I wrote one review BE AWARE!!! Scammers and cons. I brought my f-350 in for PM and recalls I left with my truck only operating at 50 mph and a bed full of parts. DO NOT USE THIS PLACE FOR ANYTHING.

I took my 2008 F150 in for a check engine light diagnostic with a P0016 error code. The service rep texted me that they found the issue and it would cost around $400 to fix. I approved the repairs. Later that day, I was told that the repairs were made and that my truck was ready to pick up. I asked for them to confirm that the check engine light was now off and that it would pass inspection.I was then told that yes, the check engine light was off on my 2017 F150. I said 2017? I have a 2008 F150. They then asked what my name was and confirmed that the 2008 F150 had my name on it. They said that they would have get with their technician to see what the status was.A little while later they told me that the repairs on my truck would cost $12,000 and that it had a P0022 error code. I did not approve the repairs and told them I would come pick it up.When I got to the dealership to pick up my truck, they asked me for my phone number to look up my account. My account came up under a different name and truck.They eventually found my truck, but did not provide me with any information regarding the diagnosis or what need to be repaired. So, I basically waisted $170, because I am not able to trust that it was actually my truck that they diagnosed or that their estimate for repairs was accurate.I took my truck to another mechanic and was told that the repairs would be around $4,000 on the high side.I am still looking at other mechanics to see if I get a better price though.

If youre going to purchase a vehicle here PLEASE, PLEASE, do yourself a favor and DO NOT PURCHASE the SERVICE GROUP PROTECTION PLAN nor the COVERT ADVANTAGE. It is a total scam.I paid $2299 (plus interest) for them to tell me it didnt cover the replacement of ONE Road Hazard tire, which is included in the plan, but because the tire is worn out they wont cover it.I am telling you do yourself a favor, save your money! I am mad at myself, I could have changed my all tires twice and still have money left to go on vacation. Very dishonest & frustrating.

DO NOT BUY FROM THIS DEALER. Absolute worst company you can buy a vehicle from. I was ripped off for over 700 dollars. Also the customer relations number they provide as a response to these reviews is a total scam that doesn’t get answered and the mailbox is full.Horrible, horrible company.

Josh and Mr. Jesse Cervantez took extra special care with me and my Honda Ridgeline!! I wasnt fully prepared being a first time car buyer and all but they helped me out step by step and explained everything in detail as I was a little worried about alot of things. But over all I drove outta there with my new baby and had some of the best customer service Ive ever witnessed by these two awesome gentleman!! Hats off to Covert and them boys deserve a raise!!

Jackie Oliver did a great job selling me my truck yesterday. Even though she had multiple customers to take care of, Jackie was attentive and listened to everything my needy self had to say! Very personable and friendly and I truly appreciate the business! The sales manager, finance team and service manager were also over the top friendly. I’ve only bought two new cars at different dealerships before this one, but I can honestly say I look forward to coming back and buying another one when it’s time. Great job guys.

Review №14

One star is too much!!!Horrible. Pretty much a bait and switch just using financing instead of vehicles. We wanted to get as much of the paperwork out of the way before we arrived. Since Covid, many car dealers offer curbside, etc. We filled out the paperwork from home. We sent them photos of drivers license, income, insurance. We get an alert that the credit score was run. Then they told us we were approved for the financing options we wanted. So we drove the 70+ miles to sign and drive home.When we arrived, we took it for a test drive and were extremely happy to be buying this vehicle. HOWEVER... now they say we dont have proof of income, which we already sent and were supposedly approved. They push my son to get someone to co-sign. He refused and then they started dinging the credit AGAIN to attempt to find a bank to give him the loan they already said he had. We told them to stop and left.Four hours wasted. Spare yourself and avoid them.

As a small business owner in the service industry I fully appreciate the chaos and endless challenges that come with the territory. Over the years I’ve learned valuable lessons that push our organization to be better. The greatest lesson is that many problems can be avoided and resolved through frequent and clear communication.Unfortunately the communication by the Covert Ford Service department has been embarrassingly poor during my relationship with them. When the transmission went out in my Ford Transit Connect at 90,000 miles and needed replaced, I reluctantly had them replace it. Fast forward to August 14, 2020and with 198,000 miles the transmission was acting up again, and knowing I received a lifetime warranty on the replaced transmission I took it back to Covert.They have had the vehicle in their possession for over 6 weeks and went I returned to retrieve the vehicle today September 28, 2020 they could not tell me what was wrong with it. When requested to be told, all they could say was ‘we will know more in morning’. When I asked to be compensated with vehicle so I could get to work, they said ‘we will know more in morning’.Have your ever been held hostage? By a company? That is how I feel. Who knows what they have been up to for the last 6 weeks? If you are needing service on your Ford I recommend any and all other Ford dealerships where they actually care enough about customers to provide frequent and clear communication.

Jim Elliot was a very nice, knowledgeable, & patient sales person, & gave detailed answers to all of my questions, ( have alot of questions). Also, they have a large inventory to choose from. I can say other members of Covert sales team also had that Texas hospitality, broke my phone & several other salesmen offered me their desk phone to use & made me feel at home. Im Estatic about my new Mustang! Very smooth ride, engines clean, everythings nice under the hood 👍👌Thanks yall

Service department reception and scheduling is TERRIBLE!!! They force you to make an Appt. then when you arrive they tell you it will be 3-4 days before they can look at your vehicle. Whats the point of the Appt.? On a positive note, theyve always fixed it right the first time.

