    Complaint Type:
    Service or Repair Issues
    Status:
    Answered
    In August 2022, a rebuilt engine was installed by Saticoy Auto Center located at ***** ******* Street, Canoga Park, Ca. 91304 Tele: ###-###-#### and was given a warranty of 36 months or 100,000 miles. I was told the warranty was from Dodge Dealer were the engine was purchased. In May 2024, I noticed oil drops under the vehicle, so I took the vehicle to Saticoy Auto Center and was told the main seal was leaking and was covered under the warranty as it was only about 40K miles on the engine since it was replaced. I was asked to the take the vehicle to Crown Dodge were the engine was purchased. When I took the vehicle and while I was waiting for a ride, I was told by the service advisor Mr. J***** ****** that there were couple of leaks in the main seal and also cylinder # 3 was misfiring (nothing was given in writing), also he stated there was evidence of mice droppings and some chewing of harness cable. He asked to me to file a claim with my Insurance company. Again, I was not provide anything in writing, it was not until after I requested on May 23, 2024 I was given an estimate of replacing Harness wiring and stating that he will not request any diagnostic test done on the vehicle unless I file a claim with my insurance as he does not want to destroy any evidence. I went back to Saticoy Auto Center, where I was told that they need to fix the engine and if there is any other issues (Harness Wiring) they will take care of it, as the vehicle is running and does not need to replace the cable and can be repaired, he also stated that the amount dealer was asking approx. $6, 600 .00 was ridiculously high and essentially the cost of new engine. It had been 4 weeks since We hope you will help us resolve the issue as we feel we are victim of Fraud and Cheating. I have attached the paperwork from the original repairs.

    BUYER BEWARE!!!! This is the 3rd Jeep I have brought to Crown for service. The service is AWFUL!! They are very difficult to reach and when you do bring your car to them, they claim there are problems that don't exist. They repaired a defective passenger seat, when the car was brand new, and damaged the back of the seat in the process. They claimed there were multiple problems with my daughter's Jeep, that would cost over $1200 to repair, but I wanted a second opinion. I brought the car to an independent garage, and they pointed out that some of the "suggested" repairs had already been done AND the other repairs were non existent. The FINAL straw was a problem with a battery light that kept alerting. I had brought my car in to Crown 3 years ago for the repair. The technician said it was a faulty auxillary battery, and after I paid the $100 deductible for my warranty, they "replaced" the faulty battery. Last year the error message came on again. I took it back to Crown, and they said the battery wire was loose. Just recently it happened for the 3rd time! I called repeatedly, left messages and never got ahold of anyone from Crown. I took my car to an independent garage, and after a thorough diagnostic, and was told that there was a shelf for the auxillary battery, but NO battery in it's place! I was shocked and disgusted. I replaced the main battery, and asked if it was the original factory installed battery, and was told it was. Crown NEVER replaced ANY battery, but charged me for a bogus service. I will NEVER buy or service my car with them. THEY ARE CROOKS!!
