AutoNation Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram and FIAT North Phoenix - Service Center

Unethical Dealership I took my 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee to the AutoNation’s service department on May 26, 2016 to have my front driver seat fixed. I also wanted to receive I took my 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee to the AutoNation’s service department on May 26, 2016 to have my front driver seat fixed. I also wanted to receive one of my free oil changes. Kevin the service advisor requested a tire rotation which I also agreed to have done. I told Kevin my service advisor that my Jeep was under extended warrantee for the seat issue. When I bought my Jeep Grand Cherokee I purchased multiple warrantees to cover the Jeep Grand Cherokee form “bumper to bumper”. In fact, the financial advisor who sold me the service contracts shared with me that if I had any problems with the leather seats including rips, ink marks, wholes, or electrical parts that my warrantee would cover the fixing of the issue of even replacing the whole seat if needed. But I found out over the phone today, according to my service advisor Kevin, the broken front seat was NOT covered under the extended warrantee contract since the issue was a broken part. Therefore either Kevin or the financial advisor who sold me the contract was not telling the truth. Either way over the phone I told Kevin to cancel ALL requested work except for the free oil change. I decided I did not want to do business with an unethical company who would sell me a $45,000 dollar SUV plus extended warrantees and “not honor” their agreement! I asked Kevin to send the shuttle to pick me up at home right away so that I could get my Jeep Grand Cherokee. After 1 ½ hours I called back because the shuttle driver had not arrived. Kevin shared that the driver was in Black Canyon City. I cancelled the request and had a friend drive me to AutoNation to pick-up my Jeep. When I arrive and went to sign the paperwork there was a charge on the invoice for tire rotation. Kevin said the service department did the tire rotation before I called. Kevin did remove the charge from the invoice. The cashier said my car would be outside the waiting room doors. It was not outside the doors at the pick-up area but in the back of the building. I walked to the back of the building to retrieve my car. As I got into my Jeep I notice that they did not wash it as stated they would do with the oil change. I plan on taking my Jeep Grand Cherokee to another ethical dealership to have my front seat fixed and to receive better customer service. My advice to anyone reading this letter on all the social media sites I’m posting this information, is do not do business at AutoNation in Phoenix, Arizona! More

Phoenix Auto Nation Staff Provide Excellent Customer Service In January 2016, I purchased a new 2015 Jeep Renegade. On Friday, May 6, 2016, I contacted Bruce Weiss to get a part for my rear window wiper. Bruce In January 2016, I purchased a new 2015 Jeep Renegade.

People like Bruce makes purchasing and servicing a vehicle at this dealership a very positive experience! More

Worst service department I've ever used Sales is fine, but this is the worst service department I've ever had the misfortune to deal with. The first time I came in, someone stole the I-Pod Sales is fine, but this is the worst service department I've ever had the misfortune to deal with. The first time I came in, someone stole the I-Pod out of my Ram console. I was finally reimbursed, but it went downhill from there. No one meets you when you come at the appointed time. You have to go look them up, and not once has the service manager I was supposed to meet actually been there, so I get shuffled off to someone else, who of course knows nothing about my appointment. Today was the last straw. I made an appointment because the check engine light was on. It is now 8 hours later and my supposed service manager still hasn't called me despite my three calls to him (BTW, no one even answers their phone here!). I have no idea when I'll get my truck back or why the light was on (it's under warranty). I'll never buy here again. More

How to get action After emailing Mayone Nevils mayone.lnevils@fcagroup.com at the Chrysler Corporation Headquarters, the oil burning smell in the cabin of our Fiat 500c After emailing Mayone Nevils mayone.lnevils@fcagroup.com at the Chrysler Corporation Headquarters, the oil burning smell in the cabin of our Fiat 500c is gone! Autonation Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram took good care of us. We will never use the Scottsdale Fiat dealership. They had our car for t days & didn't do a thing to it. They told us there was nothing wrong with our car. Mayone got the Area Vehicle Manager and the Field Engineer and Kelly Scott (Service Lane Manager) involved at the Autonation Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram dealership in Phoenix, AZ and after a couple of hours they got our car fixed!. And so far it is staying fixed. We can't say enough good things about them. Repair problem and fix: Oil was leaking from exhaust manifold studs and did stud removal and installed studs with Loctite and replaced the oil drain plug to fi the problem. Thank you Autonation Chrysler and a special Thank You to Mayone Nevils at the Chrysler Corporation Headquarters, who got the problem resolved. Al and Trish S. More

Avoid if you value honesty and integrity. I had my 2009 Dodge serviced at the service department at AutoNation Chrysler North Phoenix on I17 and Bell Rd due to a recall notice for a faulty tim I had my 2009 Dodge serviced at the service department at AutoNation Chrysler North Phoenix on I17 and Bell Rd due to a recall notice for a faulty timing chain and timing chain cover. I picked my car up when service was finished and before I arrived at my house less than 2 miles away the check engine light illuminated. With the major work entailed in replacing the timing chain and cover it is no coincidence that the check engine light came on before arriving home, someone messed up. I returned the car back to the service department and requested that the check engine light be investigated and repaired. A different service manager than the one I had dealt with before called to tell me that the check engine light is not related to the recall service as it is emissions related and that it would cost $420 to repair. I requested that they prepare my car for me to pick up so that I can get a second opinion. Before leaving with my car I requested a quote which they were hesitant to provide. I insisted that if they are recommending repair that they should be willing to back it up with a hard copy quote. They provided me with a discharge paper and hand wrote that the repair would cost $250 which is curious because I was quoted $420 on the phone. After leaving the dealership I purchased a diagnostic device which confirmed that the check engine light is emissions related and I simply reset the indicator and the light has never come back on again. It certainly appears to me that the dealership could have taken simple trouble shooting steps to remedy the issue rather than quoting me an unnecessary charge. Further, considering all these circumstances, it appears that the service department intentionally caused the check engine light to illuminate prompting my return to afford themselves the opportunity to quote me for an unnecessary charge. Either way you slice it the service department at this dealership demonstrated incompetence or malicious intent that would have unnecessarily costed me $420. I recommend that any consumer that values integrity and honesty stay clear of AutoNation dealerships as these circumstances reflect poorly on the entire chain. More

