The service department is always efficient and expedient. Derrick completes out work in a timely manner and lets us know what he did and things that need attention (not just what the company line recommends) More

We're sorry to hear that your experience didn't meet the high standards that guests have come to expect from our dealership.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. While I still hesitate to return to your service department, I appreciate you responding to me and refunding the $550.00 for the rental. I understand that things escalated beyond your control while my car was there and nothing that happened was intentional.
