Rick I’ve been too your dealership numerous times for these issues.still the same thing noisy brakes worse part is your detail guy has swirled the entire side of my car looks horrible.when I purchased this car Joseph talked to Amir they were to fix a couple minor scratches on the car, not to cause swirls all over the paint, I repeatedly told Joseph to talk to the detail department if they can’t do this work not to make it worse. I guess at this point you know what the dealership has to do to make it right either buy the car back have the paint fixed fix the noisy brakes another thing is I’ve driven this car less than 1300 miles since purchased from your dealership the oil was supposedly changed not too sure if that was done the oil is very dark and now the instrument cluster is saying time for an oil change. You have not even responded to my message.hopefully you will respond to this one .
