    I took my ***** Silverado into Dwayne lanes because I heard great things about them. The issue I was having with my rig was, I lost all brake lights.I took my rig into ********************* so they can fix my brake lights, thinking it was going to be done in a week, a little over two months later, and a unhappy customer I get my truck back.During the two months of them having my vehicle, we had communication on what it could, and couldnt be that was causing my brake lights not to work. ***** from services contacted me and said we would like to remove your aftermarket alarm and automatic start system because we think that is it. He told me he did not like how it was wired from the place that did it so I gave him permission to take the system out, thinking that was the issue. At least he had me convinced it was.After them taking the system out, I still never got my truck back. I think it was a little over a month after they took my aftermarket equipment out that I finally got my truck back so Im pretty convinced that my aftermarket equipment was not the issue. I had that aftermarket system in my rig for four years before this issue Occurred with my truck and never once did I have an issue with it .After a long two months, I finally got my rig back. I go in to pay them and what they told me made sense, but was not a happy customer.*****, the service rep told me there was a short on my wiring harness and that it had nothing to do with my aftermarket alarm and automatic start system. And at that time I knew they took the system out and that I was going to pay to get it reinstalled. I also noticed they cut my wires to my aftermarket mirrors and then tucked them away. I brought this to Jasons attention when I picked up the vehicle and he offered to take some money off to make it right but I dont think it will ever be right what they did to my vehicle and how I got it back .Something different Going back to the aftermarket alarm system and automatic start . After contacting the company that installed my aftermarket alarm and automatic start system, they said it would be around $495 to get it reinstalled. At that moment I knew I was not responsible for that and that ********************* was. They told me that , the issue with my brake lights had nothing to do with my aftermarket stuff, and that it was a short on a wiring harness. But what they put on the receipt was something totally different, and I think it was to cover themselves.. they had my truck for a little over two months with not a lot to show and I think on the very end it cost me $3700. After Dwayne lanes returning my I contacted ***** regarding Dwayne lanes, paying to get my aftermarket equipment reinstalled and they declined. I then contacted the service manager at ***** lanes and he declined at that point. I just had enough and didnt know what else to do, all I knew is, I was not responsible to pay to get my equipment reinstalled. At this time I was thinking about taking them to court and letting a judge decide, but I thought Id give them one more opportunity to make things right, I left a review on ******* I noticed that the owner would reply on the reviews that people left so I thought for sure this would be settled appropriately. But it never came and I go on there every now and then just to check. . And I still have not taken them to court mainly because I dont have the time or the money to do so..The conclusion of all this is, I think *********************** is responsible for the bill of getting my aftermarket equipment reinstalled.

    BEWARE RATS AT THE DEALERSHIP!!!!!! THIS DEALER IS INCOMPETENT AND THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE IS GARBAGE. IM NO OVERREACTIVE CUSTOMER THAT DOESNT KNOW THE TROUBLES THAT HAPPEN IN A DEALERSHIP. I HAVE WORKED IN A DEALERSHIP FOR 10 YEARS AND NEVER HAVE I SEEN A TOTAL LACK OF CUSTOMER SERVICE. LONG STORY SHORT, I HAD TO INITIATE UPDATES THAT NEVER GOT RETURNED, THE SERVICE MANAGER DOES NOT KNOW WHATS GOING ON IN THE ***** THE ****NICIAN DOES NOT KNOW HOW TO PERFORM A CURRENT DRAW TEST, AND MY VEHICLE WAS THERE LONG ENOUGH (3 WEEKS) TO WHERE RATS GOT IN MY VEHICLE AND S*** EVERYWHERE AND ATE THROUGH THINGS. TO TOP IT OFF IT STILL WASNT FIXED BECAUSE SOME HOW THE ****NICIAN CREATED AN AIR LEAK FROM A CRANKCASE BREATHER HOSE THAT IS COMPLETELY UNRELATED TO FINDING A CURRENT DRAW FULL STORY:THEY PUT A RE-MAN INSTRUMENT CLUSTER IN MY VEHICLE AND I TOOK IT HOME AND IT WAS DEAD THE NEXT DAY. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED AND INFORMED THEM OF THE CONCERN AND SAID TO BRING IT BACK. I WORK 2 FULL TIME JOBS SO IT WAS DIFFICULT TO BRING IT RIGHT BACK, SO BEFORE BRINGING IT BACK I WANTED TO MAKE SURE THE PROBLEM WAS NOT ANYTHING UNRELATED TO THE REPAIR. IN ONE AFTERNOON I FOUND THE DRAW COMING FROM THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER.I BROUGHT IT BACK AND 3 DAYS LATER I EMAIL FOR AN UPDATE. I WAS TOLD THAT THE **** WAS WORKING ON 2 OTHER CARS AND WILL BE IN SOON. I THOUGHT OK THAT HAPPENS HOWEVER, WHEN A CUSTOMER BRINGS BACK A VEHICLE THAT WAS JUST REPAIRED AND ITS STILL BROKE THEN YOU MAKE THAT VEHICLE YOUR FIRST PRIORITY. I ASKED FOR THE SERVICE MANAGER ASKED FOR AN UPDATE HE SAYS THEY ARE STILL PERFORMING A RESISTANCE DRAW TEST. IM CONFUSED WHY ARE YOU PERFORMING A RESISTANCE TEST FOR A CURRENT DRAW I ASKED IF THEY CHECKED THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND HE SAID YES ITS FINE, I CALLED B/S. I FIND IT APPULING THAT IT TOOK 3 WEEKS TO WRONGLY FIND A CURRENT DRAW, NO COMMUNICATION, AND POSSIBLY THE ****NICIAN TAMPERED WITH MY CRANKCASE BREATHER HOSE ON PURPOSE. DO NOT BRING YOUR VEHICLE HERE!
