My car, an 09' Malibu was having trouble starting. Then eventually just died however on its last leg I was able to make it to what I am now calling "My Safety Blanket"! The staff and service were more than thoughtful and caring of my situation, I have a device on my car that will only allow me to drive under unfortunate circumstances, the team at Ferman Cheverolet went completely above and beyond to assist me. I will start with the service rep (ROB) who made several phone calls not only to myself but also to a specific company to trouble shoot my problems. Then there was the service tech "LARRY" who in trying to fix my car could not find the initial problem, which he did not feel safe for me to drive off with the car, (safety first). This gave me more confidence in the service. After all the trial and tribulations of this visit it turned out that the issue came from faulty wiring by a prior installation NOT done by Ferman. Needless to say my car was properly re-wired by said technician. But wait there is more, I live in Tampa and of course the service was done in Tarpon. I needed to get my car to another location and had no way of getting to it. This is when the service GM BILLY MONTEVERDI stepped in and took two of his own men off the lot so that my car could be brought to me in Tampa. The service provided was more than above par, it was extremely above and beyond any experience I have ever encountered. This location and these employees are more than a valuable part of Ferman, they are who makes this service center the BEST! More

Quick and easy! Everything was so easy, in and out with a new truck in about and hour! The salesman I was with was very nice and easy to work with. Everything was so easy, in and out with a new truck in about and hour! The salesman I was with was very nice and easy to work with. More

I am very displeased and surprised at how the dealership in Tarpon Springs Florida dealt with damage done to my truck when it was there over a week and a half. I live three blocks from the dealership and drove Tarpon Springs Florida dealt with damage done to my truck when it was there over a week and a half. I live three blocks from the dealership and drove it straight home after repairs were done. But the next morning when I opened the garage door I saw damage done to the bumper and they out right told me to my face I did it. I'm surprised how your company works and this is the second truck we have bought from you. To tell me to my face that I did it, and the best they can do is pay for half the work for something I didn't do which is over $400 dollars for half. I plan to take this up with the better business bureau and further spread the word on how your company deals with service. I was not informed that I needed to take video's of my car when I drop it off to make sure that it comes back the same way. I would like full payment and replacement for the bumper and I would like an apology from the company. This is irresponsible and unprofessional by such a large company that I am sure has insurance for these problems. I would like to keep doing business with your company because I love my truck but you are making it very hard for a customer to put any trust in your company. I would very much like a responds on this as soon as possible. madge_maggio@yahoo.com More

Not recommended for service. I go in for an oil change. Since I’m familiar with cars and typically do my own service, I watch. What I see is: 1. The lug nuts are tightened with I go in for an oil change. Since I’m familiar with cars and typically do my own service, I watch. What I see is: 1. The lug nuts are tightened with an air wrench and no torque stick, which means that they are probably over-tightened. Over-tightened lug nuts usually result in brake pedal pulsation because the over-tightened lugs warp the brake rotors. 2. The tech uses the torque wrench afterwards, which just clicks. This also indicates that the lugs are over-tightened. 3. I ask the tech to check the torque. He wants to remove all the lugs and do it over again, but that will not prove that anything was originally over-tightened, so I ask him to set the torque wrench to 5 lbs over what he just torqued them to. The bolts don’t move. I ask what torque setting he uses, and he states: 100 foot lbs. 4. I show the owners manual to another Service Advisor, which requires 110 foot lbs. He jokes that no one ever complains about lug nut torque. I ask them to please follow the recommendations in the GM service manual. He states that he doesn’t know anything about the torque settings; “that’s what he has techs for”. 5. Upon returning the owners manual to my car, the same service tech is there, joking with another tech about how everyone was laughing about a customer worried about lug nut torque. I ask what he’s talking about and he tells me that he’s talking about another customer, them states that he was talking about one of the employees. He changes the story within 30 seconds. 6. Upon walking around the lot, I see: a. Another customer bring in their Equinox for service. The service writer doesn’t even notice that a screw is lodged in of her tires, so I point it out to him. It’s in the worst part of the tire, right next to the sidewall, which would cause the customer to get a flat shortly after leaving the dealership. b. A salesman riding around in a golf cart. He states that he’s looking to help customers, but later I see him sitting on various motorcycles parked in the customer parking area. c. An auto detailer drop his large green vacuum cleaner on the ground, and then try to put it back together. More

Pro mechanics dont know how to change a taillight bulb I brought my 1986 corvette in to have a tail light bulb changed, along with an oil change. I dont know what kind of service dept this is if I have to I brought my 1986 corvette in to have a tail light bulb changed, along with an oil change. I dont know what kind of service dept this is if I have to tell the mechanic how to open the hood. Then another mechanic tried to change the tail light bulb, but didnt know how to do that. Again, I had to stop him from damaging my car and I had to explain to him how to do it. He then laughed at me and walked away. I spoke to management along with the service manager and they both checked out my vehicle. The service manager then refused to fix my car. A professional dealership doesnt know how to fix simple things. Maybe they should check out how to change a tail light bulb on You Tube like I did without damaging a customers car. I tried to get ahold of Mr. Ferman himself to tell him what this newly remodeled dealership is doing, But I was told by Ferman management that this was impossible and Mr. Ferman will not talk to me. Please dont use this dealership for any purpose. Now I take my chevy to Karl Flamer Ford for repairs. Boy are they Good..... More
