Once I got the appointment made, it was very easy. The staff was wonderful and very helpful. My problem was making the appointment. I received several emails letting me know that it was time for me The staff was wonderful and very helpful. My problem was making the appointment. I received several emails letting me know that it was time for me to bring my car in; however, I had a terrible problem trying to make my appointment. At first I tried online by clicking the link in the email. One of the links stated that it no longer works. Then I tried calling. The operator answered and transferred me to the Service Department, where it just kept ringing until it went back to the operator. She transferred me back and it happened again. The next time the operator transferred me into a Service Advisory’s voicemail, which stated it was best to send him a text message and he gave his phone number to text. However, he only gave his phone. number once and said it quite quickly. If they are going to give a phone number it should be stated twice and said slowly and clearly. Needless to say, I gave up on making my appointment over the phone. I was going to try once again online. I finally got a link where I had to answer several questions. I could only get so far on the questionnaire and it was like I could get down to the bottom of the screen to go to the next. Because I read all of my emails on my phone, that was what I was using to try and make my appointment. My son told me to try and make it on my IPad. That was when I finally was able to do it online. My suggestion is that you try to make something that can be used on the smartphone to make the appointment. It was very frustrating and I almost gave up, which means I would have gone somewhere else. Again, once I arrived for my appointment, the staff was very efficient and friendly. More

The sales person did not mention a $899 "dealer service fee" at any time prior to presenting the final paperwork. I noticed it and brought it to his attention. He did not bring it to mine.

Horrible place to do business with. They only care about the monthly quota's. The last mechanic left a tool underneath the hood on my engine and it hit my fan while I was driving.

It takes them a week or two to even look at your car. This has happened twice and the communication is terrible. Never had this experience with any other service department. More
