Dont buy a chevy car from Jaiddah

Hi,I would like to raise a big issue i am facing with Jaidah motor service in Industrial are in addition to the repetitive issues with my Chevrolet Aveo car (1st owner, model 2007, 50 000Km).

1st the problems i faced with my car since i bought it from company in 2007 are many. And every time i am paying lot of money, problems like gear box, AC cooling engine, and recently with the engine itself and many other problems i can't list them all. The guys in Chevrolet service in the industrial area did never show any professionalism or protectiveness with dealing with their customers. The way they talk is not professional at all, they never call you to give you updates, you have always to call them and if you were lucky and they answered, they told you that a part is missing and they will ship it from Dubai or elsewhere but they are not receiving updates from Dubai... But actually, i noticed that they are not even asking fro updates from Dubai...

I am really not satisfied at all with this service, i am in hurry to get my car back in order to sell it and buy another new one from other company with better service like Honda or Nissan. NEVER buy a Chevrolet (especially Aveo).
I am sure that i am not the only person facing problems with this service there, a friend of mine has a Blazer and facing more issues.
It seems many people in Qatar are complaining, please check some of the links i found under qatar living website.

That's the most common problem one get when buying a second hand vehicle. Most often than not, it got major issues and after superb cosmetic repairs...you'll end up spending more for fixing the blasted tin can.

That's why I go for rental car nowadays...coz if i have any problem, I get the service, they replace it without any hassles for me.

well i have been a chevy owner for the past 5 years, and i've dealt with Jaidah all this time, honestly speeking there has been a dramatic change in the service. 2 years back it was not ok, but now it's very good, efficient and professional. maybe you need to talk to the reception supervisors and am sure they'll fix your problems.

this is not unique in

qatar, I've got experience with 6-7 dealerships here and all are really bad, actually the worst is the Toyota Dealership.

Chevrolet chooses cruelest and dirtiest people worldwide.In our city they have chosen an Indian Hitler to run the dealership.I have seen Harrasment of my father since last 10 years.....

I have found car ownership in general to be a bad experience here.

I have up and now lease the same care i would have bought (Nissan Patrol). It is obscenely more expensive, but hassle free.
