Hi Joel, thank you for the nice review, I will pass it along to my staff. We look forward to seeing you on your next visit!
Jeanne, Based on an email you sent earlier today, I have already started the process of untangling the releif you've been seeking and as described in your comments. It would be helpful in you could contact Hyundai Customer Service directly (800-523-4030) as I send a copy of our communictions to our Hyundai Fixed Operations Manager (DFOM) in an effort to seek his assistance. When you call customers service, if you haven't already done so, they will provide you a "case number". If you have a case number or get one after calling, can you provide that number to me via email so I can communicate directly with Hyundai Customer Service on your behalf? I apologize for the inconvenience and frustration you've experienced. As you know, based on my return email to you earrlier today, I've asked Jennifer McAllister to help me and Hyundai Customer service by bringing you up to date on the status of the issues you've referenced in your survey. Unbfortunately, Erika German is no longer a member of the customer service staff. I want to thank you for providing Jennifer, me and our Hyundai DFOM to address your concerns to your ultimate satisfaction. Rick
Richard MacLeayJeanne, Can you confirm if HMA will be reibursing you for the rental charges you paid Enterprise? If not, I will contact our DFOM Monday morning on your behalf. In any case, I hope you have great weekend. Rick
Richard MacLeayHi Jeanne, I'm happy to announce good news: HMA has authorized a $760 reimbursement of the of the $776.71 you paid for your rental car from Enterprise. When I process payment on or about the 10th of November, I'll include a coupon for a complimentary oil change. I want to thank you again for your patience and look forward to seeing you when your Hyundai needs it's next oil change. If you have any questions please let me know. Rick

White River HyundaiHi Micahel, I am sorry you were not 100% satisfied with your service I will review this with my team and try to improve on your comments. I hope you would give us a chance to earn your business back.
Michael, In April of this year you had informed us of a concern regarding your Ioniiq fuel economy. At that time I asked you to contact Hyundai Motors America customer asistance line. My records indicate that at that time HMA set-up a case number to address your concerns, #15435979. Unfortunately, I can not at thist time determine if HMA addressed your concerns to your satisfaction. If not, I'm curious if the frustration you expressed in this survey is related in some way. If yes, I'd like to have HMA contact you with your approval. I certainly apologize that the recent repair was complicated by parts availablity. Please let me know if you would like me to contact HMA on your behalf. I thank-you for taking the time to make us aware of your overall concerns. Rick
Richard MacLeayMichael, I understand that you have concerns regarding the decision to resurfaced rotors vs. replacement during your last visit. I'd like to take this opportunity to let you know that it's the recommendation of Hyundai, as is the case with automotive industry standard practices, to face or turn rotors prior to replacement. Below is a link to a short video from Pro-Cut Industries located in Lebanon, NH that explains the reasons to face rotors vs. premature replacement. I hope the video is helpful. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b5T9GEL9Avc&feature=youtu.be
Please let me know if you would like to discuss in greater detail either by email, phone or in person. I hope you have a good weekend.
Michael, Thank you for letting me now that you thought the facing of the rotors was not your choice and that the surface of the rotors are a "mess". If you can allow us to inspect the rotors, and if they have not been faced to the highest industry standards I will provide you a full refund for that resurfacing. I look forward to having the opporunity to inspect the rotors as we want to make every effort to have you satisfied with your service purchase. I hope you have a good day. Rick
Richard MacLeayHi "M"thank you for the great review I will pass it along to the staff. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Hi Jennifer thank you for the nice review I will pass it along to my staff. We look forward to seeing you again.
Hi Clara, thank you for the review, we appreciate the 5 stars. Thank you for letting us know about the hood, I will review this with my team. We look forward to seeing you again!
Hi Mike, thank you for the review we appreciate the kind words I will make sure to pass it along to the staff. We look forward to seeing you next time!
Hi Karen, thank you for the kind words I will be glad to pass it along to the staff. We look forward to seeing you again!
