Great service My mother-in-law's month old Certified Pre-owned 2011 Tahoe with 44k took seven tries to start and then it ran rough and wouldn't go faster than 10 to My mother-in-law's month old Certified Pre-owned 2011 Tahoe with 44k took seven tries to start and then it ran rough and wouldn't go faster than 10 to 20 mph. I called Sullivan's (the dealer she bought it from is too far away), they took it in and Ralph called me when they couldn't reproduce the same issues. Based on the codes in the system he said they would replace a couple of relays and make sure the electrical connections were clean and protected with dielectric grease. I told him I thought it was bigger than that, that it was a safety issue and wanted to see if the throttle position sensor was bad. He felt it wasn't and said they would leave it at the relays. When he called later to let me know it was ready he let me know that he went back and reviewed the issues as I described and ended up replacing the throttle body. All the work was done under warranty and I couldn't be happier. NICE JOB RALPH! More

I seriously hate doing this! I would like to first point out that Vin was an awesome salesmen when we purchased the vehicle! He kept us in the loop on everything going on and we h I would like to first point out that Vin was an awesome salesmen when we purchased the vehicle! He kept us in the loop on everything going on and we had a very smooth delivery. It was a little bit disappointing to go in the dealership and have him talk to me without even knowing who I was not even a month later. This is my third car purchase and I felt a lot like a dollar sign instead of an actual person after that. My real problem is with the service department. I declined the extended warranty offered along the advice of many people wiser than me, including many Subaru mechanics. I was very glad that I did that considering when I brought my car in with a very apparent rattling the techs at NW Hills "could not hear anything." I left and heard the car rattling right away. I returned my car two days later and got a loaner vehicle. This was by far the worst loaner vehicle I have ever encountered. It was damaged, interior was stained, and it had a terrible smell. The tech's "thought" they "fixed" the issue on my car. I can't believe that a dealership would allow a customer to leave with the "assumption" not known fact that the issue is fixed. I own the fact that I bought a used, non-certified car from this dealership, but I do believe that if you do not have techs capable of working on out-of-brand cars, you need to send the vehicle to a dealership that does. Which, I would like to add, I was told would always be the case when they were trying to sell the warranty to me. Because of the very incompetent service department and the frustration I experienced because of them, I will never return to this dealership again. More

Very Poor service, charges for what should be warranty work, damaged vehicle and in the end could not fix vehicle said there is nothing more we can do. You don't give up on a customer, It was a 2012 vehic work, damaged vehicle and in the end could not fix vehicle said there is nothing more we can do. You don't give up on a customer, It was a 2012 vehicle and under warranty when brought in with a problem and was told because of the paper trail warranty wont be a problem. Very disappointed... More

I purchased a brand new 2013 Cadillac SRX Performance Edition AWD. It started with less than 200 miles and again with less than 3000 miles. The engine is defective as the service manager informs us, the Edition AWD. It started with less than 200 miles and again with less than 3000 miles. The engine is defective as the service manager informs us, the cylinder head must be replaced, they did not tell us the true problem the first time that it was due to the defective engine, cylinder head and allowed my wife to continue to drive this vehicle which placed her and myself in a very dangerous situation. The cylinder head engine defect on the 2013 SRX 3.6 AWD sucked water and coolant into the engine, rust is around that area now as told by the service manager. The General manager told me that "You are not getting your money back, and that is. Take it up with GM. Insulting us more, they stick us with a Buick aveno tiny car and not even honoring the same level or greater vehicle as was told to me when in the buying process. The service manager told me when I asked why they removed the spark plugs for detailing on delivery, I did not get an answer because the record shows that on the first service issue due to failure with 189 brand new miles, they found the water in the intake and removed the intake, dried out the plug, and coil in # 3 cylinder. Asked how did that get in there, I was told could be due to the power washing. I said, what? what do you mean? I cant drive this in the rain or run it through the car wash? He said no, the power washing of the engine. I said, its brand new, off the line, why power wash the engine. He said, well it suits on the lot for a while before delivery to a customer. People are telling me what a bunch of crap in this story. Now, with 2912 miles, the car is in the garage with the cylinder head defective because the engine is now contaminated with water and coolant inside and they want to tear apart the engine and replace the components / cylinder head. Well not on my watch. I paid cash on the spot and I want all my cash refunded or the vehicle replaced brand new exact specs or greater. I will not stop until one of these two demands are met. The general manager at Sullivan' Northwest Hills Dealerships in Torrington, CT is rude, unprofessional and careless with Customer attention and satisfaction. More
