Shaver Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram Truck

Tim at Shaver offered us the best price among several dealers for the car we wanted. When we got to the dealership, Tim was very pleasant, but told us our car was not ready. We had to wait almost 3 hours dealers for the car we wanted. When we got to the dealership, Tim was very pleasant, but told us our car was not ready. We had to wait almost 3 hours before seeing the car. Prepping a car should not take more than 20 minutes. He offered to sell us nitrogen filled tires, which we refused. When we went to do the paperwork, we were surprised that $500 in "Nitrofill" and antitheft charges were on the bill, which we had already turned down. The bill was corrected. When we asked Tim about it afterward, he said it was dealer policy. If that is true, he should have warned us! The Nitrofill dealer information website (nitrofillnow.com) represents Nitrofill as a way to trick customers into returning to your dealership more often for service. We were in the dealership for almost 4 hours. It should not have taken this long considering we had agreed to a prearranged price and given them an hour notice before we arrived. In hindsight, they were probably wasting time adding the nitrofill package and antitheft etchings onto the car. There were multiple minor annoyances. First, they did not fill up the gas tank - only giving us 7 gallons. The car had noticeable dirt and water spots. When we got home, we realized they had drilled and installed the front licence plate crooked. Tim Ott, our salesman, gets 4/5. He gets one point off for not warning us about the nitrofill and antitheft charges. The dealership gets 3/5 for doing shoddy prep work and making us wait 3 hours to see the car, plus the dishonest add-on charges. Shaver is apparently not above some of the stereotypical dishonest car dealer tactics. Overall, I have to recommend them for offering the best price and friendly staff, but you must be vigilant when reviewing the bill for worthless extras. More

I just purchased a FIAT 500C Pop from Shaver FIAT and all I can say is that it was the best car buying experience I had. I initially was working with Tim who worked out the deal with me. I visited several I can say is that it was the best car buying experience I had. I initially was working with Tim who worked out the deal with me. I visited several FIAT dealerships before I decided to go with Shaver FIAT. At the dealership Mike and Chris showed me the car that I have been looking at over the internet. Test drove the car and I fell in love with it. In less than an hour I was signing paperwork and got the car that I wanted. I have been telling my friends about my experience and it was great. All around awesome car buying experience, will definitely recommend and buy a car from them again. Thank you Tim, Mike and Chris! Loving the FIAT 500C Pop mocha latte! More

Best dealership experience ever!... since my last purchase in 2004 at a chrysler dealership. I did my research on the truck I wanted and then went online to check on dealership reviews (negative and purchase in 2004 at a chrysler dealership. I did my research on the truck I wanted and then went online to check on dealership reviews (negative and positive) for the best dealership to deal with, thanks to all the positive reviews I decided to settled with Shaver Auto group. Also I decided to deal with Tim Ott internet sales manager because of all the positive reviews he received on this site. He was great, information overload (a plus). Tim explained everything I needed to know about the truck and helped me with the voice command and all other electronic devices before I left the lot with my new truck. Ira was in charge of the paper work in the finance department, he is a cool guy. I appreciate the fact that they kept everything straight forward. I do recommend that customers do their there research because it will save both parties a lot of time. I would definitely recommend this dealership to a friend or stranger. Most of us get a headache when it comes to dealing with a big purchase and especially with a car dealership but this was done right so a big thanks to Tim Ott and Ira Dauer. More

I was able to get EP pricing so the pricing was not hard. I had interacted with Chris over e mail so when I went in I had done my research on what I wanted. He showed me the invoice and in short order we had I had interacted with Chris over e mail so when I went in I had done my research on what I wanted. He showed me the invoice and in short order we had a deal. The onlt thing was an added cost of $471 dollars. When I inquired it was $179 for nitrogen for the tires and $292 for a theft protection system. I did not want either. We knocked off the very expensive nitrogen but I ended up paying for the theft protection system. I thought it was added to the vehicle. At the end of the day I did not need to purchase that either but I did not read the small print. Actually it was large print. It said "purchase of the syatem is entirelly voluntary and is not required in order to purchase the vehicle". Chris or the woman in finance could have been much more up front about this. Other than that I was in and out in very quickly. More

I give Shaver Dodge "GREAT" reviews accross the board due to multiple reasons: 1. my initial contact with a gracious salesman named Ignacious made me feel comfortable with doing business with this board due to multiple reasons: 1. my initial contact with a gracious salesman named Ignacious made me feel comfortable with doing business with this dealership; 2. Ignacious and then the Internet Sales Manager, Chris Arndt, teamed up to really push for the deal I was financially comfortable with and then they worked with the Finance Dept to get my deal done!; 3. Matt in the Service Dept has already gone above and beyond in explaining various service I'm entitled to AND he helped me set up the voice commands in my stereo as well as the hands-feee "U-connet" system; and last but certainly not least, the Parts Dept. Mr. Stoneman in particular not only remembers me when I call, but goes the extra mile to research information on parts for my truck. In fact, everyone in the Parts Dept @ Shaver Dodge has been excellent. I would reccommend Shaver Dodge to anyone. I compared them to the local Dodge dealership in Simi Valley, who were also very nice and cooperative, but Shaver matched, no EXCEEDED, the trade-in + cash purchase price I wanted and so a deal was happily struck! And, I love my new Dodge Ram! Thanks to everyone I dealt with at Shaver Dodge in Thousand Oaks! D. Stone More

Biggest scam in county!!! We agreed to purchase a used vehicle. We received a good deal. Then when finishing the paperwork- SURPRISE!!!! They tagged on the nitrogen fee of $179.00 and the Vehicle Theft f vehicle. We received a good deal. Then when finishing the paperwork- SURPRISE!!!! They tagged on the nitrogen fee of $179.00 and the Vehicle Theft fee of $292.00. I asked that they be removed, but they said that was not an option, that ALL of their vehicles have these fees. Really? Their response was that we got a good deal and these fees help make up the difference in the car price. This is the exact story other customers have noted. Unbelievable. I will be speaking to an attorney and will re-post when I get an answer. I will never buy any type of vehicle from them again. Very sad to think that this is the way a car dealership in Thousand Oaks makes their money- by being sneaky and dishonest. As a consolation, they gave us 2 free oil changes. UPDATE!!! UPDATE!!!! UPDATE!!!! The dealer, on their own, contacted me and fixed this unfortunate series of events- repaid in full! I appreciate Sales Manager John McCann's explanation and taking time to meet and discuss. While I am concerned that this occurrence is not a fluke, I am hopeful that positive changes can be made for future customers and that Shaver will continue to be a beneficial and supportive business within the community. Thank you John. More

This was perhaps the most pleasurable car buying experience that I have had. Jake helped me test drive the car, and was personable and helpful. I negotiated the price with Tim, and I did so over experience that I have had. Jake helped me test drive the car, and was personable and helpful. I negotiated the price with Tim, and I did so over the internet so that I could do so at my leisure. Tim was very responsive, and my only complaint is that he needs to get a better bluetooth/cellphone connection. After negotiating the price, Ira in Finance was able to get me a great interest rate on a purchase, and while I have a few days to come up with my own financing, my credit union can only beat them by $5/month. It's hardly worth the hassle. More
