    In July I had an oil change on my Yukon, and a day later my system told me that I was low on oil. When I checked the dipstick it read no oil. I called *** Jeannotte service and they had a tow truck pick up my car to be looked at. They had only put in half the oil needed for my vehicle . As a compensation they replaced my tire sensors since I had 3 that went bad. Fast forward to today 12/2/24 I took my Yukon in because it said I had a bad tire sensor. Jeannotte service informed me that they had only replaced 3 sensors, in July, and that it would cost me $140 to replace the one sensor. I told them, no not today. They washed my car and sent me on my way. Once I got into my car to check tire pressure, I had asked them to fill to 35 psi, none of my tire sensors were working. I went back into the service department and they told me that, since the one isnt working that they cant relearn any of them. I reached out to *** *. With my situation and he told me that unless I replace the bad sensor then none of them will work. When I asked him to just return my car the way I left it. He had no reply. All I want is my car to be returned to the way it was when I dropped it off. None of the possible issues were discussed prior to working on my vehicle. Also, when I gave them a possible solution to restoring my car to how I dropped it off, again, crickets from *** *. Their only fix is if I spend $140 to fix the sensor. This is my second poor showing for *** Jeannotte Buick service and it has cost me 3 days of work now.

    In order for us to verify that the sensor was bad we tried to save this customer money by trying to reprogram the sensor that was in error.  Once you do this, if the sensor was actually faulty, you need to replace the bad sensor before you can finish the programming.  The customer declined the ****** repair.  I explained this to him and he asked if aftermarket sensors would work.  I stated to the customer that we use only genuine GM parts and was not sure if they would work,  He then stated that he could buy 4 sensors for the price we were charging for 1.  Our price included labor and tax but he was still unsatisfied.  Im not sure what else we couldve done.

    The reason why I dont accept their response is because they arent willing to put my car back to the way it was when I dropped it off to them. I dont think its unreasonable to ask for that. I offered a solution, of putting a working sensor where my faulty one is get them working then put my failed one back and it would be the same. No response when I made that suggestion. Also, In July when they botched my oil change, they tried to relearn all of them and only one was working so they sent me home with just one working. Why cant they send me home with 3 now. I havent asked for anything more than my car being put back to its situation when I dropped it off. My car is actually in less working order now then when I dropped it off. Please help BBB.

    It cannot be re-programed done without 4 good senors.  He will not pay for the sensor that is bad or the labor to reprogram his vehicle.  He knows this and wants me to install a sensor from my stock, reprogram the vehicle,remove it and re-intall the bad sensor so that his vehicle is back to the way it was when he brought it here.  The labor to do this will cost him more than just replacing the one sensor.

Please type details here:]the reason I still dont accept their response is that I just want my car back to when I dropped it off. To ask me to pay to have my car put back to its original condition is absurd. They made my car less than when I left it. Just put it back to normal or pay to do so. They say $140 to replace. Its cheaper anywhere else. They arent very trustworthy if they wont take responsibility and put my car back to its original condition.

    I received a $13.00 rebate from GMC ***************** for work I had done at a GM Dealer. They issued a **** card which I have just learned expired after 6 months and is no longer valid. I would like to be reimbursed. I was not aware I was going to receive a **** card or aware of the expiration.

    ******************,

    Thank you for taking the time to speak with me.  As you stated, the dealer that serviced your vehicle is *** Jeannotte GMC in ********, not Sunrise Buick GMC in ******* *********.  I am sorry that the rebate center is not able to replace your expired **** card.

    Thank you,

    We spoke to the customer about this situation.  Her complaint is with ************** not with Bob Jeannotte Buick GMC.  ************** sends these **** cards out.  They do have expiration dates on them and when presented at the cashier it was expired.

    The complaint I filed is not against the car dealership.  My complaint is against GMC Service since they offered the rebate.
