Two visits...Twice bitten, done dealing First trip was in spring '14 for a routine oil change on 2014 Silverado while out to check progress on house. After service an item was missing from First trip was in spring '14 for a routine oil change on 2014 Silverado while out to check progress on house. After service an item was missing from center console.. It did NOT ''fall out''. Indeed I cannot accuse,.... however it WAS there when I tendered my keys and was NOT when I got them back. I had moved it from my 2012 to this one the day I took delivery and has never strayed til now. Said they would ''ask around'' and get back with me"...never heard back. I called and spoke with GM couple days later. Apologetic of course, .Again, I make no accusations, but lack of concern and follow up rather unprofessional in my opinion. Interestingly enough while in waiting room first visit overheard two salesmen whooping it up over ''slamming'' a customer into a used car and high fiving in sight and earshot of other customers, too. Such professionalism. Second trip was today, 5 Sep...made apt on Tuesday for 3 recalls and other elective services, warranted and not. ( Getting ahead of myself here, but one recall was for an air bag issue....less than 1/4 mile after their service the beeping "service airbag" warning came on as it does very time I start the truck. Makes me wonder if they performed it properly if at all.. So now I have to visit a dealer much farther away to correct their work or lack there of.) At 0800 service advisor wrote ticket, said he would be in touch with estimate ''soon''. Mentioned to him that this was the second chance visit, that I had problems before. Come 1100 had not heard a word ...called dealership...on hold for 15 minutes with polite and apologetic operator coming back occasionally. Hung up and called back at 1200. After 5 minute hold reached advisor.. Informed he did not have the estimate yet but would call me back ''shortly''. Two hours later just drove to dealership. Hard to get put on hold while standing there. One elective service they could not perform. OK by m, no problem.. For the second was told they did not have a part in stock so didn't bother to notify or give an estimate even IF they were to order the part. Apologized to the advisor for requesting that he might have made at least one effort to contact me in six hours and for taking so much of his time. GM was not in, so called back to voice my concerns. His excuse was employees on vacation and they were busy. Continued to talk over me and interrupt. Informed him that we are done dealing and hung up. Interesting transcript indeed. We are GM 'lifers',....currently own 3 GM vehicles that need regular service with plans to purchase a new truck and a Malibu or whatever works for youngest daughter in about 60 days when our relocation west is finally complete . They will neither be purchased nor serviced at this dealership. Location is so ultra convenient to our new home, but the lack of professionalism and absence of a trust factor cannot be regained by any apology, offer or incentive. There was one part of my visit that was quite satisfactory...Enterprise loaner. More
Chevrolet Cadillac of Bend - Tried to rip me off On May 28th I called and talked with Jeff, told him I wanted an oil change and that the car had a kind of grinding sound when turning left – Jeff said On May 28th I called and talked with Jeff, told him I wanted an oil change and that the car had a kind of grinding sound when turning left – Jeff said I could bring in the car at 7:45 am on Thursday the 29th. The Cadillac is my son’s car who is at college down in Nevada. Thursday the 29th - Brought my Cadillac at 7:45am. Jeff said it would cost $100 for a diagnosis and that he would be in touch to let me know what the prognosis was. I hadn’t heard from Jeff by 1:00 so I called him and asked how it was going – he said nothing had been done yet. Jeff called and left me a voicemail at 5:03pm saying to call him back. I called the dealership at 5:45 and Jeff had left work, the guy who helped me finally found the paperwork and said it looked like I needed two new hubs. Friday morning May 30th, Jeff called me and said the car needed two new hubs which would run about $1,188; he also said I would need 4 new tires. I told Jeff I would consider it and get back with him. I hung up with Jeff and called Les Schwab; they said they would take a look at the car for free and give me a diagnosis. They said that two hub replacements would run around $560. I called Jeff back and told him about the Les Schwab price quote. He said he would see what he could do…He said he could match this price. I said no. I picked up the car from Chevrolet Cadillac of Bend and dropped the car off at Les Schwab with the same comments – that the car had a kind of grinding sound when turning left. They responded back within an hour of dropping the car off. They said the hubs were in good shape, in fact he said that the hubs looked so good that he went into their system and checked if Les Schwab had performed service on them in the past. In fact another Les Schwab Tire Center had replaced both hubs back in August of 2013 (my son had them replaced at another Les Schwab Tire Center). Les Schwab said that the right front brake caliper was loose and so they tightened it and the grinding sound stopped. All of this service was provided for free. They suggested I replace the front two tires; however the back two tires were in great shape and would probably last another 40,000 miles. As you can imagine, I am not very happy with my experience at Chevrolet Cadillac of Bend. Not only was your customer service slow, the diagnosis was wrong, I don’t know how your technician could recommend that the two hubs be replaced and how you could recommend that all four tires be replaced. And to top it all off, you didn’t even change the oil – which is what I originally came in for – but you did charge me for it! More

