Maher Collision, a subsidiary of Maher Chevrolet, is an accredited GEICO body shop that was recommended to me by my GEICO insurance adjuster. I popped in and talked to Lisa. With great fortitude and perseverance she got through to a live person at GEICO (Something I've been unable to accomplish) and got the phone number and email of my claims adjuster. We will see how this all plays out since this Saga began. A piece of rebar sticking out of a parking block almost tore my bumper off. I went to my go to local body shop to have it repaired and everything seemed fine... Except my dashboard warning signs telling me my front bumper sensors were off-line. I went to the Toyota dealership to have that taken care of, but in the process the new bumper itself became loose, which meant starting the whole process over, since the dealership told me that the bumper could not be properly affixed because it did not fit right. WTF?!? It fit right before bringing it to the dealership... back to square one. Fortunately my GEICO adjuster has seen similar things in the past and told me: SHIT HAPPENS I'll update this review as I go through the process for the second time. read more

Maher Chevrolet - Auto Repair Near Me - St. Petersburg, Florida

Absolutely terrible service experience. $250 oil change that took 3 hours. Plus more time to check out. The service rep was completely unapologetic, I made a 7:30am appointment with assurances that early morning would get me out quick before they got busy and behind schedule. This didn't work. After 2+ hours the sales manager said he would go find out what was happening. He never followed up to let me know the status. I've never bought a car from these guys and after these experiences were serviced there's not a chance in the world I would buy a car from them. And I'll never be back here for service again.. read more

From the moment I entered the dealership I felt as if I were family. My salesman, Ado, was courteous and well informed on all of my vehicle questions. I have never felt more confident in my car buying experience. Once we got down to brass tax the gang at Maher continued to exceed even the highest expectations with up front pricing, honesty, kindness, and of course smokin hot deals. We were also very starstruck when they brought out the face of the back office, Shea, to explain in very easy to understand terms how we could not only feel good about our purchase today but also for the next 10-15 years by way of overly competitive financing and air tight extended warranty safety. I was so impressed I almost bought two vehicles. Instead I told all my friends that if they are in the market for a high quality new or used vehicle then they need to slide on down to Maher Chevrolet. read more

Maher Chevrolet is absolutely shameless. I was blatantly lied to by salesperson Steve McLeod about the valuation price of a 2004 Saturn Vue. He tried to push an $8,500 price from Carfax that's a total fabrication and then refused to show me any proof. Standard market value doesn't even come close. ($1900-$3600). Furthermore, they completely refused to negotiate, even with a cash offer on a car that's 22 years old and no longer a manufactured brand. It's a total rip off and they treat customers like dirt. Avoid Maher Chevrolet at all costs! read more

Avoid Chevrolet - Ongoing Issues, Poor Service, and Zero Accountability Owner of a 2021 Chevrolet Trailblazer here - purchased from AutoNation Chevrolet Clearwater. From day one, the vehicle had issues: turbo problems (which ended up being a recall), loss of engine power, "Shift to Park" defect (which became a Class Action Lawsuit), and a transmission that clunks into gear. I brought the vehicle to Chevrolet and other shops multiple times over the years for the issues mentioned above, but I was always told the transmission was functioning properly. Fast forward to this year - the vehicle began bucking and revving high before slamming into gear, and ultimately stalled and shut off while driving. A SERIOUS safety hazard - not only for myself, but for others drivers as well. The vehicle was brought to Maher Chevrolet by a shop who expressed serious concerns with the vehicle. Maher was confident to address the issue at a "cost accommodation" of $1,200. After about six weeks of unanswered calls that were responded to via text and having to repeatedly ask for updates instead of receiving them proactively, I messaged a service professional to address the lack of communication and the overall silence. However, within one of the updates I was informed they had to order another part because the original fix did not solve the problem. Eventually, my service advisor told me that my car is now in TOTAL TRANSMISSION FAILURE - and my new "cost accommodation" will be $5,000. I escalated to Corporate Customer Care. After 5 days, they finally responded, asked me to re-explain the entire situation (despite already having a case open), and told me nothing further could be done since the dealership had already offered an "accommodation." The rep had the nerve to call this "fair" and this was the best they could do because my warranties had lapsed - but I had reported these same issues on multiple occasions before the warranty expired. That fact was completely ignored. Fair is NOT the word I would use to describe my past and current experiences with Chevrolet. I was also told I should essentially "consider myself lucky" since I had previously gone to independent shops. That statement alone shows how little accountability GM takes for the ongoing failures of their vehicles. Not only are you simply a dollar sign to them but there are COUNTLESS class action law suits against GM. As of today, Maher still has my car. I have been juggling rentals (at my own expense), borrowing cars, and driving 40+ miles daily for my job. At one point, I requested a Courtesy Vehicle and never received a response nor was I offered this solution in the meantime by any employee at Maher. Bottom line: Stay FAR away from Chevrolet. Between the unresolved mechanical failures, poor communication, and complete lack of support from Corporate, it's clear customers are just numbers. GM has multiple class action lawsuits for a reason - and sadly, I now know why firsthand. read more

