Default IE Dealer Work Recommendations?

A search failed to turn up any dealer recommendations for warranty work in the Inland Empire - anywhere in the Claremont/Upland loc. I have a door alignment and some minor things that need looking at.

I thought I read somewhere that Richard Hibbard in Claremont sells a lot of vette's but their service left some to be desired. How about Mountain View in Upland? Anywhere else close?

Thanks.

I like Paradise Chevrolet in Temecula, they have always done right by me and several others. They even take care of my other vehicles.

About a year and a half ago I bought a 02 C5 that I knew would need work. Sure enough after a month the transmission went out. Took it to Mountain View and had a new 6 speed transmission installed. Within 2 weeks second gear was popping out. Took the car back to Mountain View and worked with Jeff the Service Manager who agreed to replace the trans with a another new one rather than rebuild. He was short a technician to do the work so he took the car to Mark Christopher who finished the job. Mark Christopher and Mountain View are related, if you didnt know.

When I bought a new 1998 C5 I had it serviced at Mark Christopher. Had the usual problems, i.e column lock, gas gauge, tire sensor replacements. They did a good job and never had any issues with their work. I now take the 02 C5 to Mountain View only because they're so close to where I live. I've gotten great service from Mountain View and will continue to have the C5 serviced there. Hope that helps.
