Dear Elizabeth, Thanks for letting us know of your disappointment. We don’t set out to frustrate customers. Your input gave us time to research what occurred. There are a few things happening here. First, you did not purchase your vehicle from us. We will absolutely repair your vehicle; however, we offer VIP customer service which prioritizes our customers who purchased their vehicles from us. Second, we scanned your vehicle’s computer on 6/2 and identified a “cold start misfire” code, which requires an “A” technician to repair. One of our “A” techs was next available to work on your vehicle on or possibly before 6/4. Third, a loaner vehicle or alternate transportation would be available to you under your 3-year/36,000 mile warranty. As of this time, the earliest a loaner vehicle was available was 7/11. Fourth, there are possible situations where you may be subject to a diagnostic fee, including if the repair is not covered by your warranty. Ethan was simply conveying this to you. To be fully transparent, we require our personnel to convey this to customers. It was not meant to scam you out of any money. Fifth, I’m sorry you believe your vehicle reeked of greasy fast food when you picked it up. Our employees are prohibited from using customer vehicles for anything other than their intended repair. We did not use your vehicle for anything besides that. We wish you the best. Sincerely, Phil Wolhar Chief Marketing Officer East Hills Auto Group pwolhar@easthillsjeep.com

Dear Mr. Saeed, It is unfortunate that Chevrolet inventory has gotten thin worldwide, caused by the chip shortage stemming from pandemic cutbacks. We would have liked to have sold you a vehicle. I’m sorry we could not agree to terms. We wish you the best. Sincerely, Phil Wolhar Chief Marketing Officer East Hills Auto Group pwolhar@easthillsjeep.com

Dear Mr. Lonnie, I’m reading what you wrote and it does not make sense. If you got a nail in your tire AFTER the tire rotation – as you wrote -- then of course it would be in the same tire 3 weeks later, unless you had a subsequent tire rotation. Our technician performed your tire rotation, but no one can predict what happens when you drive off. From a different angle… if you got a nail in your tire BEFORE your tire rotation, we presume you would let us know about the nail and we would have repaired it. There was no nail, so there was nothing to repair. From an even different angle, if you’re suggesting a nail was in your tire due to something we did, why would you wait 3 weeks to let us know? This is a safety concern. And from all the reviews you’ve written on Yelp, it doesn’t seem like you to delay your feelings. But better yet, when you called us yesterday to tell us we didn’t rotate your tires and, “What are you going to do for me?”, why did you reject any apologies and offers to help you as a good faith gesture? Worse, why did you threaten to go online and write negative reviews if we didn’t put a performance package on your truck for a 25% parts discount plus free installation? We'll gladly re-rotate your tires. Just let us know. Sincerely, Phil Wolhar Chief Marketing Officer East Hills Auto Group pwolhar@easthillsjeep.com

Dear Damitamccain, My managers have reported to me that the credit card refund of $500 was processed on April 27th. It can take up to 10 days before credit card companies show the credit on accounting statements. I've asked my team if they emailed you a receipt showing the credit was done by us and they said, "no". I've asked them to change our process going forward to include a receipt sent to customers as soon as credits are processed. I'm sorry for this omission and the frustration you are feeling. Sincerely, Phil Wolhar Chief Marketing Officer East Hills Auto Group pwolhar@easthillsjeep.com

Dear Katelyn, I was sorry to hear that you had left. We offered to you to have your vehicle serviced elsewhere as you may get more satisfaction from their repair. You've said you were upset with our own service department's work and for them not being able to repair your vehicle. Our technicians are saying your vehicle is operating as designed by the manufacturer. In situations where this is the case, our protocol is to invite you to service elsewhere so that you don't get a negative view of the Chevrolet brand. Sincerely, Phil Wolhar Chief Marketing Officer East Hills Auto Group pwolhar@easthillsjeep.com

East Hills Chevrolet of Freeport responded

Dear Leroy, After reviewing your notes in our database, you're right. You were looking for a very specific Colorado that would have to be factory ordered. We thought it best for you to build the vehicle you wanted. Our process is to introduce you to a sales manager who then would introduce you to one of our sales representatives who would then assist you with the build. The sales manager would oversee the build. We have three associates who do this for our company, two of whom were not in the store at the time and the third was sitting with customers upon your arrival. We handled this transition poorly and I realize you were frustrated with the salesperson with whom you ended up meeting. I am having my general sales manager prepare the build out so he can accurately give you the out the door price you've requested. I will then have him contact you. I'm sorry all of this happened. Thank you for letting me know we missed the mark. Hopefully, we can rebuild some trust with you. Sincerely, Phil Wolhar Chief Marketing Officer East Hills Auto Group pwolhar@easthillsjeep.com
