didn't handle important issues
My primary purpose was routine maintenance and the smell in headrest, When closing out, I was told that they didn't notice smell and it would take a longer appt. to handle plus headlight issue was not fixed. I have been leaving the windows down in the garage to stop the smell plus when weather permits driving with windows open. If I knew it had to smell for you to fix it, I wouldn't have done that. Plus if I knew it would take longer to handle I would have made other arrangements. As I am a snow bird and had to wait nearly a month for this appointment, I am extremely disappointed!. I will be heading back to Michigan in late April plus a long driving vacation in two weeks. So we and our company will get the unpleasant smell for our entire trip and for our two day trip back to Michigan.
I have had nothing but positive experiences in the past. But after this visit, I will not be back. As much as I dislike the dealership in Michigan, in the future I will plan all my maintenance during our time in Michigan.

Service Manager Resolved
This is a follow-up to my original 2-star review. There was no issue when I checked my vehicle in for maintenance with Service Advisor James Powers. He earned five stars. As far as the other issues, the Service Manager Justin reached out to me and offered consideration in order to make up for my bad experience. I gave him honest feedback and will give Wesley Chapel Hyundai another try when my vehicle is due again for periodic maintenance.

Going Down Hill Fast
The service dept used to be the best in the area. Since Lithia took over it has been substandard performance. If you want to wait five plus weeks for an appointment, expect so so customer service, and like oily finger prints on the exterior and interior of your vehicle, this is your place.

Customer service was professional
Everyone was very nice and kept me informed of progress on my car . However having to wait 3 weeks for an appointment and then waiting 4 1/2 hours on the day of service (for an oil change and new tires ) was excessive.

Wesley Chapel Hyundai 5 Stars/ Hyundai Motors 0 Stars
James, my WC Hyundai service tech, was professional & understanding. When my vehicle needed a new master cylinder he made arrangements to get me a rental car & contacted a carrier to take me to the car rental site. He also informed me that he would contact once the repair was complete. After keeping me posted on a delay in getting the part shipped he apologized & promised to keep me posted. He did this 3 more times, each time apologizing for the delay, before letting me know the part arrived & the car would be ready in a couple of days. Then in a day he informed me the car was ready for pickup. When I arrived for pickup James again apologized for the lengthy delay (5 wks), escorted me to my car & assured me I could contact him with any problems or questions. So, WC Hyundai (James) get 5 stars while Hyundai Motors gets 0 stars for customer service. 5 weeks to forward a part for a repair is inexcusable. Thanks to James!

Lag Time For Repair
My vehicle was diagnosed with a defective master cyclinder for the brake system. Even though I was provided with rental/loaner the comparable selection was well below a Sonata. Choice of Chevy Spark or Nissan Versa. The vehicle was left at the dealer on 9/13 with completion not until 10/21. The service rep kept updating completion via texts & noting a shipping backlog for the delays. Hard to believe a single part takes 5 weeks for delivery.

Could be better
Improve tech services, waiting time, acknowledging when quality of service is absent or low, being courteous.
When you do regular service of car, do a good job so that the battery does not die out with acid leaking from it a few weeks after complete check of car

I'm gonna say No to recommend for now--I will change the review if things improve in future

Thank you for your response, Oksana! We appreciate your business and feedback :) We totally apologize for what transpired last visit, that was not our intention. We should have been more clear with our communication and this probably would have been avoided. There was some disconnect from the technician to the advisor then to you and we need to improve and make sure those disconnects don't happen again. We have voiced this issue with the staff and hope this doesn't happen again but we still do apologize that it happened to you in the first place. You have been coming to our service department for a long time and we do value you as a customer. I unfortunately cannot undo whats been done but I can offer a $100 store credit good towards any future services with no expiration date to show we do want you to return and we do value you as a customer for all these years. I am happy Jay took care of you for the refund and bill correction. We hope you give us another opportunity in the future and we hope to do better by you if given that opportunity. Please don't hesitate to reach out if we can assist you further, we are here for you!

Should have done better
I have been going to this dealership for about 9yrs or so. This last trip was the worst by far! Took 4 hrs to service vehicle when it should have been done within 1.5 to 2hrs. I would still recommend service as I can’t bash them for years of good/great service.

Good customer service but service work is terrible
Customer service is good but the mechanical service work is not so good. I’ve taken my car to this dealership 4 times and they still have not fixed my car. They can’t figure out why the traction light keeps coming on and causing the car not to accelerate and then the brakes lock up. It’s trial and error until with hopes trying different things possibly fix the problem.

Still not Fixed
I have had my headliner replaced, but the bulge is still there on the passenger front side. When James called he said Problem still there so headliner replacement did not matter. He was going to take pictures and send to some field engineer for Hyundai since this is being seen on all Sonatas.

Out of sight out of mind
This is the second time I've come here to get some maintenance done and the part was not there and I was not informed that the part had arrived for my car. It's been a week and I still haven't been contacted from anyone. I had to call and ask if the part I needed so they could complete their job and fix what was wrong with my car in the first place. Maybe this location is just too busy to provide adequate customer care unless you are actually in the building. But this is very annoying. I won't be returning for any routine maintenance.

It is always difficult to get someone to return your call.
This dealership does not have a good respect for the servicing of your vehicle once you purchase your car. It is difficult to get an appointment through the call center that makes the appointments. When you leave a message to have someone return your call you do not get a response. Once this car is paid for I will not buy another Hyundai.
