Too Bad You Cannot Rate Negative Stars - jrembrey

I am writing to express the poor service I received when I had my 2015 Chevrolet Silverado's DEF system serviced for the 3rd time in February. I had originally purchased the vehicle brand new and the first time the DEF system failed and left me broke down was 1 month after purchase. JE Chevrolet charged me a thousand dollars to fix it and the fix lasted about 2 years. The 2nd time the vehicle left my stranded, I was lucky to have been out of town so an Eastern Shore dealership (Midway Chevrolet) replaced the system free of charge under warranty. The 3rd time my vehicle broke down in the 4 short years I'd owned it, I had the misfortune of being back in Front Royal. Not only was it supposed to have cost 800 dollars and ended up being 5 THOUSAND, but they also had my truck for almost a month. GM would not cover the cost of this repeated problem because John Evans determined that the tank was contaminated by an outside source (which I think is completely impossible and a lie) and therefore, it was an insurance claim and not a warranty claim. I seriously doubted this "vandalism theory" because I park my truck in the yard with my two large dogs and right in the frame of two security cameras. Obviously the vehicle is simply a lemon, but following his personal advice, I filed the insurance claim. It has been well over a month and my insurance company is still begging for the evidence of my tank being contaminated from old John Evans himself, but it seems that after they took my 5k, they forgot the fact that they told me to file a claim and they no longer have the evidence to prove to my insurance company that my tank was contaminated as they stated. Or is it because they lied in the first place and just billed me 5k for nothing. We will never know. One thing I do know, I will never go to this place again and strongly urge you not to deal with them either. In addition to being completely lied to and ripped off, I had to deal with a rather unprofessional employee named Sarah in the service department. She kept on interrupting me, was very rude, and offered no real solution to my problem. In the end, after fighting with the incompetent Sarah for well over a month, I am out 5 THOUSAND dollars. If you truly value good service, I highly suggest you go elsewhere. Don't let this old man take 5 THOUSAND of your hard-earned money to fund a bigger mansion like my money did. Regretfully,

KIA of Lynchburg service department issues.Service... - WoodyVulcan

KIA of Lynchburg service department issues. Service Department is FUBAR - so far... Last January we purchased a 2021 Telluride. At that time an appointment was made for the first service visit, an oil change, on 7/21. A few days prior to the appointment, we called to see if we could bring it in and wait for the service. They asked for our name, then said "no problem". Today, drove a total of 40 miles (and wasted 2 1/2 hours) to not have the service done. They said they had no record of the appointment. If fact, service could not even find the purchase in their records. I then spoke with dealer management who was finally able to find the purchase record. He spoke to service and said they would do the work but I would have to wait quite a while for them to work me in. I could not and will have to make another appointment. No effort was made to compensate me for the mileage and 2 1/2 hours of wasted time. I certainly hope this is not an indicator of future dealings with service from KIA of Lynchburg and internal communication improves. While the KIA Telluride receives great reviews, the local service - not so much. So, I called Thursday morning to get a new appointment. Instead got the answering machine. Left a message about what I needed and my phone number. Two days later they have not returned my call!
