What dealership is the best?

So I have to take my car in to get a few thing looked at and I'm wondering which dealership would you people recommend. I live in Surrey, and i know there are a few dealership around like flag but I have heard bad thing about the service there and how they take forever to do anything.

Don't take it to Carter.
Really don't take it to the one by Brentwood Mall.
Moms bought a new CTS, in the summer, they scratched the hell out of it after having it for 4 days and not finding the problem.
Had to fight with them just to get them to fix the scratches they made and then when we finally got the car back it had over spray all over it and the door handle on the drivers side rear door didn't work.
The car was all of 6 weeks old at this point, plus they refused to provide us with a loaner car, even after they screwed our car up.
If thats how they treat someone who just bought a $50,000 car 6 weeks earlier I hate to see how they would treat someone with a Cobalt bought somewhere else

Think you can get the service centre to fix my second gear synchros and whatever is causing them to wear? Cuz that would be BEAUTIFUL.... my dealer kept telling me there was nothing wrong, eventually after many calls to GM customer care, they took the car in , took apart the tranny and discovered HEY your second gear synchros are worn to ****! No **** sherlock! lol.

I need a better dealer to go to... problem wasn't fixed, just the wear from it temporarily, but there is something causing the wear (no its not my driving, anyone who drives my car has the same issue). Brought it to Mertin in Chilliwack, they said go back to my original dealer, called GM customer care, they said go to my original dealer.................................damnit I want my second gear back

we def need to do that many more times in the near future ... many more track meets!!!

Unfortunately I have only had 1 opportunity to send my car down the track so hopefully more to go in the near future, I'll be working a lot less than before .
