  June 26th- I brought my 2019 Jeep in for a check-up on a radio not working. What the dealer found was that my radio did not have the proper updates. They did the manufacture update(which is free from Jeep) and then charged me $280. After 2 hours the radio stopped working again.

  I leased my **** from this dealer in 2021, had a 3-year warranty, and I only went to this dealership for any inspections, repairs, or service. The warranty expired mid-July 2024.I tried to get an appt for an after-warranty oil change, but they never confirmed the appt or got back to me, so I went to see a mechanic near me. He was the owner and had experience working in dealerships. While he was changing the oil, he showed me that the Jeep was having large leaks on BOTH gaskets and while he couldn't prove it, he suggested that the dealership MIGHT have skipped calling this out till after the warranty ran out to be fixed then.He also suggested I don't fix it with him, but go back to the dealership and ask for a Goodwill claim. Even though it was less than 1 year beyond warranty, he knew I had only gone to the dealership for previous service. He also said that most dealerships take videos of *************** should request videos from previous visits there. I had him take pics of the leaks, so I had those for records.DATES:04.01.25: Visited the new mechanic (*****) for the oil ******************** of that service is above.04.06.25: Emailed ***** (Service Director) with all the details/pics, asked for a Goodwill claim for repairs. (No answer)04.17.25: Follow-up email (no answer)05.05.25 /05.06.25: Reached out to ***** (Service advisor) who usually helped me out when I came in for service. Messaged him through their postal. (no answer) 05.11.25: Emailed ***** ******* (General Manager), ******* ***** (General *************** (to generic customer care address). NO answers from ********* reiterate 1) I know it is less than 1 year from warranty, but this is a large repair and ***** said Goodwill claims are best way to go.2) Known Jeep issue 3) I have had NO RESPONSES, and that is very annoying. PLUS, no response to my request for video records.

  Purchased a used truck from the dealership in 3/25, the dealership uses predatory sales tactics to increase listed sales price by upwards of 7-8 thousand dollars for things like LoJack that they force you to pay for even if you dont want it equipped on the vehicle. After finally agreeing on a price and putting 3/4 of the purchase price down in cash, I asked to finance the remainder through my pre-approved lender. The dealership then decided without asking for my consent, to apply me for a loan with a different lender. Without my knowledge or permission. Then after purchasing the truck they have repeatedly harassed me for my social security card, despite being given my social security number. I informed them of the lender needed this information, they would be contacting me directly, and I will not be providing it. They then went on to message and friend request my wife on ********, and message her, as I was no longer responding to their requests. I feel this behavior is violently unprofessional and unbecoming. The way this dealership conducts themselves is disgusting.

  We are writing to address the complaint filed by Mr. **** ***** regarding his recent vehicle purchase. We want to clarify several points raised in his complaint.

  Firstly, the vehicle purchased by Mr. ***** included a WayPoint GPS system, not a LoJack. This was clearly documented in the sales agreement. Secondly, the agreed-upon purchase price for the vehicle was $799, not in the range of seven to eight thousand dollars as Mr. ***** alleges. This price was explicitly stated and agreed upon in the purchase contract signed by Mr. ************************* Mr. ***** stated that he had a pre-approved auto loan through his own bank. However, upon submission of his information, it was discovered that this was not the case. As a result, our finance team worked to secure financing for Mr. ***** through one of our lending partners.  Mr. ***** was explicitly informed that the lending institution that approved his car loan required a copy of his social security card, both front and back, as part of their verification process. He stated that he would provide this documentation to us. Despite multiple attempts by our finance team to contact Mr. ***** over a period of ten days, we did not receive the requested information. It was only after Mr. ***** was instructed to return the vehicle due to the inability to finalize financing without the required social security card documentation that he finally provided the requested information. Following the initial lack of response from Mr. ****** our team contacted the references he provided to confirm that we had the correct contact information on file for him.

