    Continued disappointment! I bought a 2019 Chevy Colorado ZR2 from them little over a month ago now. Less than 30 days the check engine light came on and needed fuel rails replaced. Within two days of repairs it is now leaking fuel and must be taken back in. Also to those veterans seeing the service flags out front, they gave no recognition or offers. Will be looking for another dealer to take personal and business purchases elsewhere unless something drastically changes.

    Thank you for your review Mr. *********. We appreciate the feedback. We are glad the truck wasn't actually leaking fuel after the repair was done. We do apologize for the residual fuel left that we weren't able to get out of the noise cancellation foam the first time, but are happy we were able to get it out eventually. I know you and Krystal spoke and you mentioned you were extremely pleased with the service you received. We do hope to see you in the future for your service needs. In reference to your comment about veteran recognition and offers, we do offer discounts. We do attempt to thank every veteran for their service when they are in our store. I apologize if you didn't feel that we are thankful for your service (we are). Please feel free to give me a call or email if you'd like to discuss these items further. Thank you again for your business and your service. Cliff ******** ************ ext. *** ***************************
