Have always gone to dealer for service but will not go anymore due to adding 3% on credit card purchases (Jim Ellis doing this as such a big establishment is pure greed). plus got a quote for worn that was double what i had it done for.

Couldn’t have had a better experience. I buy A LOT of vehicles and always hate the car buying process. I didn’t hate it this time. Found the perfect truck for my husband, and within a few days we were driving it back to SC. Larion was awesome. He was responsive but not pushy like a lot of sales people. Being 2 hours away, he made it as easy on us as possible. He knows his stuff too. I will purchase from this dealership in the future.

We had the BEST experience with Larion!

We had the BEST experience with Larion! We reached out to the dealership beforehand to see who would be best to work with, and he was the first name mentioned. We talked about the type of cars we were interested before getting to the dealership, and he sent videos ahead of time to show the inventory he had, has specific cars ready for me to test drive.. it was so seamless. He wasn’t pushy at all and was so patient as we looked multiple cars. He was extremely knowledgeable about each car, the features and showed us everything. We ended up with a fantastic car and couldn’t be happier!

We hope that the Servicing Department will be as attentive and thorough as we have this vehicle serviced by them. We would highly recommend any one coming to Jim Ellis GMC ask for Larry. GREAT JOB!

Ted in service is very courteous and always explains things. The prices for replacement keys was extremely high. I was also surprised Ted said this dealership did not have the technician to check my existing keyfob not transmitting effectively with the starter…resulting in having to leave car there 2 2days. Finally, communications is done by text rather than phone so I had to call several times to clarify messaging.

They forged my signature on a contract and sent it to the finance company. It changed my trade value by 8k, the residual on the lease was higher. I told them about it and they didn’t give a care in the world. The worst part is they haven’t even made it right and I bought this truck in October of last year. Go to Heyward Allen if you want a GMC. Same pricing, and they are honest. Don’t buy from these crooks!!!

I wanted to share some feedback regarding my recent

I wanted to share some feedback regarding my recent experience at Jim Ellis. My vehicle was in service for a pending repair of approximately $1,800, coming only six months after I had already completed a major turbo repair. Because of the circumstances, I made the decision to trade the vehicle and purchase another one from your dealership. The experience started off very positively. The initial greeting and interaction were welcoming and professional. However, at some point during the process, the experience shifted and became much less positive. One unexpected issue was the discussion surrounding the diagnostic fee. Since I was purchasing a vehicle from the same dealership where my vehicle was being serviced, the handling of that charge felt like a curveball and left me disappointed. Additionally, the vehicle I purchased came with only one key, despite being a one-owner lease vehicle. Within days of purchase, I also had to replace the battery in the key fob because the car hesitated to recognize the key fob. The finance process itself was acceptable, but the overall transaction took nearly four hours. My overall impression was that because I was purchasing a lower-priced vehicle, the level of service and attention may have been to lower standards. Whether that was the case or not, it was how the experience felt from my perspective. My recommendation would be to treat every customer and every transaction as important. You never know who you are serving, what their future purchasing may be, or how many people they may influence through their personal and professional

Dewayne and his whole service team were outstanding! After the initial inspection, we were provided with a very helpful & informative video that walked thru their diagnosis of the problem & outlined the recommended repair. And even though it took a day or two longer than we had thought initially, they found & fixed the problem for a lot less than we had (anxiously) expected. Everyone we dealt with at the dealership (including the front receptionist, whose name I don’t know, but who kindly helped arrange a short ride for me to be dropped off at the Enterprise location just down the street) was courteous, friendly & professional. I mean it when I say: as long as g as this is the level of service provided by your dealership, we will never go to another GMC dealer again!

Rodney is someone I can definitely see myself doing

Rodney is someone I can definitely see myself doing business with again in the future. He’s a talented, kind, and well-rounded young guy. Even when things didn’t look too favorable, he stayed optimistic and professional, I really appreciate that. Keep up the great work!

From start to finish, the overall sales process was good.

From start to finish, the overall sales process was good. However, communication with Rodney could've been better in regards to transparency. Other than that, considering past experiences with other dealers, this was a quick and successful transaction.

I had an excellent experience with Corey Kopec and Larion

I had an excellent experience with Corey Kopec and Larion Downs at GMC Buick. They went above and beyond to make the process smooth and stress-free, showing genuine professionalism and care every step of the way. Their knowledge, patience, and commitment to great customer service truly stood out. I couldn’t be happier with the experience and highly recommend them to anyone looking for outstanding service at GMC Buick.

Jim Ellis Buick GMC exceeded my expectations in customer

Jim Ellis Buick GMC exceeded my expectations in customer service and value received. I got a great buy on a pre-owned car and the dealership processed most of the transaction virtually allowing me to show up to test drive the vehicle and complete the paperwork in less than an hour. It was an awesome buying experience!

I am currently pleased with the work they was done.

I am currently pleased with the work they was done. The communication from Chris my service advisor left a lot to be desired. Every piece of the process took longer than he said it would. When I spoke with him, I always felt like I was just a number which is the exact opposite of what the hold message says they want you to feel like. When I kept asking about the delays, the information I got from Chris was minimal and he seemed annoyed I asked. I finally had to speak with the manager in the Parts department who gave me a very detailed explanation as to what was going on with the parts. He even told me one has been on back ordered but that it had finally be resolved. He looked up the tracking and told me exactly when they would receive them. I was frustrated that I could not get any of this information from Chris. I'll return to Jim Ellis but will ask for a different service advisor next time. I'll hope to be treated less as a number and be given the information that I am looking for.

The service department at Jim Ellis GMC goes above and beyond and they are easy to communicate with. They fixed an issue with my truck even when GMC denied it. You can’t beat service like that. I recommend them to everyone I talk to and will continue too. Thank you to the team and do us all a favor and stay great! Thanks again
