    Silicon used to cover up holes
    Nathan C.

    I just want to start off by saying I have been buying cars from dealerships for over 25+ years and I had the worse buying experience at Bill Hood Chevy in Covington, LA. First I got stuck with a new salesman named Grant who didn't know anything about the used car I was looking to buy for my son. He brought the car from the back, I noticed the windshield was cracked in several places and asked if they were going to replace it and he said no because the car is priced to sell as is. I have never heard a dealership not replacing a windshield before selling it to the public. Anyways, I got in the car after I looked at it and proceeded to test drive it. Grant tells me he personally test drove the car and it was in excellent working order with no issues and it was fully inspected by the service department but then I noticed when I stepped on the brakes it made a rattling noise and I alerted him about it. He acknowledged that it was making a rattling noise and acted surprised. We get back to the dealership and we started doing the paperwork on it and he says good news..we are going to fix the windshield but the car hasn't been through our Service department for inspection..?? I ended up buying the car because my son need a "dependable" car and the used car market at this time was thin because of the results of the pandemic. I left the car there so that it could go through inspection and get the windshield fixed along with the brake tag. Well the next day comes and Grant tells me the car is ready to be picked up but the car wasn't ready because the windshield was still not replaced and the guy that does the replacement won't be there till Saturday. Saturday morning comes and I drop off the car at 8:30 am and I gave the keys to Grant and reminded him that they need to make sure they put the brake tag on the new windshield and he said they would do it. As the day went on I didn't get any status updates and it was 5pm already and they closed at 6pm so I texted Grant to see if the car was ready. He told me he would check and get back to me but he never did. My wife had to call up to the dealership to check the status and they told her it was ready. She drops me off at the front at around 5:45pm and I went inside to get the keys. They page Grant on the intercom and he comes out with the key and tells me the car should be parked somewhere on the side of the building and tells me to hit the panic button on the key to find it instead of going to get it and parking it in the front for me. I walked the parking lot until I find it and I noticed that they still didn't put the new brake tag on the windshield. I go back inside and I see Grant talking to another customer so I waited there until he was done. I was approached by another salesman (Brad Pitt) to see if I needed help I told him I needed a brake tag to be put on my car so I can leave because I had things to do. Grant comes and tells Brad the sticker is in the file on his desk. Brad just stood there with a confused look on his face and I tell him to hurry up and tells me that he didn't know anything about it and I didn't have to be an "idiot". I got upset and we exchanged words. UPDATE: A lil less than a year after my purchase the engine light starts to blink and the car starts to run poorly. Take it to a local repair shop and they tell me it needs a tune up: spark plugs, head gasket, timing belt, bad coil, etc.What kind of inspection did they do at Bill Hood? Oh and they also found silicon around holes in the front & rear engine valve covers..see pictures. DO NOT BUY OR TAKE YOUR VEHICLE FOR SERVICE @ BILL HOOD CHEVY IN COVINGTON!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!

    I advise anyone who uses Bill Hood Chevrolet to stay as far away from their service department as possible, and this is why! I brought my truck in for a headliner leak and the windshield had to be removed. Mark made sure to let me know in all of his years working there they have never broken any, but of course after changing the headliner they broke my windshield. After going back in forth, they did me the "favor" of only charging me for half (originally wanted me to pay for whole thing) of the glass they broke being there not responsible when that happens. Then they had to pull the new headliner out and the window for a 2nd time! Finally when I got my truck back, I dropped off the loaner car & Mark checked for damage and said I was good to go. I made him aware that I was not happy with the new windshield that was put in my truck because the seal at the top was poorly done. The following morning, I noticed damage to my dashboard and the bottom of the brand new windshield had a crack in it. I immediately called Hood and made them aware of what I found. They proceeded to tell me that I must have put a crack in the new glass and scratched my own dash! Then they accuse me of damaging their loaner car, saying the rear of the car was damaged and I had curb rashed all the wheels, when it was fine when I dropped it off. Mark was extremely unprofessional when he called me, which seems to be common practice there. I explained to him that these accusations were false and also really conveniently timed after the botch job that was done to my truck! Some people may have just let it go, but this is a clear case of how to NOT run a business, and honestly it's like they were trying to intimidate me into paying for damages I didn't do let's accuse our customers of damaging things in hope they won't come back for us to finish the job we did! . Mark and the service team have belittled me and my concerns every step of the way. I have brought my truck and wife's SUV over 10 times for warranty work and had countless loaner cars, but now that they do something wrong they want to play games and do anything they can to inconvenience me. As it stands, they have yet to make things right. The only thing I did wrong was bring my truck to BILL HOOD CHEVROLET!

    This is what the Chevrolet Corporation was saying would happen...but it's not going to be through Hood Chevrolet!

