Chris offered to drive to my home in North Saanich to pick me up and save me driving up and coming home with 2 vehicles. He also took the time to test drive 3 vehicles with me to be sure I was buying the appropriate one for my needs. This is the 2nd new Canyon I have bought from this dealership, a 5 star raring for the whole procedure. More

We would like to thank Morgan Newton for his patience when dealing with us as we negotiated a deal buying our new 2025 Buick Encore. Although our final deal did not include extended warranty which we had when dealing with us as we negotiated a deal buying our new 2025 Buick Encore. Although our final deal did not include extended warranty which we had said we wanted (we didn't realize it wasn't written down) we are happy with the car. We were pleased that set meeting times happened when scheduled. The staff was friendly and helpful. Morgan was especially obliging and good to work with. Only work done was the undercoating package and it was done fine. More

Thank you to Carter Brooks for making purchasing a vehicle easy with minimal stress. I’m from out of town and purchasing a vehicle remotely is a bit scary.

I paid $100 to be put on the list for the EV Chevrolet Equinox and $100 for the EV Chevrolet Blazer, total $200, at the dealership. After a year of not being contacted I spoke to the dealership and was to Equinox and $100 for the EV Chevrolet Blazer, total $200, at the dealership. After a year of not being contacted I spoke to the dealership and was told due to a computer system upgrade they had lost my deposit. I brought in my paperwork and they agreed to mail me a refund. After 4 months of waiting I contacted them again and was told they had lost the my paperwork and the finance manager who had taken it had moved. They refused to contact the Finance manager to find out where my paperwork had gone. They then wanted to see the credit card proof of purchase, which I provided them to see. The manager told me a cheque would be sent to me within the week. They have made no attempt to return my money and are refusing to do so. More

A shout out to salesman Mike Hildebrand and general manager Chris Nicol for the lies and deceit for new truck rear window decals that were supposed to be ordered at time of purchase, and 2 months later manager Chris Nicol for the lies and deceit for new truck rear window decals that were supposed to be ordered at time of purchase, and 2 months later I was told that Chris was just putting the order in. In between the 2 months I was told many lies from the decals were ordered to the shop making a mistake on the decals and Chris wasn’t happy the way they turned out so he sent them back and me going to the shop myself 2 months from purchase and asking if they new anything of a truck decal order.I was told there wasn’t an order ever placed. The shop phoned the dealership and as that happened, I received a text message from Mike saying that Chris just ordered the decals. What a croc of s***!! I have purchased 7 new trucks in 15 years from Harris Oceanside GMC and to be treated like this from these 2 BOZO the CLOWNS!! I will get my truck serviced @ Nanaimo GMC or Port Alberni Chev from now on. Since New Management that took place early 2024 as I was told by Mike,I feel that this dealership has been such a let down.If I could give a zero star review that is what it would be.See you later Oceanside,much later.👎👎 More

I just bought a new ( used ) Car from Carter Brooks. This young man was so knowledgeable about the SUV that I bought. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a new or used vehicle. Carter was very p This young man was so knowledgeable about the SUV that I bought. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a new or used vehicle. Carter was very polite and if he didn't have an answer to your question he made sure he got it for you. The experience I had at the dealership was like family. Everyone there had a smile on their faces and greeted you when you walked in. If I was to buy another vehicle I would go back to Harris Oceanside. Thank you everyone there, Frank Aszody More

I had an interesting, challenging and rewarding experience at Oceanside Harris this weekend. Due to a misunderstanding between a couple of employees, the deal we had agreed upon was not the one th experience at Oceanside Harris this weekend. Due to a misunderstanding between a couple of employees, the deal we had agreed upon was not the one that was presented to me by their Financial Officer. After a lot of back and forth, the General Manager and Sales Manager agreed that I should not be "penalized" for the in-house misunderstanding, and honoured the price I was expecting. This conversation could have easily gone sideways, but kudos to Chris and Leif. It is very nice to see that this dealership will ultimately stand up for what is right, and I would recommend Oceanside for their honesty and very nice way to treat customers. I will be back. More

Harris Oceanside GM scammed us out of money. I had a very disappointing experience with Harris Oceanside GM, specifically Amanda Hildebrand and her manager Leif Peek. I was interested in a ve I had a very disappointing experience with Harris Oceanside GM, specifically Amanda Hildebrand and her manager Leif Peek. I was interested in a vehicle, and since I’m in Vancouver while they’re on Vancouver Island, Amanda offered to cover my ferry ticket if I came to test drive the car. She assured me they would pay for the ticket regardless of whether we buy the car. The test drive went well, and I made an offer of $760 below asking, which I felt was reasonable. Their counter? $10 off. We couldn’t come to an agreement, so I simply asked for the ferry reimbursement as promised. I had the physical receipt and handed it to them in person, and they assured me the cheque would be mailed. It took over a month just for them to even claim they had sent it. Now two months later, I still have not received anything. I have followed up six times, asking for basic details like when it was sent and whether they had the correct address. No response. I even requested they void the cheque in case it was lost (if it was actually sent) and send the money electronically instead—still nothing. Both Amanda and Leif have been completely unresponsive. At this point, I feel completely scammed out of over $100, and their refusal to respond speaks volumes. If they can’t even uphold a simple promise like this, imagine what it would be like if you had an issue after buying a car. Be very careful with what they offer you as chances are it’s just an empty promise and they won’t follow through. More
