I purchased an, admittedly, used Jeep here and it has made a squealing/screeching noise since the day I got it. It takes roughly 15-20 minutes of driving or idling for it to begin so of course I didn t know about it until after I d already bought it (test drives are like 15 minutes max?). I contacted the dealership immediately and they asked me to bring it back for them to look at - so I did. They said they couldn t replicate the noise despite me having heard it while pulling into the dealership and also immediately after returning home. They asked for a video of the noise so I sent them multiple. They asked me to bring it back again - so I did - and they said they replaced the idler pulley. Excited that it was finally fixed - I drove it home and the noise remained. I played phone and text tag with the dealership for weeks - literally. Finally the sales manager (Bob Larimore) contacted me and I missed his call (I work obviously), so over two weeks I called him 4 times and left 3 messages and he never called me back. Finally I got in contact with a different manager (Arik Sichevoi) who had me bring it in, (3rd time) and they kept it for a few days, told me they sent it to Jeep and that Jeep said all was well. All is not well. I contacted them AGAIN and they told me they were not sure what else they could do for me. ...fix it? It continues to make the noise and I haven t gotten to enjoy having a new vehicle since getting it because I am just worried about paying to fix it now. I was sent an email by Carfax to review the service provided by the dealership, so I did, and ANOTHER manager (Tracy Gurnett) responded asking me to send my contact info. I did. I ve emailed her three times in three weeks. No response. Pretty disappointing and disgusted with how they have handled the situation. Now I have a new (used) car that makes an unbearable noise when I drive it so my new car experience has been lackluster. I ve waited months to make this review, hoping they would rectify the situation but evidently they aren t going to. Sucks.
