Bought a year old Chevy from a Honda Dealership in Burlington. They swapped the right, left and spare wheels and then realized the TPMS system tracks the position of the sensors. They couldn't fix and decided it would be easier to have me take care of it at a GM dealer under the warranty. I was dumb enough to believe it. Essig reminded me that the warranty does not cover Honda dealership decisions to play round robin with wheels and not keep the TPMS system operating correctly. Fair. They were gracious and used the GM tool to get the sensors responding correctly. It was easy, I know, but they really did not have to help if they wanted to be jerks. 2. A wheel bearing went out on my Ford Explorer. The closest Ford dealer is 20+ miles away. I called Ford and asked if they would allow a deviation from normal due to the distance. They grudgingly agreed. Essig confirmed the bad wheel bearing and say they suspected a 2nd bearing. When they called Ford to confirm they got paid for both bearings, Ford disagreed. I had to take it to a Ford dealer. Essig charged me $85+ for the diagnosis. The Ford dealer determined it was just 1 bearing and replaced it. A total charge of $360 vs $750 from Essig. Here is where I am surmising imprudence. They seem more motivated by money than by customer satisfaction. I suspect Ford would have allowed them to fix the single wheeling bearing, but because their estimate exceeded an outsource amount, Ford canned the operation. Essig's amount was more than 2x the necessary repair! Plus I lost 1/2 day due to the drive and repair time and I may or may not get the $85 diagnosis charge back. About that, Essigs diagnosis charge is $100/hr. Given the human condition to want more money, one can imagine they will generally charge in the $80-100 range. The 2 Ford dealers I have worked with have a fixed fee of $50 and $65. I'd be ok with $100/hr but only if they have a cap of $100. If they haven't figured it out in 1 hour, they should not be in business. In total, I can only given them 3 stars.

Since I was in Bettendorf, I thought I might as well pull in and see what Lindquist had to say; they were super busy but the technician knew exactly what was wrong (needed an update)...they squeezed me in, ran the update, washed and vacuumed my car and even fixed the broken window button. They were super friendly and helpful and seemed pleased that I was using them for service. I went back a few weeks later because my windshield wiper broke while driving down the road during a snow/rain storm; they were able to fix it and get me back in the road in less than 15 min. I plan to have all of my service done at Lindquist from now on; it is well worth the trip across the bridge. I only wish they would take walk-in oil changes.

In April of 2022, I made contact with salesman Jeff Appleman at Hiland Toyota. I advised what I was…read morelooking for. Due to a shortage of parts and inventory due to the COVID fallout, I had to be put on an allocation list with a fully refundable $500 deposit. Jeff explained exactly how it worked and would keep me up to date monthly as to how things were going. Jeff did as he said he would. He contacted me monthly to let me know where I was on the allocation list. The one thing I appreciated was that Jeff did not try to push another model on me just to make the sale. After about five months, I received my first call from Jeff letting me know that they had an allocation of the model I wanted but the car did not have the exact extra's I wanted. Over the next two months, I would receive three more calls for new allocations and that I was finally #1 on the list for the model I requested. I still passed because I had already waited this long so I might as well wait until the vehicle I specifically wanted was available. In month eight, I received the call that the exact car I wanted with all of the correct upgrades was available and I was given a build date. Three weeks after the build date, the car was at the dealership. I showed up a few days later to pick it up. Jeff met me and we went through all of the necessary details along with a test drive of the vehicle in question. After the test drive, I met with the financial officer and negotiated my loan in addition to just a few optional upsells options. Tip..... the extended warranty is negotiable. Soon after I met with Jeff again and I was on my way home with my new car. All of the staff I came across while I was there were nice and accommodating. Nobody is pushy. The experience was excellent and should I ever buy a new Toyota again, I will definitely come to this dealership first. If you want a terrific non pushy experience, especially because you know exactly what you want, contact Jeff Appleman. I really believe this was a win/win for everyone involved. And just for the record, I realize this review will show being made by "Jeff A". It is purely coincidental. same first name and Last name initial but we are in fact two different people with no relation. GREAT EXPERIENCE!!!

Recently had my vehicle serviced by moline transmission. This all started when I had called them…read moreand wanted to get information on replacing a slave cylinder on my vehicle. I would provide the parts and everything needed to install on the vehicle. I was quoted 7hours since the transmission needed to be removed to install a new slave cylinder. I called on October 27th and they stated they had about a week worth of work to complete before they would be able to pick up additional jobs. I had no problem with this as I decided to make the appointment for November 13th (17days from appointment call). Time comes to have my vehicle towed and it's dropped off early morning Monday November 13th. I figured I'd give them time and let them work to complete the job. Friday November 17th comes and I hadn't heard anything from them so I call and receive an update. Moline transmission stated they had a couple call ins during the week and they hadn't touched my car. Not a horrible issue but I figured they had plenty of time to finish. I understand things happen. Following week of November 20th, they begin the work. Once again I figure 7hrs at a leisure pace the job should be done right in time for me to have the car before Thursday thanksgiving. I decide to call on Wednesday afternoon and ask for an update. Moline transmission stated they're tidying everything up and they're doing their best to have it done by close of business day 5pm as they are closed for thanksgiving. 5pm comes around and I never hear anything. At this point I figure I'll go to the shop on Friday to see what the delay is. I go to shop Friday morning and they have a sign saying they are closed both Thursday and Friday as well as the weekend as they only work Monday-Friday. At this point I'm disappointed, I believed I could have a reputable shop complete the work in a timely manner as I would have believed they had sufficient time. (Let it be noted there was a hiccup in parts provided yet that was quickly resolved in less than 1hr) I was told because of this they needed to move on to another vehicle and put my car on hold. Monday November 27th I call again for an update and they once again state they're still working on the car and should have it done today. More time passes on and no call. Finally, Wednesday November 29th I am frustrated because I haven't received my car , I was told 2 times on separate days they should have the car done by end of business but yet they continued to work on it. The update for today was they are letting it sit as it has been bled and will be test driven later in the day to ensure the work was done properly. The car had been sitting at the shop since November 13th and the job was finally completed November 29th. I had my car in storage and placed the vehicle back on full coverage insurance because it was going to be driven publicly again. Due to the excessive length of time it was being worked on I felt as if I needed to place the vehicle back on storage insurance as it seemed that's what I was paying for. I gave moline transmission a 17day notice of my car being dropped off. They had the car for 16/17 days from drop off. The job was quoted 7hrs, moline transmission stated they worked on the car much longer than 7hrs and the job wasn't going the way they would have liked but only were going to charge me the 7hrs. I believe they understood this isn't the service they want to provide. In the end the job itself was completed well as my car returned to proper function. The timeliness to complete my car was very poor. If you are able to be without your car for over half a month then they'll work with you. If you have a timeline seek other options. This was my experience and I understand others have better/worse experiences.
