James is always very professional and helpful. He explains all services recommended very thoroughly. He always asks me if I need a ride anywhere while my car is being serviced and walks me to my car when everything is complete. The new camera “arch” is unbelievable! Also I like that they call me to remind me of upcoming oil changes that are due based on my mileage. I would highly recommend James and Jim Ellis.

Disappointed, I was sent an estimate, but when I went to pay, it was significantly higher! The charges were inflated from the estimate… Why send an estimate if it’s not valid! It’s not rocket science, oil change & fuel filter… Those are the same charges every time…. When I asked about why, I didn’t get a straight answer…. The service writer acted like it’s normal to do that… That’s just not good customer service…

I scheduled an appointment, I arrived 5 minutes after the appointment. I was told 2 hours wait time. I expected less due to basic service being performed. I left after 3 hours when my vehicle was finally complete. My vehicle was not inspected until an hour after the appointment time. I called to check on the vehicle just before 3 hours and was told he was finishing up paperwork and just got my keys. 5 minutes was the eta and he would come find me. He came around 20 minutes later. Adding to my issues, I used a GM credit card and was told I would be charged 3% service fee and they could not waive it. That should be a perk of using your branded credit card at the dealership.

I turned my lease in yesterday to get into a new one, and honestly, it was the easiest car buying experience I’ve ever had. David reached out to me on my cell before I even walked into the dealership, which already told me he was going to take care of me. He was polite, he listened, and I could tell he actually cared about getting me the best deal instead of just closing a sale. I told him my budget going in, and somehow he came in under it. I still can’t believe that happened. No pressure, no games, just straight up honesty the whole way through. Five stars doesn’t even feel like enough. If I could give David a 6, I would. He’s got a customer for life now. See you in three years for my next one, David! If you’re heading to Jim Ellis, do yourself a favor and ask for David.

Started off bad.

Started off bad. Service that was paid for appeared to not be done. Brakes(front and rear) both appeared not to be completed. So I was very apprehensive that any of the service was completed. Spoke with Charles who then got the service manager Nick involved. Nick had my vehicle picked up from our home. Brought back to their shop. Nick insured all the services were completed and had the truck returned to our home. He even had the truck detailed. So bad first experience but Charles and Nick went above and beyond to make us feel secure that our vehicle was taken care of properly. We will be returning for future services. Those two guys are simply wonderful.

He was polite, he listened, and I could tell he actually cared about getting me the best deal instead of just closing a sale. I told him my budget going in, and somehow he came in under it. I still can’t believe that happened. No pressure, no games, just straight up honesty the whole way through. Five stars doesn’t even feel like enough. If I could give David a 6, I would. He’s got a customer for life now.

I turned my lease in yesterday to get into a new one, and honestly, it was the easiest car buying experience I’ve ever had. David reached out to me on my cell before I even walked into the dealership, which already told me he was going to take care of me. He was polite, he listened, and I could tell he actually cared about getting me the best deal instead of just closing a sale. I told him my budget going in, and somehow he came in under it. I still can’t believe that happened. No pressure, no games, just straight up honesty the whole way through. Five stars doesn’t even feel like enough. If I could give David a 6, I would. He’s got a customer for life now. See you in three years for my next one, David! If you’re heading to Jim Ellis, do yourself a favor and ask for David.

Jim Ellis dealership was easy to work with and the purchase of my truck went very smooth. I first made contact with the internet manager, Richard Nouris, who assisted with getting me the numbers I requested. Then salesman Victor Harris, closed the deal like a boss! Victor was personable, knowledgeable and overall cared about my purchase experience. He was forthcoming, transparent and did not pressure me to make any hasty decisions. I highly recommend the Jim Ellis dealership, especially using Victor as the salesman, and would buy another vehicle from them anytime.

Candice Blumberg was a pleasure to work my purchase out with. We started communicating through email in which she was very timely with her responses. She was very accommodating and considerate with my time frames as well. When I got to the dealership she already had the truck I was interested in pulled up front and I was test driving within minutes of arriving. Afterwards she continued to be kind and not pushy or making me feel pressured at all. After the paperwork and deal was done she even took her time to help me return my rental vehicle by meeting me at enterprise with my newly purchased truck. Overall great car buying experience. I would recommend to others and even return again myself in the future.
