My passion about cars was drawn out by my grandfather. He would bring me to the local dealership while getting his oil changed. I remember quietly walking through the showroom, staring at the shiniest, newest models, hoping that someone would let me, 6 at the time, drive one. No one did (probably for the better). I started in the automotive industry in 2006. I was excited about meeting new people every day while walking along the rows. I quickly understood that listening to what others are saying is paramount, and quickly moved into management. After a few life changes, I ended up here, at Frank Boucher Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram VW of Janesville. I feel like it's home. I've never been more excited to meet people every day, from everywhere, and hear their stories. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions. We ride with you, every mile!

I wish I could give a glowing review of this dealership, but I cannot. I can say that our sales rep Cameron was nice. We purchased a Certified Preowned 2022 Grand Cherokee 4xe (remember, it’s a CPO with a but I cannot. I can say that our sales rep Cameron was nice. We purchased a Certified Preowned 2022 Grand Cherokee 4xe (remember, it’s a CPO with a 125+ point “inspection”). Sales process was pretty easy, but inordinately long. Hours longer than I’ve spent at other dealerships. Once you sign the papers, they hand you a thumb drive with all your copies. I thought that was a pretty efficient way of doing things, but it makes it so you can’t thumb through your copies. (Is that on purpose?) I Didn’t realize till a few days later at home that the financing paperwork wasn’t included on the drive and they bold faced lied to me during the process to the tune of about $4,000. When speaking with the finance office, I asked in no uncertain terms if it was a Mopar Flexcare Warranty (used those exact words) and was told it was. Shockingly, they lied. It’s an aftermarket warranty where I was charged an additional $1000 for a “Auto Armour Screen Coating” over and above the $3,000 aftermarket warranty. Got in touch with Auto Armour to see what the product actually was and while chatting with them, we came to the conclusion that it was never even applied. I tried calling the dealer to cancel both products since they weren’t what I asked for and of course got thrown into some random VM box. Left a message, waited 24 Hrs - No call. Left another message and then sent a message to them using the form on their website. Received a reply from Ryan Arkens the Sales Manager, he said that he appreciated that I reached out before leaving an online review and that “I’ll have finance reach out via email to go over specifics today” well, that was 5 days ago, you blew it Ryan. During the wait, I’ve left 2 more messages and my wife left another. We’ve been ghosted ever since we signed the papers. Called the lender to make sure that the numbers we were given at the dealership matched what the lender had, luckily they matched. After owning it for a couple of weeks now I realize that Boucher doesn’t “Inspect” their CPO’s too well. How you don’t know a CPO doesn’t have working HEAT, I’ll never know. I swear Stevie Wonder did the inspection. No heat, broken cupholders, no working front park sensors, a buzz from the passenger door (there is a TSB on it), Service HV warning light has come on, TPMS system flaky. Those are just things that have jumped out at me, I haven't gone searching for issues. It already has an appointment for service at another dealership, I could only imagine what they’d screw up if I had it serviced there. This was my first, and last, purchase from a Boucher Group Dealership. More
