      I am responding to the complaint that we have received from *****************************, Complaint ID ********.  ***************** and ********************************* purchased a 2019 ****** ****** on September 5, 2022.  I have attached all service records for this vehicle as well as the Auto Check that was provided to the customer at the time of signing.  The vehicle was serviced and inspected by our mechanic before the car was delivered and the customer had stopped in as well after the purchase regarding the window concern in which she declined window repair, which is also included in the service records attached as well.  Please feel free to contact us back if any further information is needed.

      Bought a used 2019 ****** ****** from them. When salesman showed us car he did mention that the emergency front crash warning system light was on but assured us it was Nothing to be concerned about and it just needed a reset, which he claimed they could not do, but when I called a local ****** dealer about the problem the mechanic laughed at me when I told him what the sales person said about warning system light being on not being a problem and the ****** dealership mechanic told me it can cause problems with braking system if its on and that the dealership car was bought from should of done the right thing and properly handled the issue prior to selling car to me. Hornbeck knew there was something wrong in emergency breaking system cause of warning light being on but lied to me about it and brushed off my concerns about it! Just a few days ago I was driving about 30-35mph down a 2 lane street headed home when suddenly my emergency braking system engaged itself and brought my car to a nearly immediate stop in the center of the road i was thrust forward even though i was wearing my seatbelt! Luckily there were no cars infront of or behind me at the time this happened and my kids were not in car! I was to scared to drive the car the rest of the way home so I called my husband to come help me. Ever since this I am deathly afraid to drive that car but often don't have a choice. I have reported this occurrence to the ***** and have also issued a complaint against ****** through the BBB. I will post about this anywhere I can to warn people. This is an issue that is definately a safety issue, not only for those in the car having issue but for other drivers as well! Light I mentioned previously is below in pic.

      Good Afternoon,

      I am responding to the complaint that was made by *********************************** regarding a 2019 ****** ****** that she purchased from us this past July 2022.  I am attaching copies of the repairs that we did on this vehicle as none of these bring to our attention the issue of an emergency front  crash warning system light being on.  Please review attached copies and let me know if there is anything further I can assist with!

      I have been in contact with Nicole W********* of finance at hornbeck Chevrolet since April 2022 to try to cancel an extended warranty. She had no problem getting me my gap insurance back but refuses to answer my calls and emails about the extended warranty cancellation.

      I was in contact with ************** on August 23, 2022 stating that **** would not cancel the vehicle service contract because it was not a total loss or repossession. I then emailed him again on September 15, 2022 stating the same response stated in the August 23 response.

       Complaint: ********

      I am rejecting this response because: in the service contract it says I'm a cancel at any time and it would cost me $50 it said nothing about the car being totaled or repossessed I sold the car therefore I'm trying to get some of my money out of my warranty back furthermore there was no email sent on behalf of hornbeck Chevrolet.
