They give a loaner car if they have one available so we dont have to rent with enterprises. They always make their work good. I am always 100% satisfied I will go back to them for services and to buy a new car (2014 Impala) Roy Potter is service man of the year he is the reason we keep going back. This service department is very user friendly and very professional. They are really really really good we are really happy!
Description of Work: I have a 2005 Chevy Impala that they had to replace a couple of censors. First one was around $525 and the second was around $125.

The salesman came out. The salesman's last name was Darling. He listened to us, took his time. He listened to what we wanted and made us an excellent deal. We drove off that night with it. He listened and didn't try pushing at all. No pressure at all.

My whole experience was great. They scheduled me for a drop off before work, shuttled me back to my other vehicle, and I still got to work on time! I brought the vehicle in for the heat shield and fender piece, but they went ahead and made sure everything was in good working order. They identified that my brake pads were extremely worn (which was definitely the case after over 100,000 miles). They contacted me to discuss their findings before proceeding with the work and provided me a verbal quote for services over the phone. After I OK'd the additional work, they went ahead and got it completed same day. My car was ready for me before I got off work that day.
Description of Work: Replaced heat shield that had been knocked loose and dragging from the snow. Fixed fender well also damaged by the snow. Full inspection of vehicle function, and replaced brake pads/machined rotors/oil change.

I had good experience with them. They were very helpful. They know what they are doing and they are very courteous. Things have been done right. I think they are very professional and they know their job and they do a pretty good job. Their pricing is compatible with others. It’s not cheap but I would rather have my job done right. I think their pricing is reasonably all right.

Their pricing is probably average for the market. The experience was excellent. They did everything right, were polite and gave me a rental car to use and did not charge me for it. They have done everything right and have done it when they say they will. If I need a part or something they tell me and give me the option of taking the car back. They are good.

The experience could only be described as relaxing, informative and helpful at all times. On numerous occasions over the phone, Eric helped me get the best financing possible, and always returned my phone messages ASAP, despite being extraordinarily busy. In person, he gave me all the time I needed to test drive the car (without his presence, I might add) and then to go over all of the features associated with my new 2013 Kia Soul + wagon.
Description of Work: Eric Norris at Ray Skillman Auto Center on the south side of Indy is one of the classiest, most professional auto sales guys around! Thanks, Eric, for getting me into the car of my dreams. He's an honest, candid, positive, and energetic sales professional -- a genuinely good guy. Even when he was with three different customers, he always found a way to get back to me to answer my questions. He recognizes the importance of the customer not just as a revenue source, but a true person whom, I personally believe, he hopes will leave his showroom floor truly satisfied. Thanks again, Eric! You definitely have my vote of confidence! If you decide to visit Ray Skillman Auto Center on Highway U.S. 31 South, he's the man to ask for! -Jim BrownIndianapolis

I have purchased not one but two vehicles from Ray Skillman and I cannot say enough about them. I also work with a guy that came from their Body Shop and he, too, agrees that they are very fair and honest when it comes to their Sales and Service. I have a 2010 Kia Forte that I purchased brand new. They gave me a pretty good deal (considering my previous vehicle was wrecked) and they also cleaned the vehicle and detailed it before I picked it up. Since then, I have taken it in for minor issues (nothing major) and each time Ray Skillman has been great. Their staff is very friendly and helpful. One time, I took the vehicle in because my alignment was somewhat off. Turns out, it was the automatic alignment on the vehicle (the road I travel on crowns to the left apparently) and not only did they look over the vehicle and provide me a free rental car, they also cleaned the vehicle for me and washed it. The previous vehicle I purchased was a 2004 Chevy Malibu, which I traded in on my current vehicle. I have never had any issues with either vehicle nor have I had issues with the staff at both the car dealership and/or the Sales Dept. I would have to say that this is a great place to go if you are thinking of purchasing a car.
Description of Work: I have purchased two separate vehicles from them (2010 Kia Forte and 2004 Chevy Malibu) and I also use their Service Center and Auto Body shop for my repairs.

I take it there instead of my dealer. The guy I go to knows me by name and he doesn't force anything on me. The other dealer called my stupid for not signing an extended warranty.
