Midway Chevrolet

I own my own business and I know how important positive feedback is for a company's image. We appreciate it when we get it, so I want to "pay it forward". I have had a terrific experience with the Midway P feedback is for a company's image. We appreciate it when we get it, so I want to "pay it forward". I have had a terrific experience with the Midway Performance Team at Midway Chevrolet. They have been unrelenting with my quest to optimize my 2010 Camaro SS to the point where I have now won 3 awards for their expert advice and dedication. Rick, Matt, Jason, and Joe have shown great customer care with me and I anticipate working with them for many years! More

purchased a 2013 equinox.... when talking about final purchase price i complained about the addons such as window tint which they charge TOO MUCH for and this thing called ZAKTEK paint protectant, now ob purchase price i complained about the addons such as window tint which they charge TOO MUCH for and this thing called ZAKTEK paint protectant, now obviously theres nothing i can do if both have been applied to the car, so i had to give in and pay for them... patheticly i purchased the 2 year warranty for zaktek as well because i was under the impression the car already had it applied so i might as well. well i later decided i didnt want the warranty and they refused to refund it and said it cant, even though i know of a couple cases where dealerships have refunded it before. well i received a email from midway saying its time to come in for zaktek to be applied... its only done every 6 months and i purchased the car 2 weeks ago so its impossible i would need to have it done, so i call in and get told by 2 people working there that it had not been applied and that it was a fluke and that 99% of the cars get it applied before being sold... so i have tryed over 5 times, 4 the times leaving messages to speak to a manager to get my money back since i was lied to, they charged me at least 350 for the first coat and 500 for the warranty. so i want the warranty refunded since i was under a false impression that it was already applied, and i want my dang money back that i was charged for first coat! I finally spoke to a finance manager and he said he would call me back 20 minutes later with a resolution and he NEVER DID, so this is 5th time i have been blown off since they think they have their money, worst dealership ever, once they get your money they dont care about you and ignore your concerns and LIE ABOUT THEIR CARS JUST TO MAKE A QUICK BUCK!

I do not recommend this dealer to anyone in their worst nightmare! Forget buying anything here and move one to somewhere else! The customer Service is absolutely horrible. Rating F!! After you buy a vehicl nightmare! Forget buying anything here and move one to somewhere else! The customer Service is absolutely horrible. Rating F!! After you buy a vehicle they just forget about you. As soon as the deals done and you go back with problems or concerns you get a massive run around, They avoid you and refuse to return your calls, and when you actually do get to talk to someone they have to forward you onto someone else, then someone else, then someone else till you end up back where you have started. I am not ashamed to tell my story. I bought a new Silverado from them, They knew fully what I was asking and understood. The problem here is the sales guys are uneducated on their own vehicles. They constantly have to read from a manual! I said I was towing and some heavy loads fairly frequently and was told black and blue that this Silverado would do it. After finally getting the chance to tow I found it to be horrible, no power at all, I couldn't even reach the estimated MPG claimed just for city driving! I complained several times about its performance and all I got was the run around and the well you have to give it time to settle in and all that crap. Finally after talking the the service department that outrightly said, you are in the wrong truck for what your doing or at minimum you need a different gear ratio!! The Services guys know so much more, they should be selling them! I quickly brought this up with the sales department and was bounced around again, finally they sent me to aftermarket who ALSO confirmed I needed a different gear ratio. Well when the cost came to $4500 to do the work everybody froze, and guess what I got the run around, I felt like a piece of toilet paper on the floor being kicked around from person to person. I ended up contacting GM to file a case and buyback, only to be told it was a dead end and it between me and the dealer! They sold me into a vehicle they said was capable and clearly isnt! and now they cant come good to fix the situation, only to try and sell me into another car! DO NOT GO HERE, you are going to be very disappointed, Just look at the other reviews on here before you buy, see for yourself! I wish I had otherwise I certainly would have reconsidered. This is my first and