  On October 2, 2024 we purchased a ASH-******* reclining power love seat. The love seat has a one year warranty. We purchased an add on 5 year warranty.The recliner ceased to function as a power recliner on August 1, 2024. We called the local store an spoke to ******. She advised us that a service man would take a look. On August 5, 2024, ******, a repair technician made a visit and told us it was indeed a warranty issue. He brought in a part but told us it was not the correct part. He said he would call us to set up an appointment to install the correct part.We did not hear from ****** so we texted him to get an appointment time. H told us we would have to wait a month until the middle of September. On August 22, 2024, we received an advertisement from Evans Furniture telling us the were closing the store and everything "had to go".We called the store to ask about our warranty work and spoke to ******. She said to call ******. ****** did not offer a solution. When I asked ****** to provide a solution she simply said good bye and hung up the phone.We were going to ask for a loaner until ours could be fixed. No time line is offered as to any repairs. If the store closes, there will be no local recourse if we wait until a vague date in the middle of September and we never get the part.The trail to locate responsible parties may grow cold. "Song-******* Act : The Song-******* Act provides a buyer with other recourse if a manufacturer making an express warranty for consumer goods sold in ********** either does not: Have California service and repair facilities, service literature and replacement parts to do the repairs during the express warranty period."

  Parts are on order, however, are delayed by the manufacturer. We expect parts to arrive end of September or early October.
  All of this has been communicated to the customer on numerous occasions.
  We do not have 'loaner' chairs and are unable to exchange the furniture.

  I am rejecting this response because:

   

  The BBB is asking us to accept a solution that is in the future.  If the parts arrive from the manufacturer in the first week of October and the service people make the repairs, all may be well.  If we accept the response, the BBB will close this issue.  We have to wait to see if the issue is resolved before we accept it.  In short, Evans Furniture is only offering a promise to do the work and no work has been completed.

   

  It is unfortunate that Evans Furniture claims to have made it clear that parts are on order, but they failed in this effort.  The response has been we are attempting to get the parts but "We don't know".  We had to contact the manufacturer directly to get a shipping date of October 5.  Having the date of shipping from Ashley, the manufacturer, helps us somewhat.

   

  This issue will not be considered resolved until the warranty repair has been completed.  If the parts are not available in the first week of October, we will need to refer to the Song-Beverly act in California that states repair parts for warranty issues must be available for the duration of the warranty.

   

  The BBB should contact us in the second week of October and not request disposition of this matter in 7 days.  The parts that are promised will not be installed within the seven days and, again, we will only have words.

  ***********************. After reviewing your sale and discussing your concerns with both the store manager and salesperson, this seems like a simple processing time issue. Your furniture is fully protected by the accidental protection plan you purchased, however, given the recency of your purchase, the plan has not been fully processed yet. All plans are in effect immediately upon delivery, whether you have heard from the protection plan company yet or not. If you have an incident, we can certainly expedite the processing for your particular plan, but it is very rare that we see a claim against a protection plan within the first 30 days of ownership. Thank you very much for your business and do not hesitate to reach out with any additional questions or concerns. I attached a sample plan for your reference until yours arrives to you. Regards, **** Evans

  In July 07. 2020 I purchased a combo electric reclyinding love seat and sofa from Evans Furniture in ********* Ca. After the furniture was delivered, I noticed that the sofas were defective. I contacted them immediately to inform the store of the defects and in the beginning they were cooperating with helping me with resolving the issue and this went on for sometime. then I was informed that they would replace the sofas with proper working ones but this never happened. I kept getting the run around in which I gave them sufficient time to give me the working sofas. The sofas came lopsided and unable to recyline well. I was finally told that they could not do anything about fixing the problem . I wasn't looking to return the furniture I just wanted them to correct the ones that I already had or get me new ones to replace the ones already paid for.

