AutoFair Ford responded

Ms Libby brought her vehicle into AutoFair Ford with a concern of noise from the rear of the car while driving at highway speeds and that both passenger side seat belts were not working. Ms Libby signed her Repair Order with a preliminary estimate of $159.95; it states on the Repair Order that there is a $159.95 diagnostic charge, which as I stated Ms Libby signed agreeing to pay. The technician inspected her vehicle and determined that the noise was from the tires due to the fact that they were bald and chopped. It was recommended that all four tires be replaced as they were worn down to 3/32. New Hampshire State Inspection laws state that 2/32 is the minimum so the tires technically would pass the state inspection. However, they were in poor condition and would be the most obvious reason for the road noise. It was found that the rear passenger seatbelt functioned properly when tested by the technician. However, the front passenger seatbelt did not. AutoFair recommended replacing the front passenger seatbelt. Upon examining her vehicle, the technician did not find any evidence of bad wheel bearings but again, with the tires in such poor condition he wouldn’t rule it out. Tim explained that the wheel bearings may be covered under warranty and if they were covered, she would be reimbursed her diagnosis charge. Since the tires replicate the same type of noise that a bad wheel bearing makes, the tire noise needed to be eliminated to make a final diagnosis. When Ms Libby picked up her vehicle she was given a report stating all of the recommendation by the technician as well as a plan of action. She declined all the services that were recommended. Later, Ms Libby called and spoke to Tim Jordan the Service Manager and stated she was dissatisfied. Tim offered to have her return to the dealership and road test the vehicle with him. He also explained that with the tires in as bad of shape as they are in that it is difficult to differentiate the noise being a bearing issue or just tire noise. With regards to the seatbelt issue, Tim advised her that when came in for the road test he would evaluate the proper operation with her present. Ms Libby proceeded to hang up on Tim. Ms Libby then called and spoke to Kathy, the Customer Relations Manager, stating her concerns. Kathy went through the same explanation as to the reasons which didn’t seem to help as Ms Libby began to use profanity in the conversation. Since Ms Libby would not stop with her inappropriate language, Kathy was forced to end the conversation. James Davis, Service Director, was informed of the issue and contacted Ms Libby the following day to discuss her complaint. During the discussion, James explained the reasons for the service department’s actions and refunded her the diagnostic charge since she was unhappy with her service.

It's unfortunate that AutoFair felt the need to respond to my report with many misconceptions, untrue and flat out lies!!! It was terrible service I recieved and my opinion of AutoFair is unchanged.

Autofair Ford would like to apologize for this customer's perception of her experience at our dealership and for her ensuing negative review. Charlie had locked the customer's components in his desk solely for safekeeping and was on a scheduled day off. He had no intention whatsoever of keeping the customer's secured property, which was returned to the customer the next day. We appreciated the customer's candid feedback which created an opportunity for us to refocus on policy when removing components at the customer's request.
