If I could give less than one star I would. I brought my 2018 Jeep in for battery replacement and an oil change on 6/17. While checking in I was told I had two recalls on my vehicle, one of which was suppos 2018 Jeep in for battery replacement and an oil change on 6/17. While checking in I was told I had two recalls on my vehicle, one of which was supposed to be repaired on a previous visit where I was told they didn’t know how to repair a clutch. Really? Signed the car in with Dana and was told it may take a day or 2, which was ok. 5 days go by before I hear anything from the dealership. Was told that the battery would be replaced, and the clutch would be changed out. Was never given a quote for the cost of the non-recall work, not a time frame. I was out of town and errantly assumed it would be ready by Saturday on my return. Of course, never heard anything back from the dealership. Called and left a message on 7/26 ( 9 days after we dropped it off) and never got a message back. Called Monday 6/28 and never got a call back. Called Tuesday 6/29 and after haranguing the call staff was able to talk to Mike, the service manager, and was told the part for my clutch recall, was ordered and would not arrive until 6/30. My wife than harangued the dealership for 2.5 hrs on the phone and was finally able to get a rental as I had no car and work in Tampa. Again was given no timetable. Called on 7/1 to talk to Dana and finally got a call back just before 5p that my Jeep was being worked on and would be ready 7/2. She stated she would be out and Melissa would call me when it was ready. Of course Friday midday came and had not heard anything, so I called and spoke to Noelle, and was told that IF my car was done before 7p she would call me, and of course I never hear anything. Saturday 7/3 I went into the dealership and spoke with Greg, where I was informed that my car had not even been looked at and was sitting in the lot all week. Was upset to say the least as we are now sitting on more than 2 weeks to change a battery, oil change and clutch replacement. I asked if the oil change was done and he said it was not I there to do an oil change. I was assured that my car would be done 7/5, by midday. 7/5 comes and I hear nothing until 6pm. Car is ready. When I go in the car is not ready. I was told that the work was all under warranty. I was not given a bill or anything stating what work was done. My car was finally brought up, I was given my keys, and nothing else, sent out. Greg said he could take the keys for the rental car and they would return. After almost 3 weeks Inassumed this nightmare was done, but nope. Was informed by Enterprise the following day that the car was not returned. Over the ensuing 3 days it was found that these buffoons moved the rental car on their lot, and lost the keys. Greg also then informed me that the battery was not under warranty and how did I want to handle that. This service department is a disaster. I sent an email detailing this experience to the GM of the dealership and never received a response, which tells me the crappy attitude starts at the top. I was lied to, and mismanaged from the get go. There is no actual service in this department. Everyone of the employees from the manager on down should be fIred and replaced. I will inform anyone and everyone I come across what a wreck this facility is and to avoid using there service department and to not by a vehicle there. Caveat Emptor. More

Purchased a Jeep Compass in 2019 and it has been the worst experience ever out of all the vehicles I have owned, Iv had issue after issue 2 recalls and when I go to get it fixed it’s always attitude wit worst experience ever out of all the vehicles I have owned, Iv had issue after issue 2 recalls and when I go to get it fixed it’s always attitude with the service department, I wait for 20 mins before someone offered to help and even then it was like it’s such an inconvenience to them. Their customer service needs extreme work. It’s draining having to take my car up to them, I will definitely consider taking my vehicle in and using another dealership More
Buying a used vehicle? Beware of this dealership, my 2017 jeep renegade interior was completely trashed and I had two illegal plugs in my tire and a nail in another that. they had supposedly did a safet 2017 jeep renegade interior was completely trashed and I had two illegal plugs in my tire and a nail in another that. they had supposedly did a safety check on the vehicle and missed those. when I picked it up and when I brought it back to dealership to be cleaned like they said they would, their "detail job failed to fix the sticky black spray they used to cover up stains. They even left gum on the seat and instead of cleaning it up they sprayed black dye over it. They seemed to think my expectations of a clean vehicle was to high and instead of fixing it they offered me 100 dollars to take time out of another of my days to have it cleaned at a detailer of my choice. They seemed to think that 100 dollars would be more than enough but every detailer I found was closer to 200 just to clean the interior. I watched the detailer steam clean the vehicle and almost threw up with how disgusting the carpet was after the dealer had supposedly cleaned it. As for my dangerous and illegally plugged tire? I had to take my jeep in 3 times just to have them finally confirm it was a plug and not a patch like they kept insisting because according to them "they inspect the vehicle before selling it". And instead of replacing the tire since it was damaged they insisted on only patching it with an approved repair patch. Cherry on top of that was the service guy was upset and argumentative that I wanted a service right up of what they had done to my tire because in his words " they didn't charge me for the patch so why should I get a service record of it". Obviously after their shady tactics in selling me the vehicle I wanted proof they had worked on it incase something else happens. I blame no one in particular at the dealership and just have a general annoyance at the whole business now and will never use them again. More

When l !!!Buyer Beware!!! Went to purchase a car for cash with a trade in. After the trade in was subtracted the price was now 4000 more than listed. When looking at itemized sheet I found that over $3000 was in dealer fees (not tax, tag, title). $1800 reconditioning fee, $1000 paperwork fee, $300 key fee. Don't trust these aggressive salesman and they're inane fees. Go to a reputable dealer that doesn't rip you off. More
Do yourself a favor and make sure the car isn't already sold before you spend 2 + hrs looking, negotiating and having them run your credit only to tell you it has been sold. Cause that is what they did to sold before you spend 2 + hrs looking, negotiating and having them run your credit only to tell you it has been sold. Cause that is what they did to me. I call the evening before and texted the morning of before driving over an hour to look at a Journey. I got there shortly after they opened my sales person pulled the keys showed me the Journey had a hold of the keys the whole time working with me. We talked and negotiated and went to the point of hard hitting my credit and signing the first part of the paperwork and right before I went to go to do the financial part a Manger comes out to say sorry but the Journey has been sold. Offered to look to see if there was something comparable but he said no and then offered to fill my tank for my troubles. I'm sorry but a tank of gas for my troubles is not gonna help for the almost 5 hours of travel and wasting of my time. Do yourself a favor if you plan on doing business with them ask first if the vehicle has been sold. More

Once again they failed to earn a cash deal that we agreed on. They verbally commit to out the door numbers and then magically change them when you come into the dealership. By far the most typical car dealer on. They verbally commit to out the door numbers and then magically change them when you come into the dealership. By far the most typical car dealer experience. Very sad to see this day in age. Good luck to anyone buying from here More
