Auto repair/customer service
I took my vehicle into the Chrysler garage for an oil change. I began smelling burnt, I initially thought they had spilled some when replacing it & assumed it would burn off. The smell continued. I checked my oil & it was a quart low. I attempted to call the Chrysler Dealership Garage & they would not answer their phone & when they finally would, they would be very rude & place me on hold & eventually disconnect my call. So, I took my car to my mechanic & he asked me who changed my oil last, I told him & he stated, the oil filter is so loose that he could turn it with his finger & for me to take it back up to them. The smell was coming from the oil dripping by the oil filter, which was landing on my solenoid to the starter. So I returned to the Chrysler garage with my car. The service department manager was very rude & stated, "it was only a little loose." He then informed me that I was almost due for another oil change & asked me why I waited to contact them. I explained that I had made numerous attempts to call them. In my opinion, if you messed up my oil change the first time, then he should have just completed it again. I then spoke with the head manager of the dealership & he stated, "We will talk to the oil tech and let him know that he has to tighten the oil filters." He was very arrogant about the whole situation & then offered me a free oil change to use at another time. At this point, they had been so rude that I would not have returned my vehicle there. I took my car to another garage to have my oil changed & was informed that the oil pan plug had been stripped. Once again, I attempted to take my car back up to Chrysler & they stated, "There is nothing we can do about that." I have made numerous attempts to contact the manager & he will not return my calls. My car then started having a difficult time starting, I assumed I needed a new battery. I then found out that it was in fact the solenoid was blown because of all of the oil that had previously dripped in it. I now had to replace the starter. The manager still will not address these issues with me. This is not an acceptable way to treat customers.
