My three-year-old jeep had a transmission problem just before it left warranty I took it in and they had to replace most of the transmission because it had cracked gears they told me and something was lea before it left warranty I took it in and they had to replace most of the transmission because it had cracked gears they told me and something was leaking .....three weeks after I got it back from the transmission being replaced the clutch blows and it's two days out of warranty I took it to them and the service manager who's name is Anthony called it wear and tear and told me 2000 to fix it ..... needless to say my opinion of Anthony is not good (arrogant xxx)...So I had it towed again to a reputable repair shop that would fix it for 400 less and the bonus was I didn't have to give this horrible dealership my money.... A day after I have my jeep towed from the dealership to a reputable repair shop I got a call back finally from the GM of the dealership seemingly to rub salt in the wound of my broken down jeep because he was 100% useless he told me that it was probably my fault for riding the clutch and it doesn't matter to him that I have bought two jeeps for $75,000 from that dealership what mattered was that they were not paying for it ..... well I don't understand was that I already knew they weren't paying for it at that point because I had already had my jeep towed away so I don't understand why he would've even called me at that point other than to be an arrogant xxxxxxx Because he had me on speaker phone and I could barely understand him and he had that Anthony sitting there with him so I feel as though the call was to have a laugh at my expense .....HOW UNPROFESSIONAL.....I hope the owner of this dealership reads this review and realizes what trash he has working there..... DON'T shop there More
I have been to this location twice. First time they gave me the run around with prices, the sales man was not very savy and the "manager" was an xxxxxxx and was not in his intentions to make a sale. Today I me the run around with prices, the sales man was not very savy and the "manager" was an xxxxxxx and was not in his intentions to make a sale. Today I decided to give it another shot because the car my wife want they have it. I told the sales man upfront give me the prices of the cars I ask for and then we deal with everything else. So the one I was interested in the sales man showed me a price of 23000 and then the manager came and said it was 25000 and when I told him that that was not the price I was given he said (the manager) that is a sales strategy to advertise a lower price to attract customers because of the competition but the real price was higher .. erm.. that is false advertisement and is not legal but he does not care and so he expressed it. We talked about my trade in, the Kelly blue book gives them a value of 8000 but he was only going to give me 5500 after I fought he increase it to 6500 and began to mouth trash my car which is cleaner and nicer than any used car they have with upgrades done to it that are not in the value of Kbb. Business is not bad due to competition or economy it is because of the employees running the place and the owner of this location should do something about it unless he/she is just like the employees then good luck.

Had to give them 1 star only because I couldn’t give them zero stars. This used to be a very good dealership. Now I wouldn’t buy or have service done on bike through this dealership . Service department i zero stars. This used to be a very good dealership. Now I wouldn’t buy or have service done on bike through this dealership . Service department is terrible. Bought 2019 Ram Rebel dec 2018. The engine has had issues since the third day I owned it. One year later they still can’t get it fixed. It spends weeks at a time there get it back still same problem. Every time you crank it sounds like someone is killing an animal. Can’t seem to fix the AC either. Had break issues and all sorts of recalls. The “Jacksonville Package “ where they tint your windows and put Nitrogen in the tires is a massive rip off. They have re-tinted the windows three time now. Nitrogen doesn’t fluctuate the way regular O2 does with temperature changes. Lived in SC for 9 years where we had nothing but nitrogen in our tires because of the cold. First time it got cold tire pressure dropped like a rock. Took it back told them think someone made a mistake. I paid for nitrogen and these tires have O2. Got lots of apologies. They second time it happened that’s just fraud. They tried to explain that your tire pressure would still have big swings with the weather. Looked at the guy said you must be an idiot. In that’s the case why would you pay to have nitrogen? Couldn’t provide an answer. My repose was you use nitrogen to provide a stable consistent air pressure regardless of air temperatures. I had nothing but nitrogen in my tires for 9 years in SC never experienced these types of swings. So reality is they are committing fraud. Easy way to extra cash off the sale. The new line from service is let us get you out of the truck and into a new one. Are you kidding me? Beware stay away. More
