Friendly service
We recently bought a used vehicle from DeNooyer and had a great experience. Working with Steve, we had no complaints as he made the process very easy.

Once they have your money the don't care about you
Bought a used truck a 3 weeks ago, found the CV axle is torn and is giving out. The dealer won't fix it, it's a major problem that should have been fixed before they sold it. it's like they are laughing at me saying "haha its your problem now sucker!!" Once they had my money they stopped caring about me and the truck. They say they care about getting us a reliable car, then they do this to me. Slimy place who just wanted to pass the problem onto someone else. I do not recommended to anyone looking for a used car.

Miracle on 8th Street in Holland
If you have ever gone car shopping at a dealership, then you know the odds of having a complete satisfactory experience are, well, a miracle. You usually get pressured into buying something you're not really sure you want and in a manner that puts you on the defensive to buy impulsively without having time to consider all your options. The sales person is more concerned with selling you a car BEFORE YOU LEAVE than in taking the time to help you meet your needs, whether it is doing business with them or with some other resource that may be better equipped to assist you. My wife and I knew we were in the market to replace our older car, but we were looking for assistance to help decide which options (car, price, budget, service, etc.) would be best for our particular situation. Unlike most car sales persons, Dominique DeNooyer shared his expertise with us in a way that made us feel like he was actually buying the car for himself. He patiently informed us about our different 3rd row seating options as he brought us through the different vehicle possibilities. He never questioned our decision to work at a certain price point within our budget by up-selling us on a vehicle we couldn't afford. He negotiated our trade-in fairly and even offered to help sell it whether we bought a car from him or not! There was no undue pressure on us to close a deal before we walked out the door, and in fact, he encouraged us to consider all options such as private party and internet research to secure the best deal possible for us. We really felt like he was putting our interests ahead of his own; thus, the ultimate compliment for any salesman in any sales business. It reminded me of one of my all-time favorite Christmas classics Miracle on 34th Street, where Kris Kringle sends the little boy on his lap over to Gimbels to buy something that Macy's didn't have. I would have loved to buy a car from DeNooyer's, but we decided another car brand fit our needs a bit better. But if I am ever looking for a GM car in the future, I will certainly see Dominique DeNooyer and give him the first opportunity for our business.

David, David, Thank you very much for taking the time to write your very kind review! We hope that our entire staff tries to put themselves in the shoes of the customers and give the best advice possible...sometimes that results in a sale and other times it does not...but in the long run we hope to get our fair share! Thank you again for the opportunity and we hope you enjoy your new vehicle! Thank you, Dominique DeNooyer
Worked to find the right car for me, and a friend
Sales team worked to find exactly the vehicle I wanted, then did the same for a friend I referred. Professional and personal, definitely a great experience. I'll be sending more friends their way!

Poor service all the way around!
Poor customer service skills. Phone rang 24 times before being answered. Offered to take a message and call me back. Was told to bring the car in at 7:30 and all they did was replace a keyfile up. Didn't even start looking at the vehicle until after 330. Still charged $55for taking the car for a drive to listen for a clunking sound which they never could figure out the problem. I will never take a vehicle there again for any reason.

Thank you very much for taking the time to submit a review! I really apologize that you had a poor experience. As GM has pushed to make the GM fleet one of the safest on the road they have significantly increased the recall volume. We pride ourselves in still maintaining a live operator along with 2 designated people to specifically answer service appointment calls. We recently hired the second person to address the issue that you had with calls ringing too often and calls going to voicemail. I know that can be very frustrating and I apologize your call did not get answered in the manner we would like. I apologize your vehicle was not looked at initially when you dropped it off at 7:30. We have recently made an adjustment to address the amount of appointments scheduled to ensure the vehicles are looked at promptly. We are working through 2 more weeks of high traffic schedules and then we have a slightly lower volume for maximum appointments so we can have the time set aside to service our customers promptly and in the manner in which we pride ourselves. This would also involve more time so you would be able to ride with the technician to point out the clunking noise so we could isolate the specific concern and address it properly. Again I apologize for the experience you had...that is not the experience we strive to provide! I would love to hear if you had any other ideas to help us improve! Thank you for your time and feel free to contact me at 616.396.2333. Thank you Dominique DeNooyer 616.396.2333
Great Service
My car was recalled and the other dealers just brushed me off like it wasn't a big deal or like I didn't know what I was talking about. It was absolutely frustrating. When I made an appointment they called me back within the hour and set me up with a new temporary car and took care of me in a timely manner.

