      In April I purchased a car from this dealership. I was told the passenger side door lock actuator would be replaced, the passenger side speaker would be replaced, and a persistent squeaking sound coming from the steering column would be addressed. This dealer kept the car for three weeks, they called me up to say it was ready. I got a ride from where I live in *************** up to Auburn. It wasn't until my ride left that the assistant manager I was working with told me that none of the repairs were made. I made a review on ****** and the assistant manager was extremely rude and unprofessional about it through text message. I asked if he would help rectify the problems and he said no. I want this made right!

      The customer, *******************, purchased the 2007 ****** Highlander Hybrid on 5/18/2022. We had discussed having several issues being addressed at out ************** Service Center since ************** lived in ************** and that would save him the inconvenience of bringing the vehicle back to our Auburn location. I added an estimate for the door lock actuator into our costs. I had already purchased the speakers prior to selling the vehicle. We had every intention of taking care of these repairs. I had not heard anything about this, so I had unfortunately assumed this had all been taken care of. On 01/10/2023 I was told that there was a very negative review on our Best Deal Auto Sales ****** site under the name "**********". I searched our archives for any customers named ****, and was able to find one that also had a last name that started with C. After texting ************** he did respond and confirmed that he was the one that left the review. The review has since been taken down. ************** also said that the he hadn't had a chance to bring the vehicle in for service over the 7 months that he has owned the vehicle. ****************** vehicle would not be in our service center for 3 weeks to change a door lock actuator and replace a door speaker. All he has to do is schedule an appointment, show up to the appointment, and let us finish the needed repairs. - *************************** Assistant Sales Manager

       I am rejecting this response because:

      I am not paying for these repairs. The dealership had this car sitting on the lot for three weeks and then called me to say it was ready. I want the three issues in my complaint addressed at no cost to me. I expect the repairs to be done in a timely manner as I don't have another car.

      We agree to take care of these issues, as stated in our original response. As previously stated, all ************** needs to do is set up an appointment. We, as always, will do our very best to make sure that the repairs are done as quickly as possible at no cost to **************. - ***************************

      Hello, this complaint was closed on 1/27. I have tried five separate times since then to schedule work on my car and the dealership refuses to get back in touch with me. Is this something you're able to help me resolve? I'm at my **** end with this place.

      The customer, *******************, has an appointment at our ************** Service Center as agreed. ************** had been texting us, but we did not receive those text messages. After calling our service center, he was put on the schedule.
