    I was in a car accident on April 5. I was stopped at a stoplight and a car hit me from behind. I brought my car to AutoNation on April 14 after ***************** assessed my damage. They fixed my seat belt and air bag so I was able to drive it while waiting for additional parts. I returned my car to AutoNation on Jun 13 when the parts arrived. They promised it would be ready in 10 to 14 days. It is now August 14 and it still is not ready. They keep making excuses of mechanics being sick and their manager, ******, is also sick. We went back on July 21 and they promised it would be ready by July 30. My car is a 2011 ******** **** C300. The *** number is *****************.

    My car was hit on February 15th, 2022. I took the car to AutoNation in Westmont using the insurance through the guy that hit me. It took three months to get the parts in (The only way I found out they were in was to call them over and over). I dropped the car off there May 23rd, 2022 to be fixed. ****** from there left me a message saying they found more damage, needed to order more parts, and did not have an ETA when they would be in. It's now been 6 weeks, and my car is still not fixed. The MAJOR complaint I have is that I have now called 7 times to receive an update on my car. I have spoke with the receptionist 5 times, a woman named ***** once, and left an actual voicemail for ****** (who I'm told is the manager). NO ONE has ever called me back... I have no idea what is going on with my car. I also called the insurance company of the guy that hit me, and ****** has not even contacted them yet about the additional damage to (which he needs to do so they pay for it). I feel like at this point they have stolen my car and I do not know what to do. 6 weeks, and no one will call me back. The only thing I hear from the receptionist is that they are short staffed which is not an excuse. What do I do?

    Unfortunately we did drop the ball on communication with the customer. We are very short handed in the office, which is not the customers problem.  I apologized to ****************** for our bad communication. I did start to have regular communications with ******************. We did find more damage on his vehicle, which we did address with the insurance company and we are getting that paid for by the insurance company.   ****************** did in fact pick up his vehicle on 07/12/22.
