“For city vehicles, you can walk right in.”

Emergencies go straight to a person.

How It Works

When a Lincoln or Volvo customer calls Corley's.

  1. The call is answered right away

    With the store's own greeting, every time.

  2. Sorted by brand and visit

    Lincoln or Volvo, waiting, drop-off or shuttle.

  3. Some calls go to the team

    Recalls, emergencies, loaners and named staff.

Straight Answers

What dealerships ask about Phone AI and Xtime.

Can it be customized to how our store works?

Yes. Corley's AI runs six store-specific rules, from brand routing to a 4:00 PM cutoff for waiters.

Can one AI answer for two brands?

Yes. It sorts every caller by make and sends them to that brand's advisors.

What can be customized in service?

Greeting, booking rules, visit types, valet and shuttle offers, capacity cutoffs and where each call type transfers.

Does the customization cover sales and reception calls too?

Yes. Sales and general calls get their own routing, greeting and transfer rules.

What happens on an emergency call?

No-starts, dead batteries, tire trouble and same-day urgency go straight to the store's team.

Can transfers change by day or time?

Yes. The store picks who takes transfers for any day and hour.

Do we change our numbers or our phone system?

No. Same numbers, same phone system.

Does it book straight into Xtime?

Yes, while the caller is on the line. It also works with Reynolds, CDK, Tekion, DealerFX and PBS.

Can we see what happened on every call?

Yes. Every call is logged with what the caller wanted and what the AI did.

Something we did not cover? Ask on the call.
