LEAK!

The vehicle in question is NEW, and recently purchased, 5 months prior. It was the dealer demo model of a 2025 Buick Envision (Made in Yantai, China, by the way.) When I bought the vehicle, I was promised all but the "moon and the stars," nicely illustrated by a red, white & blue "BUMPER-to-BUMPER WARRANTY" logo, spread across the windshield. (Pictures Attached.) As the demo vehicle, it already had 5,000 miles on it, and we were assured by Matt (Finance Guy; "The Hammer," in the back room) that our sale would be treated as a "new vehicle sale," and that the same warranty would apply, with the exception of "regularly scheduled maintenance." We knew oil change time was approaching, so we tried to schedule an appointment on the Buick App, just to learn that we were unable to get an appointment until mid--January. Therefore, we visited a local, independent oil change facility, where we learned that we were sold a vehicle with [relatively] no oil, AND with visible signs of leakage below the oil pan. (Pictures Attached) That Saturday night, we returned to the Dealership to complain. We were greeted by Cody Halsey (the Sales Manager with the dog,) and reassured us that HE HIMSELF would contact Chuck Bryan (Service Manager) ASAP, and that we were to call him first thing Monday morning. Supposedly, he would be expecting our call. After multiple attempts at trying to get someone to answer the phone, we drove over, met Stephen Poulsen (Assistant Service Manager,) just to learn that nobody knew ANYTHING. Additionally, he informed us that he did not have the time to properly examine the vehicle, and instructed us to come back the following Tuesday, for a proper oil change. In the meantime, however, he topped-off the vehicle with 2.5 Quarts of oil... on a NEW CAR! We returned as instructed, on 11/18/2025. A proper oil change was performed, and we are given a spreadsheet log, on which to document "oil consumption," after which, the data is compared to what GM publishes as "normal oil consumption." (Again, Pictures Attached) NOW, here is where it gets ridiculous. My fiance' is an aviation mechanic and precision machinist. My son is a GM dealer mechanic in the Greater-Phoenix-Area. It requires NEITHER of them to recognize the stupidity of the following statement made by T.J. Timmins (the Quick Service Advisor.) When questioned regarding "GM's acceptable rate of oil consumption," he replied with: "...with these new engines, tolerances are looser, allowing for more lubricant to get in between the moving parts, and therefore, differing quantities of oil can be consumed." Was he HIGH? THEN... after PAYING for that oil change, we PAID for an alignment, which should have been unnecessary. In order to justify that alignment by the way, Mr. Timmins issued the additional statement: "...and here in the Pacific Northwest, many roads are higher in the center for water runoff, and therefore, such situations have a tendency to throw-off vehicle alignment more quickly." Perhaps the message was not received by the Service Department (as seems to be the norm.) THIS IS A NEW CAR. IT WAS THE DEALER DEMO. BUMPER-TO-BUMPER WARRANTY. *** NEW CAR *** We are upset, and do not take kindly to being treated like idiots. LYING to us is NOT a valid form of customer service. You and your staff should truly be ashamed. It is important to notice how employers of these big dealerships treat their employees. How they treat them is a clear reflection on how they intend to treat YOU, the CUSTOMER. The way Stephen Poulsen (Assistant Service Manager) treats T.J. Timmins (Quick Service Advisor) clearly mirrored the treatment we received. God be with you all. If you can, RUN!!!!

Beaverton Cadillac ended up REPLACING my screen that kept going out so my review still stands I just haven't had time to update. I took my car to them shortly after Vancouver Cadillac told me there was "nothing they can do" and after a day of Beaverton Cadillac having my car they updated me saying they would replace it. Apparently they have more attentive employees and specialists or equipment so why even bother with Vancouver. They fixed it free of charge, but Vancouver Cadillac expected me to drive around with a broken brand new car forever even though my car is fully under warranty (only a year old at the time) ‍‍. Thank you to PORTLAND Cadillac for fixing my car like Cadillac's should be fixed, I will never go to Vancouver Cadillac for anything again.

Bought a 2020 GMC Sierra Denali used truck, Jonathan the sales guy was very helpful! I did an inspection and at that point everything was good, no scratches or dents. While I was signing the documents to the car, the employees took it for a wash. It was already dark outside so I didn't inspect it again, however next morning I when I checked it out there where visible scratches on the roof of the car that weren't there before they took it in for a wash. When on the second day I came back and asked them to fix it, I was told that they aren't responsible for the car because I bought it used. For context I payed $83,000 for the truck while a new one costs $81,000. I was under the impression that the dealership is responsible for the quality of cars they sell to their loyal customers, if the car quality has been in some way compromised by their own employees I don't understand how they can be disreputable enough to conceal it and then refuse service. I personally take offense to the unpleasant conversation I had with the manager discussing this issue, he was blatantly rude and invidious. If this issue isn't resolved in a diplomatic way, i will hand this issue over to my attorney.

