      I bought a truck from them for my sons 18th birthday present. I signed all paperwork and denied all extra coverage. They called me back 2 days later and told me they had a bank that gave me a lower interest rate and I needed to come back in to sign paperwork to take advantage of the lower interest rate. When I came back in to sign paperwork they snuck a maintenance plan on the new paperwork without telling me. I called them once I noticed this and they said they would cancel it and refund me and I had to send a email to a lady named ***** I believe and they would issue the refund check. This has been going on and I have been getting the run around for over 2 months. I have been advised to start here. They lied to me multiple times and should not be allowed to do buisness if this is their model.

      I purchased a vehicle here and drove it from their dealership to my home in ********. Upon arrival to my home, I noticed several areas of the front painted bumper were peeling or missing paint. I contacted them. They basically accused me of damaging the vehicle. All I did was drive it. No damage by me whatsoever. $2000.00 or more out of my pocket now need to pay to have this fixed. Not a good place, in my opinion. Not to be trusted to stand behind their cars. So disappointing.

      Dear ******************,

      We are sorry to hear about your concerns with your new vehicle. After reviewing the photos and the deal jacket, we did not see any damage at the time of sale, nor was there any documentation indicating that repairs were owed.

      Unfortunately, issues can sometimes arise during long trips, such as from ******* to ********, that *** not have been noticeable initially. Fortunately, if the problem is limited to the bumper, repairs should only cost a minimal amount to repair.

      We hope you still had a great overall experience. We value you as a customer and look forward to serving you in the future.

      Best regards,

      On 9/19 23 I purchased a 2006 Lexus, and I was charged $225.00 for a new tag. However ,according to The *** I did not receive a new tag, just a extension for 3 months until 1/15/2024. I went back a few times to try and get a refund, but they said it is customary to charge for a new tag even though they do not provide one. I think this is bordering on fraud,

      Business response

      04/08/2024

      Dear ********************,

      Thank you for reaching out to us. We've thoroughly reviewed your account and the charges related to the tag transfer process. In *******, acquiring new tags, including license plates and registration, typically exceeds $400. Your invoice shows a charge of $82.35 for license plate registration, while the additional $225 represents the agency fee for processing the tag on your behalf.

      It's common practice for large dealerships like ours to utilize agencies for tag and registration processing, which incurs associated fees. We hope this clarifies any questions or concerns you may have had regarding the charges.

      We truly value your business and are grateful for your purchase of the 2006 Lexus. We trust it will bring you joy for years to come. Should you require any further assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out. We are committed to providing the best possible service to all our customers.
      Thank you once again, and have a fantastic day.

      Bought a used Porsche and had a terrible experience. ******** sold me an extended car warranty and omitted and misrepresented facts. Did not disclose deductibles and stated that Porsche dealerships would accept this Axiom warranty. Not true. I talked to two service managers at Porsche dealerships and they stated they do not accept Axiom. ******* a manager, was fired because he invited my wife and I to come in and ******** wasn't there. Also stated I was wrong about Porsche. Decided to confront *********************, general sales manager with my concerns and he immediately became combative. Stated I am responsible for not reading my contact although this has no relevance to Porsche dealerships not accepting Axiom warranty. **** also. explained that he did not send me an email albeit the fact that his name was on email as sender. **** also explained he did not receive my email enumerating my issues, albeit the fact that I sent it to his email address. Moreover, I did not receive a return email saying mine was undeliverable. **** at no time wanted to take ownership of these issues and continued to obfuscate. I was u unequivocal when I explained to **** that I was a State Farm agent for.42 yrs. and insured several thousand policyholders. My team members were all licensed by **************** and we're required to attend ******************** classes. I stated his employees should be required to do the same thereby attaing some degree of product knowledge. Also, before I met with **** for the first time, ******** explained that **** the sales manager was terminated for having invited my wife and I in when she wasn't there. I explained that proved my point that **** lied about not having received and read my email since those facts were only stated in email to him. Last of all, our personal rep at PNC bank stated that $4000 warranty that I purchased and canceled netted dealership $2800. These are all reasons to do business with these people at your own peril.