A few weeks ago I took my Chevy Tahoe to Maher Chevrolet for an oil change and tire rotation. Upon completion the service advisor told me the tech said i needed to replace my front brake pads to which i laughed and said, Impossible. I had literally changed them myself approximately 3 months prior. i showed him the pictures on my phone. He asked if I had a minute then jumped in my vehicle, drove it back into the service bay to get the opinion of a different service tech. That tech said no way those pads are brand new. Fast forward to Friday 8/8/25. After speaking with the service manager about potential fraud or attempting to defraud me the manager claimed he was told someone had tampered with the tech's laptop to add another job when he was away for whatever reason. Yeah right I don't buy it and I know the manager doesn't either which is why he offered me a free oil change for this so called mistake. I didn't need one for my vehicle, but my significant other did as she Ubers from time to time. So I get the same service advisor as before. The vehicle this time is a 2024 Chevy Trax. Everything checks out, no recalls, no codes, etc... He says I see you have an oil change on us did we screw up or something. I said nah. He replied oh I'm just being nosey is all. About 3o min later the advisor calls me on my cell and says I just wanted let you know the tech found a nail in the right rear tire which is the passenger side and it's non repairable you'll need a new tire. I can't say for sure if they put it there as you're liable to roll over a nail at any given time on the streets, but come on. Why were you looking at these brand new tires as your only task was an oil change ? You just so happened to find a nail on the side the driver would most likely not see it and she had just cleaned her car earlier in the week, but it can't be fixed. A new tire with mount and balance was $250. So since the oil change was free I'm thinking they were trying to get some money out of me one way or the other. I think some people in this place is running a racket to rack up big commissions. My girlfriend told me how the advisors at Subaru of Sarasota used to stiff the snowbirds for thousands of dollars for work they didn't really need. They would just pull out a checkbook and pen or a credit card. This seems shady to me it just so happened there was a nail in a spot where the tire could not be repaired with a patch for $25 or $30 dollars it had to be replaced. I think the state should send a few cars in there in an undercover capacity to see if consumers are being defrauded. read more

This review is specifically for Matt Berry in sales at Maher Chevrolet. He is amazing and has sold/leased me numerous cars over the years. Any questions I have he always calls me back, vehicle acting up he gives me advise, key fob acting funny he gets it working, he calls me every year to say Happy Birthday. If you are looking for a vehicle talk to Matt, you win't regret it! read more

This dealership let me go through the buying process, hand me keys, signed paperwork & new tag, ran down my credit score with the 1k inquiries just to take the car back 3 wks later. Due to them holding my paperwork the bank needed to finance me. So the bank took the application back & now my credit score is way low NO BANK will look at me now . DO NOT THINK YOUR GETTING ANY DEALS THERE.... They may just want the car back after they run your credit scores down. read more

They don't even deserve one star, they deserve negative Stars. The salesman Maher sold me a car that should have never been sold and he lied about why the people traded it in. All he talked about was the $95,000 electric truck. Bought his wife. I asked questions about the electric vehicle and he never answered any of them. He never showed me or helped me set up. OnStar, never gave me the card for the charging of the vehicle at the dealership and the minute he made the sale. Sale. Was out the door. I was told I'd get a $5,000 check and I never received that. They ran my credit when they said they would not run my credit again. They are dishonest, crooks, thieves and don't have a clue what they are doing. Doing. Stay clear of Maher Chevrolet in St. Florida. They are the biggest rip-offs and don't care about the customer. My next review will have more names in it. read more

