    1/25/2021: Brought newly purchased vehicle in to have filters/fluids changed. Paid for:Oil/Filter/Change: $137.43 Fuel Filter: $109.36 AIR FILTER: $39.87 ***************** for repair order: $9.66 Taxes: $11.72 Total Paid: $308.04 1/?/2023: Discovered Air Filter was never changer (or even checked), Called to let them know. Someone was supposed to call me back... No call ever came.3/23/2023: I stopped into the establishment to bring it up as, I was being avoided, for something I PAID FOR. After 40min. I am told that it has been too long. Which leaves me confused... When I don't drive *****k miles **** interval on changing an air filter). What date or time was one supposed to randomly check an air filter that they paid professionals? to install when it wasn't even in a miles/range to do-so? I own 2 other trucks... Just a low educated excuse to get out of trouble? Lets keep it simple, I paid for it, give me what I PAID FOR, not excuses or thievery please. This dealership has shown me enough of what there capable of. Getting/Stealing, money, and time. Hence the low rating.

    I traded my vehicle on 05/13/2022. On 6/21 the check engine light came on, I called the service department and was told that because the light isnt blinking its not an emergency. An appointment would be scheduled for July 14th. On 6/22 the engine sounded weird so I took my vehicle to Oreilly where the code was diagnosed as P0300, multiple cylinder misfire, immediate repair needed, emergency. I brought my vehicle in on 6/23. I was not offered a loaner car and was told they could give me an update of what the issue was. Several days later I was told a technician looked and it and found nothing. The service provider informed me he was not confident in that technicians skills therefore he would ask another tech to look at it. On Monday the 27th I had not heard anything, still no vehicle either. I called and left a voicemail, no answer. It is now July 2nd, I was not given a single update since the last time I was contacted since June 27th when I told it would be another day, maybe two.. still no update . I went into the service department today July 2nd and asked the supervisor what is going on with my car. He said the last note in there was sending a new technician the ticket for my vehicle to be looked at. I am now having to wait another weekend plus Monday (4th of July) without a car and no answers. I am beyond frustrated due to the lack of communication and kindness. I have been patient and understanding and am being treated poorly. I have reached out to the ** who will hopefully be able to understand that his service department is lacking in hospitality. This is ridiculous, Ive had to cancel Dr ************* running errands, work, all sorts of things due to this. Its beyond unfair. Im considering taking my vehicle to another experienced mechanic and sending the **** to Peterson. This vehicle has a 90 day warranty and I have been a loyal customer but I will take my money elsewhere because this is mind blowing to be treated like this.
