That is great to hear! Thank you for servicing with us. We will share the kudos with Johnny!

They never answer the phone!

They never answer the phone! They don’t text you back with any updates. They keep your car for weeks. My car has been there since Monday. I called and texted the service number all day Monday and no response. Finally Tuesday Sean service advisor calls and says oh I tried texting yesterday but didn’t hear back, doesn’t think to call, finally Tuesday afternoon was able to talk to him via text. Told me car would be seen by end of business day. Here we are Friday no update, no changes to my car, hasn’t been seen, can’t get a hold of anyone.

We're sorry we weren't able to make contact with you. It sounds like Sean text and called at least once. We are happy to assist you. Please feel free to contact our service manager at jfarminer@kearnymesaford.com.

Consumer response

Thanks for finally chiming in! It’s interesting how quickly you respond to a public review, yet I’ve been trying to reach someone all week without success. Sean texting “at least once” doesn’t exactly count as active communication—especially when my car has been sitting untouched since Monday with zero updates. I’ve now had to pay out-of-pocket for a rental car because of delays caused by your team, and I even provided notarized proof of ownership that your service staff refused to acknowledge. This isn’t just about poor communication—it’s about accountability. I’ll be emailing jfarminer@kearnymesaford.com as suggested, but I truly hope that gets more attention than my calls and texts did. Looking forward to a real resolution—not just a public response.

Great experience dealing with Virginia.

Great experience dealing with Virginia. Very helpful and informative with what I needed done to my vehicle. Look forward to dealing with Virginia in the future with all our services for this and all other vehicles.

Smooth and easy service.

Smooth and easy service. Attendant Johnny was clear in his communication. Explained why the services were necessary but wasn?t pushy to do certain services.
