Default Oklahoma Dealerships for Service?

I'm approaching the 7,500 mile service for my 2023.

using the app to schedule my service, I'm getting a "some of the services you've selected may not be available, please select another dealer"

Curious if there are any Tulsa forum members that can recommend a good dealer. I purchased the car from an out of state dealer. I don't trust many dealerships... too many horror stories to list. Hoping someone has a suggestion
thanks

I would ask are there any good dealers in Oklahoma that will perform service work on a C8 not purchased from them. I would start calling around, the issue I see on the forum is some dealers do not want to perform service on a C8 you purchased some where else. GM has no control over what dealerships will service or not service. You may have to get service from where you purchased it from or take the car to the big corvette dealerships for service.

As others have suggested, check out the Corvette clubs in your area.

Also, try posting in the applicable Regional Section of the forum where you have a more targeted audience.

Stay away from Route 66 Chevrolet in Tulsa!!!

I used the GM Supplier Program and bought what was advertised as a NEW Krypton Green 2017 Camaro SS in September of 2018. It had just over 300 miles on it. They said it had been used as their demo and had been on their lot for over a year.

I got it back to Iowa and found out it was actually a USED car.

I found this out when I took it in for service and the service manager (a friend of mine) asked when I bought it, I told him it was new and on September 15th. He looked it up, and found it was originally sold March 31st that year.

After numerous phone calls and emails that went unanswered, I hired a Tulsa attorney, Jason B Toon (a car guy too), and filed a complaint with General Motors.

In the end, I got a VERY NICE settlement, GM adjusted the warranty to reflect my purchase date, and GM never gave Route 66 Chevrolet their money for selling to a GM Supplier. My attorney, didn't take any of the settlement and just let Hyatt Legal Service pay him for his time.

Not even sure if Route 66 Chevrolet is even in business anymore. If they are, steer clear of them for anything.

If you're having trouble with a dealership in Tulsa, give Jason a call. He LOVES cases involving car STEALERships. Google him. Or DM me for his contact information.

I have had good luck with Glover Chevrolet in Tulsa. They have a great alignment technician that has done custom alignment specs for my C6 ZR1 and he did the track alignment on my C8. They also fixed an oil leak under warranty on my C8. I'll be taking my 2023 there for the first service in another month or so.

That's where i wound up. They seemed to be able and willing to take a C8 on. I know the owner just bought a z06 for himself, so I'd suspect that one will be there from time to time.

Thanks for the tip

I have used Bob Howard to service my seven Vettes (all daily drivers) for the past 26 years and have always been completely satisfied with their service. They did my 7,500 service last month.
