I would not recommend this dealership for service. I tried to get my window in the back of my truck fixed because it was leaking. They said I will have to leave my vehicle there for two days for them More

We are sorry to hear you were told that. We do keep a list and normally follow it except for extreme cases. Due to the chip shortage, our inventory has been lower than normal but that issue is improving. We hope you will try to give us another chance to earn your business.

Hello Shannon, We are sorry for the misunderstanding. The vehicle was Step One certified which covers for the first 30 days of ownership. Due to the age and miles on the vehicle, it did not qualify to be Cadillac Certified. If you have any additional questions, please reach out to our Sales Manger, Junior Johnson.

That is absolutely not what was told to me at the time of sale. I was told SPECIFICALLY it was certified pre-owned and was covered for one year on the drive train. It was a selling point that the salesman repeated multiple times. It’s really not about the money to repair the car. It’s about being lied to and then receiving very sub-par service within LESS THAN 90 days of purchase!!

If anyone is contemplating buying a used car from this dealership it needs to be known they do not stand behind their words or their vehicles. I feel pretty confident that this was a known issue and put out on the lot to be sold anyway. I’ve bought many vehicles in my lifetime and never purchased one that was “inspected” by a competent service center and have such issues in such a short amount of time. I run a business and I would have at least offered to repair it at cost, even though, it should have been covered per the salesman, but these guys wanted nothing more than to PROFIT off of it again with absolutely no regard for the customer. These kinds of transactions with the public shows what kind of customer service you can expect from people who really don’t give a xxxx about customer service to begin with. AGAIN LIARS JUST TO MAKE A SALE!

It's bad when the dealership can't fix their own vehicles without trying to upsale then get mad and tell you to come get your vehicle because you won't buy their part. According to the service paperwork didn More
