**Avoid AutoSavvy Houston at All Costs!**
My experience with AutoSavvy Houston has been nothing short of a nightmare. I purchased a Chevy Silverado 1500 from them in April 2024, hoping to save a bit of money, but it has turned into an absolute cash pit. If you're considering buying from this dealership, I strongly advise you to run in the opposite direction.
From the very start, issues began to pile up. Within just a few days, the passenger side rearview mirror's motor stopped working, leaving me unable to adjust it. Simultaneously, the interior plugs in the truck stopped working. I tried to remain optimistic, but things only got worse.
About a month later, I returned home from a grocery run only to discover that the passenger side front fender was barely hanging on. It turned out the fender had been "secured" with glue, which had completely failed.
Then, just a few months later and only 5,000 miles into ownership, the transmission failed. Despite purchasing the highest level of vehicle protection warranty, I still ended up paying over $3,000 out of pocket.
Not long after the transmission ordeal, a grinding noise started coming from the back of the truck. A trip to the shop revealed that the calipers were severely burnt and needed replacement. Once again, even with the warranty, I had to shell out nearly $1,300 more.
And the problems didn't stop there. One day, my tailgate got stuck in the closed position. After diagnosing it myself through YouTube tutorials, I ended up fixing it on my own and had to purchase new screws since the originals were stripped.
The latest and perhaps most ridiculous incident involved the fender I mentioned earlier--the one I had to reattach myself. While driving down the highway, it flew off the truck completely. I couldn't recover it, so I went to get an estimate for a replacement. The body shop confirmed my suspicion: the fender was never installed correctly in the first place. The improper glue job has now set me back another $700.
In just 10 months of ownership, I've driven the truck fewer than 10,000 miles and already spent nearly $5,000 in repairs--this is with the "best" extended warranty available.
