Service Above and Beyond Expectations! From my initial phone call to parts to the conversation with the tech, everyone wad very kind and helpful. My problem was identified and fixed whil From my initial phone call to parts to the conversation with the tech, everyone wad very kind and helpful. My problem was identified and fixed while I was there without having to make an appt. And return another day. This dealership is not the closest close to my home but after my initial phone conversation with parts, I went there. As Roy checked me in for service, he discussed with me my service history and confirmed all was still good with my vehicle. This is by far one if the best parts/ service visits I've experienced in awhile. I will definately be doing my service work there from now in. More

Worst car buying experience of my life. I don’t even know where to start, this was hands down the worst car buying experience I’ve ever had at a dealership! If I could give a 0 rating I woul I don’t even know where to start, this was hands down the worst car buying experience I’ve ever had at a dealership! If I could give a 0 rating I would. I found a couple vehicles online and my dad went with me to help me decide and to give me advice. We test drove two vehicles and I decided on one of them. Then we went inside to start discussing buying the vehicle. I wish I never would have walked through those doors! Negotiating the price of the 2016 Jeep Cherokee was absolute xxxx. It was listed on Carfax as overpriced to begin with, so we tried to negotiate in order to get my payments down to where I was comfortable with. After about two hours we finally had it at a price I was reluctantly willing to accept it at, when we told them we were going with our own financing. At this point they completely went back on their offer and said that if I was going with my own financing then the car would be full price again. I understand that they get kickbacks from the companies that they finance through, but back up to full price? My dad ended up talking to the sales manager, Clayton Sanders, because he had a few questions. The sales manager was extremely rude from the start of the conversation and we again went back to talk to the salesman, Mitch. My dad made a comment that after this he was not going to purchase another vehicle there. The salesman, Mitch then went and told the sales manager this and the sales manager came back to Mitch’s desk and rudely told my dad that he no longer wanted to go through with the sale if that’s how he felt! My dad explained that I (his daughter) was the one buying the car, not him, and just because he said that HE would never buy a car there again, was no reason not to sell the car to me. This process took over 6 hours and the way the sales manager talked to my dad and I literally had me in tears by the end of it. The sales manager finally said that he would go through with the sale, and I put $100 down on the vehicle to hold it until Monday when I could call the company I was getting my loan through. I thought about it for the rest of the weekend and decided I did not want to purchase a vehicle from someone who was so arrogant and rude. By Monday I had found the same car, with more options (like heated seats), and less miles at a different dealership for cheaper! Needless to say I went with the other dealership and I have never been happier with my decision. More

Terrible Service, Buyer Beware In March, 2016 I purchased a 2016 Jeep Cherokee fully loaded from this dealership. Jimmy Dowling Was nice and professional when purchasing this car ho In March, 2016 I purchased a 2016 Jeep Cherokee fully loaded from this dealership. Jimmy Dowling Was nice and professional when purchasing this car however this car over the last 3 years has had multiple problems which their service department could never seem to fix. Some of the problems that occurred include the drivers seat moving when coming to a stop or accelerating (supposedly repaired but still occurs), windshield wipers coming loose (after it was supposedly recall repaired), Stop start continuously breaking (4 times in the last 3 years), everything in the car rattling when listening to music, sunroof making awful squeaking noises when opening or closing, engine squeaking noises (supposedly repaired once but it was still occurring when driven after service), service removing parts from my car but not replacing them (such as battery terminal covers). All of this was addressed with service but none was ever actually fixed. At first my service advisor was Mike Corbin. He will lie to you and treat you with disrespect. He will deny a problem exists with the car. He will up-sell service to you, lying that it is recommended service by jeep. I then started working with Roy Shook, who I have found to be respectful and truthful. I also worked with Bill Talbot. He also lies as Mike Corbin does. At one point, he called me to tell me i would have to pay for the loaner car since my car had been repaired since the following morning. He claimed that he left a message stating so but really the voicemail only consisted of him hanging up the phone. He also stated that he texted me that my car was done (did not occur). When I called him on these lies and told him i would not be paying for the loaner, he hung the phone up on me. I called back and spoke to his manager who waived the loaner charges due to bill's incompetence. When I picked up the car, the engine noises were still occurring, the stop start now no longer worked, and the battery terminal covers were removed and not replaced. The final straw for this dealership was when I discovered a water leak in my car that flooded the front and back passenger side carpets. I researched online that there was a service bulletin written 1 month after I purchased this car for this exact problem occurring due to a manufacturer defect where a sealant was not used. I verified that there was no sealant in this area so i took in the car for service expecting them to fix it. I was told that this would not be covered due to my bumper to bumper warranty expiring, even though the cause was a blatant manufacturing defect. At this point I decided that it was no longer worth keeping a lemon-ed car with a service department that was generally incompetent. I will not buy another Chrysler car, especially from this dealership. they do not care once they have your money. Their service and professionalism from most was very bad and not worth the headache.

