  My wife purchased a truck from this dealer, and the listing said the truck had AC, and the salesmen said the only thing wrong with the truck was a little bit of body damage, well when we purchased the truck it was 34 degrees outside so there was no way for us to test the AC, after getting it home, the first warm day we had it was obvious the AC Did not work, I take it to a shop and have them recharge it with Dye, but it doesn’t hold the coolant because the condenser leaks and needs replaced, the mechanic said to contact the dealer because he said any reputable dealer would fix the issue sense it had only been a couple weeks since we purchased the truck, so I go ahead and try to contact them, first I talked to the service manager who said he would leave a message for *** **** the general manager, well I wait a couple days and call again and talk to the same service manager who says the same thing again, then I call and leave a message for Dan on his voicemail, wait another few days and do this again, wait another few days and leave a message with the salesmen we putchased from, wait a couple days and call multiple times to try to get a hold of Dan while he’s there. And now eeeks later I haven’t heard a word from Dan or anyone who would have any ability to help or tel me that they can’t do anything for me. I was hoping they would fix the AC but I knew there was a good chance they wouldn’t short of getting lawyers involved, but I thought at a minimum I would be able to talk to someone there that held some authority that would apologize, especially because it’s such a small dealer with little business. But instead I get a shady manager avoiding talking to me because they know that they are in the wrong. I hope others find a better company to do business with

  Good Afternoon, 

  
  Sorry for the late response.  We just noticed the letter we received dated 4-16-2024 in the mail. 

  Buck Chevrolet values customer satisfaction and takes great pride in our BBB rating.  All of our vehicles are advertised with transparency and full disclosure.  Mechanical issues can occur after a purchase of a used vehicle and we take patience when responding and handling these rare circumstances.  The vehicle in question  was inspected and was operating in good standing per our inspection.
  Our service manager had 2 separate conversations with this customer concerning the fact that a leaking condenser would not be covered under warranty and we could not give guidance since we have not diagnosed the problem.

  We understood these conversations addressed the customers concern when they mentioned having their local mechanic resolve the concern.

  I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********* and have determined that this proposed action would not resolve my complaint.  For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.
  
  [Provide details of why you are not satisfied with this resolution.]

  The AC did not work when the car was purchased, this response is not accurate I talked to the service manager once and he said he would get back to me, then I contacted him a weak later and he told me that there wasn’t anything he could do under warranty but he would get in contact with Dan **** because the car was purchased with this issue but was advertised as having working AC. This began me trying to contact the manager Dan **** who’s to much a coward to answer his phone, to discuss the issue, 
  
  Regards,
  *** *******

  Good Afternoon,

  
  We don't agree that Dan **** is a coward but he has confirmed that this conversation has been concluded with management at Buck Chevrolet.  A conversation can be scheduled If this customer wants Dan **** to repeat what has already been discussed multiple times with this customer. 
  The AC passed our used car inspection and is documented as in good working order.

  On 1/17/23, after deciding on a car listed for $11,000 they assured me I'd have a good interest rate with a 730 credit score on a 2017 car. After being seated, Dan and the salesman left for a few minutes and came back with a "14% interest rate at $140 every two weeks" OR "8-9% interest rate with added mechanical warranty at $150 every two weeks" written in pen on a blank piece of paper. I wasn't ecstatic with the rates offered, but 14% is absolutely ridiculous and the warranty didn't seem like a bad deal right? What they never mentioned was that they were adding an extra $5,000 to the sales price for that warranty. This was a complete misrepresentation of the product being sold. I was told that the warranty was $10 per pay, and would bring my interest rate down, and simply that. I like the car, but I want out of the five thousand dollar warranty and removed from the loan. Since purchasing the car, I have been unable to reach anyone through phonecalls. I just get sent to voicemail multiple times in a day, with no return calls.

  Buck Chevrolet cares about customer service and has made multiple attempts to contact this customer to discuss their concerns.  The customer does not answer our calls and there is no voicemail service set up to leave a message.

  We understand customers change their minds about decisions made during the process of purchasing a vehicle but all information to assist the customer is completely transparent and repeated multiple times during the process.

  We thank you for your assistance in this matter.

  Buck Chevy is still claiming to have made attempts to calling me back, while my call history still shows they have not. It's unbelievable that every time I've called them, miraculously no one is available to handle my call in the moment. They claim to be making attempts to contact me, but my phone shows no calls from them while I'm still receiving texts and calls from anyone else just fine. If Buck Chevy is unable to reach me via phone, they are free to email me as well, as they have my email address on record. Unfortunately, "Disagreeing" with my doesn't null the fact thats stated in my original complaint. They sold me on a protection plan that "lowered my interest rate and only cost an extra $10 per payment" and omitted to me that it tacked $5,000 onto the sale price. I trusted that the paperwork would reflect what we spoke about in our agreements, and assumed he was just rushing through the paperwork for a different reason, but now I'm certain he intended to hide the amount they arbitrarily added to the deal without my knowledge. The $500 is a drop in the ocean compared to $5,000 with the interest applied.. If I knew the warranty was so expensive, and the only option was to take a 14% interest rate or pay an extra $5,000 to get an 8.5% interest rate, I would have walked out at that moment. I just want out of this warranty that I feel I was unfairly tricked into buying.

  On 1-14-23 I went to checkout a vehicle that was advertised at 16,999$ at dan buck chevy. For the past month or two I had been experiencing heart problems and was waiting to see my doctor on Wed Jan 18th. While coming to the dealship I started having numbness in my hands lightheadedness cold chills chest pains and shaking of my hands I couldn't control. I informed the dealer I may need to go to the hospital if they didn't subside but I would still like to check out the car a 2019 toyota corolla since I had to make an appointment and drive an hour to the dealship. As Bradley ***** if going through what features the car has and what it's autosave score was he told me it comes with a warranty and we asked if it was a credible warranty company he said yes they will cover any engine work or transmission work done and that its included with the car. Bradley told what the length of the loan would be 66 months and biweekly payments would be 220$ or if I wanted to pay monthly it was 440$ I agreed to this amount. Then they brought out the paperwork and told me where to initial and sign without informing me any changes were made to the price he told me. After I was done with paperwork and the car was considered mine I went straight to ******** hospital which was the closest hospital I knew of. Upon getting home I checked out the paper work and found they charged Me 5000$ for the warranty they said came with the car 1500$ for gap insurance I didn't request and 500$ for luxcare they said came with he car also. The length and terms of my loan were also changed to 75 months and 490$ a month.

  I had an unpleasant experience when attempting to look at and purchase a new car from this dealership. They were $3,000 over MSRP, did not honor GM employee discount (even though they are a GM dealership, and would not allow a test drive of a vehicle until financing was completed - why would I finance without test driving a car I will own for years to come? After this bad experience, I left a negative review on their site voicing my issues to help spare anyone else since I drove over an hour to get there. The dealership, in response, posted my full name and address along with their comment. I have no issue with their comment but they do not have permission to post my personal info on a public site and when I called to speak with them about this, I was transferred to their voicemail each time with no call backs. I would like them to remove my personal information (Last name / address) from their post.
