Hello, Thank you for your business and for sharing your feedback with us. I truly understand your frustration, and I want to clarify the situation regarding your concerns. After reviewing your case with our service department, we found that for your first vehicle, no oil change receipts were provided. As outlined in our warranty disclosure, which you signed, proof of regular maintenance, including oil changes, are required to maintain warranty coverage. Regarding your second concern, our assessment indicates that the issue falls under normal wear and tear, which is not covered under warranty. As a courtesy, we did offer a thirty percent discount on the repair, which was declined. I hope this explanation provides clarity, and please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any further questions. We appreciate your understanding and the opportunity to assist you.

Of course you do. For the 1st vehicle I provided 75% of the receipts. The 2nd car we just purchased from you, a vehicle should not be sold in that condition. Lesson learned. I will tell everyone i know what type of a dealership you are, just interested in lining the your pockets and those of the warranty companies.
