The truck was handed over to me in very good and clean condition. The salesperson went over the operation of the truck and options that came with it. She made sure I was comfortable using the options. She also set up the bluetooth portion of my cell phone with the Onstar so I am able to have hands free phoning. More

I had good expriences over the years with the Service department. By the beginning of June the lease of my Optra expires.

GMAC has written me twice reminding me "If your dealer has not contacted you please contact him...." I have not heard from Oceanside Chev until this day. Therefore I came to Harris Oceanside in Parksville asking what is needed to end the lease and to buy the car. After a few initial problems to find a person who would be willing to talk to me the Gentlemen right away started the procedure to fill out forms to end the contract. I told him that was not why I came, I just wanted some informations. He however proceeded with the de-registering asking questions, like : have you been in a professional race, or have you jused the car as a taxi etc,etc. I felt his was irrevelant since I wanted to buy the car "as is ". The whole conversation was polite but not friendly. At the end he suggested that there had to safety check, even though two weeks previous I had a check up with this dealer. I took the car back at the next morning at 8 AM. I asked to call me when it was ready. Around 2 PM I did not receive a call therefore I went myself to Oceanside Chev and asked for someone to help with my case. The Gentlemen from the day before was not there but a Lady invited me in her office. She did not know about the forms from the day before even though I was told everything would be ready when I come back. I had the feeling I was intruding in her more important work she was doing before I came. She went away briefly and came with the files from the day before. Without explanation she started asking me questions: die you used your car.... I asked her why she is doing it again as I have answered these questions before she very short said I have not answered these questions to her. Finally she asked how I wanted to pay, my answer was by Credit Card as I always did at the dealer. She informed me that it had to be a check. I was not informed about the fact that Harris Chev does not accept credit card for buying a $ 5000 car. Since I live in Port Alberni my check book was also there. This Lady looked at me strange as I asked if she wanted me to drive to Port Alberni and to bring a check. She suggested to go to a Branch of my Bank in Parksville to get a certified Check. This I did, I received a Bank Draft. With this she was willing to change the ownership to my name. All this was conducted in a very unpleasant way. I had expected to be treated like anyone who is willing to buy a car but I had the feeling that my request was not worthy of any kind of friendliness. Not anyone shook even my hand or gave me the informations I asked for. A for few years ago I bought an old Jeep from you for my daughter. I enjoyed how we were treated at that time. This time however it was a negative experience. In case I have to buy another vehicle I probably will look at another dealer. More

Jason Rank, our salesman, went over and above on all levels to be helpful in finding what suited us best and negotiating the best deal. His service was quite simply excellent! Jason was very thorough, even coming in on his day off to ensure the vehicle got turned over to us well. Tom Christianson, Manager, was supportive, helpful and available not only to us as customers, but to his staff member as well. We would recommend this dealership to others without hesitation - and will. With thanks, Eric & Joan Walker More

I have used Oceanside's service department several times over the last couple of years and always found them to be honest, freindly and very helpful.

So, when I was in the market for a vehicle I went straight to Oceanside. I told Megan exactly what I was looking for in a used truck. Within three days she had found a truck that exceded my expectations and was within my price range. Great dealership to work with. More