last CHEVY! Huge customer service disappointment! and vehicle performance! It may not be the vehicle itself but I was sold the wrong one for my needs! They know that and cant admit it. If you have to go here, do not talk to anyone else but Ray Banks! he is the only person here you should Trust, Steve Tucker and his crew need to get serious lessons on their own vehicles. Stop trying to run for cover! I hope this will ward would be buyers else where, Trust me on this! I also disappointed in GM for not coming to bat on this one. Sorry Chev you lost a customer. Shame since we were thinking a new Tahoe in 6 months from now! Not a chance anymore. Think I'll look at something else. Approximately 10 mins after writing this I get a call from the dealer telling me I'm saying lies! Totally not true! Still you didn't even offer to help address any issue, or ask me if we could come to an agreeable resolution. Midway, you could have correctly dealt with the situation and all would have been well, but you didn't, you gave me the run around and sent me home unhappy, un-helped. Don't like negative reviews! Treat customers with respect. I apologize if I offend anyone but I speak the truth and still stand by what I say as correct. Please note as I said before Ray Banks was the only helpful person I spoke to and would appreciate where I was coming from, I wish him the best. More

Boy, it sure is good to know that Midway Chevrolet only cares about their HAPPY customers! The UNHAPPY ones, however, seem to get swept under the rug. Nothing like a shoddy cleanup job to show someone's tr cares about their HAPPY customers! The UNHAPPY ones, however, seem to get swept under the rug. Nothing like a shoddy cleanup job to show someone's true character! My fiance and I recently had a TERRIBLE experience at Midway Chevrolet while purchasing our 2nd vehicle from them, and when he left a negative review here, it was deleted - surprise, surprise! Worst customer service I have EVER had in my life, I have never been treated with so little respect as I was at this dealership. I would not recommend this dealership to my worst enemy, and you couldn't pay me enough to ever set foot in there again. Stay far, far away - these people obviously do not care about keeping repeat customers! I think I'll start taking bets now for how long it will take them to delete this as well, if they even bother putting it up! More

Here is the letter I have sent to GM regarding my buying experience. Hello, I would like to start off by saying that I love my new 2012 Chevy Avalanche. However, this is the THIRD time I have gone t experience. Hello, I would like to start off by saying that I love my new 2012 Chevy Avalanche. However, this is the THIRD time I have gone to a Chevy dealer and have been treated poorly. It started in April 2010, when I went to East Syracuse Chevrolet to trade in my 2007 Avalanche for a new 2010 Equinox. The salesman was inexperienced and didn’t know anything about the cars he was selling, but was pleasant and I already knew what I was looking for, so it was an easy sell for him. My wife and I drove 2 hours to the dealer to make the purchase, and the following week made the same 2 hour trip to take delivery. Upon delivery, I was almost done with all the paperwork when two men who I hadn’t met before or had anything to do with the sale of the car came over and told me I had to give them a copy of my credit card because I didn’t have enough valid identification, according to NY State Law. I had given them my Arizona driver license, my military ID and my US Passport Card. I explained to them I do not give imprints of my credit card and they showed me a list of acceptable identification and their “point” value. The list was so old and copied so many times you could barely read it, but its age explains why they thought a Passport is acceptable but a Passport CARD is not. My wife worked locally in finance for homes and cars and knew the valid identifications for the state of New York, which included the passport card, but these two men just wanted to argue. I had already cleaned out the Avalanche, ready to trade it in, but went out to see if I had insurance forms or some other form of identification I was comfortable giving them. When I got back inside my wife was in tears and the two employees I didn’t know were raising their voices at her. I told them that this is not how you do business and handed them back the keys to the Equinox. I called my bank immediately and they helped me stop the deal and get the money back from the dealer. I ended up buying a 2011 Kia Sorento from Burdick Kia in Syracuse, NY and a year later I got stationed in Phoenix, AZ. It was a long trip across the country and we decided we needed a larger vehicle. In October 2011 we started looking. I went to several Chevrolet dealers and got the same attitude from all of them. Either they think customers are a major inconvenience or they just don’t want to sell cars because they were rude and