  We believe these clarifications address the inaccuracies in Mr. ******* complaint. We have documentation to support the agreed-upon purchase price and the inclusion of the WayPoint GPS system. The issues encountered with his initial financing claim and the subsequent request for his social security card were necessary steps in the loan approval process with the ultimately approved lender, of which Mr. ***** was made aware. The delay in receiving the required documentation directly impacted our ability to finalize the financing in a timely manner.

  We are committed to transparent and ethical business practices and are disappointed that Mr. ******* recollection of these events differs from our documented records. We are available to provide further information or documentation as needed.

  On Nov 29, 2024, I brought my 2020 Jeep Wrangler (under 33k miles) in for an oil change and maintenance at Seattle Jeep. Upon returning to my car, I noticed a large scratch on the hood that wasnt there before, as well as additional scratches on the drivers side. I informed ********* the service **** and she confirmed that the damage was not present beforehand, apologized, and took my car to their on-site detailer for further inspection. We then scheduled an appointment for Dec 4th for repairs.I returned my car on Dec 4th. ******** updated me that the detail team had buffed the hood but needed more time for repainting. By Dec 5th, the car appeared fixed, but water on the hood made it hard to confirm the repair due to them washing it. I told ******** I would check again at home. Upon closer inspection, the scratch remained visible. I returned the car, and ******** confirmed the scratch was still there. She scheduled a new appointment for Dec 11th.On Dec 11th, I dropped the car off again. I returned Dec 13th, and still couldnt confirm the repair due to rain. ******** said the next option would be to send my car to their collision center for further repairs. I informed her that was not the best option due to the holidays and that I no longer trusted the Seattle Jeep team to resolve the issue they created, after trying TWICE to fix ***** insurance broker advised me to have Seattle Jeep pay for repairs at an independent auto shop and cover a rental car, which I relayed to ********. She responded that her manager was unwilling to do this.Ive been coming to this location for four years and spent $1,500 on this service. Despite two attempts, Seattle Jeep has not resolved the damage they caused. Additionally, no one informed me that my car was damaged during service, which is extremely unprofessional.I am requesting that Seattle Jeep cover the cost of repairing my car at an independent shop and provide a rental car if needed.

  We are sorry to hear that Ms. ***** is frustrated with her experience at Seattle Jeep. Customer satisfaction is our top priority, and we are committed to providing excellent service to all our customers.
  On November 29, 2024, Ms. ***** brought her vehicle in for scheduled service and maintenance. At that time, our facility had a process in place to take photos of vehicles upon arrival and departure. However, the service advisor referenced in Ms. ******* complaint did not follow this procedure. As a result, we were unable to verify whether the scratch in question occurred at our facility.
  As a goodwill gesture and in the interest of customer satisfaction, our management team offered to have our detail department attempt scratch removal at no cost. After buffing and polishing, a portion of the scratch remained visible, so we engaged our paint specialist to perform a touch-up correction. Following inspection, our management team confirmed that the scratch had been effectively addressed.
  A few days later, Ms. ***** informed us that she still believed the scratch was present. To further assist her, our department manager offered to have our licensed Mopar-certified body shop inspect the damage and provide a repair estimate. Ms. ***** declined this offer and instead requested direct payment to a body shop of her choice. Since then, we have not received any further communication from her.
  To date, Ms. ***** has not provided us with any repair estimates or invoices, nor has she allowed us the opportunity to review or discuss potential assistance with the repair costs since filing this complaint.
  We remain open to reviewing estimates from an independent repair facility of her choice and discussing possible options. Additionally, we would still like the opportunity for our Mopar-certified body shop to inspect the damage and provide an estimate. If Ms. ***** chooses to proceed with the repair, we would be happy to provide her with a service loaner while the work is being completed.
  We appreciate the opportunity to address this matter and look forward to reaching a resolution.

  I purchased a 2013 ****** Leaf for $1789.70. I paid the full amount at time of delivery. Several weeks later, the dealer began harassing me, telling me I needed to pay an additional unspecified sum for the vehicle I had already purchased and paid for, or my vehicle, which I own, would be repossessed and resold.