UNETHICAL DEALERSHIP...DO NOT BUY FROM THEM!!!!!! Bought a brand new 2020 Ram Rebel(60,000$)and within a day the U connect was not working When I brought it back to be fixed they ( service technici Bought a brand new 2020 Ram Rebel(60,000$)and within a day the U connect was not working When I brought it back to be fixed they ( service technician , service manager and assistant manger)freely admitted that they were aware of the problem with this system and that I would have to wait 3 months for possibly a potential fix. They refused to give me a new U connect system or replace the truck. When asked why they would sell a vehicle that had potential problems and not disclose that .. they stated unless there is a recall they don't have to tell the customer up front and blamed everything on Chrysler I still have no resolution after almost 2 months and the owner Ken Kovacs of the dealership does not have the guts or class to even communicate with me. He hides behind his assistant mangers who have been useless More
A week of requests and NOTHING happened. Conner Marshall is a internet sales person. I asked him for a price, a sales quote, specific pictures of anything that was not perfect on a $40000 suv Conner Marshall is a internet sales person. I asked him for a price, a sales quote, specific pictures of anything that was not perfect on a $40000 suv. I have received nothing. He has texted and asked the same questions over and over. Do you have a trade, do you want to finance, where do you live? I asked multiple times for specific things and he has provided nothing..,,horrible experience for a cash buyer from 7 hours away but at least he has time to make a stupid video on the web site about himself. What a joke! More
WORST EXPERIENCE EVER! Worst dealership in Jacksonville, do not trust them!! They are extremely shady, my husband went in last week bought a vehicle signed all the paperwork Worst dealership in Jacksonville, do not trust them!! They are extremely shady, my husband went in last week bought a vehicle signed all the paperwork, done deal. The car was his and he took it home. He gets a call today from them saying there was one more document he needed to sign. They wouldn’t disclose what the document was over the phone, so my husband went up there and when they handed him the document, they had completely changed the agreement that was made the week before. The rate was raised, there was no warranty and the payments would not be deferred as they were going to be before. My husband declined this new agreement, seeing as how this was not what he agreed too last week when he purchased the vehicle. They took the car back and returned his car he traded in and the dealership didn’t even have to decency to wipe off the sticker residue left on his old car. I would never recommend this place to anyone!!! What a terrible experience! More
Check Vehicle for Damage Before Leaving Service Dept If we could, would give the dealership Service Department a no star rating. Had a recall on our 2019 Dodge RAM after having it for only two months. If we could, would give the dealership Service Department a no star rating. Had a recall on our 2019 Dodge RAM after having it for only two months. Scheduled for service and had to leave overnight. After we picked up the truck, did not notice until we got home that the passenger window was cracked. Called the Service Department and left messages for almost a week before we received a return call. Took the truck back to the Service Department and the Service Manager would not have the window fixed. Due to our insurance deductible, we are stuck with a bill of almost $400 to replace the window. Needless to say, we are very disappointed with the dealership Service Department and will not take our vehicle back to this dealership for service. So, if you have your vehicle serviced, make sure you check it over very carefully to make sure there is no damage before leaving the dealership. More

LIARS promised to EVAC & RECHARGE a/c & left me with HOT A/C April 17, 2019 I brought my 2014 Dodge Charger into Jacksonville Chrysler Jeep Dodge TODAY (I had appt) at 11am because my a/c was losing cool in April 17, 2019 I brought my 2014 Dodge Charger into Jacksonville Chrysler Jeep Dodge TODAY (I had appt) at 11am because my a/c was losing cool in the right zone and all of the a/c was warming up during a minute or two of idling. Even though I STILL had very cold air on the left side, I could tell on hot days that the right side was losing cold air output. I also had to get a recall fixed (takata airbag) and an oil change. I had just replaced the condenser on this car 6 months ago at another Dodge dealer and I had a 2 year warranty. That repair cost was almost $1400.00. I had paid $106.95 then for a diagnostic (Sept 18') to determine what was wrong. When they told me it was the condenser. I had no choice but to pay to get it fixed which I did. So here it is 6 months later, and my car had the same symptoms, right zone losing cold air and during idling making all air vents go warm. I had a 2 year warranty on the a/c recent repair, so I was eager to have Dodge look at it. I had 95% Left / 90% right cold air when I pulled into the service area. When I met with the service advisor "Curtis", he practically fell all over his self to make sure I understood that a "replaced compressor warranty" would not cover a condenser if it was bad. I pointed out that the compressor was not what was replaced, it was the condenser. He then made sure I understood that if the compressor was bad, that that would not be covered by a "replaced condenser warranty". I just said "I'm aware of that." (also aware he was setting up the coming "sale", do they make commission?) Then he tells me that the diagnostic to determine the leak is $250. I asked him why, I just paid $106.95 for the same thing 6 months ago. He said: "Because thats 2 hours of labor and they have to EVAC AND RECHARGE the system." I reluctantly agreed and signed the paper authorizing the test. Curtis calls me around 4:15pm to let me know that they have discovered that the problem is the "evaporator" and the cost