  We bought a 2014 Jeep ********************** on 8/20/22. We purchased the vehicle and within an hour of returning home, a ticking noise began coming from the engine. We notified the dealership on the next business day. They agreed to look at the vehicle and proceeded to run diagnostics and drive the vehicle. The dealership deemed there to be no issue, but did not address the ticking. The issue is a known problem with Jeep engines, either a rocker arm or a lifter. The dealership has been told that this could be the issue; however, they say there is nothing they can do about it.

  Purchased vehicle in 2017. At the time the finance gentlemen sold us on a bunch of crap!! Bought rust proof package and extended warranty. With rust proof I got all my seats treated and flooring. Carpet is thin and coming up and seats have some sort of white film on them. The entire bottom of my vehicle is rusting. My brakes make noise because of the rust, and the bottom of every door on my car is rusting. Had many engine issues also. Northland tried to fix problem but car still leaks oil and after asking service to submit another claim to get my vehicle fixed nothing ever happened and extended warranty ran out. Fan in car has been replaced. Called service 4 times to see if the fan was still covered no return call and fan still does not work in my vehicle. Loved my salesman with the process but honestly that is about it! never going back!

  RE:  *****************************

   

  I am following up on ID ********.

   

  ******** had purchased an extended Service Contract on her vehicle when she purchased the vehicle new from us in 2017.

   

  The last time her vehicle was in our shop here at Northland was on January 11^th, 2022, when we did an oil change.  We notated that her Right Rear Axle seal was seeping.  The mileage was 125,782

   

  The next to last time her vehicle was here was in September of 2021 where we did an oil change, and notated her tires were due.  The mileage at that time was 115,*** miles.  We here at Northland are hoping that she changed her oil somewhere in between these two service appointments with us.  If she did not, that is way outside the mileage parameters for what the manufacturer requires.

   

  In February of 2021 we fixed several items on her car for her.  These Items were covered under the extended service contract that she had purchased from us.

   

  Here is a list of items we fixed in February of 2021..

  Rear Main Seal

  Window Regulator

  Fuel Pump

  Timing Chain

   

  I have tried to call this customer to talk with her regarding this issue but she will not call me back.

   

  It is our goal here at Northland Chevrolet to take care of our customers, before during and after the sale.

   

  I would like to get this issue resolved for ******** if we can.

   

  Thank you for your time,

  More info

  I dropped off my 2011 GMC ****** on 3/9/22 for a 10:00 scheduled oil change and to look into an oil leak I noticed. At 10:57 I received a call from the service rep stating my vehicle was complete and ready for pick up. Around 16:30, I stepped into Northland ***** to pay for the service and pick up my truck, when I got the keys I looked over the paperwork and asked a few questions on what the technician did or didnt do. They assured me they did the oil change, found oil leaks (that I told them about), and covered the items on the multi-point inspection sheet. When I got out to my vehicle, I lifted the hood to check a few items and turned on the headlights knowing there where a few details that would have been fixed if the technician truly did a multi-point inspection. When I brought my truck in, I knew my air filter cover had loose screws and missing one screw, so the filter was quite dirty. Also, one of my bulbs in the tail lights was burnt out. Low and behold, what I found after the service, was a burnt out bulb in the tail lights, the filter cover with loose and missing screws and a dirty filter along with the oil dipstick popped up about 4 inches knowing it was never pushed in all the way. Looking again at the paperwork filled out by the technician, many of the items were check as good when they were never checked or should have been marked otherwise, along with majority of the items not being marked on the sheet. Around 16:45 I stepped back into the service department to figure something out and was told they would let the manager know and he would call me the next day. About a week later 3/18/22, at 14:32, I called the service department and asked to talk to the service manager, left a message. On 3/22/22 I called again and left a message for the service manager and am waiting for a response. This is not the first time I have paid for a service here with multi point inspection and a few items have been missed. I hope we can figure something out. Thank you

  I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me. I believe they know what is right and will do what is right, I need to get my confidence back in the business. I know good help is hard to find, and I am no mechanic, but I believe customer satisfaction should be high priority, sales and service. Thank you. 
  
  Regards,
