      Took my car in for repairs. It's been 2 months and they have no answer for me. All they can tell me is that it's haunted. I've already spent money on supposed fixes, but they haven't solved the issue. They don't provide any updates and it's very difficult to get a hold of anyone. ** was supposed to call me but hasn't. They're dragging so they can keep milking money on service or so they can sell me a new car at a markup

      Took my car to Larry H Miller in Highlands Ranch Nov. 2 2024
      Was told by Brandon that it would take at least a week for diagnostic. Sent me diagnostic on Nov. 4 saying that the timing chain was bad along with other parts associated with the timing chain. He also said that after the warranty company approved it they would have to order the parts which could take 3 days and then about 48 hours to repair.
      I talked to Missy one of the managers who said she would take care of the situation and call me back because I was not able to get a response from the tech. She did not call me back. She gave me her direct number and when I tried to call it she never answered.
      Brandon called me and said they still needed an answer from the warranty company.
      On Monday November 25, Brandon called and said they noticed metal flakes all over the engine when looking which meant the engine needed to be replaced due to the timing chain being bad for a very long time and an appraiser from the warranty company would need to come out.
      I have also been working with Ken, service manager. He has done more than anyone else but even he is very hard to get ahold of. On Friday November 29, after being told that the warranty company was going to come out I was told that they still have not come out and that Ken needed to talk to Brandon. He also told me that he would try and get me a rental car that would be covered for 5 days.
      I finally got ahold of Ken on Tuesday November 3rd in the morning, he said the warranty company never scheduled a time to come look at my car. He said as soon as he talked to them he would call and give me an update. He never called me back and I called 11 times with no answer. I have called a total of 57 times in the month and a half that they have had my car after being told originally that it would only be a week or 2. Every time I do talk to someone I get a different answer or a different timeline.
      They have had my car for almost 6 weeks.

      car not fixed or diagnosis. we purchased a car, and the initial inspection was done, we have been having issues with the steering and alignment. we took it in for diagnosis on 11/26 they said they needed the care all day. i dropped it off at 8 am and did not hear anything from them so i called at 2pm and the *** told me they were still working on trying to find the problem and they couldn't find one at the time and they would test drive it. they called back and said they found nothing. we picked up the car and our dash cam recorded that the car sat in the parking lot for 9-2 pm so they were not working on the car at all, at 2:30 it was noted it was test drove on and that was it. they never looked at my car. this place is a scam

      My 2021 ****** Highlander Hybrid was damaged in an accident February 6, 2024 and was delivered to Larry H. Miller Collision East six weeks later for repairs. I was told at the time the repair would take 3-4 months, but the shop has now had my car for eight months and the work is still not complete. Not only that, but the collision shop has on three occasions told me the car would be ready within a week, and neither time has the company completed the repairs. Each time, they have failed to follow up with phone calls or updates. I've given up on communicating with them directly and have, instead, asked my insurance company, *****, to call on my behalf. This past Friday, Nov. 22, an Amica representative informed me she had called the collision shop and had been told the vehicle's bumper had been damaged (no details as to how) and that the repair would have to wait until new parts come in. I'm beside myself. Larry Miller Collision East has had my car for unacceptable length of time; is non communicative and non responsive, while continually making excuses for its delays in completing the work. Amica, to date, has paid the collision shop $2,290.07 and also issued me a check for $23,383.34, which I will pay on completion of the job. But I want my car back in new condition as they promised. If Larry H. Miller Collision East is incapable of completing the work, I'd like them to total my vehicle so that I may purchase a new one. The fact that they have had it for eight months and still can't seem to commit to a completion date is inexcusable.

      Hello ********,

      Thank you for bringing your concerns to our attention. We truly understand how frustrating and inconvenient this process has been thus far, and we appreciate your patience as we continue to work to complete the repairs on your vehicle.