We parked by the front door, I though that something was wrong, I though where are the two ,or three salesmen, We went inside, and we were greeted by Dave Wilcox with a big friendly smile. The experience just got better after that. There was no push, just friendly information. Dave went over everything, many things several times, we were not very quick to pick up on so many features.

We received great service from Jeff Raszler at Chevrolet of Bend. We were in Bend for a short vacation, and our car broke down on a Friday afternoon. It looked like we would have to extend our vacation un of Bend. We were in Bend for a short vacation, and our car broke down on a Friday afternoon. It looked like we would have to extend our vacation until the next week in order to get our car fixed...until we talked with Jeff Raszler at your dealership. Jeff ordered a part immediately, arranged for a rental car, and took care of us quickly and efficiently when we finally arrived in the tow truck. He then made sure our car was taken care of the following day, a Saturday, so that we could leave as scheduled on Sunday. Finally he took care of the rental car return for us, since that office was closed by the time we picked up our car. Throughout it all, Jeff was cheerful, friendly and super helpful. We feel so lucky that he was there to help us, and we wanted to let you know how lucky you are to have such an exemplary employee. Brandon was the first person we talked to when we called, and he was also very friendly and helpful. More
I recently bought a dodge pu from them. When getting the finance done I requested to go though a certain credit Union. I was told that I would not be able too due to the amount that was being financed and finance done I requested to go though a certain credit Union. I was told that I would not be able too due to the amount that was being financed and the interest rate. I was told that they were going through another financial company which later sent me a letter saying I was denied. I found out later it went through a credit union out of Eugene. I was not happy about that, plus they were not able to tell me who the lender was right away either. I had gone to my credit union personally and now im in the process of refinancing the truck I just bought to have my payments and interest rate lowered. They not only did not want to try, but wanted to do things their way and not the customers way. After signing all papers many times, I checked into their extended warranty and it did not turn out as what I was told. I went back in and cancelled it plus them telling me when I was signing papers that I had to have GAP insurance on my truck, and I had told them I had it through my insurance. I had to call my insurance in front of them just to prove I had GAP insurance. All I see this dealership doing is lining their pockets with money and not caring about the customers or their concerns. This company was untruthful too me. I would NOT recommend this dealership for buying anymore vehicles from them, and I should have listened to my co workers who bought a vehicle from this place and was very displeased too. I have gone as far as filing a better business bureau complaint against this company. NOT RECOMMENDED FOR A PLACE TO BUY A VEHICLE!!!!!!!!! More

I recently bought a 2004 Jeep Cherokee from the Chevrolet Dealer in Bend OR. This was the second vehicle we had purchased from this dealer in the last 4 months. The sales staff we worked with were helpful an Dealer in Bend OR. This was the second vehicle we had purchased from this dealer in the last 4 months. The sales staff we worked with were helpful and friendly. The problem started when after having the vehicle for only a week and a half we started to hear a bad popping sound when driving, especially when turning or going over bumps. We had gotten the extended warranty so that we would have a hassle free, reliable vehicle to have in the future. When we brought it in to the service department they said that it would be a $1000 dollar repair, which wasn't covered under the extended warranty. When asked if they had found this when they did there over 100 point pre-sale inspection the sales department manager quoted "We had seen that upon inspection but did not fix it because it is not a safety concern." I could not believe that he had actually just said that. What I got out of that comment was this dealership is knowingly selling vehicles with broken components to customers. When asked if they would cover the expenses of this repair they refused and now I have a $1000 repair that I have to cover only a week and a half after purchasing this vehicle. My advice to anyone is to stay away and not purchase a vehicle from the Bend OR Chevy dealership because there is a good chance that you will be buying a vehicle with broken components. The most frustrating thing to all of this is that the service department knew that these components were not functioning correctly and they did not address them before selling this vehicle to us. I would not recommend this dealership to anyone and I will never be going back for further purchasing or service. More
Lance was very professional and with a no pressure approach!! The pressure is why I HATE to drive into a dealers lot.
