Very rude to comment such things when I have been a repeat buyer. More

While the tire was repaired, it was explained that due to the location on the tire that was repaired, the integrity of the tire was potentially denigrated. I was offered a couple of options, and I chose the one I felt was in my best interest. The expertise of Bill and Mel was very helpful in making my decision. Thank you. While the tires were being installed, I had the opportunity to review a couple of vehicles, in which I had an interest with Wayde. Wayde had helped me with the purchase of our Honda. More

Car trouble in Ankeny. We drove our Odessy to Ankeny to meet our daughter and family who flew from California to attend a family reunion the next day, June 23. Unfortunatel We drove our Odessy to Ankeny to meet our daughter and family who flew from California to attend a family reunion the next day, June 23. Unfortunately we experienced loss of engine power. I called the Des Moines dealership, they were completely disinterested in assisting in any way since it was 4:20 on Friday afternoon. They offered help in a week. I noticed the Ames dealership was just 3 miles further, I talked to Bill Smith, as I thought we might have to purchase a car as there were no car rentals available for our family of seven. He was so kind, thoughtful, and encouraged me to have the van towed to the leadership's service center in the morning, even recommending a reliable tow truck. With his help we were able to get our van serviced in a timely manner and get us back on the road and to our reunion in Ankeny on time. We are so grateful for the time he spent with us, showing us and test driving with us the vans we thought we would be purchasing. We were fortunate that your excellent, capable service department was able to help us. Everyone we encountered was friendly and accommodating. I was so happy our 8 passenger van was repaired! At our reunion we shared our great experience and recommended your dealership. Thank You! More
