Dear *** *******:
This letter is in response to correspondence dated 6/26/23, regarding a complaint filed by ****** *****. I would like to provide the following information.
Once our dealership receives an authorized, electronic credit application the customer is assigned to a salesperson, and it is their responsibility to make contact and keep notes in the respective customer's file.*** ***** stated we ran his credit 5/6/2023 and 10/9/2022. Under his name, address and phone number provided in the complaint, we show no credit applications for these dates. However, on 6/22/23 we received an electronic "Consumer Ez-App Authorization to Pull Credit" form filed in the name of ****** ***** (copy attached). Page 3, "Terms of Use Agreement/Authorization" shows the "yes" box checked in agreement with these terms. Once checked, our dealership is permitted to run credit in order to assist the consumer with purchasing a vehicle. Without the customer's authorization, we would never run credit.
There are also notes on file showing contact was made with *** *****. He requested pricing on a specific 2023 vehicle; after we requested, he stated he would be emailing recent paystubs so we could present them to a lender regarding financing. If there is any additional information you need, please don't hesitate to contact me directly @ ###-###-####. Thank you.

Let me start off by saying there was severe water damage to the vehicle when I bought this car that I did not know. The electric wires, front and rear brakes and all four rotors and pitted were RUSTED, RUSTED, RUSTED and four different tires. DON'T BUY ANY CAR FROM CONICELLI CONSHOHOCKEN, PA!! Now, I brought a **** ***** Hybrid 2017 car from Conicelli and couple of months after getting my vehicle, my tires started losing air frequently. So I went an check my tires. The mechanic said I had four different tires. The dealership sold me four different tires which is illegal. A couple of months after that the check engine light came on. I decided to take it to a **** dealership to see what was going on. They reset my car and told me I was OK to drive. Then I took my car for inspection at Conicelli where I originally bought the car. They told me that my car passed the inspection but there was rust on the front rear brakes all four rotors and pitted. Mind you I just had this car a couple of months and they're telling me this car had rust that they sold me and also they passed the inspection for the four different tires as well. Couple of months after that the check engine light came back on so I took it to ******* where they told me there was something draining my battery. So a new battery was put in the car. So I choose to take it to the **** Dealership and they did diagnostic test and there was severe water damage to the vehicle as well as the cap that's supposed to be on the electric part was off. It never was on when I purchased the car. The **** Dealership said it will cost me $2395.00 to fix it. Also, the Rotors to get fix is going to be $500 EACH. And the list go's ON!!! So I decided to go to Conicelli to see if they would take the vehicle back. They said NO.....I was sold a car that was damaged from the beginning. BEWARE........Business response

Dear *** *******:
This letter is in response to BBB correspondence dated 4/27/23. *** ******'s rejection of our response to the BBB, 4/17/23, was addressed by our ***** Service Manager and Owner.
We reviewed the 2 documents attached to the rejection. With regard to **** Motor Company's, recall letter dated July 2022, this would be her responsibility to have completed. All vehicle recalls are performed by the brand manufacturer only (in this case, Ford). Conicelli is not authorized to perform recalls on other manufacturers brand vehicles other than what we sell.
As you know, *** ******'s vehicle was sold out of our ***** Used Car inventory 2/23/21. We also reviewed the copy of the Vehicle Emission Inspection Report performed by our Toyota service center, 4/13/2022. The repair order noted front brakes at 10/32 and rear at 7/32. Her vehicle passed state inspection. There were certain recommendations made to *** ****** at this time, which we do to keep our customers informed of what may be needed for their vehicle in the future. *** ****** declined the recommendations.
It has been over a year since her vehicle was in for service; and that was the only time in 2+ years we saw this vehicle. *** ****** had a 60-day Used Vehicle Limited Warranty from 2/23/21 delivery; she also purchased an extended warranty. Had *** ****** returned to our service center during the time she was having issues, we would have addressed the issues she had under those warranties. We are not offering any refund as we feel we have done nothing wrong. Please contact me @ ************ ext **** if you have questions. Thank you.Sincerely yours,