This was the nicest experience I have had buying a vehicle. Oscar Armenta is my sales rep and he is fantastic. He showed me all the options on the vehicle I was interested in before I had even drove it and then was explaining everything while I was test driving it. He showed me other vehicles I was wanted to look at and took all the time I needed to explain everything to me. Oscar is very concerned and wants to make sure you have everything you need and does not pressure or rush you about anything. I will definitely recommend Oscar and everyone at Covert, the entire group went above and beyond anything I have ever experienced with a car dealership. Its really nice to feel like they want to help you and are not there just to see how fast they can make a sale. THANK YOU!!!!!

I have had a couple of bad experiences while searching for my ford ranger. I was about to give up when a family member recommend Ford Covert in Hutto. Brandon Lopez was our salesperson and he did not waste anytime finding the right truck for me and at the right price. By the end of our appointment I had a better truck at a better price. 100% satisfied. Thank you Brandon and the team at Covert Ford. I look forward to our continued business in the future.

Joe Joseph is amazing!!! Just bought our 4th car from him and will not go anywhere else! He is such a great guy, he is straightforward and honest, and he takes impeccable care of his clientele. He also has built a GREAT team - Gary, Jerry, and Amit made sure the deal went through seamlessly - in under an hour. Unheard of, right?! This crew will make it happen. 5 stars all day.

Review №47

Bought a nice truck, but came to issues after the purchase, could not drive the vehicle off the lot due to issues regraded passing state inspection due to “tuner” on the vehicle which they promoted for the purchase. The tuner was removed and they would not release any info or refund me for what I was shown to be a selling point on the truck. Then the company proceeded to cost me $100+ in toll bills on my trade in vehicle by not taking ownership on the registration of the temporary tags on the vehicle in which I had contacted txtag to take the vehicle off but would still be in my name if the registration wasn’t taken over. I’m happy with the vehicle but the terms that followed has made me pretty displeased with the company.

The Salesman was very professional. The financing was squirrely as all hell. Even after I told them that I would finance through A+, they still killed my credit, running me through a bunch of others. Then tried to sale me on a loan with another institution with a higher interest rate. Beware of them...

You will NOT find a better or more classy auto group. The guys over at Covert Cadillac treated me so well, which such care and respect, and challenged all the cliches so well that I seriously plan to drive all the way to Austin just to visit them from time to time.If that’s not enough to sell you on them, I’ll say that Mr. Brian Chock is easily the sweetest car salesman you would ever meet. Then the finance guy, Jerry Duran, was so NOT the usual smarmy douche, that I seriously had to pause and tell him thank you for being so wonderful. He was just as he should have been. He was informative but never pushy. Plus, he has a great voice. Lol So after such stellar treatment, I asked to speak to Brian’s boss. Enter Mr. Clay Collins. He received my praise for his folks with grace and appreciation. LolI’ll summarize it with this: I sincerely wish I could afford to buy a new car every year just to go see these gentlemen and give them business.Do yourself a favor - go see Covert Cadillac for great service and a smile on your face when you drive off the lot.

Tim Elliott, the salesman I dealt with, went above and beyond to make sure my experience was as pleasant and fruitful as possible. He tried to help me find just what I was looking for, not just point me towards more expensive vehicles just to make more. When it came time for the purchase, he was very clear in explaining where the price came from, so that I could feel confident that I was getting a fair price.

Ryan Schulz with Covert Dodge in Austin did a fantastic job helping us. He listened to the features that were important to us and was able to find the right one for the right price, with no need for lengthy negotiation or hidden costs. The paperwork was efficiently explained and solidified our confidence that we made the right choice in choosing Covert Dodge. We walked in with ideas and drove away in the PERFECT vehicle. Would definitely return and definitely recommend.

Review №79

Worst experience ever! I decided to step out of my comfort zone and try a different make and model than what I had. I was told on a couple ocassion (Julie) would call me to discuss numbers. I never received that call. I had to contact the sales rep the following day and asked what was going on the next day. I get a (“I’m sorry I was busy all day yesterday and I’m off today. I will work on your deal first thing in the morning) I’m a very understanding and patient person but communication is the key to great customer service. Unfortunate the communication was horrible. I wasted 3 days trying to workout a reasonable deal.I ended up going to my local dealership that I had purchased a vehicle from before. I got rid of my 2017 and walked away with a 2019 with a payment I was comfortable with and it took less than an hour.

My experience with this dealership is not from purchasing a vehicle, but bringing one to them to fix. THEY OVERCHARGE, and take advantage, I for one will not be going back.

Review №84

Covert Auto was like going to the circus the day that the Ring Master was home. We came to look at a demo Chevy Tahoe and we stopped at the used car building. The young man working told us that the car we wanted was too many hoops to jump through to get it. He then sat my wife down at a computer and asked if he could deal with another customer. We left and went to the new car dealership (one building over) and they were happy to let us test drive the vehicle. The salesman persisted that if we wanted to purchase the vehicle there was a 1300 up-charge for getting the VIN number scribed in inconspicuous places on the vehicle and to put nitrogen in the tires. This of course raised the price of the car above the advertised price. We were also considering trading our car in and it took asking for the keys 4 times for them to finally give them to me. The best part is I asked were they parked it and they had no idea. I find myself in the parking lots (plural) holding my keys up in the air for well over 15 minutes before I found it and could leave.

Went in for tune up on my Lincoln next day my vehicle was burning some type of fluid smoke coming out through hood. Took a week to have someone look at it, i noticed something leaking over the motor block and burning. Clearly they did something wrong or tore something. Too much of coincidence, they kept vehicle 6 hrs just to tell me normal wear and tear. $150 to find problem plus extra to address issue. Bad experience.
