Group 1 Hyundai Southwest Houston

After my Santa Fe died while on I-59, I had it towed to Sterling McCall Hyundai which was only two exits away. While it was there, I decided to get the a/c fixed too since it hadn't worked for 6 months. Th Sterling McCall Hyundai which was only two exits away. While it was there, I decided to get the a/c fixed too since it hadn't worked for 6 months. The price to get the vehicle running again was under $400. However, after adding the a/c repair costs, it pushed the final costs to $1,315. I was told that the a/c compressor was bad so they had to replace it. On the 2nd day, William called me and told me that it was fixed and was blowing "ice cold". I picked it up on a Friday 15 minutes before they closed and paid $1,315 for the repairs. While driving home it never even started trying to blow cold. Blew warm the entire 25 minute trip. I called during the trip and reached a guy in the Parts Dept but those in the Service Dept had already left for the day. I took it back in on Monday and they said that the new compressor was bad (covered by warranty) and that a hose was clogged but could be fixed for $300 more. We agreed to $150 more. Out of curiosity, I asked William how it blew "ice cold" for him when he tested it on Friday if the hose had been clogged all along and he stuttered, stammered, and basically tried to BS his way through the follow-up questions until finally giving an "I'm not sure why it did" answer. I picked it up on Wednesday, paid the $150 more, and by Thursday the a/c was blowing hot yet again! Called them once more and they said that it may be the evaporator coil and if so will cost another $630 to repair it. They are either incompetent or intentionally bilking their customers by doing unnecessary work in order to run up the repair bill. Either way, it is not good for the customers. There has to be better options available in the Houston area for Hyundai owners that need service work done to their vehicles. To say that I would NOT recommend this dealership for repair work would be an understatement. Avoid them like the plague would be more accurate advice. I have no experience with their Sales Department so I can't give an honest opinion about that side of Sterling McCall Hyundai. More
