Good Afternoon Kristie, Thank you for taking a moment to reach out to us, we are sorry to see your note! Please know that if your experience was anything less than exceptional that was certainly not our intent. I spoke with our Service Manager as well as the Cadillac Certified Technician that worked on your vehicle to gather some additional information regarding your Escalade visit. Just to give you a little more insight as to how our process works, when we receive a service driver assist message concern our technicians must follow a documented diagnostic process from Cadillac which includes relearning the calibration of your front camera with the rest of the system. In the case of your Escalade, our Mechanic attempted to complete this process on two separate occasions, and it failed each time. In our experience when this happens it is typically due to aftermarket front windshield glass or a hardware failure with the camera itself and our Tech noted that the front windshield on your vehicle was not the factory GM Part. Due to the complexity of modern integrated safety systems, sometimes even the smallest tolerances can be problematic for consistent operation and we have observed similar results with aftermarket glass many times in our Collision Center. In the event of a repeated learning failure, if we attempt to open a technical case with Cadillac, one of the first questions engineers will ask our technician is whether the factory windshield has been replaced and if so, is it a factory GM Part. It is great to hear you are back in action if your other dealer was able to complete this process successfully, but please keep this in mind in the event you encounter the problem again down the road. We have a great group of people here at Val Ward that are all here to help and the last thing we would want for any of our customers is to feel taken advantage of as you noted. If one of our Service Managers can help you, we would be happy to speak with you at your earliest convenience at 239.939.2212. Thanks again and have a great close to your week. -Val Ward Cadillac

As a gesture of good will for an existing client, we have tried to help Mr. Skok by reimbursing for the repair costs in South Carolina. He was given $500.00 which was more than the dealer charged. In addition, shortly thereafter we met and Mr. Skok was given a future service credit of $1000.00. Please note if the problem Mr. Skok had in South Carolina was present when he left the dealership he would not have made it out of town. As a 14-year-old vehicle with approx. 176,000 miles, a vehicle of this age and miles is going to have repairs. Despite our efforts he has written to every level of dealership and Cadillac Management. In the best interest of Mr. Skok and Val Ward Cadillac he needs to find another facility to have any future repairs completed and we must at this time revoke the $1000.00 offer towards future repairs. -James Gedra General Manager Val Ward Cadillac
