The problem has been the Leadership. No one accepts Responsibility. It was suggested I sell the set off Tires and Rims to makeup my Loss. Tires per Discount Tire were damaged due to Burn Outs. I ordered new Stock Tires and Rims. These tires made a Huge Differance. Today was the First Day my Wife Rode in the truck. She noticed the Vibration. I tapped the Brakes, it went away, also upon applying the Brakes, the Shutter or Vibration gets worst. Am Replacing the Brake Pads on Friday. Dealership Bragged about these Brakes. So why did it fail During Test Drive? I had to return, 1.5 miles was my Test Drive. Per Service and Sales something got hung up. Why? Truck thou Carfax Report is quite Nice. It also showed 2 things that I did not catch. Per Chevrolet, the Transmission Service suggested at 45,000 miles was Not Done. Carfax does show a Transmission Service way before 20,000 miles. Dealerships should have seen this before bragging on this Report, or that it had New Brakes, and 1 New Tire. I did Request they return my down payment. Sales points to Service, service points right back to sales. Per Discount Tire, it was suggested I also look into suspension. Mikes does not justify this, unless it was driven wrong. Transmission Service before 20,000, or idiotic Burn Out could be reason to service the suspension system. It was also Suggested I wait 30 days so my warranty could pick up the cost. This left a very Bitter taste. Then they want to replace the Torque Converter! Transmission shifts fine, wife even noticed this then asked a million questions.

We can meet and talk. But I must let you know like I told them. I do not Trust Step One Automotive Group. They failed me at the GMC Cadillac Buick dealership across the street. This Group here has not done better. Asking I wait 30 days, then sell the damaged tires on Facebook for $2,000. I did list the Rims and 1tire for $800. Giving it till next week then removing the advert.

Thanks for meeting with us. So we’re in sync, shop will do rear brakes (3) time. Like I stated, parts can be defective. Since we’re getting together in Rims and Tires: would you like these old rims and tires back? Shop is also gonna look at Harmonic Balancer, and Transmission Service thou across the street. I should be there no later than 09:00. Thanks again for speaking with us. I have no problem changing the Rating after truck is completely done.

Step One Maserati Alfa Romeo Pensacola responded

This review should not implicate the front desk service staff who are very polite and very professional, but a comment must be posted. About six months ago, I had several issues come up requiring a loaner. More
