The service at Garavel is always excellent. Recently, I had an emergency situation with my cooling system. I contacted Ronnie Goss, the Assistant Service Manager at Garavel and he gave me some very wise advice on how to deal with the problem. After I had the car towed to Garavelle, Ronnie had the technicians do a full review of the cooling system and other parts of the car. The technicians quickly came up with the cause of the problem and how to correct it. Ronnie also did some research on my extended warranty and found that the repairs were fully covered by my warranty. I would highly recommend Garavel and Ronnie for their excellent service. read more

Hi, Just wanted to check in to update all including the Garavel team. Back in April i dropped off my car again, I was called a week later to be told that they ordered a part. A week passed by and i got another call, they finally got around to reading my review. I was told the following, that because I gave them a negative review I was going to be treated the Same, and they will no longer service my car, seems like a recurring theme there. If they can't resolve your issue and you post a negative review they decide not to deal with you. I posted a photo here of when the call occurred so that if owners are interested in a training opportunity they should use the call as an example for what not to say to a customer. I left a message for Jeremy Garavel back then but never got a call back, nevertheless, I didn't give up neither did Stolantis, the manufacturer, they are professionals unlike the service staff at Garavel Stolantis followed up every week. I brought my car over to Tasca Jeep in Elmsford N.Y. The problem that over two years eluded Garavel was identified and resolved in two weeks by Tasca. Tasca will now get my buisness along with 5 other Jeep vehicles we have in our family. If you are having an issue with service because they can't resolve it call Stolantis and open up a case. They told Stolantis that they couldn't replicate the issue and that is why they turned the car back to me. The service guy told me that it doesn't occur all the time, as to say, why don't you live with it. I'm happy my Jeep is working properly now. I love my wrangler! Wish I had purchased it somewhere else. read more

BUYER BEWARE!! Bought a used Grand Caravan in Dec 2025. Unknown to me, But probably most definitely to the service department, it had a bad head which is a common problem from the factory with the 2019 and he 2020 engines. Talked with service that sent me to customer care who sent me back to service and now I don't get any calls back. The engine light is on, and it will not pass inspection. It is going to cost around $3000 to fix. This problem is well known and all over Google. Because I did not buy one of their WAY over priced Warranty's, It is pretty much tough shit. I still can't believe they put it out on the lot with that problem. SO BUYER BEWARE!!! read more

Unfortunately, one conversation completely changed my experience with this dealership. I had been communicating with Carlos, and my experience with him was positive. He was respectful, professional, and I felt comfortable communicating with him. Things changed when I spoke with Bob, the sales manager. Almost immediately, I felt uncomfortable with how assertively he spoke to me. The conversation became focused on getting me to state a monthly payment I was willing to commit to, and I felt increasingly pressured to give him an answer. I was considering a major purchase and wanted the opportunity to understand the financing and make my own decision without feeling pushed. I'm glad I did not give in to that pressure. I also found the experience disappointing because the dealership puts a lot of emphasis on being family-owned. I expected that to translate into a welcoming, patient, and respectful customer experience. My interaction with Bob unfortunately left me feeling exactly the opposite. Ultimately, I chose not to move forward. To be fair, Carlos treated me well, and I don't want my experience with Bob to reflect negatively on the way Carlos handled our conversations. My criticism is specifically about my interaction with Bob and the pressure I experienced. A car is a significant financial commitment. Customers should be able to ask questions, review their options, and walk away if they aren't comfortable without feeling intimidated or pressured into making an immediate commitment. read more

I received a recall notice for my 2019 Jeep Cherokee. When I called to schedule the appointment, the service department staff said they could not get me in because they don't have parts. So I secured an appointment a few months out for something different hoping that by the time it came, the parts would be in. I called a few days ago to ask whether the parts were in and the same front desk woman said yes, and that is what my appointment was for. I took time off of work today to drive the car in only to find out that there are no parts. The front desk staff of the service department is so rude and bothered by any help. They are asked to give customers. She hangs up the phone before you're finished talking. I won't be using this location in the future. read more

