Pricing was way too expensive. Found somewhere that did the same service for way cheaper. I also felt like I was being talked down to as if I didn’t know anything about my vehicle.

It appears that the requested work was satisfactorily completed, but I am not pleased with the arrangements and communication surrounding my visit. In an April visit to Southern, the paperwork for my completed, but I am not pleased with the arrangements and communication surrounding my visit. In an April visit to Southern, the paperwork for my van and another van were mixed up at check-out time. After some checking, I was assured that the recommendations to replace the front tires and rear brakes applied to my van (which it appears was correct). Recently, I scheduled the tires and brakes repair. I dropped my van off Monday night for a 7:45 Tuesday morning appointment. There were no envelopes for the after-hours dropbox, so I had to use a scrap paper to attach my contact information and instructions to my keys. The van wasn't inspected until mid-afternoon, only to confirm the very reasons I scheduled the appointment, that the tires and brakes needed to be replaced. I quickly approved the work around 3:00. Assuming the van would be finished, I called back at 5:24, at which time I was told the tires wouldn't be in until the next day, and the brakes would be done at the same time. I had no choice but to leave the van at the shop. On Wednesday afternoon, I was told that the brakes wouldn't be in until the next day! So, instead of having to grab the van and take it back again, I chose to leave it at the shop again. Late morning on Thursday I was notified that the van was finished. Thankfully, I was able to borrow my wife's vehicle for part of the week, but I missed some work and leisure activities, because I didn't have my van when expected. I don't understand how Southern wasn't prepared to do the repair Southern told me I needed through a previous inspection, when my booking appointment clearly stated the reason for the appointment. Also, why did it take until mid-afternoon to do the initial inspection, when the appointment was for 7:45 AM? Thank God I didn't stay at the dealership for this repair. Further compounding all of this is the stretched out delays getting both the tires and brakes. If I had known that both wouldn't be in for two days, I may have chosen to get the van back until the parts were in. There was no complex diagnosis or repair required for this visit, and I don't understand how it went so horribly wrong. I have had pleasant interactions with the staff, including Nicole, during this visit and in past visits. However, I am disappointed that many days after I sent information about my experiences, the service department has not followed up on my concerns. More