      We want to provide some context regarding the delays and steps weve taken to ensure that your vehicle receives the highest level of care:

      - When the vehicle arrived at our shop, it was identified as needing extensive repairs totaling over $26,000. Given the complexity of the repairs and the specialized nature of some components, we transferred the vehicle to one of our sister locations, American ******, to ensure it received the best possible attention, particularly for hybrid-specific systems. These transfers, to and from, account for a large part of the unexpected delay you experienced.
      - After the vehicle returned to us in early October, it was determined that additional parts were necessary to finalize the repairs, including replacing the windshield. Shipping and delivery of these additional parts is another reason for the delay youve experienced.
      - At this stage, on 12/05/24, nearly all repairs have been completed. There is only one outstanding part that is on order, awaiting delivery, and we are committed to ensuring the vehicle is fully functional and in excellent condition before its return. To this end, we plan to perform thorough detailing and conduct extensive test drives to verify that everything is operating as it should.

      Regarding communication issues, we sincerely apologize. When calling the phone number that we have on file from when we received the vehicle initially, it would ring to a disconnected line. We have updated this information with the number provided in your complaint. Now that we have updated contact information, our team will be reaching out to you directly to keep you informed as we finalize the repairs.

      Our current estimate for returning the vehicle is mid-next week, pending the arrival of the final part and completion of the detailing and test drive.

      Our goal is to ensure your satisfaction and confidence in the repairs. If you have any further questions or concerns, please dont hesitate to reach out to us directly.


      Sincerely,

      ***** *****

      Complaint: 22605962

      I am rejecting this response because: Larry Millers response to my complaint reads like just another string of excuses identical to those Ive been getting for months now. It seems to me that the Larry H. Miller Collision East shop is very good at circling the wagons and then declaring the wagon train is moving forward in a straight line. 


      Im at the end of my rope. The response claims the hybrid issue greatly extended the time necessary to complete the repairs, yet when I talked with a representative at Larry H. Miller ****** in ***********, I was told the car was in the their shop for only about ***** days to complete the hybrid repair. In addition, the response to my complaint about communications states that they had the wrong phone number for me. Strange, then, that I had previously received two phone calls from Larry H. Miller Collision East stating that my car would be ready in a few days. To date, counting the response to my BBB complaint and two conversations with my insurance company, I have now been told five times that the car was nearly ready. The latest excuse is that I need a new windshield; prior to that it was that I needed a new bumper because, apparently, the bumper was damaged while in the possession of Larry H. Miller Collision East. 


      My car has now been out for repairs for roughly the length of a typical pregnancy; this is simply unacceptable. The car has been parked outside with neither shade nor protection from the hot ********** sun for most of the past 8+ months. In addition, the car has not been driven which, I would guess, is not good for the tires, the engine or anything else important to operating a motor vehicle. At this point, I can not trust that the repairs will be completed in a professional manner that meets industry standards.


      Heres my proposed solution: Larry H. Miller should purchase the vehicle from me for full retail price. If this cannot be worked out, then it must be returned to me with a complete certified mechanical inspection. In addition, Larry H. Miller Collision East should pay the past five months of insurance premiums on my vehicle the approximate length of time beyond the original estimate I was given of 3-4 months. I dont know how I could be reasonably expected to consider anything less.

