Sunset Chevrolet/Buick/GMC

The Best of the Best i just got my new chevrolet cruze. Thank you Ben Garcia and G sales manager. A+++ Dealer

I got a low tire message on my way to St Pete and was lucky enough to find Sunset Chevy. They got me into the service center and put a new rear tire on in about an hour. In addition they took care of submitting a claim on my road hazard policy to get the whole thing covered. Special thanks to Service Consultant Nizar who turned a bad day into a good day!

We are on a road trip, and developed van trouble. Even though they were very busy, they worked us in, did an excellent repair at a very reasonable price. The service consultant, Chris Shaberts, took very good care of us. We highly recommend Sunset’s service department.

I was able to get a service appointment when I wanted. Easy to drop off the car & wait in the nice Customer Lounge. Coffee machine with every type of hot drink available at the touch of a button. Fresh flowers in the ladies room, real plants, magazines, comfy chairs, a work table & large TV too in the lounge. (They do have a shuttle to Siesta Key if you’re going to be waiting a few hours.) Kathy in service was quick to get my car in & explain everything before I went to the waiting area. Service people are so nice, very professional.

The service department at Sunset Auto has my business, now and always. I cannot say enough good things about their courtesy, professionalism, and expert care of you and your car. You are assigned a service advisor who personally takes care of you from when you arrive to when you leave. When the time comes to purchase a new vehicle, I feel confident I will receive the same attention, courtesy & respect in the dealership as in the service department.
I moved to Florida 3 years ago. I had a great mechanic in Ohio, and was a little concerned about finding a place for my car’s service needs in my new hometown. My 2003 Pontiac Vibe had a minor recall a few years ago. Last year I decided I really needed to get it attended to at a local dealership. I had Sunset do an oil change and inspection while I was there. I received a complete report on the condition of the vehicle, including things I already knew about. No pressure, just a report and recommendations along with courteous service.
Fast forward to now: The odometer rolled over 200,000 miles recently. That, along with a reduction in gas mileage over the summer made me decide the Vibe needed a thorough going over. I made the appointment & dropped the car off. I received a report on the car after the oil change and inspection with a maintenance recommendation that would address the gas mileage issue. The report, a thorough inspection of the car, showed the car in excellent shape. This did a great deal for my peace of mind regarding my high-​mileage vehicle.
In summation: Sunset is the place to go for all your vehicle’s maintenace needs — both major and minor.

After receiving numerous emails about a certain new car I called the salesman for more pricing details and he said he would call me back in a few minutes on specifics. Four days later I never heard back from him so I went to another dealership in Bradenton and purchased a new Chevy. I guess that the sales people are making all the money they need and don’t really care about any more new business.

Just purchased a new Camaro today! It really was a super easy transaction. My salesman, Todd Pierce, was recommended through my lender, is incredibly knowledgeable about the vehicles, answers honestly (I know because I tested him with questions I already knew the answer to) and I liked him instantly. He was a great salesman without being at all annoying «salesman-​y.» I had about 60 minutes to listen to some of the other conversations between customers/​salesmen and, had I gotten any others, the deal would’ve been killed.

I do not like saying bad things about people. However, I feel as though I have to warn women and people who don’t know vehicles about this service department. I purchased my vehicle in Michigan brand new in 2009. I had a fantastic mechanic there and my other half has done all of the other maintenance since I’ve moved to Sarasota in 2013. We purchased brand new parts and put them on the car about two months before I brought my car into Sunset Chevrolet. I went in for an alignment and two new tires to be put on. That day I sat in the waiting area over 4 hours. I was patient and still had a cheery attitude even though it shouldn’t have taken that long. I talked to one of the salesman and discussed interest in looking into a new truck for my other half. I finally got the car back and it was driving so incredibly off I was shocked. I called a few days later and described to them it felt like it wasn’t even aligned. They took it in another whole day … Still wasn’t fixed and it was even pulling me to one side of the road. I brought it to them one last time and it still wasn’t fixed after they kept my car overnight. It felt as though it was getting worse every time they had it in the shop. As we are trying to fix what they had messed up, we notice our new parts we had put on are different than what we purchased. Disappointed to say the least.

I can’t say enough about this dealer and their service department. they are really wonderful. I have bought two cars here and I currently use their service department for all major service. If the location was a bit more convenient for me I’d use it for minor service as well.
My Service Consultant for the last five years has been Nizar Hudda and he quite frankly has changed the way I feel about dealing with the service departments at auto dealers. In the past I was always leary of the dealer service departments and had very little faith that they weren’t trying to «take me for a ride». Nizar changed my mind.
If you have a GM vehicle in need of repair give them a try. If you are looking for a Chevy, definitely stop here. The Buick dealer is right next door as well.
