Hello, I tried to reach out with no luck! I see you have not been to our service department in years but there with issues with communication back then. Since it has been years since the events you are referring to, we would love a chance to service your vehicle again. Normally when someone calls in and asks for Craig or Denny the call is transferred to me to address whatever situation so I am not sure where you were trying to reach them! Please give me a call at 860-228-2886 ext. 131 and we can go more in to detail about the events you are describing. Thank you, Nicole Mooney