I recently purchased a 2025 Chevy Tahoe from Maher Chevrolet in St Petersburg. The transaction was great, from Frank, our salesperson to financing. I've had the car less than a month and purchased every add-on warranty available. But, buyer BEWARE! Their post-purchase service is horrible! The shark fin antenna cover has fallen off the car and they immediately denied culpability. They will not cover the replacement through warranty (to the tune of $615)! This is unheard of and highly disappointing service from Frank and the service team. DO NOT bring your car here! read more

Everything to do with the service sucked! Bought a used car and got the 90 day warranty and they had it in service three times mostly sitting in the yard! So after almost two months of going back and forth every time I would take it to another mechanic and things were not fixed that they said they did! Ended up with it sitting in there when the warranty expired and now I still have problems and they're telling me sorry you have no warranty now! Do NOT buy from here unless you want to have problems like this! read more

Would never buy any car here again, as soon as the car is sold, they stop any service they promised, impossible to get a hold of anyone, and once i do, they said someone would call back, nobody ever call me back but bunch of trash ads email every week. It is not the 1st time, this is the 3rd time. The 1st time i had problem with the charger right after I purchased, 2nd time I had problem with charging station, and 3rd time this time I had a flat tire, all i need all 3 times was the direction of the service I bought with them. My review do not reflect the car I bought, the EV bolt is great but the dealer customer service sucks and they will never improve this unless you telling them you're buying a car. read more

warning!!!! do not use this dealership. I brought my vehicle in for a out they said.( that I needed a new transmission.) so I paid for the transmission because I needed to drive the vehicle across the after picking it up and supposedly they checked everything out to make sure that everything was correct and working properly 500 miles down the road the transmission went out which seized my drive shaft to the transmission, and I had it to have it towed to another dealership in a different state five weeks later. I had to drive back from a different state to pick the vehicle up. I contacted this dealership and they said that they were not responsible for the defective part so this ended up costing me over $10,000 to have this transmission fixed, and I had to pay out-of-pocket other parts that were damaged due to their workmanship . They did not help me with anything. read more

I bought a new 2024 Chevy Malibu R/S from Auto Nation Chevrolet on Oct 2nd 2024 but when I needed service I took it to Maher Chevy due to the fact their service dept is only minutes away from my home on March 11, 2025. The check engine light came on while I was taking my wife to the Drs. The vehicle had only 1,905 miles on it. To make a long story short, Marhers stated that I would have a 2-3 day wait before it could even be looked at, I left the vehicle even though I felt that that was an unduly long period of time. Here it has been in the shop for going on nine days and still not ready to be released. They have even stated that it is a replacement of basically a simple O2 sensor! Many calls have been made to the service dept and my advisor (Alex Cullinan) but the response is alway, "still with the tech and he's working on it.". I am at my wit's end and ready fie a major complaint with management. My advice to anyone thinking of taking their vehicle to Marher Chevy for service, "DON'T DO IT! THEY WILL KEEP YOUR CAR FOREVER"! I will never return there for service again ever! I should have gone to Auto Nation Chevy for the repair! Next time I will! read more

