Update: After bringing the issue to Robbie Yates, the issue has been resolved. Robbie was…read moreaccountable, candid, and resolute in his actions. Robbie was true to his word and communicative as he worked to resolve the issue. I am very grateful for Robbie's help in resolving the issue. Buyer BEWARE. After purchasing a vehicle from this dealership, it lost all power and required being towed to the dealership within 2.5 months of purchasing it. Upon having the vehicle towed, the service department did not confirm receipt of the vehicle and was unreachable by phone. After weeks of having the vehicle, the service department provided minimal communication. After following up numerous times we were provided multiple reports of conflicting information of what was wrong with the vehicle. When we asked to speak with management, management was "in a meeting" and did not return our call. After following up again, we were told by a service representative to come to the dealership to have a meeting with service and sales to discuss trading the car in or the dealership buying the vehicle back. Upon arriving to the meeting, management was unaware of the meeting we were asked there for. The service manager shared incorrect information about what had been done to diagnose the problem and was corrected by the service representative, and at multiple points conflicted information that had been previously been shared. Ultimately, the service manager was unable to give a plan for diagnosis or timeline for repair. We then met with the Vice President of Operations after asking to return the vehicle. The Vice President asked to "earn our trust back" and promised to "communicate with us every step of the way," and call us within two days with a solution or update. No communication has been received - silence. The vehicle has been in the shop for over a month at this point. This does not appear to be a one off situation with this dealership. If you look through the reviews, you will find a review from Qubanae Hudson, that is disturbingly similar to my experience. Do not ignore the concerning reviews of this establishment. Please save yourself the headache and go elsewhere.

I had a great experience buying from Marine Chevrolet in March '25. I was a first time car buyer…read moreand looked all around the US for the right price for a 2020 Honda Accord Hybrid. I worked with Gabby and Kevin. Gabby was very helpful and transparent with pricing and photos of the car. I felt like they were very honest and clear and weren't trying to screw me over like most other dealerships. Once we agreed on a price, they put it on hold for me (3-5 days I think) on the contingent that I sent them a copy of my flight receipt as I was buying from out of state. Flew into Raleigh and they sent someone from the dealership to come pick us up, which was a 2 hour drive. Driver was awesome and told us some cool stories from his deployment in the military overseas during his career. Upon getting to the dealership, everyone was super excited for me to get there and knew me by first name. Car was ready and we signed and paid all cash up front and the process took not even 15 minutes. I had spent months looking for the right deal and happy it worked out with Marine Chevy. I would definitely work again with Gabby, Kevin and Stacie!

Absolute disaster, bought a brand new Silverado from them a couple months ago. It's my first "new"…read morepurchase. Sold my older vehicle due to chronic AC issues and reliability. I bought a brand new 2026 mid trim level package. The salesmen and most the immediate staff were actually terrific. But fast forward a couple days I notice quality defects in the structure of the cabin. No big deal, they said they'd cover it. Still holding a great attitude. Takes them weeks to get me in and when they do service the truck the defect remained. I had to rebook an appointment and wait. During the wait, the AC went out a week after driving it home. Still the staff worked with me and I harnessed my frustration but upon fixing the AC they gave me back the truck with tears in the headliner and additional structural defects. Okay fast forward a couple weeks of fixes and common administrative headaches, I got a check engine light, glitches in my display, and the microphone went out for calls and OnStar. I've visited the dealer 10+ times within a month. It's been an awful experience and waste of time. To wrap this up, I took these issues to upper management at the dealer and GM to discuss potential lemon law criteria, or options to get any sort of value back. Given this is all covered under warranty with new vehicles the loss of faith in Chevy, embarrassment and regret of purchasing from this dealer remained. After voicing my concerns managment made arrangements and benefits to compensate for the ridiculous experience. Initially both managers attempted to dilute and redirect my concerns and offer the bare minimum. Upon coming to a gentleman's agreement of an extended warranty they made false promises and dropped all agreed fixes weeks later and resulted in offering rewards points like some coffee shop. All the while giving retaliative condescending attitudes like I owe them something. I get a dealer doesn't really take responsibility for how a truck comes off the delivery but man, avoid top leadership here. Just go to Willmington and save the games. Or Toyota.

