Good and Bad Aspects - Billy Needs a New Job I had two recalls on my VW. When I contacted the dealership, I was told that I had to have my vehicle at the dealership to be serviced, before they c I had two recalls on my VW. When I contacted the dealership, I was told that I had to have my vehicle at the dealership to be serviced, before they could order the part for the second recall. I was told once my vehicle was at the dealership, they would be able to order the part for the second recall and would call me once it arrived. I believe my first recall was completed around August 22. As of October I heard nothing. I was due for an oil change and wanted to combine the service with the recall to avoid multiple visits. I called the dealership and spoke to Billy. Billy was curt and frankly unhelpful. I asked if there was any sort of timeline he could provide so I could know if the visits could be combined. He said he had no idea and that VW provided no information regarding the status. Frustrated and in disbelief, I immediately contacted VW directly, after my phone call with Billy. The VW representative I spoke with was prompt and courteous. She confirmed with Tate at the Kennesaw dealership that I was able to have both the service and recall visit by the next week. I can only assume Billy lied, though I can't really imagine what he can gain from it, unless he was saving the parts for other "preferred" customers. If he hadn't been so rude on the call I would think it was a simple mistake (I did confirm the specific vehicle information on the call). The situation also makes me question whether having both recalls arranged in one visit were impossible as I was told originally, I can't be sure as I didn't document the name of the person I spoke with, but it may have been Billy that told me that too. The actual service visit ran smoothly. Both Rafael, who checked in my car, and Tate who followed up and closed out the servicing were polite and efficient. My only one half complaint about the visit, was my car smelled a bit like a wet dog after. Not sure what that was, but driving with the windows down cleared it by the next day, so no real issue. Overall, I would return with the exception of Billy. I marked "yes" I would recommend this dealership, but I would prefer to list "maybe". One bad apple can really spoil the bunch. It makes me feel as if the dealership is untrustworthy, and you need someone you can trust to work on your car. More