      Dear ****************,

      Thank you for reaching out to us with your inquiry. Following your query, we conducted thorough research and reached out to other Porsche dealerships in the vicinity regarding Axiom Warranties. We found that all of them, with the exception of ************, continue to accept Axiom Warranties.

      It appears that ************ has recently altered its internal procedures, opting to exclusively promote their own products, thereby deviating from the customary practice observed by 99% of dealerships, which generally accept third-party warranties without reservation. For instance, within our dealership group, we readily honor warranties from all third-party providers, as long as we are compensated for the services rendered.

      This departure from the norm by one dealership is rather unusual and its rationale remains unclear. In light of this, we strongly advise bringing your vehicle to us for any warranty-related matters. Doing so ensures that all necessary procedures are adhered to accurately when processing claims with the warranty provider. Moreover, our existing business relationship with the company enables us to expedite the claims process, thereby minimizing any inconvenience.

      We trust that this additional information addresses your concerns satisfactorily. Please feel free to reach out should you require further assistance. Wishing you a wonderful day, and we eagerly anticipate the opportunity to serve you in the future.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      The unprofessional manner in which ******** represented herself to me was rude. The unprofessional manner with which ****, the general sales manager presented himself was also rude. Not adequately explaining why he denied sending an email with his name on it, begs the question as to his credibility. Denying that he received an email from me sent to his email that was sent to me speaks volumes about their lack of full disclosure and more concern about shielding themselves from criticism.  ************** that the dealership earns which is $2800 on a $4000 premium is also totally unjust towards the consumer.  That information, as stated in the complain was given to me by a PNC Finance Manager we've known for several years.  ******** explained to my wife and I that she represented PNC also and stated she could beat our rate of interest, albeit the fact that she did not know what ours was at the time. Clearly, ******** exhibited no business acumen and no integrity.

      In October of 2022 I took my vehicle in for an oil change to Jacobs Mitsubishi . In November of 2022 my car broke down in the middle of the road. I had it towed home as I had no money for repairs at the time. I then used my daughters car for a few months until I had $ for repairs. Then in March of 2023 I had my vehicle towed to a my mechanic who said that my car had no oil , no transmission fluid, and that someone had put brake fluid in my coolant system. I had to pay $1600 for a transmission flush, a coolant flush and the mechanic said to say lots of prays that this would work. My car has been running fine, but the mechanic said he doesnt know how, today 2/22/2024 I had my oil changed and my mechanic said my coolant system is like jello, the flush didnt get all of the brake fluid out. He now says I need the whole coolant system replaced and a flush and hopefully that would fix the problem but not a definite. That is another $1500. The only people that had touched my car before it broke down and sat in my garage for months was Jacobs Mitsubishi. I can not believe they would just ruin my car. I have no idea what I am suppose to do now and I need help. So now I have a car that I owe $7K more than it is worth and I all-ready paid $1500 to fix it after Jacobs Mitsubishi negligence, now I need to pay another $1500 with out a guarantee it will even fix it . Why did a service manage not check on his guys work? They sent my car out of their shop with no oil, no transmission fluid , and they put brake fluid in my coolant system. This is absolutely insane!

      ***************, we sold you a car on November 7th, 2021, and we're sorry to hear about the issues you've encountered years later. It's highly unlikely that your vehicle would have operated that long without any fluid. It appears to be a separate issue altogether. Regular maintenance is crucial to prevent such occurrences.

      I had my vehicle there at Jacobs Mitsubishi in October of 2022 for and oil change, then 1 month later my car died in the middle of the road, it then sat for a few months , I took it too my mechanic in March of 2023 . The last place it had been was Jacobs Mitsubishi. Towed it to my mechanic tjay said it had no oil, no transmission, fluid and brake fluid was put in the coolant system. This was not years later, my car died 1 month after it was at your shop. Then it was towed to my mechanic with all of those issue and Jains Mitsubishi was the last people to have touched my vehicle. So I then paid $1500 to try and fix all of the problems caused by jacobs Mitsubishi. My mechanic was able to keep it driving for 1 more year but now he said due to brake fluid being put in my coolant system, tnat my car is trashed. The coolant system is like jello. And again this all occurred one month after having it serviced at Jacobs Mitsubishi, not years later as you stated.

