Had a great experience. All the staff from the sales manager, salesmen, & finance were great

Absolute ripoff!

Absolute ripoff! Take your vehicle somewhere else for service. $650 for a oil and fuel filter change? I know I agree to pay for it but definitely know I got ripped off. Also they move their truck Service to another location away from the dealership in the middle of an industrial area. Their appointment system has not transition from former dealership ownership to new ownership and no one cares. Took me ive 2 months to get appointment.

Another sign I got ripped off is that they charged my for 13.20 quarts of oil and my truck only holds 11 qts. Autonation Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram and FIAT Carlsbad is a complete mess. They send me a generic response with a number, when I called the number it went into the general office number. When I finally talked to someone they keep transferring me top different departments and never connected me to the GM. As a long time and loyal customer, I'm very disappointed with not only their outrageous cost of service but their overall customer service in general. Who the xxxx runs AutoNation? I'm invoice #512275, tag#4601. All my contact information is there is you want to coin tat me and explain why an oil change went from a reasonable $160 to $345 plus to additional 2 made up qts of oil? Sal

Owner

My service tech ROBERT at the Carlsbad location, communicated and explained every step of service needed on my vehicle. I appreciated ROBERT keeping in touch with me throughout the day. Because of new ownership, It took a couple appts because they are short staffed in service, infact I was seriously contemplating going to another dealership but ROBERT made everything right and turned a frustrating experience into a #10 (10 being the best!) thank you! ?
