News Summary

A powerful hailstorm hit Round Rock and Georgetown last Sunday, causing extensive damage to businesses, particularly the Steele GMC Round Rock dealership.

Hailstorm Causes Significant Damage to Steele GMC Round Rock Dealership and Nearby Areas

The skies over Round Rock and Georgetown turned ominous last Sunday night, and what followed was an astonishing hailstorm that left many residents and businesses picking up the pieces. As the storm rolled in, it brought with it an unexpected fury in the form of hailstones, some as large as a massive 3 inches in diameter! The extreme weather wreaked havoc on the community, and those at the local auto dealerships felt its wrath most severely.

Dealership Damage: A Troubling Sight

Earlier this week, both the Round Rock Hyundai and Round Rock Honda dealerships were quick to share photos depicting the aftermath of the storm. The images revealed a disheartening scene – shattered windshields and dented vehicles that now sit stagnant, victims of Mother Nature’s unpredictable temperament. The Steele GMC Round Rock dealership was not spared from the storm’s impact, reporting serious damages that have left staff and customers anxious about the future.

At Steele GMC, the hailstorm brought along cracked windshields that affected several cars on the lot. Thankfully, the dealership had some fortuitous luck on its side, finding that there were no instances of broken windshields or sunroofs among their vehicles. This stroke of luck has probably saved many owners from the hassle and pricey headache of water damage!

Sales and Services on the Horizon

Despite the damage, the diligent team at Steele GMC Round Rock is working hard to turn a challenging situation into an opportunity. The dealership is planning on hosting a hail damage car sale in the near future, inviting bargain hunters to explore a selection of vehicles affected by the storm. While specifics on discounts are still being calculated, customers can expect deals that might just make their day a little brighter.

On top of facilitating sales, Steele GMC Round Rock also aims to assist customers in getting their hail-damaged vehicles repaired in the coming days. However, it’s worth noting that not everything is straightforward. The dealership currently lacks an on-site body shop, complicating the process of immediate repairs.

Challenges Ahead Due to an Ongoing Strike

As if the hailstorm devastation weren’t enough, Steele GMC is also facing some logistical hurdles due to an ongoing auto workers’ strike. This strike has resulted in delays in parts deliveries, which could turn into a stumbling block for timely repairs. So, while drivers may be eager to fix their cars, they could find themselves waiting just a bit longer than expected.

As Round Rock residents continue to assess the impact of the storm, it’s clear that the effects of the hail will linger for some time. However, as the community rallies together in the face of adversity, it shows just how resilient people can be, even in the toughest of times. For those looking for great deals or hoping to get their beloved rides back in shape, Steele GMC Round Rock is doing everything it can to make that happen!

In the coming days and weeks, everyone affected by the storm will likely have their own stories to tell. One thing remains certain: the charm and determination of the Round Rock community will shine through as they work to recover from this unexpected hailstorm.