He is a perfect ambassador for any dealership. He was the major reason we worked with this dealer for a purchase of our first Hyundai and we received a very attractive offer and proposal from him. Between our decision and final delivery, Michael had done everything to exceed our expectations, including having the vehicle delivered to our house on July 4, 2025 with a full one hour review of all of its features and handle all documents digitally (welcome to the 21st century) The vehicle had just the colors and features that we requested and more; all within finance parameters offered by Hyundai Finance that matched our budget targets.. I would highly recommend Eddie Tourelle Hyundai and particularly Michael Swan to anyone who asks about Hyundai dealers near New Orleans. In addition, Josh Ansardi in Finance, who patiently and professionally answered my numerous questions late into the evening, contributed to make the purchase and delivery experience as flawless as can be. In 50 years of my car buying and leasing track record, Michael Swan and Josh Ansardi facilitated a very low stress experience to reach an outstanding car buying outcome , for which we are grateful

I took the vehicle in for an oil change at 45k miles.

This repair would have cost the dealership less than 200 dollars. Now they will not ever get a dollar from me. I will tow it to Slidell or across the lake before it goes back to them

That's their excuse for doing nothing. Meanwhile, they had no problem happily charging me $80 for an oil change, while ignoring the actual problems I brought my car in for. What makes this even worse is that I wanted these issues fixed before my warranty expires and now, because I have no choice but to drive the car daily, it will likely be out of warranty by the time I can take it to another dealership that actually does their job. This service department was dismissive, deceptive, and clearly more interested in collecting money than standing by their customers. I will NEVER bring my vehicle here again, and I will make sure everyone I know avoids this dealership too.

    I purchased a vehicle here and elected to include several optional products. Within 30 days, I…read moredecided to cancel those products and submitted the required cancellation forms to the finance department. After receiving no response to follow-up emails, I returned to the dealership in person. I was given copies of the signed cancellation forms and told they had been sent to accounting. However, after contacting the administrator, I was informed that the cancellations have still not been submitted. I am concerned about the lack of follow-through and communication. I am simply asking that the dealership process the cancellations that were already completed and agreed to. I would appreciate prompt resolution and confirmation that this has been submitted. Edit~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ You can see below where Todd, working on behalf of the dealership, stated that the issue had been resolved. That reply was posted roughly four weeks after my original review. However, the matter was not resolved at that time because I had not yet received the refund. The dealership cancellation form states that processing would take 4-6 weeks. After 8 weeks, I had still not received a refund, and my lender had no record of any funds being applied to my loan. As a result, I sent a formal demand letter. The dealership later informed me that the check had not been sent. According to the documents and tracking information I received, the check was dated approximately one week before it was mailed and was mailed shortly after my demand letter was sent. For anyone considering optional products, make sure you understand the cancellation process and keep copies of all paperwork. If you cancel products, document your communications and follow up regularly. Also, make sure you receive an itemized breakdown of your purchase. I did not receive one at delivery and had to request it afterward. In addition, when I picked up my license plate, I did not receive the registration window sticker and will be obtaining a replacement through the OMV. At the time of this update, more than nine weeks had passed since the cancellation request and the refund still had not been applied to my account. Based on my experience, I was disappointed with the handling of the cancellation process and the communication surrounding it.

    BEWARE - SCAM ALERT: This dealership should be absolutely ashamed of how they operate -- or maybe…read morethey should just print "we do shady things" on their business cards and save everyone some time. I came in as a single mom, ready to pay full asking price -- which, by the way, was already over Kelley Blue Book -- and somehow they still found a way to squeeze out more. Enter the $1,300 AutoGuard mystery fee! Never agreed to it, never asked for it, but there it was, baked into the paperwork like it was grandma's secret casserole. Only after I committed did they suddenly inform me it was "non-negotiable." Cute. Salesman Derek, and managers Tom and Paul, pitched me a story that the brakes, tires, and windshield would be fixed before the sale. Fast-forward to post-deposit: plot twist -- "Actually, we'll do that after you pay in full... and you won't get the car till the end of the week." Oh. So now we're playing Dealership Theater? As a cherry on top, I politely warned the next poor soul in the showroom about the scam. The finance manager didn't like that. He marched out and yelled at me in the parking lot for "being disrespectful to their customer." Sir, warning someone about your own shady practices isn't disrespectful -- it's a public service. This place doesn't run on transparency -- it runs on pressure, misdirection, and the hope you'll be too exhausted to fight back. I came expecting a car sale. I left with a PhD in dealership manipulation. At the end of the day, I bought the car -- not because they earned it, but because I'm a struggling mom who needed to get the hell out of there. And guess what? I ran into that customer at the gas and come to find out, they apparently told the next customer that exact same thing -- that I was "going through a bad divorce" Classy. Also, I was told the $1,300 AutoGuard fee was "mandatory and on every car." But when I chatted with that same customer? He said they told him it was totally negotiable. So... which is it? Mandatory for moms, optional for everyone else?? WTF. Disgraceful. And embarrassingly on-brand for 2025.
