  On June 15th, 2023, I had my 07 ***** Tahoe towed to woodies on mallard crossing. The original service writer named **** called me and I explained that my vehicle needed a simple crankshaft position sensor relearn procedure and he told me that he had never heard of it on my particular vehicle but to send the car over to be diagnosed. I did that and then **** called me with an estimate for **** dollars for spark plugs and new coils. I called back and told them I just wanted to pay for diagnostics and pick up my car. A manager then called me back and said that ***** pricing was way off and then quoted me a price of $1538. At the urging of my wife, I agreed and assumed that at the least I was getting a full tune upNope! What I got was 3 new coils and 8 spark plugs. All of which were grossly overpriced! I came to pick up my car on that Friday after work and waited 2 hours at the shop. When it was ready, the technician pulled the car out and brought the keys into the office without ever test driving the vehicle. I pay for the service and head home which is literally 5 miles away and the car stalls out again in my driveway! Now just a side note here, all of my symptoms that my car is having is due to the crankshaft sensor not being relearned so the computer doesnt know how to fire the ignition properly! But **** the service guy said theres no such thing. So I called back, obviously furious and **** again says something stupid.Can you drive the car to *********** location? It was like 13 miles away! My vehicle just shut down and you want me to drive it another 12 miles to another shop? Just dumb and inappropriate! The next day terron calls me and has the car towed back to the mallard crossing location. He had his technician thoroughly drive the vehicle after whatever repairs were made and the car repeats the same actions. So now theres nothing more they can do. Terron says its the ecu. The scanner says its the relearn still! $1538 bad tuneup?

  Today's automobiles are very complete and very difficult to explain in laymen terms especially when there are multiple issues with the vehicle. The vehicle did not have any codes concerning the crank sensor, it did have codes concerning random misfires which is what we addressed by replacing the coils and spark plugs (this is standard procedure address the primary code first). We addressed the only codes in his vehicle when it came to us on the first visit. He returned with different codes which we addressed and we did complete a relearn on the sensor as he requested at no charge to him. Doing it again will not solve his problem. He is having issues with an unrelated component on his vehicle. There are intermediate communication failures with the **** He left and  installed his own computer and it needs to be reprogrammed. We offered to do this for him at a discounted price since it is not related to the repairs we made and we did not install it. The procedure he is requesting has been done what he needs is a completely different procedure which requires more time. The work we completed solved part of his issues and there are no more random misfires and is cover by a 3 year / ****** mile National Warranty. The offer to do the relearn on his PCM at a discounted rate is available.

  I am rejecting this response because: although woodies has drafted yet another elegant response, all of the symptoms described are related with the crankshaft sensor, which was my original complaint!  PERIOD!  Im dont trust anyone at the Mallard Crossing facility because when I asked about the relearn after installing the new computer, they had to check to see if they could do it although they said it was done. All they have done is make excuses and quote their 36k warranty.. I drove the truck literally 20 miles since then and if they did the relearn free of charge, isnt that too under the quotes warranty?  So what if it has to be done again and if it doesnt work out then they have covered their warranty fulfillment.  But pay another dime to these crooks.. not happening

  Unfortunately the facts do not support the customer's theory, the vehicle came in with random misfires not a sensor issue which we addressed. He returned with a completely different problem unrelated to his random misfire issue. We advised him of the issue with the *** on his vehicle and he took it upon himself to replace it rather than pay us to do it and now he wants us to reprogram it at no charge for something we did not install. We offered to reprogram it at a discounted rate to help him and he refuses. We are happy to honor the previous offer at this location or at one of our other locations.

  6/20/2023 - Dropped the car off for an oil change. Sales rep called me and recommended air filter to be replaced and said that labor would be $10. When I went and paid for it it was closer to $100 for 10mins worth of work. Went back on 6/21 to ask about the drastic difference in price and was basically told off. Very disappointed in the lying and deceptive business practices.

  I reviewed the customer's account, he had been in for one visit. He had an oil change done, we recommended a CV Axle replacement and several fluid flushes based on the mileage of the vehicle which he declined. We did not recommend or sell him an air filter on his vehicle. ll us why here...

  The vehicle was brought in under the complainant's wife's name we called her for authorization for the brake service and filter replacement. We didn't speak to the complainant until after the repairs were made,there was an exact price quoted which she authorized. If she is dissatisfied we will be happy to give her a oil change and tire rotation at no charge the next time her vehicle needs it in the spirit of customer satisfaction.