Last Tuesday, Feb 21, I ahd my car 2022 ****** ******** ***** serviced at ****** Conicelli Conshohocken for routine oil service. They told my daughter that everything was good and everything checked out green. My daughter was driving the car and she first noticed the smell of burning oil. Last Saturday, Feb 25, she noticed the "low engine oil" symbol showed on the dashboard. When on of her friends checked her engine oil with a gauge it showed no oil and there was oil spillage on the ground. They also noted the oil was spilled on the main engine also. They told my daughter not to drive the care anymore. It was towed to ****** Conicelli service area on Monday Feb 27. Service representative called me for update and he told me that there was significant amount of oil that spilled but it was fine and they're going to degrease and clean the machine and they're going to order a replacement cap for the oil . I told them that I am not comfortable taking the car back as my daughter is driving that car and what assurance are they going to give me that the engine is not damaged at all. It is ****** conicellli service fault that all this is happening to my car. We had this car serviced to maintain the good performance of this car and this what happened. This is negligence on their part. I am not taking this car back and toyota conicelli will need to replace this car.Business response

Dear *** *******:
This letter is in response to the above complaints. As you know, the first complaint we received on 2/6/23 was responded to that same day requesting additional information from ******** ***. On 2/9/23, we received a second complaint, which I assume was in response to our request for additional information. Both complaints have been reviewed and addressed by our ***** General Sales Manager and Owner.
******** *** ****** 2 vehicles from our dealership, a 2016 ***** ***** on 8/18/2016 and a ***** ****** on 7/15/2019. During the negotiation process in 2016, the agreed monthly payment was $150.75, with $3,500 down. Attached is a copy of the signed Buyer's Order showing that she and her co-lessee, **** ******, were in agreement with these terms for a monthly payment of $150.75. *** *** agreed to this on 8/17/2016. She gave us a deposit in order for us to locate her new vehicle based on the above items. She signed all documents on the contract dated 8/18/2016. This process was mutually agreed upon. All payments were disclosed prior to her taking delivery. A lesser down payment would have resulted in a higher monthly loan payment.
Attached you will find copies of these documents: the Buyer's Order and Lease Agreement between *** **** her co-Lessee **** ****** and ***** Leadership Leasing for the 2016 ***** *****. This lease agreement outlines the terms and conditions of the lease for a period of 3 years. All monthly payments for lease vehicles are made directly to the manufacturer. Her financial obligation was with ***** Financial Services, not Conicelli *****.
Also attached are copies of the Optional Product Disclosure, signed by both individuals that also outline the monthly payment, a copy of the Conicelli Commitment document and the Credit Score sheet.
*** ***'s request for a $3,500 refund is denied. Our dealership follows all local, state and federal laws with regard to the sale or lease of our vehicles. If there is any additional information required, please don't hesitate to contact me.

Worst experience from a dealership I ever encountered. This being my fourth year as a lessee from ******* this whole ordeal will deter me to purchase or recommend ******* ever again. Two years with ******* in Abington was a great experience which led me to stay with *******. But after dealing with Conicelli ******* I would not recommend at all due to the unprofessionalism and brash display for lack of empathy for paying customers. The service work was done in a timely manner. ****** ***** was not helpful at all from beginning to end. His lack of understanding and concern for a customer in need didn't show until the customer has something the need which in this case was a loaner vehicle. My car being unable to start and towed to the shop i was told twice on the phone by service reps no loaners were available. Until magically i expressed my concern online a loaner became available the same day. Also, My car was damaged in the process of being in route or in possession of the dealership from front low and middle fender damage and undercarriage damage. After several unanswered calls and voicemails from my insurance company i am left with a damaged vehicle. After showing the dealership proof of damage i was immediately written off stating it was the tow companies fault. After requesting photos or video footage i was told it was against company policy to release photos and told they need the loaner back which was the only concern. Ultimately i received surveillance footage only because i would not return the loaner prior to the agreed return date. I was told the surveillance footage clearly shows the damage (another lie ) the footage shows no signs of damage and is not clear or close enough to show damage. (Screenshot provided from the video) My insurance rep stated he was told that it would be $300 to release photos to the insurance company so now i am stuck with over a thousand dollars estimate in body damage with no proof of liability that i have to pay. The tow company provided photo documentation of my vehicle with no damage prior to the two and after with no hesitation. But the company i pay hundreds a month for one of their vehicles were absolutely no help..showing lack of customers true concern and possibly guilt. Currently left with $1200 in repairs i have to cover due to negligence of this dealership. The under carriage was claimed to be fixed by the dealership but ultimately was a horrible patch job with zip ties...once of the worst experiences i ever encountered.Business response

