One of the reasons I bought a Chevy vehicle is because I live very close to this dealership. They are disorganized (my part sat for weeks and no one called me). Kaitlyn got the ball rolling after I contacted her about it. Then the service department changed my appointment because he sent the part off to be painted. At the time of order, I specifically asked for it NOT to be painted. I couldn’t afford it. It should have been a quick fix. Even came in at the time they recommended because “less busy.” It took 1-1/2 hours to ... Read More

I've stopped going to McDermott. The service department seems distracted and put off by my being there. I'm not sure if it's because I drive a bolt, or what but I was not welcome. In one case, they said at 1pm the EV tech called in sick that morning, but they failed to call and inform me at all. When I brought this fact up, they said, "what are we supposed to do?" The most recent and last time I pulled up they seemed again totally put off, and said gruffly, "we don't ... Read More

I was looking for a used car. Had already went to three dealerships before going to Dave McDermott Chevrolet. I saw the SUV I wanted online. Kaitlyn responded almost immediately and put me in touch with Brandon Williams, who by the way was awesome! No pressure, very patient, upfront and honest with me. From choosing my SUV to purchasing it, I was very, very pleased! Keep up the great job Dave McDermott Chevrolet!!!

Their service dept picked up my Hummer with a forklift and damaged my vehicle. Who moves a customers vehicle with a forkift?

On Monday I was assured the parts were coning in next day air, here it is Friday and now they are telling me maybe Tuesday.

Very long story short, I went to this dealership in Sep 2017 to lease a vehicle that another Chevy dealer in Scarsdale, NY had tried to get for me but this dealership played numerous games and avoided their sales team to not transfer a 2017 Silverado from Dave McDermott Chevy East Haven, CT to the one in Scarsdale, NY.

She brought it to closest garage which was a Meineke and they informed her it was a broken balance chain. This is a covered GM repair for this type of 4cylinder engine. Not a recall, a "service bulletin". So, she brought it to McDermott for repair. Service proceeded to tell it wasn't the balance chain but instead a blown head gasket. They took 2 weeks to "fix" it and when they were putting it all back together, found the ... Read More

It frustrates me that every individual who seems to visit this dealership has had a positive experience EXCEPT for me. At first the sales representative was friendly and accommodating, once he realized I was older than I initially appeared. Once the deal had been made I started noticing that there were mistakes in the numbers. The sales tax was calculated wrong, my discount was made a rebate so that it was taxable, and the amount charged for the registration and title was 200 over the amount it was initially said to cost.

I was not surprised to see the negative reviews for McDermott Dealership. This group employs and stands by an unethical group of people. They misrepresnted a vehicle, then lied to cover up for each other and refused to take the vehicle back or reconcile in any sort. When I tried to reason, I was called foul langauge by sales manager. No integrity at all here- avoid going to McDermotts - avoid the dissapointment- avoid surrounding yourself with people who dont have respect for you or your business.
