Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and for your kind words about the team and lunch—we’re really glad you enjoyed your visit and the tacos! We’re also sorry to hear about your experience with the vehicle wash. That’s completely understandable feedback, and it shouldn’t feel like something is rushed or incomplete. Even small finishing details matter, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention, especially since it’s happened before. We’ll make sure this is shared with our service team so it can be addressed and improved. We truly value your business and hope your next visit is fully smooth from start to finish.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and frustration you encountered with your vehicle following your oil change, as well as for any miscommunication regarding service timing and diagnosis. We understand your concerns regarding the cost of the starter replacement and the credit card surcharge. While surcharges are sometimes applied for card processing, we hear your feedback and will review ways to make our billing more transparent. We also regret that the rough ride issue was not resolved during your visit, and we appreciate your patience as our team worked to diagnose the starting issue. Your experience has been shared with our service management team to help improve communication, service processes, and customer care. We value your feedback and hope to have the opportunity to restore your confidence in our service department.