  Greetings.I am very sorry for your frustration and have reviewed your claim in detail. I spoke with our service department to ensure that we have taken all of the appropriate steps to attempt to rectify the situation and am confident that all company and manufacturer warranty protocols were followed properly. I also confirmed that you have an active furniture protection plan on file with Montage Furniture Services, but there are no records of you attempting to make a claim on your account. Your protection plan in specifically designed to assist you with situations like this and I strongly urge you to use it.
  
  Our records show that your initial purchase was on 7/7/2021. We repaired one of your pieces 6/2021. At that time, I also see that our service manager discussed how different types of use can damage mechanisms and best practices that can help ensure the longevity of your furniture.
  
  Following your initial repair, our retail manager went as far as to offer you a replacement loveseat, which was reportedly refused due to a desire for both pieces to be replaced. Our manager was unfortunately unable to meet that request because replacement of both pieces was not justified in this case.
  
  Your pieces are currently out of warranty; however, I again strongly urge you to make a claim on the accidental protection plan you purchased. We are more than happy to assist you with that filing a claim if needed and will continue repairing your piece should you not wish to use your protection plan.
  
  Again,we greatly appreciate your business and are sorry for your frustration with the manufacturers warranty process but are standing by to assist you in any way possible.
  
  Warm regards,
  **** Evans

  Hello, I purchased a sectional couch from Evans Furniture a few years ago. I realize it is out of warranty. I was not asking for warranty repair. But when you spend 2500-3000 on a couch. I expect a company to stand behind it. I recently was using the recliner portion of the sofa; the mechanism broke resulting on the back of it to fall backwards. I was already dealing with an injured back. This has aggravated the issue even more.That is not the main reason I am complaining. The reason for the complaint is I called the service part of the company in *********, **********. I spoke with **** in the service ***** back on October 15, 2022, to see if there is a way to repair this. They told me yes, no problem we can order the part. They ordered the part. It was not the correct part. I took the assembly to the service **** to show them this was incorrect. ****** from the service department came out and looked at it and agreed, it was the wrong part. So, they would order the correct part. I repeatedly call to find out where the part is my couch has been torn apart now for over 2 1/2 months. I was told they sent the wrong part again. Here we go again another Holiday in my house with family and friends coming over to the house the couch is torn apart and broken.I have had it. I'm tired of leaving messages for **** and I never get a response. I reach out to ******, and he tells me they have emailed ****** furniture to get me the correct piece I need. He is waiting for them to reply. REALLY 2 1/2 MONTHS LATER. I would like and answer. This sectional. which also has two more recliners on it. So, I imagine these are faulty parts also. Just a matter of time before they break.Purchased @ Evans Furniture **** ******************************* Pkwy #** *************** Spoke with ************* at the service Department Evans Furniture ************************************************************* Please help me get this resolved. Or at least a new sectional to replace this defective one. Since they say it is still being manufactured, as one of their best sellers. I don't want the one piece of the sectional replaced because it will most likely be a different color or different dye lot, as I was told what if I just replaced that piece.

  We are very sorry for your frustration with the timeline of your service, but we are pleased to know that your product has been completely fixed as of 02/2023. Given that your product was well outside of warranty and you opted to do the labor yourself, we were at the mercy of the manufacturer. The manufacturer unfortunately shipped the wrong part based on their recommendation of what would fix the issue and incorrect in their part selection. This incorrect part shipment unfortunately extended your inconvenience even further. Evans' was facilitator between you and the manufacturer and did our best to expedite the process as able. Thank you so much for your business, and again we apologize for your frustration and the delay in getting your sectional fixed. Regards, **** Evans

  Better Business Bureau:
  
  I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to my concern, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me.
  

  I actually fixed it once I got the right part. I really thought after all the trouble you could have repaired it. Let's hope the other sections don't fail. 

  Thanks for the help getting the correct part. 

  Further more the manufacturer telling me it's correct clear back in October & November was wrong. Sure made the Holidays with couch torn apart. 

  Thanks,

  ******
