some changes so far I haven't had anything major happen. I am concerned when I got my oil changed done prior to this service there was a message on my paperwork stating that if I didn't get all recommended maintenance performed at that dealership that I could lose that. That is not what's in my contract when I signed it just stated that I had to get the oil changes in state inspection done at that dealership. So we'll see how it goes

when I delivered it. Was told Service manager would call me and that still has not happened at this time. And now I have new rules to get me oil changes and perks I had when I bought my truck but why trust them with it if I am going to be lied to and told the check engine light was on when we got it. Then I am pretty sure I got charged twice for shop supplies due to how they small print things in the receipt. Rating of John is not him just part of the overall. He had little to say except that his tech said the light was already on but he was not aware until I told him. And the video that was sent asking me to approve more work did not mention it. And the service ticket does not mention it.

Repeat response publicly to hide my contact information……
I do not know what you would do now. I spoke with Jay after writing this message. I spent the rest of yesterday working on the truck myself and got it cleared. I had to go elsewhere and get the code read which was U11E9 and C2206-00. Couldn’t even get that done there as you told me you did not have anything that could connect to my truck since it is not a Chevy. Still not sure fully how my priorities for life that I got with my truck when you company was priority works except I was told I can get my free oil change and inspection there so long as I agree to let you all other work on my truck. That makes no sense seeing I was just told that you have no ability to work on my truck since it is not a Chevy. I disconnected the AGS and reconnected the light has been back off since. As Jay said he watched the video also and there was no mention of the CEL at that time. There is no mention in the service paperwork and until I went outside after paying $184.01 did I find the CEL on. So basically I feel I just paid $184.01 so someone there could mess up a wire on my truck and I got to spend the rest of the afternoon troubleshooting and fixing the issue myself because you were not equipped to fix it and now I am suppose to trust another maintenance on my truck to you. There is no mention of it either on the inspection paperwork that says it was done by David though the video had Russ and Russ is the one that they went to and he immediately caught John back in the shop area to say it was already that way once he got it from the parking lot. Honestly a low voltage could have caused the issue too if was in “ON” position so that Russ could manipulate the throttle while he was cleaning but at least the disconnect and reconnect has worked so far. Also looking at the receipt I see a charge for $6.99 for materials then there is a $25.50 charge for misc charges which I can only assume is part of the 17% small print shop supply charge. The 25.50 is 17% of the 149.99 I was charged. If I already paid for the shop supply then why charged again for another 6.99
Dealership seems to be good and everything went well with

my oil change with the exception of not being informed that my vehicle was completed, I called and inquired about the status of my vehicle at which point I was told that I was informed that it was completed earlier when In fact I had not been informed. it was not a big deal as I was not in a rush to get it, but I was not pleased that I was told I was informed when I wasn’t.

My vehicle failed its safety inspection because of a headlight issue that your dealership said it couldn't repair. I was then forced to take my vehicle to another dealership, where the issue was diagnosed and repaired without any problem. This caused unnecessary inconvenience, wasted my time, and made me question the level of expertise in your service department.
I expect a dealership to be capable of handling common repairs or, at the very least, provide a reasonable solution instead of sending customers elsewhere. Your dealership needs to invest in better-trained technicians and improve the overall quality of its service. To make matters worse, my vehicle was returned with the interior dirtied from the inspection process, showing a lack of care and professionalism. Overall, this experience fell far below my expectations, and I have little confidence in returning for future service.

their jobs. The issue is with you automated system for making appointments. I made appointment for Southern I NPN and got a reminder for an appointment in Chesapeake. I called the number on the reminder that sent and they couldn’t find an appointment for me. I then called Southern in NPN and they didn’t have an appointment for me. After I finally talked to a service advisor I was able to schedule. That automated system you are using is a complete failure and needs to either be replaced or fixed. If I the same issue again I will just schedule with a dealership that is not connected with Southern.
