Award Winning Chevrolets at Uftring Weston



Chevrolet is always winning awards. The Chevrolet brand was recently given several Edmunds Awards, recognized by Edmunds.com. Seven of Chevy’s models including the Impala, Camaro, Colorado, Corvette Stingray, Silverado, Traverse and Tahoe were named nine different awards for this 2014 year.

The new Chevy Colorado, Impala, Corvette Stingray, Traverse, Camaro, Silverado 1500 and Tahoe were awarded “Most Popular.” The Corvette Stingray and Traverse were also named the most “Top Rated Vehicles.” 

How does a vehicle get awarded? To be considered “Top Rated,” you must be selected from a group of 200 other vehicles. To be labeled a “Most Popular” vehicle, Chevrolet had to meet a certain requirements including the number of unique visitors to the specific type of model. The more a vehicle is searched, the more popular it becomes on the web, the more likely it is to be on the list. And Chevrolet definitely has a big presence on this year’s Edmunds.com Awards!

That backyard BBQ feeling is just one of the many reasons our service department has built a very reliable, trustworthy reputation in the community. “The best part of working at Uftring, from personal experience, is helping turn a potential negative vehicle experience into a positive one. Generally, people need service when there is a problem; turning the “problem” into a positive experience is what we try to do in our service department.”

We are service experts at Uftring Chevrolet, and what better way to get advice than from an expert? Nate’s advice to his customers is simple. Here’s three great service tips from him that you should always keep in mind.

1.  Stay attuned to your vehicle. You drive it everyday and know if something sounds funny, or runs differently. All the little details help get the car repaired the first time!

2. Stay up on the little maintenances for less trouble in the long run. Fluid changes can prevent costly repairs in the future.

3. If you’re trying to find the right service department for you, look for a service department that has fun at work. If the team is enjoying themselves and their job, they’ll take better care of you as a customer.