Our engine died (due to a cam problem many wranglers are having) at under 30,000 miles. I have been in and out of the shop most of the summer (was without a car for 3 months+). The top half of the engine was replaced and garavels admission with out properly connecting the fuel injection. Our car smelled like gasoline and then the engine broke again as a result. I called and called to bring it back in with no response. I finally walked in and demanded an appointment to fix it. They only gave me one after my last post on their review board. I also purchased an extended warranty and paid extra for rental coverage. Now the engine is stalling and still smells like gasoline-I have left voice messages and texts since August. Today when I went in to request an appointment and was told if I want a rental it would likely be months (I've been trying to make an appointment since picking it up in mid August) but they would let me know what could be done about an appointment. A hour later I received this text message from the service manager in the picture-setting they would no longer work on my car, and have stopped responding since. I have also heard from the area rep that have not returned their calls requesting an appointment or rental permit my warranty. My car doesn't even have 40,000 miles and I paid $70,000 after buying it new. Also-at the time of sale they told me it was so much more than a regular jeep because it's a hybrid. But when I looked into trading it in the same sales rep that sold me the car and told me that said a hybrid and regular jeep are comparably priced. When I pointed out the discrepancy he said "well we are in the business of making $". I have never had such an awful and increasingly hostile experience buying or fixing a car in my life. I would not recommend getting a bicycle there. They say they stand by their car owners-but as my 4th car there to be treated this way because they don't want me in handle the lemon they sold me is bewildering and disappointing. read more

Important: going forward all service payments should be paid with a check or otherwise charged 3% fee for credit card. Rich, the service manager has always been incredibly helpful in the past. No sure if he's still working there as left him multiple messages, but never call back. worked with Ron as service advisor. Ron was helpful and got the multiple batteries in the vehicle replaced and an oil change done quickly. Though will need to go back to get missing clips that were removed in order to get to Parts needing replacement. Their prices are extremely expensive, will be looking for other JEEP repair facility. read more

Garavel Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram - Photos from Facebook when shopping for a jeep I wish I purchased years ago because Garavel is the most amazing to purchase a vehicle - Auto Repair Near Me - Norwalk, Connecticut

My experience with this dealership: NOT RECOMMENDED I bought a Jeep with only 28,000 miles, practically "new." However, during the first oil change, less than a year after the purchase, I was informed of a list of issues that should not appear in a vehicle like this: * Oil leaks * Both batteries defective * The fuel economizer not working * The oil evaporator also in bad condition I want to clarify that the car is driven less than 10 miles a day, so these failures make no sense in a supposedly almost-new vehicle. All of this inevitably raises the question: What quality of cars does this dealership actually sell? For me, it does not inspire confidence at all. If a car develops this many problems so quickly, one would expect the dealership to know and clearly communicate the real condition of the vehicle from the beginning, with 100% transparency. On top of that, I've been waiting almost two years for a replacement part, which only makes the experience worse. My conclusion: Based on my personal experience, this place is 100% NOT RECOMMENDED. read more

Salesman Juan kept in constant contact all week. Salesman Carlos took us when we visited and stepped us through the process to buy out our lease, and help us with the purchase of the car we leased. Then Evelyn from finance finished off the process by getting us a good finance deal. They were all friendly and the experience was great. It was my Wife's Birthday and she was so happy. Thank you everyone and we will be back and spread the good word about Garavel. read more

Garavel Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram - Great place and great environment - Auto Repair Near Me - Norwalk, Connecticut

So helpful and kind, would definitely be going back in the future! Answered all my questions and I felt confident with my purchase.

Can't say enough about everyone I came into contact with! Sometimes, as a woman, I have felt a little dismissed at car dealerships but the opposite was true here & that kept me from going to anywhere else. Selection was fantastic & I got a few extra bells & whistles, so happy with my Jeep Grand Cherokee & would recommend you check Garavel out if you're in the market. Thank you again guys read more

They didn't want my CASH money. I made an offer and the only thing the salesperson did was shake his head NO. I came UP on my price and he still shook his head NO. Not even a counteroffer from him nor did he even get his sales manager involved. I won't be back and if I do, it won't be with salesman Joe. read more

While in the Norwalk CT area (40 min. From me) I happened upon Garavel Jeep. Since I was going to need to turn in my leased jeep in two months, I stopped in to see what deals and options there may be. Everyone at this dealership was very cordial. Extra precautions were in place due to COVID. I first met with the Sales Manager Ernesto. Turns out he is from the same place I grew up. I gave him some background on my jeep and what I wanted in the new one. I was given a price and was informed it may be 6-8 weeks for delivery. I did not sign or agree at this point as I wanted to visit other dealers in my home area. After two weeks and 5-6 dealer calls/visits, no other dealer could match the quote I was given by Garavel. I ordered from Garavel even though I was 40 minutes from this dealer. 6 weeks later I had the exact Jeep I wanted and Garavel bought out my existing Jeep at a very fair price. I have to say that I never felt that "used car salesman" attitude from anyone at this dealership. Kudos to Ernesto and Maikel in sales for this positive experience and outcome. read more

