The consumer alleges that she had to sit through a presentation to be awarded the prize and that fact was not stated on the flyer. The company did not respond to BBB's advertising review.

      Beginning this past spring in April, when our 2020 ************* started up, a plume of smoke would come out the exhaust. This would happen intermittently at first. We brought it to our dealer (Global Auto Mall in ****************, **) on May 1, who then had our car until May 15 (May 1 - 9 no loaner). They said they fixed the problem, which they didn't.The problems continued and the smoke became more persistent. It has been maybe 5-6 times that the car was brought in since May (for weeks at a time), until *** finally said they would do an engine replacement under warranty about a month ago. They replaced the engine and said our car would be ready within a week, but then after the engine was replaced they said we need a fuel injector. A few days later, this fuel injector is no where in the country and with no estimated time frame to be delivered. We have now for this last stint been without our car for SEVEN weeks. And no loaner - they said they don't have one for us. My wife and I have two children, own/run two businesses, and are currently opening a third business this month! To say this has been an inconvenience would be an understatement. We are out of patience.

      My 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee was taken for service over the period of August 1, 2022 and again in September through November of 2022. During the vehicles time at Jeep the transmission was replaced. Upon completion the vehicle was returned in what was stated to be in perfect working condition with warranty and job security as it was performed by ****. Unfortunately after 14 months, it was brought to my attention that the transmission cover was missing. Naturally one would ask why did you take so long to find this out? The simple answer would be no one had brought it to my attention during routine oil changes. Or, that Im not a mechanic and I dont frequent my cars undercarriage nor have any knowledge had I looked. I called and spoke with the initial service advisor *******************************, then directed to speak with manager ****, and finally the most condescending director ***********************. All of which were no help other than verbally try to sell me a part. It didnt occur to not one of the 3 individuals mentioned above to request for me to bring the vehicle in to take a look at it and attempt to come to a reasonable solution. The reason for this review is not to bore you with a complaint over a potential $200.00 transmission cover that went missing. Instead I write this review to warn customers. Do your research when having your vehicle serviced. Look for dealers that provide detailed videos of every service they provide on your vehicle.Many dealers provide videos for your records and security as well as theirs. We think because we are taking our car to a reputable dealer for service we will be secure in knowing the job is executed perfectly. BEWARE: Dealerships make mistakes and they dont always do the right thing. They refuse to do right by the customer and because they are independently owned as I was told by **************, there is nothing anyone can do. You are left to their mercy and often they are sharks lurking potential new feed.
