I am extremely disappointed with the service I received from Rich Grein. As a customer investing over $50,000 in a vehicle provided by Helms Bros, I expected a higher level of professionalism and empathy, More

The client was using one of our loaners while her car service was being performed. The loaner was returned to us with two of the tires blown out due to a pothole. The client was not happy when they were asked to pay for the damaged tires. It was explained to the client that as it would be with any dealership or even a rental company – the person to whom the car is on loan is responsible for the damage done to the vehicle while it is in their possession. We know this to be a normal practice of loaner vehicles, and it was stated in the loaner paperwork that the client signed before taking the vehicle. While we understand that it is distressing to damage any vehicle, especially when it is on loan, the tires still needed to be replaced by the person responsible for the damage.

This review was posted to address Richard Grein’s unprofessionalism and inability to handle conflict in a professional, respectful and EMPATHETIC manner. As a manager handling customer service, a higher standard of empathy is expected. Nowhere during the conversation OR in this review did I mention that I was not responsible for paying for damages. That is common knowledge that the driver is responsible for paying. Throughout the conversation, I was requesting for a greater discount to be honored due to the dealership’s oversight in failing to inspect the loaner vehicles tire pressure adequately and providing a vehicle with above-average tire pressure. You are putting your customers at risk and your business at legal risk for providing a loaner with a greater tire pressure than recommended. During the conversation, Grein himself even acknowledged the appropriate PSI for a CLA. Irrespective of the loaner situation that this response is fixated on, as a manager, it is Richard Grein’s utmost responsibility to treat a customer with respect and understanding, instead of belittling their concerns and degrading them. Instead of solely fixating on the topic, he should focus on his demeanor and how he handles conflicts with customers. These high-value customers are what provide Helms Bros business and even the slightest bit of disrespect and nonchalance towards a customer can greatly impact business. This response itself proves the negligence of the company and Grein’s inability to empathize with customers. I no longer recommend this dealership to anyone.