  My car was taken in to Woodies on 3/16/2023 to be repaired. They replaced the engine. They charged me $10308.30 when I picked up the car on 5/9/2023. Approximately $1500 of that was not disclosed prior to 5/9/2023 and was not approved. The car didn't make it 5 miles before the transmission broke. It was taken back to the shop and has been there ever since. It is not driveable and I have requested multiple times for the charges to be voided or refunded until I can pick up a working car. The transmission is covered by a lifetime warranty - of which a total of $6725 is available to complete the transmission replacement. I don't have possession of the car, the repairs were not done correctly causing damage to my car that exceeds the value of the car. I have tried communicating with Woodies GM ************************* directly - but he has not responded since 6/8/2023. My disputes for the charges to Discover in the amount of $10308 have been to no avail and Woodies has been paid for the repairs that have not been done correctly and they continue to have possession of my car. I want refund of the $10308. IF I ever pick up my working vehicle - I would require an adjustment for the undisclosed work as well as a new invoice showing all the work done to my car with a new warranty on the work.

  We were unable to drive the vehicle when we received it due to it having no oil and coolant and not running. There was no way for us to tell if there was anything wrong with it before the engine was replaced per the customer's authorization. We test drove the vehicle after the repairs were completed and no check engine light was on and there were no history codes in the computer. The work we completed is still working correctly and is covered by a 12 month parts and labor warranty. Unfortunately the transmission is showing an internal failure and should be replaced. We have been working with the customer's warranty company to replace the transmission. During our testing for them we found an intermediate short in the engine wiring harness. With their help we were able to isolate the short and determine the transmission seemed to be ok but we needed to replace the harness and retest. We ordered a harness and replaced it at no charge to the customer. We have test driven the vehicle over the last several days and have notified the customer the vehicle is ready for pick up.

  I am rejecting this response because: they have been paid in full $10308.30, the Discover dispute has been closed. They HAVE NOT provided me with my car and threatened to not let me have it until I closed this dispute. Please see additional attached email exchanges for details. They did not contact me to disclose additional work since my last email with ****************** - and per his email from 6/20 - installed a "wiring harness" at no charge to me - without informing me or getting my approval. I have continued to dispute and continue to dispute the additional work shown on the invoice as AIR/FUEL Sensor in the amount of $1401.90 and the labor associated with. I was never given a written estimate for any of the work that has been done on my car by Woodies - and I did not waive that right. Unauthorized work was done. More than once. I will accept a partial refund in an amount to cover the undisclosed and unauthorized work. I have requested that they deliver my car to me if it is running as they say - as I have no transportation and they have had my car since 3/16/2023. I am awaiting a response from the General Manager, **************************

  As far as the Air Fuel Sensor we had phone authorization from her husband, who was quoted for the work. If she wants a refund if she brings us back the vehicle we will install her original unit on the vehicle and refund her money. I would caution her if that is done the check engine light will come back on and the vehicle will not operate correctly, this will void the warranty for the engine we just replaced. This was not part of the original estimate, the vehicle was brought to our shop from another repair facility with no oil or coolant in it and not running. We were able to get the engine running for a very short time and determined the engine had a severe connecting rod knock. We quoted a price for a used engine replacement which the customer approved. Once the engine was replaced it had a several diagnostic codes relating to the Air Fuel Sensor, we tested it and confirmed it was bad. We quoted a price to her husband which he approved. We test drove the vehicle and checked for current and pending codes and returned the vehicle to the customer.They returned with several diagnostic codes relating to the transmission which all indications lead us to believe the transmission had internal damage. The customer had a warranty thru another company, there were several delays caused by the warranty company requesting additional information and testing. During this testing we found one of the wires in the engine wiring harness even though it tested ok had an internal short which caused the transmission to show an internal failure. Since this was part of the original engine replacement we replaced the harness at no charge to the customer. We test drove the vehicle several times to make sure the vehicle was operating properly, the vehicle was returned to the customer.

  I am rejecting this response because: Although I was able to pick up my vehicle finally, after they required my husband to wait 45 minutes before they would unblock my car, we never received a written estimate, the labor has not been itemized and we were not advised of the price for the air/fuel sensor and we DID NOT approve the air/fuel sensor work to be done. While I appreciate the offer, I would not be interested in them doing any further work on my car. Perhaps better communication from Woodies over the 4 months they had my car could have de-escalated the situation. Or while they were "working with the warranty company". My resolution would include a refund for the air/fuel sensor & related labor.

  We will be happy to install the customer's original Air Fuel Sensor (we still have the original unit) at no charge to her and give her a full refund for it.  We do not complete repairs without customer authorization.

  On his first visit he had a rattling noise in the rear of the vehicle the rear shocks were worn out and rattling. We replaced them after quoting the repair to the customer. On his next visit 38 days later he told us of a noise in the front of the vehicle we found the front brakes below spec at less than 2 mm and some noise was coming from the front struts, again we quoted a price and the customer authorized the repair for the brakes only. We have reached out to the customer on 4/12/23 and are waiting for him to contact us. All repairs are covered by a 3 year / ****** mile National Warranty, we are more that happy to check the vehicle to see if there is any problems with the work we completed. The noise in the front of the vehicle may be coming from the worn front struts that he declined the repair on but we are happy to check and verify for him at no charge.

