Can I give 0? - Marilyn
Can I give 0???My review is concerning service (or lack thereof). I had a problem with my driver seat electronics. I had stopped at a drive through place, and pulled over to eat my burger. When I tried to put my seat back, the electronics of that seat went crazy. The entire seat went all the way back, and the seat back went all the way flat. I looked under the seat, but, of course did not know how to fix whatever was wrong. By coincidence I was about a mile away from Feldman, my dealer, and drove there immediately. the service people took a quick look, said it looked like something had come unplugged, and got it back working. I was very happy and complimented them on their quick responsiveness and expertise... Until about 3 weeks later, when it happened again. I had had a doctor's appointment at a hospital downtown and after the valet had moved my seat to fit him, I tried to reposition for me again. Same crazy seat movement. I pulled into a parking lot, and tried to look for the little "plug" that may have come loose again, but there was no little plug that I could just replug, just a bunch of wiring. I must have moved the wiring around in such a way, that whatever short was happening was reconnected and I was able to drive the 25 miles home OK. I needed an oil change and a tire check a couple weeks later, and wanted them to check out and fix the seat problem. No problem on the oil and the tire, but the seat required an appointment, and the closest one I could get was in November (3 months away). After expressing my outrage at the delay, I made the appointment, which I finally went to November 4. OK, I had to leave the car, but they didn't know when they would get to it. Well, I argued, what's the use of an appointment then? They had no idea where I was in the queue, but they would look at it in 24-48 hours. When 24 hours was up I called to see if they knew when it would be seen, and was finally told I was 10 cars out. BUT, even though it looked like several days away, I couldn't have my car, because it had to be on their lot (just sitting there) while I had to get rides from people. I said, they could call me the day before it was to be seen and I could bring it back. NOPE, had to be on their lot. Why? I asked, "that's the way it's done." So, I'm picking up my car tomorrow and looking for a new dealer. I've been driving Chrysler minivans for 35 years, from 1989 until now, and was planning on a new one next year. Well, with their dismal "service" it won't be at Feldman. Don't like to play the "old lady" card, but having an almost 80 year old in an empty parking lot downtown trying to figure out where that little plug was, and just by chance finding some magical connection, doesn't look good. I'm always afraid to change my seat position when driving and can't let anyone else drive my car just in case. It's a hit or miss proposition when I try to change position. Sometimes I feel it starting to go whacky, and sometimes it works fine. I have to explain to valet about not moving my seat every time I go to my appointments (every 2-4 weeks) and hope they see the big note I have to leave, just in case.