  I bought a used Suburu from Seattle Hyundai on 4/27. There were several issues so sale was contingent, in writing, on customer satisfaction with the repair work. I verbally reviewed what I had seen, and the salesperson agreed those were reasonable fixes. I paid down $5k in cash.I was told car was ready and I requested documentation - several days later I received it.Lube, oil change, mirror repaired.I called to say more had been agreed to - it was explained to me used cars only get safety issues repaired. I said 1) a nail in a tire and a missing spare are safety issues, and 2) sale contingent on customer acceptance.I was told agreed-to repairs would be undertaken.On 5/7: acknowledgement sun roof needed repair Shortly following: car needed to be sent to the Suburu dealership for repairs. 5/13: too expensive to fix the sun roof, $1500 off price, but I was told roof sealed.5/16: car ready next day.5/17: went to pick up the car. Roof did not seal. Deal cancelled. I asked if I was getting my refund then - told refund would be mailed first thing next business day.On 5/22: I received a text late in the day asking if I was picking up refund or wanted it mailed. I said I'd been explicitly told it would be mailed and to do so ASAP.5/26 no check - I was told it hadn't been mailed or cut.I emailed on 5/28, told check mailed on 5/23.5/31: no $. I requested they cancel and re-issue check for me to pick up. Manager explained mail takes an "average" of a week to arrive (metro area mail typically arrives in 1-2 days), said I requested a check be mailed in the first place (dealership told me that was what they would do), and said there is a $35 fee for reissuing a check.**** was cancelled 2 weeks ago; I do not have my money. Based on current interest rates, interest accrued would cover at least half reissue cost. They've declined to reissue and have instead asked me to wait longer to "see" if a check mailed in the metro area over a week ago arrives. I want my money.

  On April 1st, 2024 I purchase a used 2022 Hyundai Elantra N from CDJR Hyundai of Seattle. Upon purchasing the vehicle from the dealership, I paid an additional $1000 for it to attain "certified pre-owned" status. It was explicitly communicated to me by the sales representatives that this certification would extend the existing warranty to five years from the date of my purchase (i.e. April 1st, 2029). However, upon further inquiry with Hyundai, the manufacturer of the vehicle, I have discovered that this information is false. This misinformation has caused considerable inconvenience and financial strain on my part, as I relied on this assurance when making the decision to purchase the vehicle. I am seeking a refund of the $1000 paid for the "certified pre-owned status".

  Purchased a used car from this dealership on 3/30/24. At closing they only gave me one key -- when I questioned them on it, they said that they would get the second key in the next few days from the previous owner and then send it to me. I have contacted them around 7-8 times and still have not received the key or an adequate response to my inquiries. They have since informed me that the extra key has been "lost".

  On April 7, 2024 I paid a $3000.00 deposit on a 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe Hybrid that was in transit and was estimated to arrive in May, all I received was a receipt for the deposit, no papers were signed, only an offer was made. I contacted the dealership a couple weeks later to let them know that I would be unable to purchase the car due to unforseen circumstances. I have called, texted, left a voice-mail, emailed and the two responses I have recieved were just giving me the run around. I need my money back. They were extremely fast to contact me when I sent them my contact information prior to paying this deposit and now they are ghosting me. I'm not about to let them keep my $3000.00 dollars.

  I first bought a ************************************ April of 2023 for $11,500. After 3 weeks, the engine failed on me due to a bad oil leak, and faulty oil sensors. They initially quoted me $9500 for a used engine to be put in, and I had clearly stated that I had wanted it to be resealed. The quote was eventually lowered to $8000, and they finally offered to pay for half of it, after extensively pursuing the situation. I talked down my half to $3750 because of the repeated poor communication and accountability, having been called multiple times by salesmen, while receiving no communication from the service department. I wasn't given a copy of the invoice at the time, and assumed the engine had been resealed, and now under 6000 miles later, the head gasket is leaking, and I have been quoted $4000 to fix it. Come to find out, the dealership hadn't resealed my engine when they put it in, and I was only recently sent a copy of the invoice and the work done. The dealership is now refusing to budge, as they claim they have done more than enough for my car. However, the work they did to fix it was subpar, and they hadn't resealed my engine like they initially claimed that they had.
