Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with us. We truly appreciate your candid feedback and the opportunity to better understand your experience. First, thank you for clarifying that you worked with Max and not Mike — we appreciate you pointing that out. We understand your concerns regarding the key fob. While it is not uncommon for pre-owned vehicles to come with only the keys available at the time of acquisition, we recognize how receiving just one fob can be disappointing, and we agree that clearer communication up front would have been helpful. Your feedback on this is well taken. Regarding the tire, we’re glad it was noted in the paperwork, and please rest assured that if an issue arises, we will absolutely follow through on addressing it as discussed. We also appreciate you mentioning the missing valve stem caps. While small, details like that do matter, and it’s helpful for us to know where we can improve. As you mentioned, the extreme cold limited our ability to wash the vehicle prior to delivery. We also understand your thoughts on the fuel level. While we don’t guarantee a full tank on used vehicles, we can appreciate how that detail impacts the overall delivery experience. We truly value you taking the time to outline these points. Even small items, when combined, shape how a customer feels at the end of a purchase, and your feedback helps us improve that experience for future customers. Thank you again for choosing Darrow and for sharing your perspective so thoughtfully. We hope to have the opportunity to serve you and your family again in the future. Warm regards, Darrow Management Team

Jared, we understand you’re frustrated, but at this point we need to be clear: taking ownership of a vehicle means accepting the responsibilities that come with it. Several months and several thousand miles have passed since you purchased the Ram truck. It is your vehicle, and with that comes normal costs, maintenance, and upkeep. And Jared—resorting to name-calling doesn’t help your case. It’s unnecessary and, frankly, very unprofessional. At some point, you need to take responsibility for your own truck and the realities that come with owning it. We’re always willing to help like we did when you first got the truck, but the responsibility for the truck now rests with you.

We truly understand your frustration and appreciate your patience throughout this process. Although the extended service contract did not approve coverage, we went ahead and replaced your 150,000-mile transmission with a lower-mileage used unit at no cost to you. Our goal was to make sure you were taken care of and your vehicle was back on the road as quickly as possible.

Nathan, sorry to see you feel this way about your car, however...Let's tell the rest of the story, you drove the car for 2700+ miles and during that time managed to completely, somehow wear EVERY bit of tread off both front tires, down to the point the cords are visible and sticking out, they look like racing slicks. That is anything but normal wear and tear and certainly is a sign of abuse ,neglect or who knows what. Let's also remember we offered to help you out by getting you in touch with our Nissan dealership to try to get Nissan to help with your situation, but first thing they would ask is what in the world happened to your car and it's tires? Clearly your situation is of no fault of the dealership, and most likely not Nissan's either.
