Testimonials
“ The Pohanka Chevrolet service department were reliable in fixing my car unknown issues. Alex and Christian were understanding and have exceptional customer service skills. Kudos to the team. ”
“ Got me in and out in 3 hours. Waiting on a part but since this is a business truck I got it back on the road quickly. Will bring it back in when the part is here. Thank God it runs. Although with no AC. It does the job. But I am sweating 😓 ”
“ I had a great experience working with Preet Patel at Pohanka Chevrolet when purchasing my 2024 GMC Sierra 1500. He was professional, helpful, and made the process smooth from start to finish. Preet answered my questions, explained everything clearly, and made sure I felt comfortable with my purchase. I truly appreciate his patience and excellent customer service. I would definitely recommend working with Preet and Pohanka Chevrolet to anyone looking for a vehicle. ”
“ Another great visit. As a corvette owner I am very picky about anywhere I take my vette. This is the only place I trust and come everytime. Fantastic service and fast, especially considering you just drive up without an appointment and they get you in and out as quick as any dealer. Also, Thanks Moses! Great service. ”
“ Worked with Michael and just went in on a whim to see what might be available to me and he was kind, informative and super knowledgeable and personable. I left and didn’t buy a car. He kept in touch not hounding just checking in and he showed me a car that I couldn’t walk away from and a Blessing that I know was for me and my daughter. Thank you Michael my daughter and I will be back when she retires my old car and is ready to purchase her first car. I will see you all soon for my first free oil change 🫶🏾I named her Pearl and she’s beautiful. Thank you from the bottom of my heart 💜. God Bless You and the Managers there that helped and make this possible for me. ”
“ My wife and I were helped by Sophie and Stephen throughout our car buying process here, they were very nice and friendly people. Sophie was very adamant about making sure we were happy with what we were getting in terms of financial terms, trade-in value, maintenance information, and the car we wanted and needed. Thank you, Sophie and Stephen, we plan on returning here when the time comes for a new vehicle because of you ”
“ Sophie waa great to work with! She was very engaging and answers all our questions. Our daughter is super excited about her "new" car. ”

“ Jonah Kemp is the best car sales person I have ever worked with in a car purchasing situation . So professional. Best price after shopping several dealers on same exact Tahoe product. Best service I have been exposed to. Two hours going over features of car with us. Five minutes signing papers. If you don’t go here you’re missing the boat. I have probably bought 50 to 60 vehicles in past 30 years. You should give this dealership a chance to earn your business and ask for Jonah. Call Jonah at Pohanka in Chantilly. You will not be disappointed. They worked with me to offer a better price point than my past dealer by several percent. We are extremely pleased with our purchase and the service afforded by Jonah and the dealership. Howard Holt ”

They took the time to listen, answered every question thoroughly, and made the whole process smooth and transparent from start to finish. It's clear why I keep coming back. I highly recommend Pohanka Chevrolet to anyone in the market for a car and a stress-free buying experience. Thanks again to Stephen (finance manager) and Cameron (sales rep) for another great experience! ”

“ After a very difficult experience purchasing an EV at another dealership, I was honestly hesitant to start the process again. Fortunately, my experience with Pohanka Chevrolet in Chantilly completely restored my faith in what a great car-buying experience can be. From my very first inquiry, the team was responsive, professional, and respectful of my time. I live in Baltimore, and when I explained that it would take some coordination to get to the dealership, they immediately worked with me to find a solution. They even arranged transportation to the dealership, which was above and beyond anything I expected. What impressed me most was how prepared they were. I completed much of the process online beforehand, and when I arrived, the vehicle was ready, the paperwork was organized, and the team was prepared to move efficiently through the purchase process. I spent less than three hours at the dealership, which may be the smoothest car-buying experience I’ve ever had. I was also traveling with my daughter after a long drive, and when I mentioned needing to grab food for her, the team insisted on ordering lunch for us instead. While that was a very thoughtful gesture, what stood out most was the genuine care and hospitality they showed throughout the entire experience. At every step, I felt valued as a customer. There were no games, no unnecessary delays, and no pressure. Just clear communication, professionalism, and exceptional service. Thank you to everyone at Pohanka Chevrolet who helped make this such a positive experience. I would gladly make the trip from Baltimore again to work with this team. ”
“ Jonah did a great job!!! We appreciate all of his help. ”
“ I recently had work done on my car and needed to take it to a Chevrolet dealership. After previously having a bad experience with the Chevrolet dealership in Manassas, I decided to give Pohanka Chevrolet a try—and I’m really glad I did. My entire experience was excellent. Derek, my service advisor, was professional, friendly, and made the process easy from start to finish. He kept me informed every step of the way, explained everything clearly, and made sure I always knew what was happening with my vehicle. Because of the outstanding service I received, I will definitely be returning to Pohanka for future maintenance and repairs, and I’ll specifically request to work with Derek again. When it’s time to purchase a new vehicle, I’ll be coming back to Pohanka for that as well. ”
“ Fast and professionals ”
“ I'm Seventy years old and have bought several new cars. Pohanka Chevrolet was the best dealership that I have ever bought from ,our salesman Caleb Lemons was very thoughtful, helpful, and easy to work with. I'm glad I didn't buy my new Corvette anywhere else ”
“ Excellent Service ”
“ Sent out some inquiries online to 4 different dealerships. Cameron from Pohanka Chevrolet reached out to me within 5 minutes. 5 minutes later, the manager snick reached out to me. Was not the cheapest vehicle I was looking at, but to someone who works in customer service, I’ll pay for that. Never heard back from 2 other dealers and the other I heard back from a few hours after the inquiry. Nick, Cam, and myself all chatted for the next few days trying to find a time for our schedules to align. Showed up drove the vehicle, and took it home just an hour or so later. Best process buying a car. Thanks again to Cam, Nick, and Stephen in the closing office. I’ll be back some day! ”
