I am not 100% happy with the things that happened to my vehicle when it went in for service I will start by sayin my advisor Derik is a Wonderful,Awesome advisor and would not want anyone else but him I did have one other person Efrin he was also wonderful but works in the back on vehicles a true genuine person! I took my car in for something simple example 1st-seats making noise 2- gps issue got a call about tire having a bubble needing to have it replaced so told them to go ahead went to get my car the rim was all scratched up from them putting it on the tire machine wrong it look like it got eaten up so they said they would send it to their guy to have it painted got a call to pick it up the rim was fish eyed and no clear coat didn't even match they kept the car 2 weeks later went back still not right this went on for over a month not to mention the first time they didn't even paint the right rim! Now less than a year the paint peels and back I go and you can guess the job is not painted correctly I didn't mention before all of this that somehow they also messed the other rims up too so I did have nice new rims until going there and now they are all miss matched painted and was told by Greg their service mgr that it's normal for them to damage so many rims a week and another person there told me that my car never should have been touched by the mechanic that was in the back that day to change my tire as he was not higher rank and that my tires were low profile wide tire and the machine and mechanic has no clue how to do it .. of course no one wanted to be the blame for it just was passed off and now poor Derrik has to now deal with this problem .. I personally think my rims should be replaced! As far as Derrik is concerned he is a 10 star and has always gone out of his way to help out this last problem he was not here and was not my advisor he just came back and now refixing the problem .

Service from Fernando was very good and prompt. Fernando looked up warranty info and said service to transmission would be covered. I also asked about price match with buying a battery which was a Fernando looked up warranty info and said service to transmission would be covered. I also asked about price match with buying a battery which was a positive. It turned out the old low battery caused the transmission malfunction. I found that to be very odd, but a quick "fix." More
