Randy is one of the best car salesmen I have ever worked
Randy is one of the best car salesmen I have ever worked with when buying cars! A great person is upfront and honest! Took extra time to show my wife how everything worked on her new Tahoe! Thanks, Randy! Joe Candela

Bought a 2016 Jeep Patriot about 2 years ago from these
Bought a 2016 Jeep Patriot about 2 years ago from these guys for my wife who hardly drives. We took it in with in 6 months for transmission issues. We had bought the extended service contract aka warranty. I was told that it needed a transmission and the the warranty company would only pay for a used one and that they were the ones who ordered it (turns out that was a lie) The first transmission came in with something broken so they had to get another transmission. We waited several weeks and it finally was "fixed" the transmission made a rattling noise but went down the road at-least for a few weeks..... Then we had to take it back in because it would no longer go down the road. Again replaced the used transmission with another.. Again did not last more than a few hundred miles. Then Schafer subs it out to Team Hodges to fix, again with a used transmissions, I waited very calmly for this to be fixed. Over a year later my Jeep still is not fixed and now the company that Schafer bought my used trans from no longer wants to warranty the trans... So Team Hodges makes another claim under my warranty for another used trans mission again it made it less than 5 miles before I had to take it back to Schafer. Then I get a phone call saying that I have used up all my warranty and that they might be able to get the transmission covered but I will have to pay all labor out of pocket now, I said I am not paying out of pocket for something that should have been fixed under warranty. I was told that my Jeep was in the parking lot ready for pick up but it still isn't driving right and when they (Schafer's own people) drove it back it lost power and the trans acted up on them. I now have a Jeep I am forced to make payments on that I can't drive that I paid extra for the extended warranty that was basically useless. But hey you guys were able to get my heated seats working...... I have contacted the dealer a few times trying to reach a manager and have left voicemails and even sent a message today to be contacted through the website and nothing. In total they had my Jeep for over half the time that I have owned it for repairs. I bought this dang thing with around 73k and it sits in my driveway with roughly 78k. Mind you I was never once offered to pay extra for a new transmission nor was a new transmission price even offered as an option to the warranty company. They used over $12k on my warranty to fix this transmission that still doesn't work. Do the right thing here and either buy it back or pay to have a new transmission put in it! Don't blame Hodges for all this or tell me to take this up with them I didn't take it there to be fixed I brought it back where I bought it from. I have also contacted the Michigan SOS and filed a complaint. I forgot to add when I asked the service department why they didn’t just put in a new transmission after the first couple I was told that they couldn’t find any. I then actually went online for 2 minutes and found a new one and actually sent the link in a text message to your service department. And yes I still have the text messages. Also the service department already tried to get you to buy this back and left the notes on my last copy of paperwork on how much a new transmission was and what the buy back price would be. I have not posted those publicly yet…..

So far not great service.
So far not great service. Went to see a 2014 jeep listed for sale to be told it was in the shop for repairs. There is a 2019 here you can see if you like it... We decided to buy it. It was more money than we planned to spend but ok. I should have had a real mechanic check it out. He would have probably noticed the fact that the battery was only held in place by the cables. I called them to ask about getting it fixed and was told the manager would have to call me back. He wasn't sure if that would be covered After talking to them about that, I found out the spare tire was not there and the rear tires stick out farther on the top than on the bottom. I will update my review with the results and response from them.

Hands down Kim Barty is the best!
Hands down Kim Barty is the best! I had worked with her for a couple months looking for the right vehicle for my son! I hesitated at every vehicle, how much do I spend vs. how much will I have to put into it? Is it a safe car for him to drive? She built trust right from the start with being honest about a vehicle! Kim you are amazing & thank you so much for all your help! I will forever appreciate you!
