The customer came in at the beginning of the month for an oil change. 10 days later she called us on a Saturday stating she had an oil leak. We told her we would cover the tow if it was something we caused. The car was towed here and we found it was leaking from the upper trimming cover and the magnet. It is a common thing that happens on the Atlas due to the oil separator building up to much pressure. We called the customer and she declined the repair at first but then called back and authorized the work. When she came into to pick it up the car, the vehicle had a check engine light on and we found the tech forgot to clear out the old codes from the low oil issue. The codes were cleared and the vehicle is back on the road.

The car is back on the road after me paying $2200 for something that they caused. You can see from their response how they treat customers! No remorse! Then when I asked the guy why they didn’t see this when changing the oil his response was “Maybe they missed it.” Also, from the response, you can see they “forgot to clear the old codes”! Just like they forgot to put the oil cap back on! How are going to “forget” to do something like that but not forget to charge me my money! TERRIBLE SERVICE! Don’t take your vehicle to these liars! And from Friday to Saturday is 8 days, not 10! And on the phone Whitney stated that it was 14 days ago! Just lie after lie!

Your issue was not caused by an oil cap not being put back on. Your vehicle was leaking oil from the upper trimming cover and the magnet. This is an issue that did not present itself at the time that your vehicle was brought in for the oil change.

Serra Volkswagen responded

We value our customers time and greatly apologize for your delay in service. We did have one computer scanner down and the other being used on another vehicle while your vehicle was in the bay. Although there is nothing we can do about the computers, you should have been updated during this time as to the status of your vehicle and when it would be ready. We do agree that we failed on the customer service in this situation and we will strive to ensure that our service advisors keep our customers more informed. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention.
