You will be able to see from the photos attached, it was not worth this amount of money. The job was not done completely or properly. ***** arrived and went about his business as usual. Got right into cleaning. My wife and I even came out to discuss getting our Audi A7 detailed completely and on to a yearly package. He went back to work on the Navigator. When the job was completed, the outside looked good at first appearance. But as we looked at the car, the mink oil treatment for the leather seats was uneven and not completed on all seats, the interior of the doors was not completed properly and uneven in the treatment application, the engine compartment had not been touched as there was still pine needles sitting on our engine and you can see from the pictures that were the hood closes wasn’t cleaned at all. Not even wiped down. The back of our car had not been washed as pointed out by our 8yo. The area around our hitch cover still had the same dirt on it as before he started cleaning, the windshield had streaks and smears, the inside fender wells were not cleaned, the under side of the car was not pressure washed, the seals were not treated and I would highly doubt the “ceramic coating” was put on. In fact, I sent a picture to the Lincoln dealer at how poorly their detail job was, and one of the photos was of the charging port cubby next to the driver. It was in the exact same condition when ***** left. We do not mind spending money to have things done for us. But we do expect things to be done properly. When I text ***** about the condition of the vehicle he called me, and immediately was making excuses about the engine and underside of car being “extras” and that he could come wipe down the spots he missed.Business Response

We are going to keep our reply about Mr.
**** ******** short and to the point. Mr. ******** was fully aware of the price
for his vehicle. Mr. ******** was provided the price via phone when called to
confirm his appointment request. His remark via phone to our sales specialists
was “I purchased this vehicle as a demo certified new vehicle from the
dealership. I am very unhappy with this dealership I bought it from. They never
cleaned it upon delivery and they will be paying for it” Our specialists
covered our yearly package prices for autos via phone with Mr. ********. Mr.
******** stated he only wanted a onetime service since the dealership is paying
for the cost to detail. Price of $899.99 was given via phone and not $599.99. (please
see signed and approved invoice after services and job was covered by our
specialist. Mr. ******** approved this
service with NONE of these issues or complaints until days later) Mr. ******** is providing pricing for a yearly discounted price for an XL SUV and not for a
XXL SUV (which is his vehicles size). This vehicle is twice the size of the XL
SUV. Plus Mr. ******** only wanted a onetime service which does not receive the
extra discount for yearly discounted package plans as noted on our website and
specialists via phone. This is just ONE of the several false and untrue
statements Mr. ******** made. We won’t go into detail with every false
statement Mr. **** ******** has made in his posts and emails. What we will tell
you is the dealership also reported to us that Mr. ******** is causing them the
same grief trying to extort money from them. This is very disappointing there
are people out there like this that try to take advantage of businesses.
Attention businesses be VERY cautious performing ANY services for Mr. Mike
******** from Powell Ohio. Note: Mr. **** ******** pictures submitted are days
later. Many pictures shown are the underside of vehicle, hinges and other areas
not within areas detailed and or covered within this package.
Mr. **** ******** has been very Unreasonable and untruthful
about this whole situation.Customer Answer

Complaint: 21431767
I am rejecting this response because:As you can see on the receipts attached, he states all of the items were completed. From the pictures previously attached and each line item addressed below, he has not performed the services charged for under the receipt he supplied. Additionally, he has now gone so far as to forge my signature on an invoice that was only provided to me as a detailed receipt for a car dealership. I never signed the invoice nor did I email it, or fax it back to him.

When reviewing the complete filing and responses. Our company and or our associate have never
changed, added or altered their responses like Mr. **** ******** has. You can see this in all the attached emails,
social media responses and proof of harassment. As noted from the beginning and saved on file. If Mr. **** ******** was SO unhappy with his
services. Why did he not only pay for
the services rendered during that visit but also set up a regular detailing
service with same associate that detailed his vehicle. (Yet Mr. **** ******** states
to belittle this associate in this most current response) Then Mr. **** ******** contacts us days later with a full email of several items he said we
missed, which included even not washing the vehicle? (see list attached) Then
the list and additions just kept escalating from there when Mr. **** ******** didn’t
receive a full refund from us. The issues
go on and on from there and this harassment yet continues. If this was a norm for our business and or
our associates. We would have not been
in the business for 30+ years and our associate which detailed Mr. Mike
********’s vehicle as well. Unfortunately
for every business there is always that one customer that you are not going to
make happy no matter what. This is the
case here. At Speedy K’s we are going to
continue to always offer great service to our new and continued customers.Customer Answer

Complaint: 21431767
I am rejecting this response because: The claims and accusations in the response are not accurate. The issue here is the failure to perform the services outlined in the complaint. The evidence provided in the complaint show the lack of services being performed. Each photo is date and time stamped with location in the Photo RAW Data and his response and accusations to when and where the photos are taken are false. He was asked to come fix the issues and complete his paid for services. His attitude and blame was shirked. His opportunity to offer to come and "wipe down the car" was denied. We asked for all services we paid for to be completed. That has not been done. The company failure to respond to Ohio Attorney General and now the Better Business Bureau has been nothing short of concerning for a company in the customer service industry. Engaging in any calls to a dealership representative and any exchange of any information regarding our purchase would be a blatant violation of our privacy laws. The replication of my signature was unauthorized.Due to the fact we have not been able to resolve this matter without legal means, we filed a lawsuit against Speedy K's and ***** Schatz this morning in Delaware County Municipal Court.
