And Andy it’s not the same dealership.
the way i see it there being an ass to you is because your young, well im asuming you areunder 25, i know from personal expirience that you get treated muchbetter when your not some suposed punk ass kid, a frined of mine blew up his new subi and they said go piss up a tree, his dad came in and after 10 minutes of talking he hada new short block

i worked there (basil chevy) and i can’t really say anything nice.
My dad used to work at the mentioned place…While we have never bought a car from there, Tony has fixed my car many times and always does great work. Maybe its because he is friends with my dad :gotme:

is this the dealer at the corner of transit and como?
if so…i will have a followup post/story that will contribute nicely to the stories posted thus far in this thread about Basil…
[/quote]
99% that is where it is located so let the story begin
I’ve personally had nothing but problems with the Basil family of dealerships.
Basil on Transit & Wehrle
Basil Resale on Sheridan & Harlem
and Joe Basil on Transit in Depew.
Not only will I NEVER consider a transaction with them again, I refer anyone & everyone in that market to consider the same.
Two issues were service (warranty / repair) related. The other issue was sales / customer service related. None of the incidents saw a short or easy resolution.
blk300tt - sorry that You had to find out the hard way.

no, GM makes shit. i like my fast piece of shit c5, but the build quality still sucks
headlight gears that still fuck up shy of 70k after you convert them to brass
yeah, :tdown: just the tip of the iceberg on my LS1 go-kart
andy,
this is the one on transit near wherle…tho i assume all the dealerships are run the same way as i got nowhere talking to John basil himself.
strokingnova,
I am 26 and consider myself to be a very reasonable guy until people try to screw me over. I approached this situation very mature and calm and was still treated like total shit.
num482,
It states nowhere on my warranty that if i “tear apart” the truck to find the problem that the warranty is now void. Explain to me how taking the cover off voids my warranty. I highly doubt i could find anything which would provide the leverage for me to break that shaft that holds the spider gear. Also i purchased this truck for my own personal use. Why would i intentionally go in there and start fucking with things?
I recieved another call this afternoon from the service manager who informed me that after first replacing a gear set(which didnt fix it) then replacing a pinion bearing (which also didnt fix it) now they are going to source a used rear end. If he is such a super slueth to discover that i rammed a curb and popped an axle how come he cant diagnose the problem with the rear end and fix it correctly the first time?
damn, sorry to hear about your troubles man. sounds like a dealership i def wont be going to :eyebrow:
:roll: No comment on Basil.
I have dealt with their used car assholes, and they are assholes. Their sales people are ruthless bastards. They lost a $90k sale because of their pushiness…
