Took my 2024 chevy 1500 3.0 L for repair . Issue was the coolant pump would set a code and de- rate the engine. I had to get home so I disconnect the wire harness from the pump and found lots of corrosion in the plug and the pump. The dealer came back and stated that this is not covered under warranty since I removed the connector and found the issue. I had GM care involved . Bottom line was I left the dealer and Paid for diagnostic time . I took my truck to another dear ship in Pairs . They got me in right away and called me and stated that the truck is ready for pick up . This will be under warranty to change the harness and pump but they had to order the part but it will take about 2-3 wks . The dealer called me once the part came in and repaired the truck. I called back to Hatfield and left a message for the General Manager and I was told the note will go right onto his desk. No call back or credit me for the amount I had to Pay that I should of not had to. I have been in the marine industry since 1989 , tech till 2012, became service manager and took care of all the warranty claims . This is not the dealer I would go to for any warranty repairs. I would love for the General Manager call me to discuss.

Technical bulletin for a shift to park issue
Clinton C.

If you own a Chevrolet Volt with the Shift to Park issue, do not bring it to this dealership. They will not follow the service bulletin for the issue and will try to make you pay for the service out of pocket instead of under the Voltec warranty. I unfortunately brought my car in for the issue since I thought there was no way they could screw this up. After 3 weeks of being provided misinformation and having to educate their staff, they still refused to follow the service bulletin. I was then forced to pay the diagnostic fee and do the warranty service myself. It only took 30 minutes and $20 but I no longer had the issue or the code they used as justification to avoid doing the correct repair. The level of service provided raises either incompetence or ethical concerns since 5 minutes of inspection would have verified my issue correctly. The fact that 5 minutes of looking at the part in question would have confirmed the warranty repair was necessary means that the $200 you pay for a "diagnostic" is most likely them just pulling a code. On top of all this, when I dropped my car off for repair, I notified Brian that my tire had a slow leak and needed patched. Nothing was noted in the service order about the leak. After the service department manager again provided more misinformation to me about my issue, they had to then go put air into the tire in order to drive out to me. After 2 bad experiences in a row with this dealership and warranty repairs, I've decided I no longer want to own a car that requires this dealership to provide warranty repairs on and we've moved on. Also, beware that this business astroturfs its google 5 star reviews by asking customers to leave 5 stars before service is done. Which is why you see so many 5 star reviews with no text.

Where Rod Hatfield service department damaged my throttle body replacing water pump!
Bradley H.

DO NOT TAKE YOUR VEHICLE HERE FOR REPAIRS!! I decided I wanted to replace my air filter and clean my throttle body out, when I went to remove my air box I noticed these guys cracked the lip on the throttle body when replacing my water pump. I am 1000% confident they are responsible for my damage as they are the ONLY service shop to work on my truck since owning it and it's fairly new (2019). PLEASE SAVE YOUR TIME AND $$$ GO SOMEWHERE ELSE!!!

We had an amazing experience at Greens Toyota of Lexington and I genuinely cannot recommend them…read moreenough. This was the first time my boyfriend and I had gone together to look at vehicles, and honestly we were extremely nervous going into it. Our previous vehicle turned into a nightmare and we spent months putting more money into repairs than the car was even worth, so this was a huge deal for us. From the moment we met Drew "The Car Dude" North, everything felt different. He genuinely made us feel comfortable, cared about, and understood throughout the entire process. He never once made us feel pressured or treated us like just another sale. He listened to every concern we had, answered every question honestly, and took the time to really talk with us instead of talking at us. You could tell he truly cared about helping us find the right vehicle and making sure we felt good about our decision. He was so personable and easy to talk to that it honestly felt like we had known him forever. We cracked jokes the whole time and somehow he turned what should have been a stressful experience into one that was actually exciting and enjoyable. That meant a lot to us considering how anxious we were walking in. We ended up getting a 2018 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid and we absolutely love it already. Drew even went above and beyond to make sure the vehicle was ready for us that same day even though it had not been serviced or detailed yet. The amount of effort, patience, and care he put into everything truly stood out. Also huge thank you to Steve in finance. He was amazing to work with and helped make everything smooth, easy to understand, and stress free. The website was easy to use, the reviews were great, and after experiencing everything ourselves, I completely understand why people speak so highly of this dealership. Thank you all for making such an important moment in our lives feel exciting instead of overwhelming.