      Our car has been with the ************************ since August 31st, and now it is November 25th and we still do not have a vehicle. **** ********* was in charge of our car and was given our ******* extended warranty information on September 15th. Communication from him was sparse; he often said he would do something and update me the following day, only to not hear back from him for a week or for us to have to contact first. In the last week of October we were assured our car would be done by the first week of November. After no updates again, we called on November 5th and were informed that **** no longer worked there and that he had been lying to us the whole time and hadn't even started the process of working out the extended warranty. Now a new employee, ****, has been in charge of our car, but the communication from him has also been sparse. On November 12th, we were told that our car would be done by November 22nd, but then on Novemeber 20th we were told that it wouldn't be ready until the first week of December, ruining our Thanksgiving plans. Since then, I have gotten ahold of a service employee, a phone operator, and a sales manager, all of whom have passed my number along to ******, the assistant sales manager, assuring me that she would call me right back or call me the next day. She still has not. We are a single car household and have been without a vehicle for over 3 months now. We do not have a washer and dryer in our apartment, so we have had to pay for Ubers just to do our laundry, and we have lost many opportunities and have been majorly inconvenienced. The fact that nothing happened for almost 2 months is unacceptable and a major management problem. We have been majorly inconvenienced by this, and the gross neglect, lack of communication, and straight up lying coming from the service department is unacceptable. We have spoken to legal council and have been told by a lawyer that we have a very strong small claims case because of all of this.

      I traded my truck in and was told they would give me $******. They also told me I wouldn't have to make another payment on the loan. I have received notices from my lender that the payment wasn't made, and it would affect my credit. I have emailed, called and I still haven't received my payment of ******, and they haven't paid off my loan.

      I mistakenly took my jeep to this location on 10/19/24, for a simple oil change. This was a scheduled appointment and I was still there about 2.5 hours. During this time I was in their waiting room and they somehow got into an accident with my vehicle??! Honestly, I dont even know if the oil change was done. My jeep sounded worse when I left than when I came. The oil wasnt completely full, and my jeep still says it needs an oil change. This company at least reattached my license plate and said they would call me on Monday. I still have not gotten a call. I have left a bunch of messages, including one to the general manager and the company will not return the calls so clearly does not have any intention on fixing the damage that they caused.

      This business isn't exactly being truthful.  I am unaware of my voicemail being full and my phone didn't show record of the business trying to contact me prior to me reporting this incident to BBB.  I had made many attempts and never heard back.  Once I notified the company I contacted BBB, I instantly got a voicemail from this company.  

      I was told they had a loaner so I needed to drop off me car that day.  I live 60 miles away and couldn't do it that day.  I asked how long it would take for the repairs and was told 2-3 weeks.  I asked why it would take so long, and then they said it would only take 2-3 days.  I really don't trust anything this business says or trust that my car won't be in worse shape after I bring it to them at this point.  I haven't even gotten an apology that this happened.

      Unfortunately, my car lost value from this incident. But, more importantly, I lost all trust in this company.  I would like my car fixed, or the money from the value I lost in the accident, but I need more than a days' notice to get there.

      In March 2024, my wife's car stalled on the highway, forcing her to call a tow truck and have it taken to LHM ****** Boise for repair. Upon arrival, she informed the service team that the engine had vibrated and died suddenly, causing her to coast to the side of the road. The service representative claimed that she had simply run out of gas, even though the car displayed 70 miles left to empty. Despite her explanation, they convinced her that a tune-up was necessary. After spending $1,200 on the suggested fix, the same issue occurred again in October 2024, with the car displaying the same "70 miles left to empty." This time, I advised her to stay put while I brought fuel. The car started without any problems after refueling. I visited *** to discuss the situation, mentioning known recall issues with fuel pumps in ****** vehicles from around 2016 that exhibited similar symptoms. I questioned how they so quickly determined that a tune-up was the solution back in March 2024, despite these known issues. The service agent told me the problem was "complicated," which left me wondering how a non-mechanic like myself could find common fuel pump issues online, yet their team seemed unaware or unwilling to consider this possibility. I feel that your team failed to thoroughly investigate the real problem and instead jumped to an easy conclusion, assuming my wife had simply run out of gas and convincing her that a tune-up would resolve the issues. We have an appointment with your team on 15 November to allow your team to further address the issue.

I drove this truck maybe 10 miles before it broke down wont start and is making a loud fan noise coming from the radiator area along with the thermostat gauge not working. I traded my truck for this truck to put some money in the bank for my family. I have three kids and a wife and Im unemployed going through police training. The dealership refuses to help me every time I call they transfer me to voicemail. All I want is for them to fix my vehicle so I can continue on with my life.

