Such bad customer support they simply dropped a lifelong client.
I ordered my initial new-car from Jim Coleman — a 1997 Corolla. After purchasing my next several in Florida while I lived out west, I delivered to DC about three years before and discovered myself having to purchase a new Corolla in March. I delivered to Jim Coleman after researching costs at-all of the region sellers (out so far as Manassas and Baltimore). Chris Lee was the salesman who served me. He offered me the typical salesman tales (e.G., how he himself desired to purchase the VERY vehicle that I had been purchasing but he was compelled to put on down by himself purchase in order to permit me, the client, to consider goal (CERTAIN, Chris), and just how only a little aged woman who purchased an automobile from him had let her battery proceed lifeless and named him in the centre of the night time to inform him the brand new vehicle did not function, and he OBVIOUSLY responded her phone and assisted her out-of her jam, since he is that good of the man and because customer support IS REALLY very important to Jim Coleman). But, bullsh*t sales techniques however, the cost was good-and the deal was sleek, apart from a mistake about the paperwork showing my shipping day about the vehicle was many weeks before the evening I really picked it-up.
I Have used actually the final six months attempting to correct this easy error (because it influences my guarantee). It ought to be simple for them to deal with. Chris, who applied to instantly reply my calls and e-mails before he'd the purchase, has were able to disregard the great majority of my questions since he currently got his fee from me. I actually merely asked him to inform me who I *should* be interacting with (realizing he isn't a person support representative), but he didn't reply actually that issue or direct me to customer support — rather he simply ignored me. I approached primary Toyota headquarters' customer support after 4 weeks to be overlooked by Chris, plus they exposed the official situation and guaranteed me that somebody from Jim Colemanis customer support division might contact me within 3 business days. Per month handed and (shock!) nobody had approached me from Jim Coleman, and so I published a conventional notice addressed to Dale Kerns within the customer support division, requesting help, providing them with the situation quantity, and particularly stating I'd been a faithful client for 15 years (I actually introduced my vehicle set for routine maintenace in Bethesda simply to provide them with my company, despite residing in Va), and requesting only for ANY conversation from their store even when there is nothing they might do to assist me. It's now been a complete month since I have shipped that notice, and never just one term from Jim Coleman.
I'll never go back to their dealer for another purchase, or for service, simply because they have such horrible customer service. Should you decide to purchase an automobile from their store, create certain there are no conditions that you'll must have looked after later, since after they have your cash they'll fall you prefer a warm potato.