Disappointed to say the least Spent 85 dollars for something I already knew. My ac doesn't work. Buy in February when I can't check the ac but the dealership wants to say I should Spent 85 dollars for something I already knew. My ac doesn't work. Buy in February when I can't check the ac but the dealership wants to say I should have bought an extended warranty on something that should have been check. It's all good. I will be out for my free oil changes and that will be it. I will not be back out there for anything else or ever buy from there again. I will make sure I let others know as well. Just my experience. Oh wait you guys did offer me a free 5 star car wash on a rainy day. That makes it all better. Manager stated he buys extended warranty on every one of his cars. Understand why if he is buying from there. More

Time Wasted I was contacted several times by this dealership over about a 6 week period, I finally made an appointment, when I got there the person I was supposed I was contacted several times by this dealership over about a 6 week period, I finally made an appointment, when I got there the person I was supposed to meet was too busy to speak to me, you would think after all the contact I had he would have been available, so the sales manager put me with someone else, he asked what kind of vehicle I was interested in, then he asked if I had a trade, I said yes, he then took my keys, I didn't see him again for 45 minutes, I had to go find him, when I did I asked for my keys back told him I didn't have any more time for this, about 3 days later the sales person and sales manager both emailed me, asking what they could help me with, really? After 6 weeks of back and forth conversations with more then one person there they were talking to me as if this was the first time we had talked, never did get a value for my trade or even a price of the vehicle I was interested in ,very unprofessionall will not be going back there again, and I was a return customer my wife and I have bought 1 used car and 2 new ones from them, I think their service has really gone downhill More
Dazzed and blindsided Found a vehicle on their website that I liked. I inquired to its availability, which they said it was. They suggested I make an appointment if I wan Found a vehicle on their website that I liked. I inquired to its availability, which they said it was. They suggested I make an appointment if I wanted a test drive. A date and time was set within a few days of contacting them with my interest. When I showed up they were very busy. I was promptly greeted and well taken care of. This is not a bad review of my salesperson. I test drove the vehicle and was impressed. I expressed my interest to purchase. We talk about the price and haggled a little bit. We came to an agreement with the price. My salesperson got approval from the front desk/management to sell the car to me at agreed price and what payment financing I was comfortable with. I provided my financial info and the salesperson took it to the front to get the paperwork going. Time passed, maybe 30 minutes or more. The salesperson came back and said he didn't know how tell me this, but the car was already sold. I just sat there shocked and dazzed. One minute excited to be buying this car, the next minute disappointed. My salesperson said he asked his supervisors if there if a similar vehicle, at a similar price and similar options that they could offer me. He said that they said NO. No attempt by this dealership was made to see if some other make or model would be a fit for me. I guess they had met their sales quota for the day or month, and it was 30 minutes to closing time. So my two hours of time spent at this dealership boiled down to an explanation and apology that took about a minute and then I was walking out the door in a daze. What had taken place did not hit me until hours later. I will not be returning to this dealership. Purchase from this business with your eyes open. Management only seems to see customers as a number.