If you get one of the scratcher flyers in the mail and are wondering if it is a scam- IT IS! I…read morethink it's very pathetic to send out flyers claiming someone has won a $2500 cash prize in a community with many low income households and people who are living paycheck to paycheck and giving them false hope of getting cash they could desperately need, just for them to get nothing. I live in one of the cheaper apartment complexes in the area so I find it pretty calculated and intentional that they would send them there. I would never buy a vehicle here, because if they are willing to do something like that, they obviously do not care about their community and there's no telling what they would be willing to do just to make a sale. I understand it is a sales tactic, but in this economy, it is not the correct one. Do better.

Can't blame them for the car not working but I will blame them for selling me a shitty car.

My first time coming to C-Side Auto. Had a check engine light with a P0456 Code. I tried to fix…read moreit once before but no luck. Decided to take to a mechanic and chose C-Side based on high customer reviews. They were pretty busy when I arrived and I did not have an appointment, so I waited for a bit while they diagnosed my issue. During that wait here is what I observed: 1. I watched a young lady come into the shop explaining she thought she needed to replace all four of her tires. Mechanic went outside and examined her car and came back and told her that her rear tires were in great shape but front tires were badly worn. He explained why there was a difference in wear between front and rear tires (not rotating them and her car was FWD). Then showed her options that made sense for her situation. He could have easily sold her four new tires costing her hundreds more. 2. I observed a customer who had already dripped his jeep off at C-Side and had an initial repair estimate of over $1700, come in and be told that once they tore down his clutch (or maybe his transmission) they were able to determine they did not need to replace some of the parts they thought they needed to. Instead of 1700+ dollars he paid a little over 600. 3. i watched how the manager communicated with his mechanics, this man seemed to have situational awareness on every pending job in the shop and was extremely efficient at managing their time and resources. I was really impressed at his active engagement. There is a good chemistry on that team. 4. For my own vehicle, they isolated the issue (cracked hose) and had it repaired pretty quick. They smoke tested a second time just to be sure. From start to finish, me dropping off on a busy day with no appointment, was about 4 hours. A nice little touch, when I was driving over there, my tire pressure sensor came on. When I left I noticed they had put air in my tires. I never mentioned or asked them to do this, they just did. Little things like that matter. All in all, these folks are honest, thorough, and efficient. You really don't see this kind of auto repair service at many places, especially around here. They earned my trust and my future business.

My experience with the service department was extremely frustrating. While my vehicle was in the shop, for the warranty recall, I was informed I needed a new battery and a purge valve replacement, and provided with a price. I opted to replace the battery and advised Ally I would call back in a few short weeks to schedule the purge valve. A few weeks later I made the appt for the purge valve and Ally sent a text with the cost which was 60% higher than what I was quoted. I was advised if I approved the work while the vehicle was in the shop for the warranty repair I would not have been charged the additional labor. This was never explained to me, had I known this I would have likely had the repair done that day. Instead I was put in a position where I was penalized due to lack of transparency. To make matters worse, after questioning the price increase and asking for clarification, I received no response, I then sent a follow-up email to Ally and the service manager, Steve Flores, to which I did not receive a response from either. The lack of communication, and follow-up has been just as disappointing as the pricing inconsistency.

Working with OCM, and with Gary, was great. The price was fair, the trade in for my old vehicle was more than fair. I would highly recommend them. That said, when you make your purchase, pay cash or arrange your own financing. I was under the impression OCM had in-house financing; they do not. The financing goes through a sleazy, sketchy, dishonest outfit called Lendmark Finance. This is a cheap, storefront "payday loan" company. These people lied to me left and right. The application was done on a "docu-sign" program where you click to sign. I was told I would get hard copies, but those only came by email later. On one screen, the woman said, "This is so you can pay online." When I looked at the hard copies later, I realized what I had "signed" for was some worthless Autoplus service that cost $600! And somewhere along the way, I evidently "signed" for Involuntary Unemployment Insurance. I would definitely not have knowingly purchased this because most of my income is from retirement, not current employment. Page after page, lie after lie! If, for whatever reason, you must deal with Lendmark, DO NOT USE THE DOCU-SIGN PROCESS!! Insist on paper copies, sign only the paper copies, and read EVERY SINGLE WORD of what you are signing! As I said, I loved working with OCM. But, unfortunately, we are often known by the company we keep. And Onslow County Motors, in Lendmark Finance, you are running with some very, very sleazy company.