      I am writing to formally express my dissatisfaction regarding the service I received from your sales representative, ****, during the process of registering my vehicle. When my spouse and I communicated our intention to register the vehicle in ***** rather than **********, we expected clear guidance on the registration process. Unfortunately, **** failed to explain the registration guidelines adequately. Although he mentioned some limitations, he specifically told me that I could not register the vehicle immediately. But I am confident I would remember a conversation indicating we would be restricted in this way. Given the current circumstancesliving in ********** with my family for childcare support while my spouse is deployed and caring for three children under four, including a newbornthis lack of clarity created significant complications. Traveling seven hours one way to register the vehicle for a second time is not a feasible option given the circumstances. It has now been two weeks since our initial interaction, and today I had to reach out to the titling department at Larry H. Miller, where I spoke with ********. She had to search for the paperwork and only then began the registration process, despite being informed that this would be handled by the dealership. This lack of clarity has resulted in a financial loss for us, as I missed out on $300-400 in registration fees that could have been waived due to my VA disability. Additionally, while **** mentioned that the dealership assist with the vehicle inspection, both my spouse and I were aware that we were responsible for completing this step ourselves. ******** clarified this aspect, which further highlighted the inconsistencies in the information provided to us. It is crucial for customers to receive accurate information during such important processes. If a representative is unsure about the guidelines, they should take the initiative to seek clarification rather than providing incorrect information.

      Hello ******,

      We are sorry to hear the registration process has not met your expectations. Out of state registrations can be a little more difficult, relying on motor vehicle divisions that we rarely work with. Based on your purchase date we should have your registration completed well within the 30-day window you received a temporary tag for. As far as a registration credit you may be entitled to, we will be reaching out to you for more information so we can complete this process for you. 

      Thank you for your business, we appreciate your constructive criticism, and we will continue our efforts to provide the level of service you should expect.

      Complaint: 22499581

      I'm following up on the ongoing issues surrounding my vehicles registration and titling. I spoke with the titling department yesterday and, unfortunately, received no apology or even a call from the General Manager regarding the situation. While I understand there is a 30-day window for registration, I initiated contact on October 30th to ensure everything was on track. At that time, it appeared that the registration process had not even startedClarissa had to locate the paperwork herself, only beginning the process then.
      Further compounding the delay, the El Paso office did not receive the paperwork until November 4-6, and the payment submitted was short by $11. Although you mentioned this would be overnighted, as of today, November 13, the tax office confirms they have yet to receive the funds. With my temporary plate expiring on November 17, this situation leaves me at risk of driving with an expired plate, which is unacceptable.
      There was also some misunderstanding with the titling department. I understand that I am responsible for certain parts of the registration process if I use my DV benefits. But we were not informed the dealership was going to be responsible for doing the registration process for us. The representative was aware that its a 7-hour one-way drive for me to handle registration in *******, and I intended to process the paperwork within five days of purchase. However, I was not informed that due to the lien, I would be unable to complete the paperwork myselfa critical piece of information that was not communicated to me at the time of purchase.
      Given the circumstances, I am requesting urgent clarification on when my registration will be completed and assurance that my temporary plate expiration will not result in any legal issues on my part.

      Sincerely,

      ****** *******

      Hello ******,

      ******** has contacted you multiple times regarding your registration. She last spoke with you yesterday, 11/13/2024 where you both tracked the registration package and confirmed it was delivered at 9:01 am in *******, ***

      We have spoken to the ***** office in *******, ** and confirmed the registration should be completed tomorrow, 11/15/2024. They have asked that we call them tomorrow at 3:30pm to verify its completion. In the event the registration is not delivered to us by the time your temp tag expires we can provide you with an MVR verifying your vehicle is registered. 

      At this point we feel we have been very responsive and accommodating, working very hard to complete an out of state registration in a timely fashion.
