After a good experience last January when we were shopping for a new commuter car, we stopped in at Harris Chevrolet this past October looking to up size our family car. Mark was great and in no time shopping for a new commuter car, we stopped in at Harris Chevrolet this past October looking to up size our family car. Mark was great and in no time got us into a 2005 Caravan that fit the bill. We knew going in that it would likely cost us more thru Harris than if we bought a car privately but with the convenience of being able to trade in our older wagon and with features like the Car Proof Report and Vehicle Safety Inspection it seemed well worth it. Unfortunately, on top of the expected list of deficiencies we also found out after an at times white knuckle drive to Tofino that the vehicles brake rotors were shot. After checking with Harris we were advised that nothing would be done even though the brakes were clearly a safety issue that would need to be repaired right away. Our advice to you: When buying a used vehicle from Harris and they tell you that "You are welcome to take this vehicle, at your own expense, directly to your own 'certified facility' for a pre-purchase inspection", I suggest you do it as the included Safety Report is nearly worthless. If our minivan before it was repaired "meets or exceeds the minimum requirements of the Motor Vehicle Act" as claimed by the Safety Report from Harris then the Motor Vehicle Act needs to be either updated or tossed out completely. The bottom line: We are enjoying our minivan even though it has already and will likely again cost us more than expected, and in roughly 4 1/2 - 5 years time when we go to purchase a brand new minivan to replace this one it will likely NOT be at Harris Oceanside Chevrolet. All for the sake of about $200. Mike and Mary More

I am probably one of the older customers, being 85 this I am probably one of the older customers, being 85 this year, so may have a somewhat different view than younger patrons. When Ryan suggested leas I am probably one of the older customers, being 85 this year, so may have a somewhat different view than younger patrons. When Ryan suggested leasing I became interested because it provides me with little to be reponsible for in the ongoing upkeep and the option of keeping the vehicle or returning it after three years, depending on the situation at thet time. My objectives were to get the new vehicle without exhaustive searching so am not well able to comment on the relatiove merits of the cost of the lease, which seemed fair to me as presented by Ryan. Ryan and all the staff I met were courteous and helpful, demonstrating competency in their jobs. I am pleased with the car and look forward to much trouble-free driving. All in all they made what can be a stressful experience for someone such as myself about as easy as it gets. I have no problem in giving them my unqualified recommendation to prospective future customers. More

Steve Austin and his team of workers were exceptionally helpful with all of the questions we had during our pre purchasing our used 2004 Chev Diesel truck. We had asked specific questions in regards to helpful with all of the questions we had during our pre purchasing our used 2004 Chev Diesel truck. We had asked specific questions in regards to the Diesel engine and they spent the time to research this for us. We are from Victoria and they all stayed later than closing to fulfill the sale of the truck Service Manager Dale Geddes had noticed the oil service reminder had not been done therefore he took care of this for us and also assisted us with accommodation suggestions. We will definitely recommend Harris Oceanside to our friends and family and will deal with them again. Thank you Wendy and Ian Sobkowicz More

Ryan did everything he possibly could so that I was able to drive off in the fully loaded Cruze that I so badly wanted. Thanks to Ryan, Kelly (for looking after my schnauzers), Sharlene for making the pap to drive off in the fully loaded Cruze that I so badly wanted. Thanks to Ryan, Kelly (for looking after my schnauzers), Sharlene for making the paperwork painless, and Mike for approving the deal. This is the fourth new Chevrolet I've purchased from Oceanside and have been completely satisfied each time! This new Cruze is so fantastic I probably won't be in the market for another new car for quite some time. More
