As a part time resident of Ft Myers I’ve had to use this
As a part time resident of Ft Myers I’ve had to use this dealership on two occasions. In both instances I have been overwhelmed with how courteous the employees are and how caring they are of your problem. Today I noticed the flap, that covers where a trailer hitch should go, was loose and hanging. I drove to Val Ward and showed them the problem and I’m about 5 minutes it was fixed and I was on my way. Thanks for such great service.

Expensive waste of time
We visit SWFL annually. This year during our trip, we received a "service driver assist" message and phoned Val Ward Cadillac for help. We dropped our vehicle off, and after about 2.5 hours, we were called back into the service center. They were not able to fix our Escalade (with a program reset), but suggested we start with replacing our windshield, and then possibly a new front/windshield camera. We paid the nearly $200 invoice, and left. They did wash our car, for us. I do want to acknowledge that. Not a detail. Just a standard exterior car wash. (For $191.61) Upon our return back home, we were able to have our Escalade serviced at our local authorized Cadillac dealer/service center. They "scanned codes" and reset the program, and fixed my car's issue in about an hour and a half, for $92.80. I felt like Val Ward Cadillac should have been able to easily assist us with this issue, and I also felt completely taken advantage of, after the fact. We will continue to visit SWFL, however, I would never recommend this service center to anyone.

Good Afternoon Kristie, Thank you for taking a moment to reach out to us, we are sorry to see your note! Please know that if your experience was anything less than exceptional that was certainly not our intent. I spoke with our Service Manager as well as the Cadillac Certified Technician that worked on your vehicle to gather some additional information regarding your Escalade visit. Just to give you a little more insight as to how our process works, when we receive a service driver assist message concern our technicians must follow a documented diagnostic process from Cadillac which includes relearning the calibration of your front camera with the rest of the system. In the case of your Escalade, our Mechanic attempted to complete this process on two separate occasions, and it failed each time. In our experience when this happens it is typically due to aftermarket front windshield glass or a hardware failure with the camera itself and our Tech noted that the front windshield on your vehicle was not the factory GM Part. Due to the complexity of modern integrated safety systems, sometimes even the smallest tolerances can be problematic for consistent operation and we have observed similar results with aftermarket glass many times in our Collision Center. In the event of a repeated learning failure, if we attempt to open a technical case with Cadillac, one of the first questions engineers will ask our technician is whether the factory windshield has been replaced and if so, is it a factory GM Part. It is great to hear you are back in action if your other dealer was able to complete this process successfully, but please keep this in mind in the event you encounter the problem again down the road. We have a great group of people here at Val Ward that are all here to help and the last thing we would want for any of our customers is to feel taken advantage of as you noted. If one of our Service Managers can help you, we would be happy to speak with you at your earliest convenience at 239.939.2212. Thanks again and have a great close to your week. -Val Ward Cadillac
