Audi Charlotte responded

We appreciate your review and regret that we fell short of our 5 star standard, Todd. I do apologize for the time it took Fidelity Warranty to authorize a new motor for your 2020 Q7 as well as any miscommunication on our part explaining that situation. I feel this is most likely due to the mileage on your Q7 being well over 100,000 and the limited availability of a replacement motor. It pains me to hear that you are not happy with the level of service we provided offering an alternative solution as a 2 year newer vehicle with 60,000 less miles for a small difference. I felt we went the extra mile at the end and do apologize that you do not feel the same. I felt sure when you shook my hand that night, and your daughter looked happy with the car, that we were in agreement. We truly appreciate your previous patronage, your patience throughout this unfortunate experience and hope she enjoys her new car. Sincerely, Jeff Simmons General Manager

Thank you Jeff, I appreciate the response. To Clarify, what happened was I wrote a check to walk away from a situation that was mismanaged by Audi Charlotte for 6 months. The fact remains that Audi Charlotte sold us a Platinum Coverage warranty, that we were within the time and mileage limits of, failed to honor the warranty and Audi Charlotte failed to stand up for your Clients to make it right. I appreciate you framing it so it looks like a good deal and my daughter was happy. What actually happened was I went from a fully loaded Q7 with just over a 100k miles into a BMW X3 ( lower miles or not) which is not nearly the same class of car I purchased. What also happened was the the car that was supposed to be detailed and ready to go for a smooth transition was still sitting in the parking lot and required us to wait 3 hours while our sales rep helped other support staff furiously detail the car so we could be out of there. The scratch that was supposed to have been handled, was also still there that required us to come back, because again, the ball was dropped. What also happened was that after 3 hours of waiting you didn't have the decency to come over shake my hand and say anything as an attempt to make the situation right. I spent close to $150,000 in one year in your dealership, bought every warranty you offered, exclusively serviced both my vehicles at Audi Charlotte for the last 5 years, and the thanks was, here's a BMW X3.
