I TALKED TO TWO DIFFERENT LADIES AT RED LION CHEVY ABOUT A RECALL ON MY CAR. I ASKED FOR A RENTAL TO BE PROVIDED AND BOTH LADIES SAID THEY WOULD GIVE ME A RENTAL AT NO COST SINCE I WOULD BE DROPPING THE CAR OFF, THEY DIDNT KNOW IF THEY WOULD GET TO IT RIGHT AWAY AND THAT IT COULD TAKE UP TO 3 HRS. REASON I TALKED TO 2 LADIES, FIRST APPOINTMENT GOT CANCEL, 2ND I FORGOT ABOUT AND 3RD WAS TODAY WHICH I WENT IN. KEVIN CHECKED ME IN AND I ASKED ABOUT THE RENTAL AND IT WAS NOT IN THE SYSTEM. SO HE ASKED MATT. MATT REFUSED THE RENTAL, KEVIN EVEN TRIED TO EXPLAIN TO MATT, BUT MATT DIDNT WANT TO LSTEN, JUST SAID NO WE DONT GIVE OUT RENTALS, AND SAID SORRY I WAS TOLD WRONG AND WALKED AWAY. VERY RUDE. I AM A VERY BUSY PERSON AND DONT HAVE TIME TO WAIT HOUR(S) ON A REPAIR. THEY SAID THEY WOULD HAVE A RENTAL WAITING ON ME AT NO COST, AND THEY LIED ABOUT IT. THIS IS DISHONEST. THEY WASTED MY TIME AND GAS. I LEFT THE LYING DEALERSHIP AND WENT HOME WITH THE RECALL NOT FIXED. AS FAR AS I AM CONCERN, SI...