Lexington Carmax is similar to Lexington itself...a less vibrant, less efficient version of its…read moreolder cousins in other cities. Carmax itself is a wonderful company that I have dealt with many times. The ability to browse the lot and enter any car is really helpful, and the fact that the salespeople don't pressure you is amazing. However, Lexington kind of drops the ball beyond that. First of all, the location isn't ideal. It's insular, and far from any highways. This means when you test drive a car, you don't get any experience driving over 45 mph, so you never get a feel for how the car handles at higher speeds. This isn't something that can be helped, and is one of the design flaws of the city itself if we're being honest. However, something that can be changed is the length of the test drive route. It was disappointingly short, and I ended my drive feeling like I hadn't gotten to know the car at all. Beyond geography, the sales staff that I worked with in Lexington were a little less helpful and personable than staff at other locations. They were unable to find a car in the system that was on the website (what? Maybe they had a good reason like the website is slow to reflect inventory, but nothing was ever explained to me other than "I can't find it"), and they were generally slower and less helpful than I have experienced before. I placed a hold on a car, then found a better one elsewhere and forgot to tell the salesman that I had been working with. It took me a couple of days to realize that he had neglected to follow up with me and try to get a sale before the hold ran out! For some this may be a good thing, but I was unimpressed. Overall, I would recommend the Carmax company to anyone. But, more specifically, I would urge anyone in central Kentucky to try and make the journey to Louisville if you can. The staff is more attentive, the lot is much bigger with a wider selection, the location is right by the interstate, and the test drive route is much longer. Sorry, Lexington, but sometimes mid-size city charm just doesn't cut it.

Then the manager was out sick for the next week. That was until I told them I did not car I was on my up there , all of a sudden he called me back. Then told me it was too that it was " unfortunate" that happened. I asked them to at least trade me out. They wanted 2000.00 down and ADDED 5000.00 to the vehicle. That was 2 years ago. In 2 years the transmission went out. The fuel injectors, high pressure oil sensor, etc... well the motor locked up a couple weeks ago. So I ended up spending over 8000.00 in 2 years. They told me they had inspected and serviced the car. Straight out lie. The oil was as thick as pudding. The brake pads had to be replaced and the air filter looked like coal dust . If you decide to purchase from them and things go wrong remember you have received fair warning .

I was shocked when we asked them to get some numbers on a new car and our car we were considering trading (not seriously considering, dealerships are notorious for insultingly low offers) and was shocked at what they came back with. They came down a significant amount off the new car sticker price and offered a very fair (not great, but fair) price for our trade. Thre was minimal back and forth on prices, we had reached an agreement in less than 10 minutes. The new car had some problems, which they rushed us in to get fixed, no waiting days for an appointment. The only thing keeping this from being five stars is our salesman Tim ( who I would gladly buy another car from and recommend to anyone) was not an expert on the car he sold.

Granted, my dad and i should've been paying attention in the moment. I don't deny my fault in this. However, it is the dealership/carsalesman responsibility and integrity to give their buyers cars that are safe to drive. Me driving 5 hours home after purchasing on those tires was a severe safety concern. Who knows what would've happened if i wasn't already being careful. So yeah if you shop here make sure you pay extra attention to what you're buying. I still love the car overall but that genuinely upset me that they did that. i want to note that, at the time of the paperwork, our car salesman specifically said something about they won't replace tires.... he almost gave it away at that point but I, again, was so blindsided about being excited for this new car, i didn't think much of it.
