Maguire Chevrolet Ithaca

Bought a new van in 2017. In 2019 the headliner flooded due to leaky seals (all of them) to the point that water was dripping into cupholders. The body shop dried it out, replaced the seals, and sent me on my way. They DIDNT tell me that a flooded vehicle actually had to be totaled. Nor did they check the wiring which was also flooded. In fact, I only just learned, today, that they should have totaled the vehicle as it is now potentially dangerous to drive. Two years later, the drivers window was intermittently pausing. I told them it seemed electrical in nature but they refused to look into that. They wanted me to buy a motor for it for $1500. Then the climate control knob burned off. I told them to check the electrical, as only electrical current could cause the knob to burn like that. They said no...it was all just a coincidence. I had to buy a whole new climate control system. Then I noticed that the dome light receptacle was burned. Again, they said it couldn't be electrical. But when the van stranded me on the side of the road for loss of power, the first thing they checked was the electrical. Yes, the grounding strap that is also associated with the dome light, climate control, and window had to be replaced. So if they had just checked the electrical system, maybe the problem could have been solved by replacing that grounding strap instead of me spending thousands on replacements. Just FIY...Im fairly certain that the airbag is ALSO at risk because it may also be on that same grounding strap. That's a future accident waiting to happen. Im also fairly certain that if they had just either totaled the vehicle like they supposedly should have, or at least confirmed that all of the circuits were in good condition and not impacted by the flood...well, this wouldn't even be a conversation. Do they just not care that people get hurt in vehicles that are defective? What if it was their own family driving it? Bet they might do the right thing if that were the case. But where the almighty dollar is at stake...nothing is beneath them.

Maquire Cadillac in Ithaca has very friendly and competent service employees and excellent service. I highly recommend them. I have never been disappointed in their work.

By far worst customer service I've had. I'm out of town car broke down and can't even get an answer if they have looked at it yet