Garavel Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram - 2021 Wrangler JLUR - Auto Repair Near Me - Norwalk, Connecticut

It's the worst dealership I've ever seen. They repainted my car three times because of paint bubbling on hood and done even more damage to the vehicle. Horrible customer care, it's insane how they fooling people. Now I have to hire a layer and get through all this problems because of their incompetence and chance to save some money hiring cheep body shop. It's started with hood paint bubbling and after their first repair it come back again in just a few months, than they did a second try and it was awful color match and overspray on fenders. Then they did a third repair trying to fix all mess they painted hood and both fenders with horrible transition to front door and bumper. So now I'm the "happiest" Jeep owner ever and it's not finished yet... read more

6 months since I bought my vehicle and still can't get a call back from their service department.

Maikel Maikel Maikel. This is the man to contact After 10 dealers, the Garavel team earned my business and my trust. Couldn't be happier. Purchased a 2021 Freedom Wrangler, all done over the phone and email. PJ was the initial contact, provided numbers and information. Very prompt to follow up. He teamed up with Ernesto to provide and authorize numbers. Once that was settled, along came Maikel. Man, what a guy. Helped me surprise the wife who was oblivious to the whole purchase, played along, and made the surprise special. I gotta say that I consider him a friend now. Thank you Maikel. Thank you Garavel team. Ernesto, PJ, Mary. Mi gente latina, Maikel es de habla hispana, es un vendedor integro y honesto. read more

First time buying a car and the engine light went on immediately after pulling off the lot. Jeep caught on fire 6 weeks later. Lucky to be alive. Paul garavel didn't respond until I posted photos of the fire. Those photos have been removed. He offered to pay me , then withdrew his offer after the pictures were taken down. He probably paid to have the pictures removed also. Do not trust this dealership. In regards to Paul's comment. Fact: I bought a jeep from him Fact: the engine light came on and it had transmission problems the day I bought it, which cost me $2500 Fact: I was told there was no warranty on the vehicle, I did not decline the warranty. I specifically asked if I could get one and was told no. Fact: after I had to get work done because I was sold a lemon, it caught on fire. Fact: a dealership as "reputable" as this should at least give me something for the troubles they caused me. Fact: Paul garavel will do anything for an extra dollar, even if it means selling a jeep he knows has issues. read more

I had a recent service (which was done properly!), but I had an issue with some of the charges. Dave, the service manager, rectified the problem and I was satisfied. I have had a few service things done to my 14 Grand Cherokee, and the work always seems to have been done professionally and ready when promised. No one likes having to go to the dealer, it is sort of like the dentist! Especially someone like me, who has worked on and knows cars, but does not have the time or tools to work on these newer vehicles. I am always nervous about someone else touching my car. But these guys seem fine. I will comment that they claim to have done "multipoint inspection with report". I received no report, and I knew going in that my tire pressures were low, just had not gotten to it. They did not spot it. Also could have rinsed off the car for a $700+ service. Just would make a customer feel appreciated. So that is the one star off! read more

I had one of the most wonderful experiences at Jeep in Norwalk. I had recently moved to CT and had horrible experiences at the Jeep dealership in NY so I was hesitant to reach out but I am so happy I did. Wally was beyond kind and helpful. They were quick with contacting me and scheduled me on a day I was off from work and had my car fixed quickly. I really appreciated their kindness and level of customer service. read more

I took a while to write this review, and I'm glad I did. I came to Garavel to check out a used CRV they were offering at a great price. I was a little skeptical about buying a Honda from a Jeep dealership, but the car was immaculate. Jorge was straightforward and put zero pressure on us, which made the buying experience very comfortable. When we finally got home from buying the car, we realized there was a mistake on the paperwork, which ended up with us being a bit overcharged. However, we had signed off on it, so we were kicking ourselves and never expecting to see that money again. Amazingly, Sue worked with us to get the issue resolved and we were reimbursed. To me, that speaks volumes of this dealer's integrity. Where most dealers would do anything to scrape a few hundred extra dollars from a sale, Garavel was more concerned with providing a positive customer experience and making things right. In the end, I'm a happy customer, our car has been fantastic, and I would gladly do business with Jorge, Sue, and Garavel again. read more

This Garavel location is great overall, tons of options and always a warm reception and great service.