I apologize for your experience and agree that the replacement of the handle unpainted is completely unacceptable. I understand that arrangments have been made to paint the handle black. I will review your candid comments regarding staff with the individuals involved as they appear inappropriate and unprofessional in nature, for that fact I apologize as well. I will follow-up with you once I can confirm the scheudling date for the painting of the handle. Thank-you for providing me this opportunity to address your concerns. Rick
Richard MacLeay
White River HyundaiI understand that you were informed that the painting of the door handle black was not a matter of warranty. In fact, that is not the case. Please let me know if you'd like to arrange the painting of the door handle or if you will have that work performed at another Dealership. I apologize again for the unprofessional manner in which your repairs were handled and the mis-information you received. I hope that you provide us the opportunity to paint the handle so you don't have to be further inconvenienced. If it would help, I can send a driver to pick-up your Tucson at a location convenient to you. That driver will drop off a loaner car for your use while we have the handle painted and installed. If that idea works for you, please let me know what day/time and location works best for you. Rick
Richard MacLeayThanks for completing the online survey. I will confirm the ETA of the parts needed to finalize repairs on your Tucson. I apologize for the delays in receipt of those parts in a timely manner. Rick
Richard MacLeayHi, I can confirm that the parts are on order with an ETA of Wednesday. As our 1st delivery of parts from Hyundai is on Tuesday morning, there is a possibility of arrival on that day. In any case, I'll follow-up with you on Tuesday to provide you a status update as of that day. I hope you have a good weekend. Rick
Richard MacLeayHi I will be checking on the ETA of parts for you today. Once I know that status I will confirm. I hope you have a gread day. Rick
Richard MacLeayHi, I've been able to confirm that part needed to complete your repairs have arrived. If not already arranged, please contact Erika (802-478-0700, ext. #109) to schedule installation. I will follow-up with you once the repair is complete to see if everything ended up satisfactory. Rick
Richard MacLeayHi, It's been a month or more since we finalized the repairs on your Tucson. I was just following up to confirm the work was performed to your satisfaction. If no, I'd appreciate hearing from you to provde us an opportunity to correct any lingering mechanical issues. If yes, that fact pleases me and we look forward to seeing you again when the need for additional preventative maintenance arises. I hope you have an enjoyable weekend. Rick
Richard MacLeayHi William, thank you for the kind words I will pass it along to the staff. We look forward to seeing you next time!
Robert, Thanks for taking the time to share your comments regargin your experience. I can confirm at this time that Melva is no longer on our staff. That said your kind words for Rodney and Erika are greatly appreciated. I apologize for any frustration Melva may have caused you, but want you to know that your patronage is important to us and we all look forward to the opportunity to provide your Elantra the preventative maintenance it will need in the future. Understanding your angst regarding Melva, can you let me know if the final repairs to your Elantra cured the mechanical problems being addressed? Thanks, I hope you have a good evening. Rick
Richard MacLeayDawn, Unaware of the specifics of the repairs our staff performed on you Santa Fe or the specific complications that occured to cause you what appears to be great frustration, I will review the repair to day and follow-up with you by phone or email today or on Monday. Thank you for providing us an opportunity to address your concerns as our goal is your complete satisfaction. Rick
Richard MacLeayDawn, I now understand that you frustration is a result of the two break downs that occured after the Dealership performed a reprograming recall from HMA. I have notified HMA of our frustration and ask you, if you haven't already done so, to call Hyundai Customer Service at 800-633-5151 to register your disastisfaction with HMA directly. When you call the customer service agent should provide you a case number. Can you provide me a copy of that case number so I can provide it to my District Service Manager from Hyundai? I will follow-up with you once I've made that latter contact. I apologize for the inconveience that you've experienced, I hope that I can reestablish your trust in the Dealership moving forward. Rick
Richard MacLeayDawn, Understood, unfortunately we are out of properly insured cars for loaner/rental service and the local rental car agencies have been very low on availability. For that fact I apologize. One option in the future is to rent a car from any local rental car agency and Hyundai will reimburse up to $38.00 per day. The best way to assure reimbursement is for us, or you, to call the customer service number and request direct reimbursement from Hyundai. Direct reimbursement from Hyundai will take less time than waiting for the Dealership to reimburse as that process can take 30 to 45 days. In the future, we’ll be expanding our fleet of service rentals which would eliminate, subject to availability, the rental of a car from the local rental agencies. You mentioned in your survey that no one explained what caused the break downs; attached are copies of the last two repairs. The 1st break-down required the replacement of a sensor wiring harness. The 2nd repair required the replacement of the sensor. Thank you for connecting with me and sharing your concerns. I will do my very best in the future to assure that our staff always recommends to customers with the same experience to contact Hyundai customer service (800-633-5151) for information and help with things like rental cars. Let me know how I can help from this point forward. I hope you have a good afternoon and evening. Rick

My other issue is I had no car I had to rely on other people which is so wrong I have a new car and you could not supply me with the car to use
Dawn, I apologize that I didn’t notice that you sent me two emails, as you know I responded to the 2nd of two earlier. I agree that the service advisors need to keep you and all other customers up to speed as to the progress of determining the cause of mechanical failures and the cure. In your case, during both break-downs, the cure required the ordering of parts which are not always available in a timely manner. Additionally, complicating the situation, two of our customer service staff [of only three] were on vacation or out with family emergencies for ten days during the time period your vehicle was being repaired. This latter fact made it very difficult for the lone customer service advisor to keep up, for that fact she and I apologize. We appreciate your business and hope that we can have an opportunity in the future to re-earn your trust. With that goal in mind, please bring this email in during your next service and receive a no charge oil change. Thanks again for giving me this opportunity to openly communicate with you. Again, I hope you have an great evening. Rick