disrespectful regardless of if I was in civilian clothes or my uniform. I don’t expect respect because I’m in uniform; I expect it because I’m a potential customer who might spend a few thousand dollars at your dealership! I would have gone back to the dealer I got my 2007 Avalanche, but they were no longer in business. I really like Chevrolet vehicles so I ignored their attitudes and ended up at Midway to look at a Tahoe and an Avalanche. I already had the USAA pricing and incentives up on my iPhone and when the sales guy gave me a quote I asked him about the USAA pricing. He said he would see what he could do and came back taking only $100 of the price. When I showed him the website, he left and came back taking off just another $100. He was nowhere near the USAA pricing or incentives for the vehicle. The guy asked me to have a seat in his office and proceeded to brag about how he is the top sales man and had received a Bumble Bee Camero - as if I should stop asking questions about the sales price? He told me in a few days he’d have a vehicle closer to what I was looking for, as in closer to the USAA pricing, and could bring it by my work so I could see it. I gave him my contact information but never heard from him. That was annoying so I stopped going to the dealers to look and kept my search online so I’d only have to go to a dealer if I already found something I was really serious about. In June (2012), I found a couple of Avalanches at Midway on USAA’s website so I went in and waited a while in the showroom until finally Douge came out to help me. We looked at the Avalanches and I asked what they could offer for my trade-in and they said it was only worth $20,000.00. Kelley Blue Book’s trade-in value was much more than that for “good” condition and our Kia still fit the description of “excellent”, so I asked them if they could do better and they came up a couple hundred dollars. I asked about USAA pricing which had the truck at $42,711, and they said yes, it’s basically the same as their employee pricing. They said they could get me 2.9% financing, and after not budging on the price or trade-in, I was sent to see Tim, the finance guy. He shook my hand and told me that we were going to be video taped during the process. He started talking to me about the service plan that covered the new vehicle and the standard 3 year 36,000 miles deal from the factory. Then he went into the “BETTER”, extended warranty. He told me that it covered everything and I would not have to worry about my truck for 5 years or 100,000 miles. He told me how those after-purchase, non-dealer warranties like the one from USAA only covers about 800 parts and weren’t worth anything. Next he went into how it would be paid for. He told me that with my credit scores a 2.9% rate would be no problem and that my loan term would be 88 months but I would make one payment up front and then do 2 payments a months. By doing this, I would finish paying off my loan at 77 months. I told him it didn’t make sense and he tried explaining it again. I told him I understood what he was talking about but had never heard of anyone doing a loan this way so I called my wife, who knows these loans, and she explained it to me, and we decided not to take his warranty or loan offer. Before I could tell Tim this, he started breaking down the standard warranty, saying that after a year the truck would just start to break down and that I needed to get a warranty to protect the “RIG”, as he called the Avalanche. While talking about how the truck would just start breaking down and that’s why I needed the extended warranty that HE was selling, he told me that’s why he drives a Lexus. His “sales” tactic was to strong arm me and try and make me feel stupid if I didn’t by the warranty. When I told him we weren’t going to buy the warranty, he seemed angry. I took the truck home that night, agreeing to come back the next day for final paperwork, detailing, etc. As I drove home, I noticed that the truck pulled to the right as soon as I let the wheel go. I started to think was Tim right? Did I by a crappy truck? Is this thing going to break down after a year? Is my wife going to be stuck dealing with this while I am deployed? I went back two days later to finish the paper work and show them the stuff that needed to be fixed, including several minor scratches in the paint, 3 in the tint on the drivers window and let them know the alignment was off. They took the truck to the detail shop and since Tim was not available at that time I waited in the service department. While there, I watched the guy in the detail department spray a “wipe-and-shine” type of quick detail spray on my new vehicle. I asked them if they had a car wash they could take it through and they said no, since it was the weekend they were closed. At that point I was pretty sure that they just wanted me to sign the final paper work and were just telling me stuff to keep me happy which they knew was not happening. I sat down with Tim