absurd service
On the weekend, I barely had time to go to get service, but I only got service from the wrong place, and I didn't check the place I asked for. Then I told him to come again on a weekday.

Dear customer,
  Thank you so much for the review. And I apologize for the inconvenience sales created....well, some of them we contributed too, it looks like..... Hopefully, after the re modeling, we have more and higher quality of amenities available to our customers and also minimized the waiting time.
  However,  I just want to let you know that this review is solely about your service experience.  I can see most of your frustration was with sales and they have their own version of review.... If you give us opportunity, Service department will make up the frustration you had with Sales.  I will ask Jae to follow up.
We are looking forward to seeing you again soon.

WILL TAKE YOUR MONEY AND NOT PERFORM THE JOB
I dropped of my car to get an oil change and have the spark plugs replaced. Well, they charged me a total of $400 but they never performed the job. I noticed they emptied the coolant reservoir but never bothered to fill it back up. They also were supposed to do a 110 point inspection, well if they did, they would of noticed that my wiper fluid was low. So since We noticed all these other issues, we decided to take a look at the spark plugs. Well to my surprise! The original spark plugs were never replaced, yet they charged me! Going forward, I make sure I ask for my old parts to insure they were able to get the job done.

By the way, I investigated and found that all he did was identified the necessary repairs and recommended it so you can keep your vehicle in best condition.  That is his job as the service advisor.

Your battery failed the load test. He showed you the failed report.  We do not recommend to replace the battery unless it fails....      

   I can feel that you are upset but please do not treat our department like unethical cheaters. We do not run business like that here. Customer satisfaction is the #1 goal and we all are proud of serving our loyal Hyundai customer.

I will make sure you see Javer next time.  That is of course if you decided to come back.  Thanks again for your input.

Horrible
I took my car in for service because my airbag service light was on. Once the inspection of the problem was finished, you guys told me that I need to replace two components that's under the passenger seat. You said it would cost above $1,400. There are some water marks on the drivers seat, so your mechanic came to the easiest conclusion that would benefit you guy and said that thee components might be water damaged but he is not 100% sure. Therefor you guys told me that it's no longer under warranty and that I have to pay full price. I went to a private mechanic shop and they told me a complete different story. There were no sign of water damage and they showed me. You guys lied. You tried to steal $1,400 from me. I have been a loyal Hyundai customer since day one and always brought my car to a Hyundai dealership for service. I will never again set my foot in one of your stores. You guys are thieves.

It’s unfortunate the service did not meet your expectations. 
I tried to call you but it was not successful. But I am glad to hear that you have fixed your car someplace else. I hope not but the light probably came back on. I spoke with the technician who checked your car.  He said he tried to reset the light many times but it kept coming back on.  He said the only way to repair it for good is replacement. That particular part is under warranty for 5 year/60,000 miles. So regardless of water damage or not, you have to pay for the part and labor to fix it. 

 Please bring me the receipt and repair details from the local shop. I will review it for possible money back. Of course if it is proven to be our mistake….

   I can feel that you are very upset but please do not treat our department like unethical cheaters. We do not run business like that here. Customer satisfaction is the #1 goal and we all are proud of serving our sincere and truly loyal Hyundai customer.

Took care of my recall
I came in for an ABS recall on my Hyundai, service tech took care of my appointment quickly and without any issue. In the process, I asked about the steering coupling recall from a year prior. The service tech took a look to see if it needed changing and he recommended that it did. If it goes on without changing it could further damage the steering column. I understand this is a job that needs to happen as part of maintenance on my car, even though it wasn't broken, my husband went ahead and changed it out himself. If you are not handy with car repairs, then I recommend you let the pros handle it. The service here is good, they pay attention to any needs that arise and are quick to make you feel valued and cared for.

Always trying to sell you something else
Came in for a recall on my Hyundai, and I asked about the steering coupling recall from a year prior. The service tech said, “let me take a look see if it needs changing.” He came back in and said, “yes, you want to replace it, specially before it causes more damage to your steering column, it’ll only be $400.” I passed on it, bought the part myself for $9 and went to change it, only to find out the coupling was perfectly fine. Hmmmm Saved myself those $400.

Service needs improvement
I really don't want to go next time to do my service if I can find elsewhere. I used to like coming to this dealership for service maintenance because the service advisors were courteous, knowledge and communicate effectively and efficiently with customers. I did not get that exceptional service as before.

I am a woman, all my friends are women. I have a life-long history of being cheated by mechanics/community service shops. My brother, RIP, had to advocate and intervene for me when it came to car repairs. I have experienced unfair treatment That drove my decision to lease and never buy another car. It's too bad Hyundai did me wrong on this new contract. Next time I'm going to get my car from anywhere but Hyundai.

Major Inconvenience
I brought my car in for a scheduled maintenance appointment on Friday the 27th of December. I was told this would take 2 hours. I had arranged to have a somebody pick me up and drop me back off at the dealership when my car would be ready since I would have no car for that amount of time. About 3 hours after I dropped my car off, the person helping me told me that there was a knock in my engine, they tried running a test, and (because of a defect of the engine) they flooded the engine with carbon and it is broken. He told me that they will get me a rental on Monday, the 30th. Around the afternoon on Monday, after not hearing anything from the person who was helping me, I tried reaching out and left 3 messages. I spoke to someone in the service department who said someone else will review my case and get back to me. Told me they couldn't issue a rental car because they didn't receive approval. He said maybe the day after. I called back the day after (the 31st) and found out they are closed the 31st (i only assumed they would be closed New years day and not eve because the person who helped me did not tell me). It wasn't until the 3rd of Jan did we receive a rental car.

I understand that there are procedures and the the new year was happening, but I do not find it to be acceptable to be left with out a car for a full week when I only accounted for being without a car for 2 hours. I was MAJORLY inconvenienced during this process. If I was told that it would take this long, I could of made other arrangements. However, how long it would actually take was never communicated to me.

The communication during the process of being issued a rental was very poor. I had to call multiple times just to get it touch. No timeline was ever given for when my car would be ready.

 Unfortunately, we can not put you on a rental until the claim gets fully approved. As for not a smooth communication, We will take the blame for it.
  We will try harder next time to get 5 stars from you. That is of course, if you decide to come back.  Thanks again.