I'm not typically one for writing reviews and I'm generally a very patient mild mannered person, but this may have been one of the worst experiences that I've had at any sort of business anywhere. I cannot stress enough how much I recommend NOT going to this dealership. From the very start, when I first inquired about a Jeep Wrangler, I was dealing with an absolute airhead of a salesperson. He wasn't much of a help over the phone or email and was super slow to respond. Once we eventually agreed on a price (confirmed over email) at the end of the week, he finally called me and I offered to make the 2.5 hour drive from Boston to Norwalk and buy the car that same day. He told me the finance team wouldn't have time and that I should come early the next day, so I made an appointment for the earliest possible time (9am). The next morning we drove 2.5 hours down to Garavel, arriving for the appointment promptly at 9am, and are greeted by a different salesperson who gives us the keys to the Jeep and lets us take a test drive. All is great with the Jeep and we give the keys back to the salesperson who then walks back inside to get the paperwork started. However, apparently, while out on the test drive, a woman was also booked for an appointment for the same vehicle for the exact same time slot. Upset, she sees the car pull out for the test drive and buys it on the spot. After we return and confirm that we are ready to purchase the car, a different sales rep comes out to break the news to us saying that he felt bad because she drove from an hour away. Even though we had driven from 2.5 hours away and offered to come the afternoon before! This was very frustrating and completely ridiculous and irresponsible that an appointment for the same car was made for the same exact time. And on top of that, having us drive 2.5 hours (each way) and giving the opportunity to test drive the car. Thinking that they were going to do right by asking if we'd like to see another car within our price range, they then bring out a different Wrangler and show it to us and bring us inside only to tell us that it's $5,000 over our budget. I've been to other dealerships and I get that a salesperson's priority is just to make the deal and hit their numbers, but this was by far and away the most scummy experience that I've ever had. Garavel Jeep and its employees were very unprofessional and are an excellent example of how business should not be done. If I could go lower than 1 star, I absolutely would. read more

Terrible sales experience; no follow up once purchased I would not buy another vehicle from Garavel. The sales experience was terrible. I wasn't told about features/options that were available. I had a problem with the radio less than 12 hours after driving the vehicle off the lot. I then discovered that my Sirius Guardian had already been activated with another person's information. I called. I e-mailed.I left voicemails. No response. read more

Jeep's are unreliable, and the service at this location is so understaffed, they couldn't even look at my car for 8 days. Parts took another 5 days to arrive. This is one of several similar experiences I've had at this service location, and I'm so fed up, they literally turned a Jeep fanboy into a lifetime Jeep hater. I will never buy another Jeep and 90% of it is because this service location cannot support their client base. read more

Stay away from this dealer. They lack customer service and will not respect you or your time. Stay away from Andy Moor and PJ Uva. They told me to drive 2 hours for an appointment and Andy was not there and the car was pre ordered for another customer. They have zero customer service skills and incompetent. Cars don't have window stickers which is illegal. This is the definition of a shady dealership stay away. read more

The first time we went there wasn't very pleasant experience. We worked with joe and he didn't seem at all interested to help us find what we were looking for and didn't make us feel comfortable so I left. Being that I really wanted a Jeep, my boyfriend went back the follow week and worked with a new guy name RAMI, he turned the whole experience around and definitely made getting my Jeep that much worth it. He has great energy and attitude and didn't judge us and our crazy schedules. Really a good addition to Garavel. I'll definitely be buying my next car with Rami and I only gave it 4 stars because of him and the car. read more

I came down to look at a Nissan Murano. I was told my credit wouldn't be checked until I decided if I wanted the car. As we were inspecting the car, we found a leak in the roof. Inside was very wet. When we told the associate, he went to see if they would fix it. Manager came out and said no. The car is sold as is. Didn't want to hear anything. They checked my credit and was refused credit and won't fix leak. Screw them. Never go there again. read more

THE SOLD US A LEMON. We called and emailed the owner himself multiple times. He told us he was going to take care of us. Only had the Jeep for a month and a half and already had to put 6,000 into it.

DO NOT BUY FROM THEM. read more
