Lake Wales Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram isn’t just the home of the Low Payment Kings, we are one of many. Our dealership may have first opened in 2013 under our leadership, but Lake Wales Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram is part of a family-owned organization whose roots stretch all the way back to 1966. It was then, over 50 years ago, that Ralph Mahalak Sr. opened his first Dodge dealership in Michigan. Now we have ...

Miss Alvarado, per our discussion at the dealership, we absolutely DID complete the inspection on this vehicle at our reconditioning center and the inspection did NOT note any problem with the braking system. If the braking system was a concern for you after your purchase, we ABSOLUTELY can inspect the brakes as we service nearly all makes and models at our dealership. When the vehicle was taken to Land Rover, you should have contacted us PRIOR to paying $1400 for their recommended repairs. We were never provided with an estimate and also not given the opportunity to confirm the repairs were needed. We would be happy to re-inspect the vehicle for you, and if there was a problem with the brakes, we would repair it for you at our dealership. Please contact me directly to discuss further, general manager, RJ Mahalak.

Mr RJ Based in our last conversation on 02/12/2024, your verbally confirmed the following: vehicle was purchased at FIAT lot; car was bought in 12/2023, the last inspection on MPI was dated 7/2023; Inspection was not completed at your dealer; and you did not inspected the vehicle. In regards of the estimate, you know you indeed saw it, had it in your hands even a video of the damages was presented to you on Monday 2/12/2924. Is extremely troubling to experience such a terrible situation and even traumatic at this time as your lack of honesty, integrity and transparency on selling me a car with bad brakes put my life and my son in great danger, as driving a car with bad brakes is a life or death situation; but this is the least knowledge anybody expected from from a person who runs a dealership. Beyond the horrific experience I had dealing with this issue, the hours I spend trying to get you to checked the brakes, the repairs, the car rental expenses, the time off had to take from my job to deal with you all; the most horrendous is your LACK of Honest, Integrity and Careless attitude to get this issue resolved is incomprehensible.

This is an addendum to my previous review. Just when I thought things could not get worse, I had a flat tire today (no fault of the dealership). When a friend went to change it, there was NO More
