Had to return for a 3rd time for the same recalls.

Had to return for a 3rd time for the same recalls. Check engine light came on after original visit. Waited several days for call back from service manager, he never called. Well I guess he did after reading original review. They got the check engine light to go off, but were not transparent about the process my vehicle had gone through the previous 2 times. When I arrived to pick up my vehicle, the service manager who contacted me and requested I bring the car back passed me back to the same service guy that started the entire mess. Honestly, I’m considering an upgrade to the next model so I wouldn’t have to deal with Hyundai at all. Clear communication goes a long way! People are not as dumb as you guys think, even if we aren’t mechanics. Gerald started the process of trying to make things right and in my opinion, did that about halfway. As the manager when you took over for the service guy, follow through. The fact that you passed me back to the “gentleman” who started the problem really says you cared. Thanks! When time to purchase again, PARKS will not be involved, no matter the dealership.

Under new management and it shows.

Under new management and it shows. I just purchased my 2nd car. The service department has really stepped up. Before the changes in the company, I had planned to not come back.

Lengthy waiting.

Lengthy waiting. Less than average communication. Obviously trying to be better. There have been some improvements but still have a ways to go.
