The work was completed in less then 40 minutes and the service man that drove my car up said it was ready to go. I then left the dealership. When I got home I realized that I had not received the paperwork from the dealership. My bad. More

Best in Town! Perkins Motors is by far the best dealership around! I recently brought my Jeep Cherokee there for a recall. I was greeted by a friendly face and pr Perkins Motors is by far the best dealership around! I recently brought my Jeep Cherokee there for a recall. I was greeted by a friendly face and procedures were explained to me as it was my first time receiving service here. I pulled forward and Jeff immediately identified a coolant leak, just by smell. I was skeptical at first, but when I opened the hood, I saw the leak the same time he did. He then pulled up the information on my vehicle and he said that he had the parts for the recall, and that I needed 3 computer updates. I asked if it would be possible to squeeze in an oil change as well as check my rear tire as I was slowly losing air. He said that it would not be an issue and then I was offered a ride to my home/work/etc. I had already arranged a ride so I declined. A couple hours later, I received a phone call with the status of my vehicle. The leak was more severe than originally detected, but covered under warranty. He then continued that my car would be ready within the next hour but he would provide another call as to not waste my time. Jeff called to let me know that all repairs are complete and everything checked out. I returned to Perkins to pick up my vehicle and Jeff explained that they installed a new coolant kit, changed my oil, identified/repaired a small nail in my tire, updated my computer, repaired the recall and completed a 20 point inspection and everything is green. He then escorted me to the cashier where I received the same great customer service as I received from the service department. Although, most of the work was covered under warranty, their prices are competitive if not the best in town. I wish Perkins was closer to my house but the commute is worth the service I received! I have already and will continue to recommend Perkins Motors to anybody looking for a mechanic! More

Perkins Dodge - fair and honest My experience at Perkins Dodge is and has been excellent. I bought my car there and have it serviced there when I don't do the work myself. I know som My experience at Perkins Dodge is and has been excellent. I bought my car there and have it serviced there when I don't do the work myself. I know something of auto mechanics and the checks they do find things that actually need attention and are not come ons for the legendary "engine flush" or other big dollar but totally unnecessary services. I'll continue my relationship with Perkins Dodge into the future. More
Bad Service Experience I had a rear seal replaced on my Dodge Avenger for $1,200. Recently it leaked out 2 quarts again. I brought it back in hoping they would be able to I had a rear seal replaced on my Dodge Avenger for $1,200. Recently it leaked out 2 quarts again. I brought it back in hoping they would be able to fix it again. The service person (female) claimed they had never made the repair to my car and claimed they had only looked at the transmission. In fact, they did both. I insisted they did and she suggested I didn't know the difference between oil and transmission fluid... Big difference... Surprising that a female would try to pull the old "get one over on the woman" trick. Had she taken the time to look back through all the service records this conversation would not have gone the way it did. Also, do not buy their service packages if you have low mileage vehicles. I used 3 and they expired. Basically I paid over $100/per oil change on my car and truck. I should have read the fine print that they expire. "My bad" but don't fall victim to it. More
Check Your Owners Manual/ Check your recalls FIRST OF ALL, SALES SEEMS TO BE ALRIGHT, BUT BEWARE OF THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT. One Piece of advice for all people that have no other choice but to FIRST OF ALL, SALES SEEMS TO BE ALRIGHT, BUT BEWARE OF THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT. One Piece of advice for all people that have no other choice but to take your car to the money pit, CHECK YOUR OWNERS MANUAL AND LEARN YOUR SERVICE SCHEDULE. Perkins standard 30k service sold includes changing of all fluids in differentials, t-case, and everything. Cost is increased for customer without need. Chryslers states that an inspection of these fluids are to be conducted and unless something is wrong, (metal shavings, contaminated, etc...) these fluids are not recommended to be changed until later. Parts will overcharge, and every screw or bolt is added to cost. Colorado Springs Dodge and Faircy Boys is a way better alternative to Perkins, Jiffy Lube is a better alternative to Perkins. Perkins main objective is to make money, and they don't care if it hurts their customers. Even if they seem nice, they only have the one agenda. Service writers and techs all get bonuses on upselling service. even if it is not needed. Check your recalls. If you have an R09 recall or a P65 recall, or anything that involves wires, chances are if you got the recall done at Perkins, the recall was done incorrectly and your vehicle is at risk of fire, or failure. Head lamp wiring recalls are not done, they just put a rubber seal on the old wires to make it look as if the recall was actually performed. Warranty work is not always done by certified techs, chances are if you had work done that was warranty, the tech that did the work didn't know what they were doing. Perkins does not push for training in different sections so when there is warranty work to be done, an uncertified tech will do the work and a certified tech will clock the time so on paper it looks like it was done correctly. Also, check your fluids. when they sell you a power steering flush they just empty the reservoir and refill it, they don't actually flush the system. same with coolant. Transmission service and flush. when you are servicing the transmission and replacing filters, you do not need to flush the cooler. a flush is done when the transmission pan is not being dropped. BUT THEY WILL SELL YOU BOTH ANYWAYS Know what you have. Some of the new vehicles have non serviceable transmissions and other components, Perkins will tell you that you need a service and charge you for a service that cannot be performed, even if they tell you the work is done. Check your clips. Normally if the dealership is responsible for breaking a clip or a push pin or a rivet, then the dealership will pay the $6 to replace it. Perkins will either not fix it and there will be parts hanging loose, or charge you for the replacement part. DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH PERKINS MOTOR COMPANY SERVICE DEPARTMENT. THEY WILL DO SHADY WORK, RIP YOU OFF AND CHARGE YOU FOR THINGS THAT ARE NOT DONE AND NOT NEEDED. THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT THEIR CUSTOMERS AND WILL DO EVERYTHING IN THEIR POWER TO GET MORE MONEY OUT OF YOU. More
