I have been getting my 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee serviced at Eastchester Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram located in the *****, ** for the last couple years. In September 2023, the engine light displayed on the dash. I brought the vehicle to Eastchester Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram for consultation. At this time, the vehicle had approx ****** miles. I received a diagnostic that ultimately the entire engine for the vehicle had to be replaced which would cost approx $15,000 with labor and parts. Ultimately, I decided to have the engine replaced at full price. **** supplied the engine from a third party manufacturer and did the labor on their premises. The engine came with a three year warranty from the manufacturer along with a two year warranty from Eastchester Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram. In July 2024, the new engine overheated. I immediately brought the vehicle back to Eastchester Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram for consultation. I received a diagnostic that the engine was not salvageable and would have to be fully replaced again. Eastchester Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram then told me that neither their in-house warranty nor the manufacturers warranty would cover the engine overheating and Id have to pay full price outright again to have the engine replaced in order for my car to be operable. I went back and forth with multiple levels of supervision within Eastchester Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram for further explanation and an agreeable solution but they refused to help and told me remove my vehicle from their premises as I was refusing to pay for the engine to be replaced as I believe at least one of the two warranties should cover this issue. I also learned after these series of events this year and model Jeep engine had a recall but the dealership never informed me of this when the Jeep was being serviced. The recall is based on the engine potentially overheating. It is my understanding it is the responsibility of the dealership to check for recalls at the time of service for consultation.Business response

While we do understand the customers light, unfortunately, In this case, what the customer is failing to acknowledge is that the reason she has no warranty coverage is because the cause of the failure of the warrantable part is due to the failure of a NON-WARRANTABLE part. Failure of a non covered component which then causes failure to the covered component deems the warranty void at that point. The last ROs states that. We tried working with her and gave her a solid discount on the new work needed. Attempted to contact the customer to further explain but no answer, phone just rings so emailed instead.Customer response

Better Business Bureau:
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# ********, and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:The cause of the failure was the coolant fan which is a part of the engine. This is common knowledge within the automotive industry and certified mechanics. There cannot be an operable engine without an operable coolant fan which is a component of the engine which is under said warranty. To say it is an non-warrantable part is to say the engine isnt under warranty which is false, there are two separate warranties. This is now the second engine in less than 12 months that has failed and Eastchester Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram continues to deny any responsibility or at least attempt to connect the dots to a potentially bigger issue. They also fail to acknowledge the past recalls of this make and model engine which could also be a contributing factor. I did not receive any calls or emails from Eastchester Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram aside from persistently asking for me to remove my inoperable vehicle from their premises after offering no resolution aside from paying full price for the second time. There was never any discussion of a solid discount. My contact information is the same as provided to the Better Business Bureau.
Sincerely,
****** ********

While we do appreciate the customers response and frustration, the cooling fan module is not part of the engine and therefore was the reason why it is non warrantable.Customer response

Better Business Bureau:
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID# ********, and have determined that my complaint has NOT been resolved because:There are current recalls on both the engine and the coolant fan that Jeep continues to ignore which should have been communicated when the vehicle was first brought in. If the engine signals the coolant fan when to operate, its operation (or lackthereof) can affect that. I need the Better Business Bureau to mediate as Eastchester Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram continues to display poor customer service and believes paying full price for a second engine in less than a year is reasonable when two separate warranties are active.
Sincerely,
****** ********

I brought my car in 8/31 for an inspection. At that time I was told that the car would not pass inspection and was told I needed brakes, rear tires, and axle replaced (my car is from 2017 and all I was told at the previous inspection regarding the brakes. All told more than $5000.00 worth of work. It took constant waiting and call backs to get the repairs done. The price for repairs and what needed repair kept changing. On the 6th I finally received my car. I parked it and the next day my brand new tire was half deflated. Called and took the car back in. They could find nothing. The tire was repeatedly deflating. I asked them to repair or replace the tire. They have been giving me excuses and run around. I demanded that they replace an obviously defective tire and they are playing run around games with me stating that they could not and only the manufacturer could authorize that. Today is September 21st and still no resolution. I CAN'T GET THEM TO REPLACE A DEFECTIVE TIRE!Business response

Bought a car on 2/8/22, transmission failed on 2/14.They tried to help with a replacement car within the same price range or a little higher but upon arrival to test drive said cars, one was sold and we were approved for a car with 1k higher in value. Not bad, except the $**** we put in down payment is now non existent and there would have been a new loan with a 13% interest rate.If my math is correct it would be the invisible **** plus 18k plus interest. How is that even in the same price range?Everyone has a different explanation for their madness and they are not communicating with each other.Buying the car the 6 hours, getting some answers that makes sense still hasnt happened.**** from service has been the most helpful so far, as well as *********************** whos doing the best he can to assist.If you arent looking to buy a car cash and for at least 10k more than listed online, stay clear.The prices online are just to lure you through the doors.The general manager ********************* emailed me to call him at extension 447 and he has yet to respond.3/9 Still getting the run around!Apparently the car is being taken care of by another dealership.They said that they relayed the information of the location, to us, which they didnt. I had to call today to get that.Been in communication with customer service and even they are getting the run around from eastchester Chrysler.At this point, its been a month since we purchased the car and still havent driven it for more than 6 day.Still waiting! 6/21 Finally got back the car with a new transmission and more miles than I gave them back with!5/13/2023 the car broke down on the highway with my infant in the back seat. Towed it to the dealership with a clear transmission issue and no lights on the dash. They did a $326 diagnostic with an estimate of $2500 to fix an engine and catalytic converter problem that was never there before and now a check engine light upon pick up. The car fax is all a lie.Business response
