    Answered
    I purchased a 2020 Jeep from the ***** location 2/23. Less than a month later, the shifter began flashing while driving & it would not go in reverse. I videotaped the flashing shifter, immediately called the dealership to report the problem & ask for assistance. I was told to get a tow truck. I then brought the vehicle to the dealership. I showed the ** the video & explained the problem. To my shock, he sent me home not having the vehicle checked by a mechanic, instead he told me that If the vehicle was not "acting up" at that time, there was nothing they could do. That's a lie. He said he would document the incident should it happen again & could then honor the warranty. It did happen again, I went back for assistance. The technician told me there was nothing wrong, that the flashing was because the door was open. I told him that was not the problem because I don't drive with my door open. He pointed to the door & said "get the f*** out." I left in tears. This is a 30k vehicle that was completely unsafe to drive. I then went to the ******** dealership & spoke with ****. He took it to Oshkosh as I was afraid to drive it, got me a loaner, as I had a flight to catch in *********. It was "repaired" for $580 however the problem never resolved. I called the ******************* repeatedly as I needed an immediate remedy, the suv would not go in reverse. The service advisor was extremely rude to me, laughing at me at times, telling me I could leave it ************* could drive it around until they experienced the problem but wouldnt give me a time frame to fix it, weeks he said. A rental vehicle would cost me over $500/week. Fed up, I went to another repair shop & was advised the vehicle needed an entirely new transmission at a cost of $7000. I was advised by that repair shop to call ************* to start a case for assistance.As a loyal Bergstrom customer of 30+ yrs I expect an acceptable solution. This vehicle is dangerous, these men wouldnt let their wives drive it.

    Worst customer service and experience in general. Bought vehicle end of December, broke down beginning of July, still without my car. They gave me a rental that needed an oil change- maintenance light was on and scratches on vehicle and rims, with a small crack in windshield that has gotten bigger with the below freezing temperatures. I would never recommend to anyone with the experience(s) I went through. I was hung up on after being put on hold for *********************** another loop for 15 after being hung up on. I had to call.the Oshkosh store and the manager there helped me get through to someone. I was stuck in traffic with a recalled seized engine for 2 hours waiting for their tow truck 3rd party to get to me in the busiest intersection ever. I really can't believe all the mishaps and unfortunate events that have been tied to this vehicle.
