Excellent Service and a Professional Team Special thanks to advisor Gregory and Dawn! I visited the Service Department at Empire Chevrolet of Hicksville last Saturday for my annual New York State vehicle inspection. Unfortunately, my vehicle did not pass on the first attempt. The staff recommended that I drive the car more frequently, as it may not have been driven enough recently. They also proactively arranged a 10-day extension for my inspection, giving me sufficient time to continue driving the vehicle before returning for a retest. I returned yesterday, the following Saturday, and was happy to pass the inspection this time. Their advice turned out to be spot on, and I really appreciated their helpfulness and initiative in making the process easier for me. What impressed me most was not only the quality of their service but also the professionalism and courtesy of the entire team. Everyone I encountered was friendly, polite, and well organized. Communication was clear, and the service process was handled smoothly. Unlike some dealerships where things can become confusing when the original service advisor is unavailable, the team here seemed well coordinated and able to keep track of my situation. I felt that they genuinely cared about providing consistent service rather than leaving customers to explain everything all over again. Overall, I had a very positive experience with the Service Department at Empire Chevrolet of Hicksville. I appreciate their professionalism, clear communication, and customer-oriented approach. I would definitely return to this dealership for future service needs and would recommend them to others looking for a reliable and well-organized service team.

Everything was perfect. Our service advisor is Dawn, and every time we call, she gets us an appointment, makes sure our cars are taken care of well and keeps us updated on concerns that we might have as they're going through the process of servicing our vehicles.. She's an absolutely wonderful service writer and a pleasure to work with. Since I met Dawn at Empire, I've been bringing all my cars there and so are my children. She's an excellent representative of Empire.

DO NOT GET YOUR CAR REPAIRED HERE. They are dishonest disrespectful and have no consideration for a customer’s time. I just picked up my Tahoe which was in on a warranty transmission which took 12 weeks and 3 days. On top of that they had the car this summer for 10 weeks. The rep Fritz does not call you back ever. One day I have to stop in to check the car’s status and I was being snarky asking if his phones were working because he never returned my call he got all in my face. Would not give me the status of my repair and said I should just leave. Dawn as well as the asst service manager saw that and did nothing. By writing this review I am voiding the warranty on it because I truly believe they would sabotage my car. Because of the length of the repair they closed out my bill And opened another so there would be no record of the actual time it took to repair the car. Asked for a loaner because they were backed up told that they don’t do that. Do yourself a favor go anywhere but here. These car dealerships are getting so big there’s no competition they just don’t care about the customers anymore. So as expected the transmission failed for the 4 time. Do yourself a favor and stay far away from them.

Had my Traverse serviced at Empire Chevrolet of Hicksville. Dawn Donovan and the service Manager were great. The electric work on my entertainment system was excellent.