Love our new ride

See all

Quoted me $120 to change an air filter in my car. Are they building the air filter from scratch in the shop?

LIFE THREATENING SAFETY NEGLIGENCE As a Senior Asian Women,…read moreI want to share my experience, since I chose this mechanic shop 5 Star Reviews and the AAA certification on the door. I am not a reviewer person, but I don't want anyone to go through the unnecessary fear, stress and anxiety of having their life in danger especially when a parent suffered a stroke and is incapacitated and you are her advocate. Repair: Differential Gear Shaft Replacement Repair entails: disconnecting brake lines, reconnecting, and bleeding them Cost: $5,335.00 Summary: 3 repair visits and 24 hours out of state emergency brake failure repair Repair 1 p/u date April 14th - failed at 70 miles an hour in Oregon on my way to San Diego, Ca, by the time I got back to Vancouver, WA it was worse than when I first brought in for the repair. Repair 2 p/u date June 4th - failed at 25 miles almost immediately June 9th went into the shop One Last Chance and I Demanded Toyota OEM parts since I learned I paid too much for none OEM parts and they were trying to pressurize the pinion gear themselves, the reason for the immediate failures. Also, stated if this replacement failed, I'd expect all my money back. Repair 3 date July 9th - my brakes lost pressure in early Sunday morning of July 12th on my way to San Diego, Ca. failed in Bakersfield, California at about 8:30 am after driving all night. Paid $395.91 for a 24-hour emergency mechanic to bleed my brakes. Brake Failure Cause: bubbles / air in the rear brake line. Why didn't it fail sooner - low traffic cool night driving, used cruise and to keep myself alert slowing through curves by shutting off cruise and accelerated then restarted cruise while driving through the Oregon and California mountains. What happens when bubbles / air gets in the brake lines: brake fluid heats up and the air expands causing no pressure to your brakes and the pedal goes to the floor.

I took my 2012 Subaru Outback here because the battery kept on dying, so I got a new battery and…read morethe new one also kept on dying. They took it in and concluded that we needed a new alternator. They replaced the alternator and we picked up the car. On the drive home, the car completely stopped working while I was driving downhill on Burnside. (Everything stopped working: radio, a/c, lights.) I was able to pull into a driveway before everything went out (it happened over the span of about 15 seconds). Even after I pulled into the driveway, I couldn't put the car in park, turn on the emergency brake, turn on hazards, etc. It was a very scary and unsafe position for me to be in. I called the auto shop and they said they couldn't get to me for half an hour, but they gave me a number to call for a towing service they work with. I called the number and the towing company couldn't get to me for an hour. I called back the auto shop and updated them on the situation. Someone from the auto shop came and took over holding down the brake in the car and waiting for the towing service. They then were able to take it back to the shop and they learned that there was a visible crack in the negative port of the battery and that is what was causing the problem. We decided to take the car home and fix the issue ourselves because it was actually a very simple thing to fix and we had lost trust in this auto shop. They did eat the costs of the new alternator and the towing service. But the fact that they didn't realize that the crack in the battery port thing was the problem before they put in a new alternator was very disappointing and if I didn't react faster, it could have put me and others in lots of danger. I will say the service was great. The people I talked to on the phone and at the auto shop were all very sweet and until my car stopped working, I was planning on giving them a 5-star review.

I also added a comprehensive exam (which they offered at a discounted rate) for them to look at my car as a whole and to let me know what things might need repair now and in the near future. They were able to see my car within a week of me reaching out for an appt, and they only kept my car for ~5 hours. They tried everything they could to find the source of my leak, but when they couldn't, they referred me to Liberty Water Leak, who was fantastic and found the sources of my leak and water damage within a few hours. With the comprehensive exam, they listed each item that needed repair and were not pushy AT ALL. They also answered all of my questions, yes... even the dumb ones. There was an oversight where my wiper cowlings were not installed correctly, so I did leave an honest review on SureCritic saying that I wasn't sure if I'd trust them with further repairs due to that mistake. Within a week of posting that review, the shop called me to apologize and discuss what happened. On top of that, they refunded me my entire bill. I understand now why Tom Dwyer Auto has such good reviews-- They genuinely care about their customers and producing quality work. I am grateful to have been treated with respect, not taken advantage of as a female, and for their determination to correct the mistakes made. Thank you again!

If a car mechanic company can't do an oil change or check up like yours, there's something wrong. Trust has been already ruined, and my time has already been wasted. The same day I was able to get my oil changed by a better more brave mechanic. Still would not recommend Tom Dwyer.
