They cleared the code for bad catalyst converters and sold it to me without disclosure. When I drove it home chk engine light came on. My scan tool confirmed it and so did muffler shop. More

We appreciate the fact that you took the time you needed to determine if the vehicle you ended up purchasing from us was the right one as well as taking into account the vehicle you traded in. We love our customers and hope you will pass along the good vibes to your family, friends, neighbors and co-workers. Thank you (and your MOM, of course) for business and enjoy that awesome Expedition! A Christensen, owner/principal

We're sorry your experience wasn't as you expected. This is often times the case when someone provides false information.

Columbus Auto Source responded

We think Forrest is pretty special as well! As for our finance manager and the dealership as a whole, as the owner and overseer of the staff, I can assure you that your observations are skewed because we can only work with information given to us by our customers AND we have to assume that the information provided to us is accurate. If, after the information is processed, we find out that it is NOT accurate, we are unable to offer an experience that is desirable to both parties. We do not make lending decisions. That can only be done by the lenders we use to help our customers get financing. If they determine that our customer is not a good fit, then they reserve the right to deny financing. That is exactly what happened to you and it wouldn't matter if it was our dealership or any other dealership. The result would have been the same. Hopefully by knowing this, we hope you will re-assess your feelings about our operation. A Christensen, Owner/Principal.

Thank you for taking the time to post a positive review of your experience, Jessika! Even though you are related to one of our staff members, you are still a "paying" customer and your satisfaction is just as important to us as anyone else who does business with us. Please spread the word to your friends and co-workers! A Christensen, Owner/Principal.
