very unsatisfied

This is my 3rd vehicle I purchased from them in 4 years, the first was a new 2019 Edge, that I had constant problems with and ended up trading in to a Chevy dealer with 27000 miles on it, the other vehicles was a 2004 Ford Pu and ended up spending $1000 went I brought it home because of a computer chip, and recently bought a 2012 silverado and think there is a wheel bearing issue or cvc joint issue, I have only had this for 2 weeks now and already having issues, and to make matters worse I ordered a key fob from them and they called me to see if I could come in and pay for it and pick it up but they said they wouldnt be able to program it for me for a week, I am tired of this run around and wont be doing anymore service work or anything there!

Motor that is now shot!!!!

My car broke down 20 miles after leaving there shop!!!! They clearly covered up there mistake and left me hanging. To top it off I broke down leaving there after having my car towed back to the dealership. After talking to the general manager it was very clear they had no intentions of making this right. Colin offered me 500 dollars for in his words a crappy situation he can keep it.My clasic car motor is now shot. Word of mouth travels a long way. The sad part is I bought two new vehicles in 2020 from this dealership. If your vehicle breaks down after leaving this dealership take it to a different garage and then contact schwieter. It will save you alot of headaches.

Dealership is using bait and switch scams

I found a vehicle for sale through this dealership. After inquiring about it I found the dealership had changed the listing price and miles. They had increased the price by 20% and the miles went from 154,000 to 214,000. After some back and forth and sending the screenshot that they didn’t expect me to have they claimed it never came through multiple times. I offered their original listing price plus TTL and they refused. Seems like a bait and switch scam is going on.

Quick and Easy Service

Was driving a long distance and decided to stop and see if I could get an oil change and take a break. They got me right in and also gave me a inspection with my oil change.

Stay away!

Very dissatisfied. Bought a Pre Wholesale 2004 2wd Truck from them about 2 months ago for 5k as they proclaimed great deal. When I test drove the truck they had to jump start it because "someone forgot to change the battery" and it was dealer than a door nail. They said that if we wanted to purchase the truck they would throw in a new battery. (It was not new, we had to remind them and with attitude we were given a 2 or 3 year old battery i noticed once i got home.) I asked if there was anything I should know about the truck and they said just spongy brakes needing bled, thats it. Did the test drive and all seemed ok and no engine lights or such. It was too late to finalize a deal so I returned the next morning and didn't paperwork. Truck was running and waiting for me upon finishing signing. Immediately noticed while climbing into truck to leave that the engine light was on. 🙄 The dead battery reset the light and nobody had the integrity or honesty to tell me about the engine light on a AS-IS No Warranty sale. I would NOT have bought it had I have known about a engine light and you can't tell me that a "forgotten dead battery" and "appearance of engine light immediately following finalization of paperwork" is just coincidence. I have the utmost confidence that they knew about the light and took advantage of the dead batter to sell a vehicle. I called and complained after finding out that its about $2500 worth of work needing done and having already put another $400ish into the truck. Of course I just got that their standard answer for the the Pre Wholesale is "we haven't inspected the vehicle so we know nothing about it". So basically I just paid 5k for a vehicle worth at most 2k because they were not straight forward with me and have no interest in trying to remedy the situation. Save your money and go elsewhere.

Dealer response

We offer Pre-wholesale vehicles for sale prior to sending them to the auction. We have every customer sign a disclosure that the vehicle has not been inspected and customer is offered to take the vehicle to a mechanic before purchasing. It is unfortunate that the vehicle needed some repairs 2 months after purchase. We were straight forward with you and nothing to hide since we don't inspect the vehicles. We do everything we can so the customer understands that. That is why we had you sign the pre-wholesale disclosure that they vehicle has not been inspected, customer is available to take it to a mechanic prior to purchase, another 2 disclosure that they vehicle is sold AS-IS no warranty because the vehicle was older than 7 years old, and another disclosure that it was AS-IS because of the higher miles.
