Dropped my truck off at Classic after hours at abo...
Dropped my truck off at Classic after hours at about 9pm, the night before I left for vacation. I figured I'd go ahead and have my oil changed and tires rotated.
The after hours drop off process was convienient and nearly flawless. An opportunity for Improvement would be to ensure the is a writing utensile attached to or near the key drop-off box (military vet - so i had a pen - always ready drill seagent always ready).
The work was performed and my truck was available for pick up very quickly. My flight was set to return to DFW at 3:30pm, so I anticipated being able to get blocer to Classic from the airport by 5pm when the service department was set to close. Unfortunately, my flight out of Florida was delayed, due to lightening. Needless to say, I was not able to make it to Denton prior to 5pm. I did however; arrive about 10-minutes before closing of the sales department.
Initially, one of the remaining employees had me concerned that he we as not going to be able to get me into my truck (that night). This would have created a major hardship for me. Nonetheless, he was able to contact someone (after hours) and combined with additional teamwork; they retrieved my key fob and I was on my way. Huge PLUS for Classic, in the exceptional team work and heroic customer service provided (on Saturday 5-minutes before the weekend)! Opportunity for improvement; establish a cross training program that targets opportunities to ensure this capability with ease. The initial stress could have been reduced, thus providing me with an improvement customer experience!
Last but Certainly not Least! As previously stated, I also had my oil changed and tires rotated. Had I known it was going to cost me +$100 to have this service performed, I would have most certainly opted to have these services (which are often combined) performed elsewhere. Statistis indicate that an avg synthetic oil change w/tires rotated, ranges between $45 & $70. I paid 31% to 56% higher than the national average. Opportunities for improvement, would be to endure this is accurately communicated during initial conversations and think about driving this cost down to a more reasonable price.
This drove my review down from 4.85 to 3.
