Decades Old Customer Double Crossed! Do not recommend Covert family dealerships. Despite decades of loyal patronage, Chevrolet of Bastrop traded in good customer service for crooked business practices. They sold the vehicle I was purchasing while I was completing the paperwork to finalize the sale -- providing no communication, resolution, or assistance. On Monday, February 10th, 2025, my parents visited the dealership for a test drive and vehicle examination while I was at work(2hrs away). We had found our match and the sales representative was "holding onto the keys for me" until I could get there, again I was 2 hours away. They were clearly aware I was coming to complete the sale and sign for the car; they even greeted me with jingling keys in expectation. After a brief test drive, I began the contract paperwork, excited for my new car. As I was completing the contract and paperwork, a representative tells me that the car had been sold. They stood around and offered empty "we will make this right promises"and still haven't reached out to make it right. I'm carless and devastated. The night of the sale, I arrived home at midnight with nothing other than wasted time. I expected better from a known dealership; my family purchased multiple vehicles from them over the years, (even two new trucks from them just last year) and we really hoped our loyalty would help us reach a resolution. I just wanted to be their customer -- the feeling wasn't mutual Unfortunately, my parents faced a similar experience when purchasing a truck last year at the Bee Caves location. The Covert dealerships have abandoned customer service and instead offer an environment of competition and sales pressure, pushing you to sign and buy before someone steals the car from under you. I wanted to give them my business. I tried to give them my business. They double sold cars and left me hanging. Their Manager "swore" he would make it right. I'm still waiting. It's been crickets since. What is even more crazy, is that on Feb. 15th (still not having heard from anyone) my mother received a text message from Covert wanting to "continue" discussion of purchasing the exact same car they had already sold, the one I went to purchase! Don't let this happen to you.

Sold!

See all

My most recent experiences with Blue Mule Garage and "Jimmy" Maus will be my last. I brought my…read more4Runner to them for preventative timing belt replacement as it was coming up on 100k since the last time I replaced it. I was prepared to let the dealer do it, but wanted to support a local family-owned business I had good experiences with previously. I have recommended Blue Mule Garage exclusively for auto repairs over the last 2 years to neighbors, family members, coworkers, and people on Nextdoor looking for an honest and competent repair shop. Regrettably, I cannot in good conscience continue to do so following my recent experiences. These experiences include going to pick up vehicles after being told they're ready to go only to find the contrary. One instance, the hood was not closed and would not close because the hood latch had been removed but not reinstalled properly. The most recent incident included bolts not checked and retorqued as separately requested multiple times, and bolts completely missing, lost, or not reinstalled properly when brought back repeatedly for concerns of loose sounds in the front end. Every time a concern was brought up or pointed out, I agreed to their recommendation for a path to resolve. The last time the vehicle was initially brought to them for a quoted $1200 timing belt repair. That lead to an oil pump replacement at an additional $1300 because of a stripped bolt inside the engine they found and said was not their fault. When I went to pick up the "ready to go" vehicle, I pulled out of the parking lot and immediately had the dash light up like a Christmas tree and the vehicle would not accelerate past 30 mph. I turned around and left it with them to resolve again. The next time I picked it up, the exhaust fell off the next day, and something else sounded loose in the front. At a quick glance, I noticed the majority of the bolts for the skid plates were missing and assumed that's what it was. I fixed the exhaust myself to get to work. Jimmy at Blue Mule admitted to and apologized for not putting all the bolts back on the skid plate because "different techs here worked on it, and we don't know where everything went." They say they never touched the exhaust. In any case, I gave them the benefit of the doubt and the opportunity to fix the issues. I mentioned the concern I had of something sounding loose in the front end (popping noises) and asked for them to thoroughly inspect and retorque front end bolts again. After another inspection, I was given another estimate over $1k including sway bar bushings, cv axle, and inner tie rods. Since I was told that the steering rack was removed as part of the previous timing belt / oil pump service, I questioned why none of this additional stuff was mentioned before. Jimmy told me they removed the steering rack and either didn't notice any issues with those items or didn't touch them. Whatever the reason, it wasn't their fault. I initially decided to give them the benefit of the doubt again and approved the services, fully expecting to pick up a car free of the issues, which brought the car back to them. However, when I went to pick up the vehicle several days after being told it was ready, standing at the counter to pay, I semi-jokingly asked if all of the popping noises were gone. The responses included: "I heard the popping as the car was being pulled off the lift to go to the alignment shop, but it's hard to tell where exactly sitting in the car" and "the guy at the alignment shop thinks it's the upper ball joints, and I concur." "All of your aftermarket suspension wears out faster and is causing problems." But, somehow, the car was ready to go? I paid my bill and left with the car. The next day, the car started to overheat. Replacing a visibly leaking coolant hose on top of the engine resolved that issue, and retorquing the alignment eccentric bolts eliminated the suspension noise. There were still missing bolts for the skid plate. Finally, my neighbor recently had them work on his truck, and his bumper came undone on the highway. I did lose my temper and eventually apologized in writing for my choice of tone and words. They've informed me that I'm no longer welcome as a customer. Le sigh sad panda.

Same day service. Super friendly!…read moreNice AC'ed garage. Highly recommend. I noticed they service automotive and ATV.
