Over priced. Parts and labor. Had a piece of plastic trim installed. Should have taken 10-15 minutes. Charged me $140. Rip off. I'll be going elsewhere. On a side note Patti has always been great and I un More

Thank-you for taking the time to provide this review, as all customer input is welcome and appreciated. I tried reaching out to you on 1/11/2021, but received no response. I am sorry you feel you were overcharged, but my understanding is that Patti quoted you on the job ahead of time. That being the case, why you did not bring up the pricing issue at that time, before having the repair done? Did the quote end up being inaccurate, incomplete, or miscommunicated? I would be happy to address your situation if you could provide more detail, so please feel free to respond using any of my direct contact info below. Thanks again and have a nice day.

The quote was only material in advance. There was no advance quote of labor. Either way $140 is way too much to snap a piece of plastic on. I've shared the cost with my friends and other connections in town. It's insane. The last time I brought my van in another service person talked me into brake fluid and power steering fluid changes on a 40,000 mile vehicle that didn't need it. I didn't respond because your dealership won't make the changes needed to retain me as a customer. I'm self employed I understand the cost of business. $140 is insane for 10 minutes of snapping plastic trim on. I also don't really appreciate your tone in the message. I didn't respond because I'm not pursuing you to do business. You might attempt to get me back as a customer, but I'm not chasing Palmen. Also had front brakes done. Cost at your shop almost $1000 for two rotors and pads. Cost at the shop I go to now $450. Your material is the same. Your labor is no better educated.

It was clean and people were friendly and helpful. They seemed to observe social distancing guidelines and sanitize seating regularly. The pricing isn’t too bad. More

They were able to squeeze me in as I was in town last minute. I choose this location for proximity to work, and being remote I don’t get there as often and it’s not planned out. So the flexibility was ap More

Found a small gouge on the back side of my steering wheel. Only noticed because that’s where my hand often sits. And the multipoint inspection was not as complete as prior visit. More
