I bought my car at the McCarthy in Overland Park and was told that since I live in Lee's Summit, I could have it serviced at this location since they are equally owned. The location convenience is undeniable, and after having a great sales experience at the Overland Park location I figured I could trust the customer service here. However, so far, I have different thoughts.
After we purchased our car, we realized that the O.P location didn't place a license plate holder or screws for the front, as Kansas only needs it in the back. I called the service dept. at Lee's Summit, and left several messages with the service dept. and these were never returned. I considered that I had recently been receiving spam calls, and thought perhaps I had mistaken a call or two as such. Yet, I went to the service dept. and asked them about the license holder bracket, and additionally about my radio because the sound was a bit off. The gentleman at the service dept. took my information, and told me that I would receive a phone call once they received the bracket. Two weeks went by, and I needed to stop by the McCarthy O.P. location for my auto documents/title application. While there, the kinds salesman who helped us with our purchase went ahead and found a license bracket for the front. I still needed to find out why I had no sound balance with my stereo system, so I stopped by the service dept. at the Lee's Summit location the following Monday, and asked what was up? The gentleman at the counter looked me up and immediately said that my appointment was for that following Saturday. I was shocked, and asked him whether or not they had tried calling me because I was the last to know that there was an actual appointment since I never received a phone call. Glad to know they chose what day I would be available for that appointment. This began to show indication of how they roll.
I showed up with my car that following Saturday, and was informed to have it picked up by 3, which I did. They informed me that I needed a new radio because the original one was defective? Anyhow, again, they told me that I would receive a phone call once the new radio arrived so I could set up an appointment. This was mid-January and it's February 19th.
I called yesterday to the service dept. and guess why? I had not heard anything about the radio arriving. Not sure whether or not they had it, I was surprised that when I called and pressed the number option for open service ticket, I did reach someone. And guess what? Not surprised the guy, named "Jeremy" answered and said, "Yeah, it's here. When would you like to have it put in?" I was taken aback. I asked him, "Do you have any information whether or not someone tried to call me to let me know it was in?" Jeremy just acted like he didn't hear my question and said, "When would you like to come?" I ignored his question, and said, "Is this what happens? No one calls and this is a thing with you guys?" Again, Jeremy just repeated, "When would you like to schedule to have this put in?"
I scheduled for my radio to be put in next Monday the 24th, so we shall see how this flies. I am apprehensive once I came to Yelp, which as a Yelp Elite reviewer I should know to trust my fellow Yelpers with their take on service. I should have checked here beforehand, and checked with Chevy in general whether warranties need to be done through the dealerships in which they were purchased. Depending on how this goes, I will check with Chevy because it appears that no manager at this location has checked these reviews or has any concern with the quality of service there. read more