Dear *** *******:
This letter is in response to your correspondence dated 2/3/23, regarding the above referenced customer, ******* ********. The complaint has been addressed by our Service Manager who reported the following.
*** ******** leased a 2021 ******* ****** from our dealership on 5/12/2021 for a term of 3 years. The vehicle was towed to our dealership by a road-side provider because it would not start. The tow driver unhooked *** ********' vehicle with the bed in the air and rolled it off the back. The front of his vehicle was clipped about half way off the truck and it bottomed out on the bed.
There are a couple of scratches on the right lower corner of the bumper that we believe happened when the car was put on the tow truck. We are unsure of how the tow truck driver could have taken a picture with no damage since it is all under the vehicle and it was raining the night it was dropped off to our service department.
We sent *** ******** a copy of the video as he requested. When we received his vehicle we found it was heavily modified. It has straight exhaust pipes from the exhaust manifolds to the back of the vehicle, the cats and mufflers were cut out and replaced with straight exhaust pipes. The intercooler is an aftermarket product (installing this requires taking the front bumper and reinforcer off the car, and the car would not run because there were accessories installed which were wired into the fuel pump wiring).
We were able to get his vehicle running as best as we could. We also advised *** ******** he needs to put all the factory equipment back on his vehicle for it to run correctly. Had *** ******** not modified this vehicle, there would not have been any issues.
Our dealership is not offering any refunds to *** ********. If there is any additional information you need, please don't hesitate to contact me directly @ 610-828-1400 ext ****. Thank you.

Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because: As shown in the businesses reply they are mentioning modified parts internally that has nothing to do with the outside body damage. The intercooler was not replaced or modified therefor it was no need to remove the bumper as falsely mentioned by ****. Conicelli ******* negated the fact to mention on their notes of said body damage when received by the tow truck company to me or in their documents. If a car is received with body damage by a tow truck company it would be I’m sure procedure to have this documented. Also, it seems this business didn’t care to alert me of the body damage showing neglect on several parts from a car I am leasing for them. When asked for surveillance footage my insurance agent was told it would cost $300 , and when I asked for the footage I was told it would take up several days. But, In need of their loaner vehicle I had signed out for another three days they needed back so badly they got me the footage the next day. The dealership had notations on as mentioned by **** on modified parts such as pipes and the intercooler but seem to overlook over a thousand dollars worth of damage seems very odd. If the damage was done by the tow truck company I’m pretty sure as a business owner this would’ve have been alerted to the customer immediately.

I purchased a car from this dealership. The alignment and ball joints are bad. The website states they are both covered under the 60-day warranty. However, Mark E******* the service manager is refusing to cover them. I nearly lost control of my vehicle two weeks ago due to this issue. If they refuse to follow there warranty I will return the vehicle. I will also do my best to ensure no one shops here as these false advertisements are not legal.

On 5/27/22 I was scheduled for an appointment with Conicelli Hyundai in Conshohocken (10 mi from where I live) for 2 reasons: 1) car was due for regular maintenance service and 2) I felt an unusual pulse coming from my pedals. The car had only 18,000 miles on it when I made this appt. At the appt, the mechanic said he detected nothing out of the ordinary when he test drove it. So I paid the $100 I owed for the maintenance work, but left the dealership feeling uneasy because I still had a hunch something was wrong with the car. Next, after having my car test-driven by 3 local mechanics who all said they could hear something was wrong with the car, they advised me to call Hyundai back because the warranty likely covers whatever the issue is. So I called Conicelli back; they said they couldn’t schedule an appt before 6/28. I was leaving town 6/22, so I needed the car looked at before 6/22. With no other option, I called ****** ******* of West Chester (20 mi from where I live) to ask if they could schedule an appointment. They did and found 2 problems with the car. I’m attaching 2 invoices. Conicelli invoice states nothing is wrong with the car; ****** invoice states 2 problems. One problem is covered under warranty; the other is not. Next, I emailed the Conicelli service manager Pat M****** on 6/24 to ask how these issues went undiagnosed when I visited his dealership for my initial appt. No reply. Then, I called late June - on phone, Pat told me he'd speak to the mechanic who test drove my car on 5/27 and get back to me after 7/4. He didn't get back to me. So I called again last week and left a voicemail. Pat still didn't return my call. This complaint is to express my concern regarding Conicelli’s negligence, especially when the problem with the car involves the brakes. Now I have to drive 20 miles to the ****** location to have the car fixed since they are the ones who diagnosed the problem. I’m requesting some sort of compensation from Conicelli for the negligence.Business response