      False and Misleading Practices.On November 11, 2023, I purchased a 2015 ***** Silverado 5.3L truck for a final cost of $21,319 before tax and fees. At the time of purchase the sale man assured me that the vehicle came with a ***** mile/30 Day warranty for all used vehicle under ******* miles. He explained to me that if something was to happen during this time that the I would either be placed into another vehicle or the vehicle would be repaired. On December 2, 2023, I had driven the vehicle less that 500 miles. *** truck engine light started flashing white smoke was coming out of the tail pipe. I returned the vehicle to the dealership on December 4, 2023. I was informed the 30 day/ ***** mile warranty only covers half the cost of the vehicles repairs needed. I was also made aware that I would have to pay over $400.00 for the vehicle to be inspected. *** inspection revealed the truck had failed lifters on cylinder 6 and 8 with a worn cam shaft as well. My options were pay $7,000 to get a used engine with ****** miles or $5,000 with ******* miles. This price was my half of of the repair cost. This means that it would cost $10,000 to have an engine installed that has ******* miles on it or $14,000 for an used engine that has ****** miles on it, according to split cost. I asked about being placed into another vehicle and I was told that the truck that they had just sold me would be used as a trade in and valued at reduced price of the original price of $21,319.00. This means that I would take a lost as the manager of the dealership explained, if I wanted to get into another vehicle.I was well within the 30 day/ ***** mile warranty the original sales man sold me on. I was told that the policy now only applies to vehicles under ****** miles now. This has been a nightmare being a first time buyer at a dealership. I just want to me treated fairly and this dealership refuses adhere. Legal recourse is my next option.

      Dear **********************,

      I trust this letter finds you in good health. We sincerely appreciate your reaching out to us to share your recent experiences with the 2015 ***** Silverado 5.3L truck you purchased on November 11, 2023. Your satisfaction is of paramount importance to us, and we are committed to addressing your concerns with utmost care and transparency.

      First and foremost, we deeply regret any challenges you are facing with your vehicle. Your comfort and peace of mind are our top priorities. After conducting a comprehensive review of your case, we feel it is important to provide clarity on certain aspects of the transaction and the associated warranty.

      Our records affirm that our salesperson diligently conveyed accurate information regarding the warranty coverage applicable to the 2015 ***** Silverado 5.3L truck during the time of sale. The ***** mile/30 Day warranty for used vehicles was explicitly explained to you. However, we understand that certain components are excluded, and the warranty does not cover the full cost of repairs. We want to remind you that you signed and dated paperwork that thoroughly outlined the coverages and terms.

      We share your concern about the significant engine issues discovered during the inspection, and we genuinely empathize with the inconvenience this has caused. It's important to note that the warranty explicitly states coverage for only half of the repair costs. We understand the impact this has on you, and we want to emphasize the importance of considering a warranty extension at the time of sale, which would have provided comprehensive coverage for unforeseen circumstances. We always encourage our valued customers to consider the added protection for their vehicles, given the complexity of modern automobiles.

      In terms of the option to transition to another vehicle, we regret any misunderstanding. The trade-in valuation is determined by various factors, and it is not our intention to cause any financial distress. We encourage you to explore all available options and collaborate with our team to find a resolution that aligns with your expectations.

      While we understand your frustration, it is crucial to highlight that our dealership has operated in accordance with the terms and conditions outlined in the initial warranty agreement. Should you have any further questions or concerns, our customer service department stands ready to assist you to the best of our ability within the confines of our policies.