  This is in reference to Woodies Auto at Mallard Creek and my appointment that occurred on March 20th, 2023. Beyond their outrageous prices, the unprofessionalism is unmatched at any business establishment I have seen. Lets start with this.in front of me, God d*mn was said by an employee at the customer ********************** desk and including that he didnt like my car model; after that, they didnt know I could hear them in that waiting room area where they chose to use the f word constantly and other curse words in the front customer ********************** area. Then, after a customer called, the employee at the front desk said after he got off the phone, he sounded like he was wasting my God-d*mn time. Mind you, I was in the waiting area where there is a wall and glass doors and I was hearing all of it. Later on, one did some sort of accent. I called them out on their unprofessionalism and let them know I could hear EVERYTHING through the wall. The one employee smirked and I said how much unprofessionalism each of them were exhibiting; I also asked who was the manager on duty and an employee who was present when it happened said me and I said you allow this to happen while you are here? To which he said I dont know what Im allowing to happen. When I gave him specific examples and let him know I will let the owner know about this (including the making fun of a customer), he told me to go ahead. I called their corporate office several times and the ************* up on me the first time I got him on the phone. The associate who directs the calls said I did a post on NextDoor for attention, and that I was beating a dead horse. I have no resolution, no apology, and I still dont know why I was charged nearly $280 for an oil change and brake fluid. *** attached numerous of other complaints against this particular location. I ask that you investigate their business practices and help me find a resolution. Ive sent 3 e-mails to the owner, **** Woodie, and have not received anything.

  We take every customer's concerns very seriously and investigate each one to determine what happened and how we can improve our service and reduce any mistakes we make. In my fifty years of customer ************************ have never experienced a situation like this one. The customer did call in to complain mostly about what she overheard the employees saying. Two of the employees were on the phone with other customers so we were able to listen to the phone conversations. We found nothing offensive was said and our employees were polite and professional. I also interviewed all of the employees individually and each one had the same comments. They noted the customer seemed fine when she came in but as she came out to pay for the service, she was loud and argumentative. I did speak to the customer on the phone and listened to her concerns. As she spoke, she became louder, verbally abusive and argumentative to the point I had to hold the phone away from my ear to understand what she was saying. I was unable to speak at all during the conversation and, unfortunately,I finally did have to hang up on her. She had called each of our 14 ********* locations numerous times before and after our conversation continuing her behavior. She called our office number over 20 times repeatedly. It was so bad we had to block her number. This if the first time in my career I feel there is absolutely nothing we can do to help this customer and would ask her to take her vehicle somewhere else for service.

  I am rejecting this response because: this is false information. I ask that the BBB send a FOIA request for the telephone calls. This response also came from the ** who hung up on me and refused to take my phone calls. I find it highly unprofessional how they handle this and would request the BBB step in and investigate the numerous of complaints against this business. I fully request an apology and refund from this business. I also was not verbally abusive; I called seeking an answer and was not given one. They continuously avoided my phone calls in hopes to sweep this under the rug. This company has a strong history based on allegations I found of being demeaning to women in particular and there are over claims from others of price gouging. I ask that this manner is elevated to the actual owner, **** Woodie, and not the **.

  As I mentioned in the prior response we take every customer's concerns very seriously and investigate each one to determine what happened and how we can improve our service and reduce any mistakes we make. We did check the pricing of the service the customer paid for and found we were significantly lower than what the dealer charged for the same service. I found nothing offensive said our employees were polite and professional. I also interviewed all the employees individually and each one had the same comments. They noted the customer seemed fine when she came in but as she came out to pay for the service, she was loud and argumentative. I did speak to the customer on the phone and listened to her concerns the longer she spoke the louder and argumentative and verbally abusive she became to the point I had to hold the phone away from my ear to understand what she was saying. I was unable to get a word in the conversation and I finally did have to hang up on her . I apologize for hanging up on her but we do not tolerate verbally abusive customers.  We are a professional organization that has proudly served the ********* and surrounding communities for over 60 years. The business has grown the way it has building relationships with all of our customers, this growth would not have happened if we treated them as this customer alleges.

  The dates of my transactions was 8/5-9. 8/16-19, and 8/24-26, for the same thing. My check engine light was on so I took my car to Woodies on *********.********* **. I had to come by three times and was charged a total of *******. $508.72, the first trip, and $594.15 on the second trip. On the third trip, they discovered it was the gas cap, which was a $10 fix.