Dear *** *******:
This letter is in response to your correspondence of 8/2/22, regarding a complaint filed by the above referenced customer, ***** *******. The complaint was addressed by our Hyundai Service Manager.
The charges on Conicelli RO #******, 5/27/22, totaled $99.80 (copy attached). These charges were for an oil, filter change, lube and tire rotation. *** ******* was not charged for brake inspection or two other concerns listed because we did not find anything wrong.
With regard to the brakes, our Tech road tested his vehicle around the block and did not feel any pulsations. If *** ******* experienced pulsations at higher speeds, it was not noted. Also, we did not test drive the vehicle over the posted local speed limit.
****** ******* ** *****, 6/20/22, indicates customer complaint of pulsations while driving fast. They replaced an axle boot due to tear/leaking. They also recommended replacing the front brakes, resurfacing rotors due to heavy inner rust.
*** *******'s request for reimbursement of $100 is denied. Please don't hesitate to contact me directly @ 610-828-1400 ext **** should you require additional information. Thank you.

(have paperwork for proof) and the 6/2022 I was given the same paper telling me I am in the green as I had brake pads and all ordered that I have now returned and have no money to have them replaced because I believed the technician and I am out. My seat on the driver's side was also broken and I explained to them I had seen it and tried to put it back in not knowing that it couldn't be fixed this way I was also told it wasn't covered and then spoke with **** who I addressed all these concerns with and he informed I was given misleading and wrong info and he would rectify everything. he ordered the parts for my seat and called me to schedule an appointment with him and I took it and the seat was fixed nothing else was addressed or fixed and then I was told had to pay and they wouldn't give me my car **** wasn't even there when he told me he would be handling it. My Uncle ************************* who works there had to come down and have my car released. I feel that my tires and brakes should have been fixed due to serious negligence and I should have been handled better period,Business response

On Thur July 7, 2022 at about 1130am I received a scam likely call from ************. I picked the phone up and no one was on other end. So I hung up and blocked the number. Then a few moments later I received an email tell my credit application for a car loan has been processed. Since I don't live in the area, nor have I applied for any car loans, I found this incredibly nerve racking and worrisome. This turned out to be a pathetic attempt at a sales gimmick; yet caused me a great deal of pain since I have a neurological disorder, and this kind of stress causes flare ups in me. This email is beyond unethical, unprofessional and borderline illegal to tell me they have processed a credit application under my name without my permission.Business response

Dear *** *******:
I am writing in response to your correspondence dated 7/8/22, regarding the above referenced complaint. On 7/6/22, we received a sales lead from a company we do business with called **** ****** ******* (***). Consumers who are interested in purchasing a vehicle, enroll online at the *** website, complete a credit application and must give their authorization before it is accepted and released by ***. *** sells these leads to not only our dealership but other auto dealerships in order to assist consumers with purchasing a vehicle and securing financing for the purchase. So this lead could have been sold to dealerships other than Conicelli.
Sincerely yours,
Paula D********

Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because:Sending an email claiming to process a credit application to someone who didn't input any information to a lead vendor is not acceptable. I legitimately thought my identity was stolen. The wording of the email, which I shared, was very concerning. Their response made no mention of their assertive tactics being a threat to consumers. They need to stop this behavior. They never verified that I was on the DNC list; they violated to TCPA, which carries a $10,000 fine - I'd like to report them for violating this. Their lead vendor has sold my name multiple times, they have never reached out to the lead vendor per my request to get them to remove my information; another reason I am rejecting their response. They took no ownership of their malicious behavior.
Regards,