My experience started off well enough with a test drive, but very quickly devolved to the point I had to leave as I was so flustered and frustrated. The salesman toted about how they were a no nonsense, no pressure dealership. Great. That was far from my experience with him after the test drive. I told him I could NOT sign anything that day, as I had simply taken a 5 minute test drive and needed to do some thinking about a very serious decision in purchasing a new vehicle and that I would let him know after the weekend so that I could review the numbers and talk it over with my wife. They wanted $950 a month for 84 months WITH a down payment of $2500! $82,300 for a $49,000 msrp truck! I was flabbergasted. I have an 800+ credit score, and was pre approved for $685 a month through my bank. That's more than a $20,000 difference. I didn't tell him that at the time as I wanted to see the numbers they could provide, which were awful. He told me that was "the best they could do" so I tried to end our meeting then and there. Then he runs off to the finance department to "work some magic" and comes back with an offer for $875 a month. Again this was shocking as you're now telling me you're supposedly so willing to just knock $8000 off the total cost of the loan - how much is the markup that you can knock that much off? It was still really high. I told him I still wasn't interested at that number either. In the 15 or 20 minutes this all took he asked me no less than 5 times if I was sure couldn't sign papers, that my wife would love the truck, etc. trying to schmooze me into making a horrible decision. Over and over I said no. This was FAR from no pressure. The worst part was this truck wasn't even what I had specified I wanted, I told him I would rather wait for the right truck and over and over he insisted I just take the one they have because it was close enough. Finally he begrudgingly told me I could order the correct truck and priced it out. I knew I had a pre approval so I told him I wanted it, to order it and I would leave whatever deposit was necessary, and I was going to go home and fill out the final paperwork for it and come back to make it easier for both of us. He didn't want to hear that, so he again wanted to go to the finance department since dealerships get a kick back when financing through themselves even with the same bank. I'm fine with that as long as the numbers aren't egregious, and for a 3rd and final time they were still outlandish. I had had enough and told him I needed to get back to work and thanked him for his time, but the numbers weren't making sense and I would try again at a later date. When I tried to leave he asked me not to so he could go get his boss. I didn't want to talk in circles so I left, and he followed me out of the building and again asked me to wait to wait to talk to his boss. This felt very pressured as I had had enough of being barraged with outlandish numbers and relentlessly asked to sign papers when I had made it clear from the beginning even if the numbers were 0% interest I was not signing anything today, so I left. Before I could make it to the stop light he was calling me telling me I "didn't understand financing" and when I was ready to make a deal to come back. This felt very childish as I both do understand financing - that's the reason I DIDN'T sign the agreement for almost $30,000 in interest on a 50k truck - and didn't feel like a no nonsense and no pressure dealership at all. A few minutes later I got another call from the head of the finance department telling me they could come down even more. This was even more infuriating as now I've had 2 calls in 10 minutes from a "no pressure" team, AND they were willing to come down more!? Why would you not just give me the accurate price so you could make your money and sale? Why the games? They had my credit score right away and clearly ran me for a much worse one for the numbers to come back so horrible. It threw me off so much that I went to a different dealership a couple hours away. Going to this different dealership was so polarizing because they told me EXACTLY what the price and monthly payment would be over email, and when I walked in they played no games. They had papers ready with the correct numbers, I signed and was out of there in a couple hours with the truck I wanted. I don't understand why every dealership doesn't operate that way. Maher is clearly trying to take advantage of people who don't have enough confidence or experience buying vehicles to see past the facade of smiling faces trying to sell them debt they don't deserve. I can't NOT recommend this place enough. read more

You give the car business a bad name. TOTALLY wasted our time. Promised us $34,500 for our truck, we leave it with you and you call us and say you can do thousands less. Not cool especially since you knew the deal. We were waiting on the title and pay off. read more

These people don't want your business, they just want your money. They're rude and don't know how to talk to customers. They want your money and every time you go there they want to up charge you. GMC AND TOYOTA IS THE BEST. These people need to be trained on informed concern. These people need to be trained on how to talk to people. Do not waste your time, go places where your dollars matter.

SO GLAD i went so.ewhere else. Maher tried to charge me 180$ to troubleshoot an issue and said it was the crank position sensor which i knew wasnt correct. Took it to a superior shop and they quickly diagnosed it as a high pressure fuel pump failure. How you can be so incompetent amd call yourself "certified". Certified clown show perhaps. Theyve also caused damage to my truck every single time ive brought it. Paint damage, exhauset tip crushed, dented quarter panel. Supreme trash. read more

They did it again! This was vehicle number 7 for our family from Maher. What can I say? I love my upgrades. I only wish I could have leased this one but I had too much negative equity in my Camaro and I needed a back seat and opted for my first EV vehicle because touching gas pumps during COVID?! No thank you. Also I'm basically a super educated science believing hippie so the Chevy Bolt EV must made sense for me. They lowered my payment and got me a great interest rate! I was in and out in about 2.5 hours from test drive to driving away. No haggling. No craziness. My only qualm was that I didn't have a full charge on my car when I left, but meh. It's charging right now and I'll have a full charge by the time I go out and about. If you are questioning your credit worthiness just go there. They are a volume dealer and have excellent relationships with lenders and can seriously do what other dealerships cannot or will not do to make your deal work. Go see Patrick and tell him that Amy sent you. Also shout out to Rachel the social media person for our bromance! I'll be back soon for #8 and #9. The teenagers think they need to drive read more