again and he said that he wanted to run some new numbers by me. I guess since I was not in uniform this time, he really thought that he could talk to me any way he wanted, because he started in on the extended warranty again! He further explained that there would be no deductible if I brought it there to Midway but if I took it anywhere else, I’d be charged $100 right off the bat. And, he made sure to tell me again how places like USAA’s warranties are useless. I explained since I am in the military and would be leaving in a year or two, it made no sense to buy a dealer specific warranty. I told him I’d be right back and went outside to call my bank, USAA. As usual, the USAA representative treated me with respect and answered all of my questions, not belittling me or changing her attitude when I told her I might be getting my financing with Midway since they offered 2.9% and I was currently pre-approved with USAA for 3.9%. She took a look at my application again and said they’d love to keep my business so they will match the 2.9% if I’d be more comfortable keeping my loan with them, which I was. I went back in and told Tim that I would be doing everything, the loan, the extended warranty, with USAA and asked what he needed to finish this up. He said a check for $47,000.00. I told Tim that because our Kia payment was made automatically, a payment was being processed and the payoff amount he got two days earlier was now less, and he said don’t worry about it, they’ll payoff the right amount. When I told him that meant that now they were getting MORE money since the payoff was now less but the sales price wasn’t, he told me not to worry about it and they’d send me the difference. A month later, this has still not happened. Three experiences with two dealerships and I have been lied to, belittled, and with the payoff of the KIA, I’ve now actually been stolen from. They treated me like crap, and in the end the only two employees who seemed to care about customer service were Douge and his sales manager, Justin. In the end the only reason I bought this truck is because of the truck itself. But I doubt I will every buy a Chevy again, because I will not allow your employees to treat my family, friends and me with such disrespect again. USAA has always been good to me so when a GM employee decides to bad mouth my FRIEND I will stick by my friend. That is why your dealership didn’t make any sales – the truck sold itself, I was just stuck dealing with your employees to buy it. I told the guys at Midway that if they’re going to have USAA’s name on all of their vehicle’s as a trusted partner, they shouldn’t speak poorly of their “partner’s” services. I’ve already filed a complaint with USAA about Midway Chevrolet so that they can be removed from USAA’s program. Thank you for your time. I hope you will not act as your employees and just treat this as a disgruntled customer. The fact is, I am happy with my purchase, but would have preferred to buy it without dealing with your employees at Midway. V/R Robert Brunner SFC, US Army (480) 292-5736 P.S. A few days after I took ownership, I received a call from Midway offering me a free tank of gas if I would NOT fill out this survey. If that, and this complaint, is not enough to tell you what kind of employees you have working for you, I have the names of two other unhappy customers of Midways, that had I talked to before going there, I wouldn’t have given them my business at all.

I went to this dealership knowing exactly what I wanted I went to this dealership knowing exactly what I wanted in a new car. The salesman that my wife and I had been talking to for about a week on the pho I went to this dealership knowing exactly what I wanted in a new car. The salesman that my wife and I had been talking to for about a week on the phone and online passed us on to someone else. That didnt bother me at all, I told him what I was looking for and he listened, yet when it came to actually finding what I was looking for the sales manager tried to add every little thing possible and only offered a fraction of what my trade in was worth. They apparently dont think anyone kelly blue books their trade in to see what it is worth. To make things worse I wanted a particular color and was offered everything but that til they realized i wasnt budging on that. Well, after going back n forth on a deal these morons tried to bait and switch us by sending in the sales manager Jack. This utter idiot comes at us after we decided that the deal was good enough to go with, with a different deal and a much higher price increase, and less for my trade in. At that point we were done. After telling Jack where he can go, we walked off after being there 4 hours. I think everyone involved should thank Jack for killing a deal that was about to be signed. Because of Jack I will never recommend these fools to anyone and I will never go to Midway again. If I ever see him working somewhere else I will turn and walk the other way. More
