Nothing Says Courtesy like Courtesy Chevrolet

General Info
San Francisco born, Edward J. Fitzgerald arrived in Phoenix during August, 1955, from Los Angeles, where he had worked with R. Mitchel McClure. Together they began Courtesy Chevrolet, an Arizona corporation, in an old farmhouse at 1521 East Camelback Road, which had a tin shed out in the back, which was used as a makeshift garage and make ready area. At this time, Courtesy Chevrolet was located on the outskirts of town, and especially as far as the business was concerned. In those days, the Phoenix Arizona city limits were located at the Grand Canal, which passes a half-mile south of the dealership. While the business was getting under way, properties were being purchased a few blocks to the west, architects plans were drawn, and eventually building was begun. In 1957, Courtesy Chevrolet moved down the street to the present facility at 1233 East Camelback Road, and since that time, has prospered and grown. In late 1963 and early 1964, the second floor addition was completed, and in 1978 the building was completed to house recreational vehicles, and where the Commercial Fleet Department is presently located. 1985 saw the completion of the new Parts Department at 1230 East Pierson Street, on the site where Mr. McClure's home and stable used to be. From 1999-2001, property was acquired on the south side of Pierson, and make ready and reconditioning have been moved there, along with some additional room for vehicle storage. Another building project saw the completion of the doubling of our service bays during this time. During 2001, the Used Car Department expanded onto Bell Road, near 16th Street, in an effort to further expand the resale vehicle business. Currently under development is a new and used vehicle get ready facility. In February of 1969, Mr. Fitzgerald purchased Mr. McClure's share of this fine business, and in March of 1981, Mr. Fitzgerald included Mr. William R. Gruwell as a partner in Courtesy Chevrolet, where Mr. Gruwell today is the Vice President and Dealer Operator. Upon the passing of Mr. Fitzgerald in 2000, Mr. Gruwell became a partner with Mrs. Fitzgerald. In recent years, both sons of William R. Gruwell, Mark and Scott, having worked in sales, are now Used and New Car Sales Managers, respectively. Presently almost four hundred people derive their incomes from this dealership. All of our employees have helped us to build and maintain a fine reputation in the Valley of the Sun, and the State of Arizona. It is the intention of the Fitzgerald and Gruwell families to maintain these fine relationships within the community and to continue operation here in Phoenix Arizona for many years to come. At Courtesy Chevrolet, we look forward to serving you, or valued customer, for years to come. Please stop by our dealership, located at 1233 E. Camelback Road, Phoenix, AZ and speak with one of our representatives today!

Overall

It was wonderful. We went as part of the buy one/get one Black Friday special. We had our vehicles already picked out and had taken the extra measure of getting pre-approved to speed up the process so that we could claim the free car of our choice. Everything went smoothly and we were out of there within 2 hours with both vehicles, including the completely free second vehicle. Both cars are absolutely amazing and the customer service only got better when we received a call two days later asking us to come back in to re-sign as courtesy Chevrolet had continued to shop around our application and had gotten us a lower interest rate by 6%. We couldn't have been more thrilled.

Overall

I had an appointment for standard maintenance on my Cobalt. I had been looking and then was introduced to Mark. Besides being at the dealership from 9:45AM until 5:30PM, Mark Cunningham was great.

Overall

Everyone was extremely courteous as the name implies. Hats off to our sales associate, Russ and Lucy in finance, Benny in parts, Jessica for explaining the incredible mylink system with nav, and Mike the sales mgr for single handedly saving the sale when a misunderstanding on the nav system came up, he found another vehicle equipped the way we wanted in Tucson and got it here the same day. We will be back in the future because of him and our sales associate Jim.

Overall

I felt like you wanted my business the moment i walked in. TEAM USAA gave the the confidence to even want to walk into a dealership,your team was complete, I didnt get what i was looking for, but very bless and happy with what i left in. your staff inthe rating i give to military units that is hard to come by was Outstanding!

Overall

Returned leased 2012 Chevy Volt (processed in by Dana Batchan). Tested and evaluated 2015 Chevy Impala 2LT and came to terms on new 39-month lease (handled entirely by Dana Batchan). Dana was exceptionally well-versed on vehicle's features and comparisons to other models in the Impala line. Called in advance to state what I was looking for and Dana had already selected the vehicle from stock. Dana did a very fine job throughout the process.

the staff was great! We were very apprehensive after a terrible car buying experience in 2008 at another dealership. Nate was wonderful and made sure he was meeting our expectations. He truly made it a great experience!
