Review for Service Dept.
A few weeks back I was calling around thinking I would get a wheel alignment when I received a e-mail from Marine Chrysler suggesting it's maybe time to get a wheel alignment. They had wheel alignments on special for $100... Most other places quoted $150 and up, Others seemed rather vague as to what actually they do. Who better to get this service from than the makers dealership. They would have the correct measurements and eye for needed services. Set up an appointment with a service adviser, Mark was curious as to why I thought I needed this alignment. I explained to him that the grooves in the road tended to pull me side to side and cornering seemed somewhat sharp, maybe overly sharp. Mark recommended I could have a check done for $35ish and if alignment was required they would put the $35 towards the cost of the alignment...
The day of the appointment I found I was running ahead of schedule and called Mark the service adviser asking if it was good to drop in earlier than appointed,,, No problem.
When I arrived I was offered a coffee straight away, Needed, but I had just visited a coffee shop down the road, Thank You all the same. Mark had me written up and the keys on the hook within 15 minutes. I wasn't sure how long it was gonna take but Mark advised no more than a couple hours, probably less as his alignment fella had just finished a job and was about to be free.
I decided to stick around and check things out abit.
I was advised that next time I'm in the market for new tires they had a deal that couldn't be beat. That they would match any estimate I could find at any other shop in town. Having 3 seasons on those summer tires I will keep that in mind... and will put it to the test at a later date.
Reading the wall tho I did spy a deal on detailing that looked very competitive. I will be shopping around soon for a deal on that, or keeping an eye on my e-mails from Marine Chrysler...
It's been a few weeks now since the alignment was done and what a difference. No more grabbing of the grooves ... I had some major wandering going on, on Knight street but now it tracks nice. Cornering is way more predictable. In the alignment check I was out what to me seemed like a minor amount. Mark assured me I would feel the difference once it was corrected. Absolutely right... The little rumble that I thought was gonna be a wheel bearing was gone also. Musta been the tires riding on an edge.
All n All a good service by Marine Chrysler service team...