Ashley, Thank you for taking the extra time to give us a review! We are very happy that you had a good experience with your vehicle that was recalled! This is the type of experience we strive to have. As you may know the GM is taking a very proactive approach to making the GM fleet one of the safest on the road...this being the case there is a very high volume of recalls out there. We have tried to increase our staff to handle the extra call volume and more loaner vehicles to cover extended service visits. If you ever have any questions down the road don't hesitate to call us! Again thank you for the review! Thank you, Dominique DeNooyer 616.396.2333
Great customer service!
I have always been pleased by the service I received at DeNooyer Chevrolet, but I thought I should mention my most recent service. Driving into work Thursday morning last week, my right front wheel bearings decided that they had had enough and gave out (awful noise!). I had a very busy couple days ahead at work and there was no way it was possible for me to get the truck into service. I called DeNooyer service (Carmen), still not knowing how I was going to get the truck fixed. She told me that they would pick up the truck from my place of employment, and bring it back to DeNooyer to be looked at. The truck was repaired the same day, and returned to my place of employment before I got out of work! That's awesome service! Thanks Carmen and the DeNooyer service team!

I was shopping for a used Cruze. Out of 5 dealerships...
I was shopping for a used Cruze. Out of 5 dealerships that I contacted through cars.com, Denooyer was the only one that was interested in helping me find the car I wanted. I contacted them and found that they had already sold the car listed on cars.com, but Dominique Denooyer called me personally later to inquire about what kind of car I was interested in, and that he could probably get it in. They were all friendly and courteous through a somewhat long process of me determining what I wanted and what I could afford. They were willing to communicate through phone, e-mail and even texts. No question, I would buy another car from Denooyer.

Pushy high pressure sales
I stopped in with a specific vehicle and maximum payment in mind. It took 2 hours to find out that they were going to sell me a different vehicle than I went there for, at a payment $200 more than I wanted to pay. When I declined they sent in one of the owners who tried to pressure me into the sale. He tried so hard to get me to buy the vehicle I thought it was going to physical. This incident happened several years ago, but I have e purchased 3 trucks from other dealers since then with not an issue one. Most recently their employees lowered their U.S flag and left on the ground. Proving to me that all the owners are interested in is money, and will disrespect any one and anything to get it.

Ray, Thank you for taking the time to write your review. We take every review very seriously. I really apologize that you had a poor experience in the past! It is a big deal that you felt pressured to purchase a car...We do always ask if there is anything we could do that would earn your business as we are trying to sell the vehicle...but we tell people the price is always good as long as we have the vehicle...if we can sell it at a certain price today...we can do the same whenever you come back. It sounds like the timing took too long as well...we shoot to wait on our customers in a timely manner...we have greeters who welcome the customers to the store so customers do not have to wait for service. I know it is always frustrating when we could not provide the vehicle you wanted for your desired payment...we never expect anyone to purchase if we can't get the vehicle they want for the budget they can afford. I will make a point to bring this up in our sales meeting so we can make sure that this type experience does not happen again. Here is the response we posted in reference to the flag being lowered. This event happened after hours by a management company that serviced the flag...if the person had not posted on facebook we would never have know about it...so we really appreciate their service bringing it to our attention. Thank you so much for bringing this incident to our attention. We truly apologize as it is never our intention to place the flag on the ground. We have always prided ourselves in taking care of the American flag and flying it proudly. We have a service that comes in to replace the flags after they show signs of wearing out. Unfortunately the flag rips in the wind due to it's size and is difficult to bring down with one person...so last Wednesday we had the flag taken down before the replacement was in because it was calm out. We contacted the company that services and replaces the flag and they sent their employees out after hours to install the new flag the following week. Unfortunately from what you have said they disrespected the flag and the process...again we are so sorry that this occurred! It is our intention to look into this event further and make the necessary adjustments so something like this does not happen in the future. I unfortunately am not able see the post you referenced on Facebook...if you could extend our deepest apologies it would be greatly appreciated. You are welcome to include this email if you think it is appropriate. Thank you again for bringing this to our attention...we are proud of the flag we fly and the country it represents. Thank you, Dominique DeNooyer ddenooyer@denooyerchevy.com We have terminated our relationship with the company as well. Thank you again for your review!...and I apologize for the long response! Feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns at 616.396.2333 or ddenooyer@denooyerchevy.com Thank you, Dominique DeNooyer
