# Summary The dealership receives highly polarized feedback, with most customers praising specific sales representatives like Cortney, Brett, Chad, and Matt for their professionalism, efficiency, and personable approach that made the buying experience smooth and comfortable. However, one customer reported a frustrating initial interaction with poor communication and perceived rudeness from a staff member, which led them to purchase elsewhere.

I had a very disappointing experience with this dealership and would strongly caution others. I initially reached out requesting information on a vehicle, as most buyers do. Like anyone managing a busy schedule, I inquired on multiple vehicles and continued with my day. The initial follow-up I received was minimal—two very short text messages along the lines of “closing a deal” and “I’ll call back,” with no actual information provided. I returned the call and left a message. In the meantime, I was contacted by another representative regarding a vehicle. I did not realize it was from the same dealership, which is completely understandable when you’re being contacted by multiple dealerships during a search. When I called back to follow up on that inquiry, I was routed through reception and transferred to Chad. Despite this being our first actual conversation, Chad was immediately rude and told me I was being “impatient.” That framing was completely inaccurate and unprofessional given the situation. Later that evening, Chad called again asking if I wanted to “start over,” while implying I had done something wrong. That level of attitude—especially toward a potential customer who had not even had a proper initial interaction—is concerning. I chose to take my business elsewhere and purchased from Sarchione Chevrolet, where the experience was smooth and professional. I should thank Coughlin because I received a great deal on a beautiful truck. Based on my experience, I would recommend proceeding with caution.

I cant say enough about Cortney. She was fantastic to work with! She was really down to earth and showed a human side to sales and wasnt just trying to sell a car. She made my partner and I feel so comfortable with the whole process and kept it “real” with us. Cortney deserves an employee of the year award, hands down! And i couldnt be happier with my purchase! This was my first non-Ford car and after the buying experience with Cortney and the coughlin team, i don’t think i’ll ever go anywhere else for a car again!

Brett Eisenhauer was great to work with. He made it simple and efficient. He was fair and knowledgeable, easily providing good options. Walked away confident in my decision and happy with my experience.

Hands down the best car buying experience. Chad Chesrown delivers a 5 star experience. He is efficient and knowledgeable, providing the smoothest car buying experience. In fact, we trust him so much we have purchased 3 vehicles from him in the last year as needs have come up.

Best buying experience I have had to date!! Matt was professional annd thoroughly explained the features of the truck before I left the dealership! Matt did not hover as we walked the lot. I highly recommend the Coughlin Team!! Everyone from sales to finance were phenomenal I gave them a target payment and the nailed it!! I will definitely buy here again!!
