Find another Dealership Service Department.
I made an appointment and set time for rear brake leakage issue. I took the vehicle in 10 mins. early. The vehicle was not even looked at by a Service Tech for weeks. Why bother to make an appointment? It took a month for a Tech to finally work on it and fix the rusted brake lines (brake lines - a month). When I went to pick up the vehicle it would not start. The Service Manager said we needed a new battery and would be happy to sell me a new one. The battery in it was less than a 1yr old. I had the battery checked by 3rd party and it was just fine, just needed a charge. Probably voltage charge down due to the vehicle sitting outside for a month in the fringed temperature. I finally had the vehicle towed to a REAL SERVICE garage to finish its repairs. Amazingly the 3rd party garage was able to get my vehicle up and running in one day. This was a HORRIBLE experience!! Just like the last time we had our vehicle in for service. I will NEVER buy a vehicle from this dealership, nor will I ever have my vehicle service there again!!

Trailblazer
No problem, but disappointed that they couldn?t do some body work for some pings and buff a few areas.

Took car in for burning excessive oil.
Took car in for burning excessive oil. They troubleshoot it and said a gasket was to blame. They replaced the gasket even though I told them there was no oil on the ground. $500 later the car still burns 1 quart of oil every 1000 miles. When I asked them if they checked for burning excessive oil they said they did not. Don't bend over at this place!

My daughter Jennifer Lawson owns a 2010 Chevrolet 2.4L Equinox that I bought her. It is using an excessive amount of oil, about 1 quart every 2 weeks. The car has a 2.4L I4 F DOHC engine VIN: 2CNALDEW3A6334513 and has an Illinois State car title. Is there an kind of compensation that she can receive to get the car repaired?

Oil Change and Urgent Battery
The dealership was great about moving up my oil change appointment because I had a dead battery. Everyone made it super easy and it cost less than expected!

Bought a 2019 ram on sat 8/06 deal was done mostly by
Bought a 2019 ram on sat 8/06 deal was done mostly by phone and email as I live in okla 700 miles away I asked several times to have the truck serviced and road ready for the trip home the salesman Billy Cowden assured me that it was ready 100% I got there at 2pm picked up truck asked again if truck was road ready stated yes.i left and hour into my trip it started raining used the Wipers to find out the rubber was completely gone couldn't hardly see to drive made it to parts house replaced Wipers was a serious safety issue. Made it home to find no service had been done air and cabin filters have never been changed after being told it had been done. Idk if this was common practice to misinform a out of state customers as they knew I couldn't come back and make them correct the problem. I've contacted the salesman he apologized blamed on the service department. I haven't Been contacted by dealership to offer any compensation for the issue. You would think after spending 39000 on a truck they could have at least kept there word. If you buy a car check to make sure you get what you are promised. I do love my truck and am satisfied with the deal just not the service issue.

How could your dealership make this issue right, i had the truck serviced here at my dealership. Im not looking for a handout i just dont believe your dealership kept its part of the bargain.
Made contact with management they are sending compensation for the money i was out on parts so this issue has been resolved and i am satisfied. Thank you Friendly Chevrolet ☺️
