. Joe just lost a loyal customer because of his horrible attitude. More
Tricked at the last minute leased my last car from Bonner three years ago, no muss no fuss and all was well. When it came time to turn it in I was in the market for a new car a leased my last car from Bonner three years ago, no muss no fuss and all was well. When it came time to turn it in I was in the market for a new car and wanted no parts of a lease, only a purchase. The sales manager Dave was more than happy to accommodate me, and after reviewing with him what I wanted in the vehicle, he suggested he had a demo with those exact specifications that he would sell me for an agreed upon price. After the car was pulled around i found it was stock and didn't have the options we agreed to; so Dave being the salesman he is suggested that he would find me one since all I wanted extra was dvd's for the kids in the back seat. The next day he called and asked if I believed in fate.... the truck just dropped off another vehicle to add to his stock, and this one had everything I wanted. This was on a Friday and I asked for pictures of it, he said he could not accommodate me because it was locked in the shop to be detailed. I trusted him and I told him it was sold, get it ready for me for Monday. As fate would have it, Monday comes and almost goes before I get a call from Dave, telling me we have a bit of a twist, but its a good twist. See he misread the listing again and it didn't have what we needed so he offered to give us displays that hang off the back of the seats, to which I quickly declined. They were Ipod type devices and I think he was shocked that I didn't seem as enthusiastic as he was. I told him that's just more junk I was going to have to keep after and that they would probably be stolen out of the truck in weeks. He agreed and vowed to find me another truck. Three more days later he found a vehicle that the other dealership would relinquish so I told him to go and get it, I'm ready to get all of this behind me. Two more days to get the truck and detail it and he sends me pictures of it; finally! a vehicle with all the options I wanted. I told him I put very little mileage on it and that's why we ( my wife and I) chose to buy our next vehicle rather than lease. Several hours go by and later that night I get a call where he calmly explains that this vehicle is out of my price range for a purchase and that a lease is what will be needed to make the vehicle mine. I was absolutely dumbfounded?!?!?!?! What happened to the agreed upon price I asked, he suggested that i should have known this vehicle was going to cost more (keep in mind 500.00 extra for dvd's) and he just assumed we were OK with a lease. To make a long story short, we did not take the vehicle after almost three weeks of incompetence and lies. I called him out on it as a complete bait and switch tactic to which he emphatically of course denied. Dave even had the nerve to offer the lease to me one more time before I hung up the phone, what a joke. I would tend to agree with the other poster that if you have half a clue and are not afraid to call BS you will not be welcomed there. I swear after Dave saw my credit rating he thought we would take what ever he offered. Sad, I have since dealt with another Chevy dealer than will get my future business. More
Only Dummies with fat wallets welcomed here! Very tricky salesmen will pass you around, if they think you know anything about auto dealerships and how vehicles are priced. You are observed and de Very tricky salesmen will pass you around, if they think you know anything about auto dealerships and how vehicles are priced. You are observed and deemed to be sellable, or not. If you are well informed, you will be jerked around and told "It's not US, it's GM", that will not let a deal happen. Dave, the "CLOSER" will attempt to make you understand "Their side of the story". This place is chock full of jaded (lifer) employees and you will see it in their attitudes, as you walk the showroom floor. If you do not mind overpaying, you will be loved here. I can only imagine the "Service Department" being a continuance of the jaded attitudes, at best. Look elsewhere! More
I purchased a new 2011 Silverado from Bonner in July of 2011. It was a decent price (I got a better price from a dealer further from my home) but I gave them the business because I knew many of the people 2011. It was a decent price (I got a better price from a dealer further from my home) but I gave them the business because I knew many of the people working at the dealership. Never again. I got a recall on the truck for the transmission dip stick tube to be replaced. I made an appointment for the recall and dropped the truck of the night before. The service department had my work phone, home phone and cell phone numbers. They never contacted me during the day to tell me the truck was done. I had to call them late in the afternoon. When I got to the service department desk the paper work was ready and they gave me the keys and told me where the truck was parked. I went out to the lot and located the truck. I have a habit of looking around my vehicles after they are serviced. When I walked around the vehicle I was astonished to find the right front fender damaged. I did not even get in the truck. I went right back in to see the service manager. They did fix the truck but they did not even tell me. If I would have moved the truck they would have denied any responsibility. It took 3 days for them to do the repairs plus a weekend. That was 5 days I was with out my truck. They did offer me a Chevy Cobalt as a loaner. That does not do me much good for a truck replacement. Don't trust them. If they think they can get away with something they will try. About a week after I got the truck back I received a call from Bonner asking me if I was satisfied with the service and if I would fill out a rating form. I told the Representative what happened. Guess what! They never sent me the form. So much for their claim to #1 in customer satisfaction. Their surveys are rigged. More
