Thank you for your feedback. We’re very sorry to hear about the issues you’ve experienced following your recent service visit at Gordie Boucher Ford of Kenosha. The concerns you’ve described including the steering knock, dipstick left out, oil levels, and your catalytic converter repair not meeting expectations are serious and do not reflect the standards of quality, safety, or attention to detail we hold our service team to. We understand how frustrating and concerning this must be after bringing your truck in for warranty work, and we want to make things right. We will have our management team reach out as soon as possible so we can review your repair order in detail, address these concerns immediately, and restore your confidence in our dealership.
