They are selling the trucks at least 10k over msrp, wouldn't even budge on that. Unethical practice even in these times, it isn't like they would ever discount a vehicle 10k. Move on.. wouldn't even budge on that. Unethical practice even in these times, it isn't like they would ever discount a vehicle 10k. Move on.. More
Avoid This Dealership- Incompetence Abounds This is an honest, straightforward review of my experience at this dealership. I found a used vehicle on their website that I was interested in, and i This is an honest, straightforward review of my experience at this dealership. I found a used vehicle on their website that I was interested in, and in all fairness, seemed like a good price. I was torn on if I should purchase the vehicle in Virginia because I was relocating to another state soon. I really preferred to get the vehicle here because I would need a vehicle to get me up to my new state and, again, it did seem like a fair price online. I figured before going in, I would call the dealership to discuss the challenges that move might bring about (registering, paying taxes, getting tags for new state, etc). I was assured that there would be no issues whatsoever, and they could register the vehicle for me easily to the new state and that they "do it all the time." When I got to the dealership, I reiterated that I would only be interested in the vehicle if they could in fact register it to my new state and that I wouldn't have to jump through a ton of hoops to do that. After all, you pay all the fees, so you expect the dealership to do their part to make it a convenient and easy process. That part aside, I test drive the vehicle and then meet the used car manager Shane. Mind you, this is supposed to be a reputable, big time car dealership, but Shane could have easily come from a shady used car dealer on the side of a random road. He is a fast-talking, not look you in the eye type salesman. He clearly got annoyed when I asked direct questions about certain fees or wanted to negotiate on price. How dare the customer ask for a better price or want answers as to what the many dealer fees are. I didn't come with some ridiculous price and am a very reasonable person, but the guy just had a bad attitude. Simply put, he is not professional and I can only imagine the way some people could be taken advantage of having to work with him. Then came my trip to finance. The finance manager, Sunny, was not any better to work with. I should have walked out when I realized the finance manager had a problem doing simple math. He also had a bad attitude and actually mentioned to me that he cut his lunch short to come help me and was not happy having to do so. Then, after all this time at the dealership, Sunny lets me know they won't be able to register the vehicle to my new state, which they had repeatedly promised they could do to this point. The finance department blamed the sales department, and then the sales department blamed the finance department for issues. Some employees were pointing the finger at the used sales management and team and called them out (to me) about how they are not good at their job. Simply put, I was lied to or mislead numerous times, by folks in every department I worked with, and I was rightfully angry. Again, I am reasonable and kept my cool, and I felt I was still getting a good price on the vehicle, which is the majority of my concern when purchasing a car (price). So, I went forward with the process I spent 6+ hours at this dealership which is absurd. Sunny joked that this was the longest car sale he's seen, but I didn't find it funny. I do feel like they wasted a lot of my time, and again, at each turn, incompetence was uncovered. I may have to put some of the blame on myself for not leaving sooner and subjecting myself to the circus at this place. There is more to this joke of a trip to the dealership, but just suffice it to say that I would never recommend anybody purchase a car from here. It really felt like this was the first vehicle they had ever sold. It felt like nobody really knew how the car sales process worked which led to time wasted and bad attitudes throughout. Do yourself a favor and shop elsewhere. More
My truck has a blown speaker and is under warranty. I called to make an appointment but they told me to bring my truck by in the morning, which I did by 8:15 AM. I specifically requested a call before th called to make an appointment but they told me to bring my truck by in the morning, which I did by 8:15 AM. I specifically requested a call before they did anything, waited all day for the call, no call. I called them20 mins before closing, Mike said a tech had looked into the speaker issue but wasn’t able to diagnose the problem. Meanwhile my 8-yr old keeps asking me what is wrong with my speaker. Mike told me they would check on it in the morning. Nope. I wasn’t letting them keep it for another day just to come up with something they could charge me for. I also overheard Mike “Up-selling” an expensive service package to an older guy. He didn’t seem like he wanted it but didn’t know how to decline. Horrible service, I will drive even further out of my way to not go back there. More
Pathetic I bought a used Honda Pilot from McKays Chevrolet. It had a dent but Ricardo said he would take care of it. He gave me his card with his signature say I bought a used Honda Pilot from McKays Chevrolet. It had a dent but Ricardo said he would take care of it. He gave me his card with his signature saying he would pay for it. I live in PA. so I took it to my garage. I have made numerous attempts for them to pay my garage for fixing it but I just get the runaround. Go figure. More
Dave in service department rude and unprofessional Dave in service returned my call after I left a voicemail to not perform a diagnostic test on my daughter’s car. (She dropped it off late in the eve Dave in service returned my call after I left a voicemail to not perform a diagnostic test on my daughter’s car. (She dropped it off late in the evening the day before, and did sign the agreement to pay the 160 to have it done.) When he called, He addressed me by another name(first and last?!) No biggie, Then I asked him what the call was regarding He rudely told me that it was too late, that the test had already been run. I told him that we would pay them, no problem. He was aggressive and rude saying that no-one EVER drops a car off and changes their mind. I explained that we would pic up her car and would like a copy of the diagnostic results . I asked him if he could screen shot it and send it to me. He told me, “No, have your daughter do it. I have no way of doing that and I certainly won’t use my phone to do it!” He could have emailed it. He was ugly and acted like I was ruining his day. After reading the other reviews, I realize that his reviews couldn’t get any worse. Perhaps this might save someone else a headache... Do yourself a favor and find another dealership to deal with.

Took my money but didn't fix my truck, then lied to my bank. I took my truck to McKay for service. I told them I didn't want to simply change out parts, but to fix the underlying problem. That's why I went to a I took my truck to McKay for service. I told them I didn't want to simply change out parts, but to fix the underlying problem. That's why I went to a dealership instead of a neighborhood mechanic. They replaced parts, charged me a ton of money and didn't fix my problem. I disputed the charge with my credit card company and they actually LIED and said that they told me my truck required additional work, which the invoice clearly shows is false. They are incompetent and dishonest. More