to fix it is $2175.00. I would be paying $3773 for 2 a/c repairs in 6 months! I declined to have the repair made. When my car was ready, i returned to the dealership. Curtis and I talked about the fact that I have had 3 air condition components fail in a 6 month period, the condenser, the blower fan and now the evaporator, all within 6 months. I could not/would not agree to the repair, so I paid the $250 for the diagnostic, thanked Curtis and left. I got in my car and started it up. What was previously cold air coming out the vents (95% left side/90% right side) was now ALL hot air. I gave it a minute or two to be sure, but no, it was not cold at all. I go back in the dealership and tell Curtis I have no cold air. He was ready with his response (all seemed planned to me) and he said: "yeah the tech said that the freon was all just about gone, so its couldn't be very cold". How could he have the answer to a question I had not asked yet? And if that is the case, don't you think they should have told me I am leaving with NO a/c at all?? This was a LIE because I had still had 90-95% cold air coming from the vents. Only the right vent was less cold by 10%. I said "NO." It was very cold when I got here, only the right side was a little warmer which is exactly what I said to you earlier. I said: " well that's not gonna work! I came in here with cold air for a leak test and I expect to leave here with the same level of cold air I had when I came in here. Plus the problem started a week ago and I was just now able to get in here today, so it must be a very slow leak." He said I'll go check with the technician. He leaves and comes back and says; "he is telling me that the "machine" (the R1234 machine) that evacs and recharges car a/c systems, "will not put freon back into a car that has a leak".(!) I say; "Then you'll should have told me THAT! Then he says "the EPA regulates that". Yeah right, they regulate the machine IN your shop. BS. MORE LIES. I know this is a BLATANT LIE because 6 months ago when I went to the other Dodge dealership, they actually FILLED up my car with R1234 WHILE IT WAS LEAKING because the condenser part had to be ordered and it would take a few days for it to come in. I tell Curtis; "You'll promised to EVAC & RECHARGE my system and you're sending me out of here with HOT air only! That's not going to work and I'm going to need to see the Service Manager." Curtis said they are gone for the day. I say then "I will need to see the General Manager." He just said "ok". I thanked him and went to find the General Manager but they just gave me the run around and put me in touch with a guy from "finance". I was so appalled with the service they just gave me & then try to pass me off to some finance guy, I turned around to walk out and as I walked passed the showroom and while raising my voice I said: "If you'll don't want to help me, I will find someone who will!!".... and... you can take you ****k*** Charger and shove it up your ***!! There were at least 10 customers in there and E V E R Y B O D Y heard what I had to say as I calmly walked out. I will never go back and I will never buy another Dodge. This is absolutely ridiculous on a $250 diagnostic a/c "test" to be told they will "EVAC & RECHARGE" the system and then leave you with a hot a/c and blame it on a "machine". They are trying to FORCE me into a $2200 repair and i resent it. They are so corrupt, the mechanic even had the nerve to put on my service order: "low freon" which is another BLATANT LIE. I will dispute the charge with my CC company and I will file complaints until my fingers bleed. FYI. Buyer beware. Jacksonville Chrysler Jeep Dodge doesn't give a flying flip about you or customer service. Their employees are trained to LIE to make you think you need a repair and at top dollar $$$$. Here's what you need to know: the Freon refrigerant R123 is the new standard for a/c systems in modern cars. It requires a special machine to evac and recharge a/c systems. Even the port to connect to the car was redesigned. I am told the machine cost is at least $10K. 6 months ago when I was looking for alternatives for my $1400 condenser repair, I called Pep Boys, Midas and other secondary repair shops and NONE of them had this new machine yet cause of the cost. That's WHY I was treated like DIRT today, BLATANTLY LIED to, didn't have my a/c recharged as PROMISED-- because Dodge knows you HAVE to come to them for the repair if you want A/C! They do it because they CAN. They think if they rob you of air condition in Florida, you will do just about anything to get it back. Not this time! I will sell the car and NEVER EVER step foot in a dodge dealership again. Here's the thing, even tho I am selling the car which is only 5 years old, that car will ABSOLUTELY have to go back to a dealership if they want the A/C to work. At least until everyone else gets up to speed to level the playing field to give consumers a choice over the DEVILS who troll us today. It a very sad affair what they are doing to people. I will tell every Dodge, Chrysler, Jeep owner I ever meet about their pathetic attempts to get my money & I will do it for the rest of my life. It didn't have to be this way! They could have welcomed me with open arms, acknowledged my a/c warranty, offer to help determine the problem & refill my freon as they should have while telling me I had a evaporator going bad. For God's sake, I had a leak, sooner or later it would have run out of freon and I would have been forced to have it fixed. But instead they try to manhandle me and all they got was a lost customer & a LIFETIME of bad publicity over a few measly bucks. PATHETIC. More
