Bought a 2011Chrysler Town and Country from Dan Goben. - MartinLund59
Bought a 2011Chrysler Town and Country from Dan Goben. The first day I drove it home the tire indicator light came on, then the engine light came on. I called Jake to let him know this. I had the code checked and it was the cam sensor bank one. I called Jake back and informed him, he told me to take it to my mechanic, I did They got the same code and suggested that it could also be an oil issue since that came up as well. So we did an oil and filter change because if the wrong oil or filter was on orin the vehicle it could cause the code. So I paid for that and the engine light still came on. Called Jake and told him I was taking it to the Chrysler Dealership in town, however it was a few days before I could get it in. They then confirmed the code and replaced the cam sensor as well as the sensor for the tire light. Jake paid for the cam sensor but refused to pay for the tire sensor. It took a week to get the vehicle back because I had to wait for parts. After getting it back several days later the engine light came on again. It was the cam sensor again for bank two. Called Jake no call back. Got the cam sensor cleaned, paid for that and went on my way. Shortly afterwards the engine light came on again. Code showed it was the cam sensor bank two again. Called Dan Goben no help. Further diagnostic testing revealed that it was the cam phaser and the valve cover gasket was leaking. Had that work done. Had all repairs done in Marinette where I live because it wasn't safe to drive to Green Bay to get them done. After I had the vehicle running well I drove to the dealership in Green Bay with my repair paperwork and talked to Jake. He told me, " you bought a used vehicle and don't expect to put money into it". "I just bought a $30,000 boat and had to put money into it, I am not going to do anything for you at all. I spent $1,500 on repairing a vehicle I brought from Dan Goben Cars. If they actually inspected the vehicle why would upon another dealership inspection find that the valve cover gasket was leaking? Something that would be easily visible upon there inspection. Now it looks like I need breaks. My experience with Dan Goben Cars has been not only expensive but very very disturbing. Buyer beware if your shopping anywhere near there.