      Well let's start from the beginning, I bought a 2012 Chevrolet Tahoe ppv from them back in March 28th *****. Two day after I have it the brakes go all the way to the floor. I bring back to the dealership and they tell me that it needs new rotors and a brake booster at my cost of $500!! What the hell? This is why I went to a dealership so I wouldn't have to deal with used car lot tactics and quality. Then two weeks later I go to leave in my vehicle and it will not start. I have it towed back to the dealer for them to fix it ,after sending 3 weeks there they can't figure it out so they send it to a Chevrolet dealer in ****** at which they send less the 2hr and have figure it out . The computer in the transmission has gone out! Luckily when I bought the truck they also sold me a aftermarket warranty which was supposed to have been the best level with a $100 deductible. So I pay that get my vehicle back again a month later the the vehicle cooling fan's quit and the ac blower motor stops working as well what else can quit. Along with that the factory alarm stops and the remote start Quits. Well come to find out the Body module controller another computer in the vehicle that controls those features has Quit and Needs to be replaced as well guess what the warranty doesn't cover that. Now I Find out that the warranty that was represented to me was not what was written. I was supposed to had the top of the line of the warranty that was represented I now have The Middle Which barely covers anything. I tried calling the dealership several times and never get a call back. This dealership **** through people left and right as every time I call I'm told that that person no longer works here. I just need someone to help me fix this problem, but can't seem to find that person.Well here we are now in September and my tahoe is back in for major repairs again. I still need help in fixing the warranty paperwork as well and can't seem to get any help from anyone at the dealership at all

      On June 28, 2023 in the process of purchasing a 2019 Tahoe from Jacobs Mitsubishi in ********************* multiple issues were found with the vehicle and the sales person ***** verbally, and also via text message stated that the issues would be fixed prior to the completion of my purchase. The issues with the vehicle that were found was a ticking sound from the engine, driver and passenger front powered seats did not work fully, the radio did not have any sound, the front and rear ** were not working properly and missing a spare tire even though the sales ad specifically stated it had a spare tire. On June 30 I went to the dealership to purchase a vehicle and sign paperwork. Before, and during the process and signing the paperwork, I attempted to inspect the vehicle one last time, but instead, I was ushered to a waiting room and told to stay there, until my name was called, then upon talking to the sales manager, to begin the paperwork process I stated again that I would like to go look at the vehicle in which that was ignored, and when I asked if the issues were fixed, he stated Im sure they fixed everything and proceeded with the paperwork. 30 minutes after leaving the dealership the check engine light came on indicating cylinder number seven was misfiring. I was told by the dealership to bring it back so they could look at all the issues that were supposed to be fixed and werent. Approximately half a week went by I received a phone call stating that just for the ** it was going to be approximately $3300 and they dont know how much it was going to be to replace the lifters and asked how I would like to pay it, and which I told them that these issues were supposed to be fixed prior to purchase.

      At the end of March, my 19 yr old purchased a 2017 KIA ******* from the *** location. The day my son picked up the vehicle he noted it was a little off but was told that it probably needed an alignment. He trusted the dealership so he didnt push the issue. In May, he drove the vehicle to ***** and returned at the end of June with issues arising with the vehicle. The car began shaking so violently that it terrified him on the road. He took the car to a local repair shop.The repair shop sent us a repair estimate for $2600 and stated the car should have never been sold as it was unsafe to be on the road. He said the brakes were completely shot and both front axles needed replaced; these are not things that would just randomly happen within 90 days of buying a vehicle. The dealership had told my son it was inspected and no issues found. I immediately called the dealership and management said they would talk with service; at his requestI sent him the estimate from the repair shop. He said that he thought they could do the repairs at cost of parts and no labor; since then they are unresponsive. The ** has not shown up for meetings andeveryone laughs and says good luck pinning *** down to show up. Really? He is the ** of a dealership that put the life of my child in jeopardy by having him drive an unsafe car on the highway but he wont talk with us? Their service **** ultimately gave us an estimatethat was basically the same as the repair shop but with the addition of the rear brakes as they said those are completely shot too; they are so bad that the front and rear rotors need to be resurfaced. All within 90 days of purchasing the vehicle and with the majority of miles driven being highway miles. I expect the dealer to repair the vehicle and stand behind the vehicle that was sold with undoubtedly known issues . I am still waiting to hear back from ****** Jacobs and the **, ***, while the car sits at their *** dealership.
