Hi there, it’s great to hear scheduling was easy and that Ashleigh made such a positive impression from the start. I’m glad she was able to take care of the center console issue right away when you noticed it. Thank you for sharing your experience with Lakeland Volkswagen.

Hi Frank, I’m really sorry your visit went the way it did. That is not the standard Lakeland Volkswagen aims for. You should have been contacted throughout the day so you knew exactly what was going on with your vehicle. Even though it can’t change what already happened, Jared Diveley still wants to hear from you so we can at least address the issues on our side and make sure this doesn’t happen again for anyone else. If you’re willing, you can reach him at jared@lakelandvw.com

Lakeland Volkswagen responded

Hi Stacey, I’m really sorry you had such a frustrating experience. Being told a problem was diagnosed just by smell, quoted a large fee for something under warranty, and not getting straight information is completely unacceptable. Jared Diveley would like to talk with you directly so he can understand everything from your perspective and look into what happened step by step. If you’re open to it, you can reach him at jared@lakelandvw.com. Even if you don’t plan on coming back, he still wants to address this properly.
