Overpriced service
A routine maintenance oil change should not cost $120. Will seek other business for this service in the future.

Not sure why you feel like we are so expensive. You have had one oil change and a 7500 mile service done to your vehicle and you have a total of 120 dollars invested. Between the two services that comes out to 60.00 dollars a service and you have factory parts and factory trained techs working on your investment.  We also manage all of your recalls or campaigns and perform those updates as needed. There is a lot more value with us than with competitors.

Want to burn up your motor?
We recently had out 2013 Santa Fe Sport serviced at Tameron Hyundai in Hoover. This is where we bought out CPO SUV so we have always had it serviced here. My wife is the primary driver of the vehicle so the last time she took it to have the oil changed, she asked about a sound the tires made while driving and if it could be cause by the suspension. They advised her that both the tires and suspension were fine and they didn't hear a noise. It was time for the oil to be changed again and they told us to rotate and balance the tires every other oil change so we were having that done as well. The service advisor Matt Austin calls me to let me know the tires are feathering and he recommends an alignment of the suspension as well as rotate and balance. Slightly aggrivated that he recommends this service to reduce the noise that we again complain of from the tires but now the tires have a wear pattern that will only get worse. We did what service was recommended by the service advisors at Hyundai since we bought the vehicle with brand new tires and now we will need new tires only 9 months after purchasing because we didnt get an alignment sooner. To top it off, my vehicle now is leaking oil. There were no leaks prior to having it serviced at Tameron Hyundai and now 5 days later the oil is about a quart low and I now have oil stains on my driveway. Hopefully they didn't mess something up and they only forgot to tighten the oil pan plug or oil filter. Either way, if you want careless service with a smile go see Matt and the team at Tameron Hyundai service.

Not impressed.
This service department had my car just a couple days shy of one month. Delay after delay was experienced, and after a certain point, even the manager ran out of excuses. The first time we were called to pick up the car, it wasn't even fixed properly. No explanation was given other than "We dropped the ball." They did offer a complimentary rental car over half way through the ordeal. Worst experience. Will avoid this service department in the future and will likely never buy Hyundai again.

Oil change went badly
Didn't use synthetic that was on the car history, and didn't ask either. Was told that the other issue I brought in was because I purchased the wrong car and that is just how things are. (Features that are usually standard on most vehicles turn off, when you turn off blue link.)

Thank you Joe B. I appreciate the frank response. I'll be more careful in the future, such that I'm not counterproductive. Something that might help towards this, is to publish the cost of a 30,000 mile maintenance cost. Had I known up-front, I'd have been more critical going in.

Excessive Cost of Routine Maintenance
I was disappointed in the high cost of a 37.500 mile routine maintenance. Even subtracting the needed front-end alignment and the tires, it was high. Having owned a paint and body shop and working with dealers, I was familiar with the higher prices of dealers compared to regular service vendors, but was shocked at my costs.

It is counter productive to keep filling out bad surveys about us. The 30k service you paid for is the same everyone else pays for. I had offered you to come by so we can sit and discuss cost of ownership.

You have been coming here for some time now and have met me and known my staff for years. You know we are extremely accomedating and at a minimum if a customer ask's where the restroom, or waiting area is I know anyone here in our establishmet would have shown her. Also there is signs showing where the customer lounge is, and there is a red carpet path laid out from the service drive to the door to the loung. I dont understand why she waited across the street at a resteraunt.

It is unfortunate the you may have an intermittent issue with your A/C. We checked every aspect of your AC and did not find any issues at all. We evacuated and recharged the AC system with dye, so that if you have a slow leak than the next time you come in we can easily identifie it with a UV light. Our staff will always go above and beyond to remedie the problem, unfortunatley it may take more than one visit to fix the issue. We apologize for your inconvenience and hope to see you again in the near future.

 Our process stays the same for all customers. When we greet the customer , we wright down all of there concerns and we discuss price before we start working on the vehicle. We even have the customer sign the sheet we used to wright with to make sure we have no mis communication. It is unfortunate , but if we do not follow this process than issues may arise. We do not charge customers for anything without prior approval. Please contact me or your service advisor with any concerns about your visit. We value all or our customers and want there experience to be a positive one.