  Complaint Case number ******** Amount $1102.87
  
  The customer came in on 8/5/22 with a check engine light on with codes P0451 and P0441 both referring to the evaporative emission system.We addressed the P0451 code first and told the customer we needed to start with replacing the **** Pressure Sensor first since the P0451 code often sets the other code at the same time and that the P0441 code might come back and set the check engine light after it was driven. We quoted a price and the customer approved the work. We told him with a evaporative system leak it must be driven in order have the readiness monitors reset if the light comes back on we would recheck it for him at no charge. He came back in several days later with the P0441 code and the check engine light on. We retested the system at no charge and found the canister purge vale and vent solenoid both were leaking. These were different components than were addressed during the first visit which failed with the increased pressure of the sensor we initially replaced. We called and quoted a price for the repair and the customer authorized it. He came back in several days later with completely different code of P0455 gross evaporative leak , we tested the system again at no charge and found the gas cap was not allowing pressure to build in the system. Since this was the third trip in we replaced the gas cap at no charge to the customer.  This is an unfortunate situation for the customer and we can certainly understand his frustration.  While he make think it was the gas cap causing all his issue that is not the case. The code on his last repair is not the codes we addressed when the sensor, solenoid and valve were replaced. The testing for finding his additional issues and replacing the gas cap was done at no charge to him. If the customer is having a problem we will be happy to check it for him at no charge all of our repairs carry a 36 month / ****** mile national warranty.

  We apologize for the multiple trips but when there are two separate diagnostic codes a primary and a secondary code standard procedure is address the primary code first (which in some cases will address the secondary code as well) and complete a drive cycle to see if the secondary code comes back on.The customer needed his vehicle and it was explained to him the possibility of the light coming back on. The light did indeed come back on at which point we tested the system again at no charge to him. On his last visit we found the gas cap had failed to hold a seal and set a completely different code unrelated to his previous visits as a customer satisfaction gesture we tested the vehicle and replaced the gas cap at no charge to him.  All of our repairs carry a 36 month / ****** mile national warranty.

  In late July 2022, I brought my vehicle in to replace front brake pads and rotors and have rear brake drums flushed. Within 3 days I heard large squeaking in the brakes, EVERY TIME I STOPPED AT LIGHT. I do a lot of driving and use my vehicle for work. Some times I drive 300 miles per day. I returned to vehicle to ******* within 1-2 weeks. They told me they visually inspected the brakes and drove the vehicle around the block and nothing was wrong. They said this took them about 15 minutes to determine. Within a few hours I had my vehicle back. Several weeks later, I brought the car into ****** Dealership and was given a video showing, Front rotors had heat spots, the senior tech attributed to aftermarket brake pads put on the car by ************************ on ******************************************************. ****** technician also showed in the video, on the front driver's side a mounting bolt was missing which connects the *** wire sensor and Brake Hose. It was also rubbing against the axle & the ball joint needed to be mounted correctly. This cost me an additional $875. The battery needed to be replaced, so that was part of the cost. On 8.23.2022 I spoke with ****, who identified himself as the manger of ******************* Service at ***********************. He admitted to using aftermarket brake pads, but claimed they have done fine for the last 10+ years ******* has used them. He claimed the pads are under warranty and he could simply "replace them". However, these are clearly defective and were the CAUSE of break issues and stopping on my vehicle. ****** took a video, which I posses showing these defects. It was told me, that a junior level mechanic should be able to spot these defects. The work was obviously very shoddy. I believe I should have the monies I paid at ***** returned to me. I also believe ******* Auto Service is using cheap parts and charging very high rates of labor to make a profit.

  Business Response

  Date: 08/24/2022

  The brake pads and rotors we use meet or exceed the original equipment specifications and they are covered by a National 3 year or ****** mile warranty which is over triple the industry standard of 12 months or ****** miles. It is most likely due to the type of driving the customer does the pads were not broken in correctly which can cause hot spot and noise related problems. Under normal conditions vehicles are driven 15 to 20 miles a day and then allowed to cool off after a couple of days the pads will properly seat in.Wheel temperatures can reach over 500 degrees on extended travel times, braking should be very light under these conditions for the first 500 to 700 miles.Using medium to hard pressure braking under these types of conditions after installing new brakes can cause the problems the customer has experienced. With that being explained we have a couple options for the customer to choose from.If he has the brake pads and rotors replaced somewhere else he can bring the brake pads and rotors we installed for a full refund for the parts and labor for them or we will replace the pads and rotors for him at no charge under warranty.

  I am rejecting this response because:
  
  Sincerely, 

  the work performed by the technician was sub-par. The business NEVER addressed the missing bolt holding the *** sensor and brake hose. This was causing a big problem. Nice try attempting to place the blame on me and my driving habits. Your unprofessional. I noticed after the AFTERMARKET pads were discarded, the noise went away. Im leaving the ****** review and will never use ****** again. You perform sub-par work
