?? Took 3 hours and 25 minutes to get a simple oil change. I expected it to take an hour and would wait. Upon arrival for my appointment I was told they are backlogged and to expect 1 1/2 hrs to 2 hrs. Two hours later truck still hadn't moved. Was told to expect it to take another 1 hr 15 min. 1 hr 40 minutes it was finally done. Staff was courteous and apologetic. That might make up for a small delay, but not for wasting most of my day.

Salespeople were friendly and polite unlike another local
dealership. They greeted us with a handshake and offered water bottles while we sat down for paperwork.

I was expected to pay for repairs without anyone even
looking at my car. I left. Why can't a mechanic look at my car before you ask for payment?

James had ordered parts for my vehicle, and set them aside, when the day came to do the work, the parts were no where to be found, and the team were unaware about what was going on with my car. It took some time for the guys to figure out the situation. I appreciate James’ friendliness, and customer rapport. He worked hard to make things right , and in a timely manner. In the end all was good.