Worst Car Purchase Ever Dear CDJ/FIAT, Last week my fiancé and I experienced a very poor situation at Progressive Chrysler Dodge Jeep in Massillon Ohio. I will try and be Dear CDJ/FIAT, Last week my fiancé and I experienced a very poor situation at Progressive Chrysler Dodge Jeep in Massillon Ohio. I will try and be brief but to the point. Tuesday March 5th, my fiancé and I test drove a 2018 Chrysler Pacifica with 37700 miles. Wednesday March 6th, we returned to test drive a used Town n Country and re-test drive the 2018 Pacifica During the same visit on 3/06/2019 we sat down with Salesmen John Kerry to talk numbers and try to come to a purchase agreement on the Pacifica. We were told during this visit numerous times that the price was non-negotiable and that the dealership would not move at all on the price During the initial negotiation a potential trade was purposed, but during talks, my fiancé and I removed the trade as we would be able to afford the Pacifica and retain our trade. With the above understood, my fiancé and I asked if a second key fob and floor mats could be added to deal at no cost to us since there was to be no negotiation on the vehicle price. The Salesmen, John Kerry asked if this was done, would we purchase the vehicle. We said “yes” and signed that we would. After another 10-15 minutes waiting for the answer John Kerry returned and started presenting more numbers and another purchase proposal and then wanted to know if giving us more on the trade was an option after we stated that we were no longer trading in the vehicle. At this point, our question on the key fob and floor mats was not answered. We then asked, what about the key fob and floor mats. We were then given an absolute “no”. Not happening. We were told again that they can’t do anything more on the vehicle. My fiancé and I then decided that to walk and not buy the vehicle. This first visit was very frustrating. At no point did John Kerry give us the impression that he was attempting to help us buy this vehicle. Every request was answered with a curt “No”. We understood that the vehicle was nicely priced compared to similar vehicles. That is why we decided to give up on price negotiation and ask for a second key fob and floor mats. This was again answered with another short and curt “No”, so we left. At this time, we spoke to no one else except for John on this second visit. On Wednesday March 6th, I called and spoke to Jacob Brown, one of the sales managers. I explained to Jacob that we liked the vehicle, a simple yes to the key fob and floor mats and we would have went forward with the purchase. Jacob proceeded to advise that the dealership was losing around $2000 - $3000 dollars on the vehicle and that the price couldn’t be moved. Jacob stated that he also went to the owner of Progressive Auto Group and asked about the key fob. Jacob stated that all they could do to help us out is to give us $100.00 off the retail price of the key fob. He also stated that the floor mats was $500.00 (retail) and that they couldn’t put those into the deal either. Just found out today (a week later), our cost on the all-weather slush mats is $260.00… more lies. Jacob was helpful during this call. But during the call, Jacob stated that if another sales manager (who was not named) would have been at the dealership, they would have not done business with my fiancé and I only because I was questioning the concept that the dealership could not move on the price and that they were losing money on the sale. Having been in the auto sales business, I understand many of the business nuances, finances and budgets. This is not to say that all dealers are the same. But I did mention that there are many ways in which money can be made, and since we were never offered to see the what the dealer purchased the Pacifica at from wholesale, I have no idea if the dealership is losing money or not. But for me to state such things is to assume that I am calling someone at the dealership a liar. That is not the case, rather, it is their word verses what I don’t know. So yes, I am cautious when a dealership says we are losing money on a sale of a vehicle. This is the first time Jacob alluded that they would not do business with someone just because they are cautious of what is being said while not being shown evidence. We agreed to the key fob at a discount and provided the dealership information to proceed to pull credit and line up financing. The next day on Thursday March 7th, I was online to pull the VIN from the sales listing on the dealers’ website. Upon seeing the vehicle, the dealership had lowered the price of the vehicle $320.00!! I promptly called the dealer and left a message with Jacob Brown advising of the price decrease and that we would expect the price decrease to be honored. A phone call was returned a while later by a sales person that we did not work with and they said that that the price would be honored. At this time, I should have asked about the key fob, but did not. When my fiancé and I arrived that evening to pick up the vehicle we were presented with final purchase information. What was missing from the new deal was the key fob. At this point in time this is when the dealership became obstinate, obtuse and created a very hostile environment for us, but I would also imagine for those customers close by who could hear the ensuing disagreement and excuses from the salesman and sales manager at Progressive. At first, John Kerry kept repeating the same excuses, the price drop that happened was a mistake and they were honoring that, but because we were making out better than before, the deal that was agreed upon with the key fob was out. After several rounds of discussing with the how their mistake shouldn’t negatively impact us, we asked to speak to Jacob. When Jacob came over, instead of trying to resolve the issue, he only escalated the situation even further by not honoring what was previously discussed about the key fob. Jacob stated that the price drop was a “Mistake” which I promptly refuted by stating that it was not a mistake and even if so, the dealership’s mistake or automated price drop should not negatively impact us. Jacob continued to deflect and gaslight and trying to make use feel stupid for not understanding why we shouldn’t expect the key fob. Another issue is that the key fob and its removal from the deal was never mentioned, not once, until we arrived. At one point in the conversation with Jacob, he looked at the salesman and asked, “Do you even want this sale”? which the salesman didn’t answer. This goes along with my previous statements that the dealership acted on numerous occasions that they did not want to sell us a car. Because vehicle is what we wanted, we continued to purchase the vehicle but only because it was competitively priced. But the lies of being told that the price was non-negotiable for two days and then for it to drop by “mistake”, and then the key fob being removed the actual sale, we will never return to this dealer. When the sale was done, we weren’t given a thank you, handshake, full tank of gas, a walk through, nothing. We signed a couple pieces of paper and left. What I find asinine is that a key fob and floor mats, when it comes to the dealer, all they are losing is the cost on the parts and the small amount that the technician is paid for programming the key fob. However, numerous times we are coated retail pricing. Yet, I told Jacob that they are only losing the dealership’s cost on the part and only addressed with more excuses. Jacob Brown’s actions and demeanor and his ability to try and deflect on to us the dealerships wrong doing is the worst experience that my fiancé and I have ever had at dealership. We will not return. EVER! More