If I could give less than one star I would. Service department told me I needed a new transmission on my 2015 equinox at a cost of over 9k. I was also charged more than 200 dollars for that diagnosis. I took the vehicle elsewhere (a different Chevy dealer) and they fixed the problem for 1/10 of what Maher said I needed. They replaced the TCM. So I'm out the diagnostic fee but I've been driving without any problems for two months now. Don't trust this place. I don't think they even really looked at the vehicle. I think they simply didn't want to work on it or they are just that incompetent. A quick couple of hundred bucks for a completely wrong diagnosis. read more

We decided to bite the bullet and get a new car while in Florida. Cannot gush enough about the experience with Maher Chevrolet.

The financing was great as well and the whole experience was positive. Highly recommend going here for any Chevy automobile. read more

I told Mike that i usually service my car at Crown where they even do complimentary car wash ( and my car needs it). It 's not the caae on Maher. But when i came to pick my car it was shining! They did everything and even run car through car wash! Car running and looking great! Thank you all! Mike, next time offer customer a chair , please. Don't make me do it myself. read more

I'm a disabled veteran of the United States airforce, I urge any active or prior military members to stay clear of doing business with this establishment. I bought a used Subaru Forester March 23 2020 during the pandemic because I was currently homeless and needed a spacious vehicle that I could stay in comfortably as I had just moved to Florida earlier that month in search of a job. Not even two weeks after this vehicle that I was told the only thing wrong with it is that the clutch has been replaced (by mark in used car sales) the engine light comes on. Worried, I go there and he told me that it was probably just something dumb. "Subaru's last forever" after telling me there is nothing they can do because I signed an as is policy after being led to believe the vehicle was in good condition. I've put less than 8 thousand miles on it and have had it for less than half a year, I'll list everything wrong with it. Monday July 6th the transmission is done... The car is stuck in 5th and will not budge, took it to a shop, the cost is $3,000 for the part alone. The car wouldn't stay in 3rd for more than 30 seconds at any given time. EVAP system is comprised. No traction control due to engine light No cruise control due to engine light. stripping above windshield has come unglued. I cannot put gas in it all at once, it only lets me put about 15 cents at a time before the trigger pops and I have to squeeze again making fueling about a 20 minute process. Hey but at least the A/C works right? I finally got work as a delivery driver to pay the $11,000 + they charged me for the car. I can no longer do that. And called a GM named Pat or something today July 10th ironically the same day as I went off for basic training in 2012. Only to be told. There's nothing they will do for me and things break down "just like your military vehicles". I would very much like to warn any military members that this establishment cares about one thing even in a global pandemic. It's not integrity it's not what they can do to help you. It's the approval of that loan. And once they get paid you're on your own. Please warn others especially E-3 and below so they don't get stuck with 10 grand in debt and a paperweight with good air conditioning. Anyone with questions feel free to contact me. I bought it with just under 100,000 miles. Buyer beware. read more

I cannot brag about this dealership enough. Let me start off by saying that my boyfriend has poor credit. Seriously. We've been working on it, but we did not think we'd even come close to getting approved. We walked into Maher Chevy on Saturday 9/21. We spoke to Mike O'Roake, who, let me tell you, was absolutely phenomenal. He helped us get into the car that we needed, he worked with our budget and went ABOVE and BEYOND. Seriously. We ended up buying one of the retired loaner cars that they have. This car needed to hit 2000 miles before they could retire it. Mike took it upon himself to "rent" this loaner car and help add some miles onto it, so we could get it sooner rather than later. I walked out of there with a handful of his business cards, I can't wait to give them to everyone I meet that's looking for a new car. He was the best. read more

I needed new wipers while on vacation near there and ordered parts to be picked up. After getting my new wipers I was reluctant as I'm not mechanically inclined and yes even a simple wiper blade replacement can try my patience. So after standing next to my car under the service entrance and contemplating what I should do I heard a friendly voice come ip behind me and it was a female service rep. She asked if I was having any issues with my new parts and if she could help me out in any way. She had the old ones off and my new ones put on in no time even showing me how to do it. I thought she went above and beyond to help me out and it was great! read more