I took my 2013 Jeep Grand Cherokee in today for my first oil change and after reviewing the invoice I discovered that Mopar Part# 68101997AA was the motor oil used for the oil change. A cross reference of t oil change and after reviewing the invoice I discovered that Mopar Part# 68101997AA was the motor oil used for the oil change. A cross reference of this part number shows to be 5W-30 oil and not the 5W-20 oil that is recommended by Jeep for the 5.7L Hemi. When I called the dealership to ask why they used 5W30 instead of 5W20 I was told that they only have one "bulk oil" container and sometimes it has 5W-20 and sometimes it has 5W-30 oil, depending on the time of year, and that all standard oil changes are done from the bulk oil container. I was then told that they do have 5W20 in bottles but the customer would need to pay more if they choose to have oil put in their car from bottles. What? So a customer would need to pay more to have the correct viscosity that is recommended by the manufacturer? More

i've been lied to, time after time. they keep working on my car, and are not able to fix the many problems. i've called the manufacture, and doesn't qualify for lemon law? ok, you can't fix it, now what? my car, and are not able to fix the many problems. i've called the manufacture, and doesn't qualify for lemon law? ok, you can't fix it, now what? main problem, is engine tends to run-away. and they call that a safety feature? engine rattles like crazy and other issues like trans shifting issues and a grinding sound while driving and on and on. i've been asking the dealer, and dodge to fix it, or stand behind the product, and neither has happened. i'm stuck with a dangerous car and they can't/won't fix it. i've had one car crash because of the run-away engine and still they said it's a safety feature. ok it's a safety feature, then why have we spent so much time trying to address a safety feature. don't buy a dodge, don't go to this dealer, don't do it. i spent 30 grand trying to be a dodge lover, and yet i'm not. 2010 dodge journey is a dangerous car, a dangerous car. my wife won't drive it. i thought about trading it it, but the next dealer didn't want the car because of the run-away issue, and the crash put me way upside down. i'm stuck with a dangerous car and now one else wants it including dodge.

I am very familiar with my vehicle and what to expect from a service center.  I took it in for repair pricing and to discuss options. I spoke with Brian Abbott in Dodge Service and have never been treate from a service center.  I took it in for repair pricing and to discuss options. I spoke with Brian Abbott in Dodge Service and have never been treated so poorly and was personally verbally attacked by him. He was so arogant, he got in my face and yelled and began to argue with me.  I left the dealership and immediatly called to make a complaint with no results. The sales manager i originally spoke to told me it was an internal matter and he forwarded me to the service director John Occoner.  It has now been 5 days and the director for service still has not contacted me or any other company representative. I will never deal with that company or Power Dealer again! More

Me and my husband went to this dealership for servicing our 2005 Dodge Neon. We knew our oil needed to be changed, the battery was about due for replacement, the brakes were squeaking, and the car alarm wa our 2005 Dodge Neon. We knew our oil needed to be changed, the battery was about due for replacement, the brakes were squeaking, and the car alarm was going of for no reason. We figured we'd bring it to the dealership to get everything looked at by the dodge professionals instead of a repair shop, plus we had amazing service over at chapman Hyundai every time we brought our elantra in. This place was horrible. First off, i looked them up online, and on their own website they had a link to schedule an appointment online, that lead to a error, webpage does not exist. This didn't bug me at the time, mistakes on websites happen, and it wasn't that hard to call them. Scheduled the appoint and then we showed up. First thing we noticed was how unfriendly the staff was, no one there wanted to talk to us, and when they did it was as if the communication was horrible between employees. First, when we dropped off the car they told us they wouldnt even try to fix the car alarm and didnt suggest anyone to gonto. Theyntold us to look it up online. We called firestone within minutes and though firestone didnt repair them, theyngave us the name and number of a place that did. Then, we explained what we wanted them to check and do one the car, and they said it would be half an hour. We were impressed by this initially, it seemed like fast service. One hour later, they said the car was done. We figured the work would take about an hour or so, so the extra time didn't bug us so much yet. We paid and found out they had only done an oil change. They told us they'd talk to us about the car inspection when they brought us our car. It took them half an hour to find our car, and a lady also waiting for her finished and paid for car said that she always has to wait at least half an hour before they find her car. Once they brought us our car they did not speak with us about the inspection at all. We were still stumped as to why they didn't fix the breaks or replace the battery. The paperwork they gave us indicated that those items needed to be replaced, along with other problems we would have liked to have them fix or at least talk to us about. No one there was very helpful, and we were getting fed up having to wait an hour and a half for an oil change we could have gotten at jiffy lube in 20 minutes. They did charge us about $4 less on the oil change than at jiffy lube, so their prices it seemed were better, but no worth it at all. Right after we got home we immediately called up friestone and told them what happened and we scheduled an appointment with them. Next time we're just bring it to firestone the first time. More
