  January of this year, 2024 my car lost all power while I was driving it and I had it towed to Eagleridge GM in Coquitlam Bc. It was in their possession from January to May while they said they were working on it. Eveny time I called for a status update, I was given another excuse and another thing apparently found wrong with it. When I picked it up in May, I had possession of it for one day before the same vehicle warnings came on the dash and I returned it to the dealership Eagle Ridge GM then had it from May to the beginning of July, once again saying how they were having difficulty finding parts This is a certified GM dealership and I have a GM car ********************************************************************************************** the car was deemed unfixable by their head office I had already paid just over $4000 for the work Up to this point they say the car cant be fixed Because apart they need is no longer manufactured This same part was working fine when I dropped it off in January!! I have the work order with the diagnostics and a broken car sits in front of my house because they gave it back to me with wires, exposed and parts in the car loose. I have video footage of the day I I had to call another tow truck to get it towed from their dealership, it was barely accessible for the tow truck driver. The car is not operable and is in worst condition than when originally brought there I have met with their service manager, who reimbursed me $1000 of the 4000 to shut up and go away I am seeking complete reimbursement for job, not done. Once again, the car is in worse shape now than it was when I initially dropped it off in January I was never offered a courtesy car from the dealership for the seven months they had my car. I finally pressed them for one in order to light a fire under their **** to fix mine. Once again they didnt fix it. They returned it disassembled and I want all of my money back for faulty workmanship

  The primary issue with the car is that it is old, and the necessary part has been discontinued by *************** The customer was informed of this problem from the beginning, and the only available option was to find a similar used part on ***** The parts and labor charges on this invoice reflect only the work done to start the car again. However, the old used part we sourced did not function properly, and the customer returned the car to us to find another used part.
  We met with the customer and her husband/partner and provided them with three options to resolve the issue:
  1) Trade in the car and purchase a new one with support in pricing.
  2) Allow us more time to call an engineer from ************** to help program the used part.
  3) Tow the car and compensate them with $1000 CAD, covering the related cost of the paid invoice and waiving the current invoice of $6900 CAD, which means $7900 CAD.
  The customer agreed to the third option and requested the $1000 CAD compensation while taking back the car. The customer still owe dealership with $6900 CAD as she authorized all other repairs in the work order.

  As the customer wanting to claim additional compensation, we believe that we don't have any agreement and we request a full payment of the outstanding invoice of $6900 CAD plus tax, in addition to the $1000 CAD.

  Thanks

  On the morning of June 2nd 2023 we took our 2022 GMC in to Eagle Ridge Gm service department for a routine oil change and for some minor recall work on the transmission. In the process they decided to install a heated steering wheel chip as the vehicle did not come with one due to supply chain issues. While the heated steering wheel was a feature we very much wanted to have functional in our vehicle, the fact that this work was going to happen at this particular visit was not communicated to us. What started as a morning maintenance appointment turned in to our being without our truck for 5 days, ruined weekend plans and poor/non existent communication from people in the service department and no interjection from the overall manager/operator of that location.The unauthorized work had their service department take apart the steering column and due to incompetence they managed to strip a bolt preventing them to put it back together. Even though we were told the piece would be in and the vehicle would be driveable by end of day Saturday, it was not until the Tuesday morning we were able to pick it **.In contacting their service department via email I was responded to with a page from their warranty terms which state they are not responsible for damage etc during this work. They failed to address the fact that they performed work that was not authorized by the owner of the vehicle.The last correspondence received was on July 5th offering us a credit for an oil change. After contemplation and consideration we responded on July *************************************************************************************************************************************** ***** ***** ****** ** *** ** *** ***** **** *** ***** ** **** ** *** ****** ******* ***** **** **** *** ** ******** ** * ****** ******** ***** *** ******** ** ** * ******** ******* **** *** *** *******. We received no response to the July 26th email we sent and are now needing outside help to resolve this.

  When the customer came in and the recalls were being worked (one of which was the heated steering wheel replacement chip) a piece was damaged and had to be ordered in. The customer was provided with a rental vehicle under the vehicle warranty policy at no charge to them. Once the vehicle had the repairs completed, the customer returned the rental vehicle and their vehicle was returned to them. Unfortunately under the manufacturer warranty there is no provision for additional funds to be paid to a customer. ****************** offered a free oil change as a show of good will which the customer did accept. At this time there is nothing further the manufacturer will offer.

  Complaint: ********
  
  I am rejecting this response because: As previously stated, the heated steering wheel chip installation was not approved to be done during the vehicle appointment in question. The dealership seems to keep glossing over the fact that we lost a lot of money and our plans were affected for that weekend because of the unauthorized work. They mention the rental vehicle provided to us, but failed to note that it was a ***** that was inferior in every way to our $90000+ truck that we were without for 5 days. They also continually do not address the fact that their employees crushed an expensive hat in the cab of the truck and spilled coffee without any attempt to clean it up. While they offered a complimentary oil change, they have not followed through or responded to our acceptance of that offer as a starting point in rectifying this issue.

  We dealt with ************************* (Sales Manager) throughout the weekend trying to deal with this issue at the time and he agreed with our stance and expressed that the way the service department has handled the issues at hand are unacceptable. ***** (the Services Manager, or so we were told) dropped the ball in communicating with us on multiple occasions as we were strung along with how long this would take to get rectified.

  More than one unsubstantiated oil change voucher needs to be offered as compensation to resolve this issue once and for all.

  Sincerely,

  Back in November of 2021 I went in to get a replacement tire as my front passenger tire was damaged. Jonathan (who is no longer with the company) said because it was a specialty tire it would take 2-3 months to get in which I was fine with. 4 months went by and I got tired of waiting. Jonathan was no longer with eagleridge and never ordered my tire, I asked to get the tire again and they said they would order it. I've followed up with them alot and they kept forgetting to order the tire, most recently (March 12th I believe) I went in in-person to discuss this in person, after the secretary said she believed the tire was in and to come back in an hour, only to find out the tire was discontinued and that they would try snd find a new one/set to replace it. They keep promising to call me but don't regarding the tire. I've spent 4 plus months driving on my spare tire. I have a newborn and I'm afraid to have her in the truck incase I get a flat and get stranded, I use my truck for work purposes (HVAC) so I need my Truck in top working condition. This is not the first time eagleridge has done something like this but this is beyond frustrating

  Unfortunately there's no receipt, I'm trying to replace a tire but eagleridge won't do it because my tire is discontinued and they won't replace it
