If I could rate them with a negative number I would. I took my 2016 Jeep Cherokee to DeWildt’s service department the week of March 20th. I told Service Advisor Ray Baki about a hissing noise coming I took my 2016 Jeep Cherokee to DeWildt’s service department the week of March 20th. I told Service Advisor Ray Baki about a hissing noise coming from beneath the dashboard and that it stopped when the climate control system was turned off. I said my local service tech determined the refrigerant from the climate control system was leaking and that he had recommended bringing the Cherokee to a Jeep dealer as replacing the fluid in the system required a special tool generally only found at dealerships. The following day I received a call from Ray Baki, during which he told me hoses from the climate control system and cooling system were leaking and that the one was at risk of tearing open the other causing the engine to over heat and possibly seize up. Mr. Baki gave me an estimate of $2,900 plus tax to make the necessary repairs. Fearful of the engine overheating I approved going ahead with the work. When I picked up my Jeep the final total came to $3,587.63. A little over a week after paying for the work done on my Cherokee I turned on the Climate Control system only to discover the air conditioner would not blow cold. A quick check with my independent service center confirmed the Jeep’s climate control system had neither been repaired nor had the refrigerant been replaced. I took the car back to DeWildt where upon I was told by Mr. Baki I had not asked to have the refrigerant replaced nor had I asked to have a leak in the system repaired. He went on to say he would be happy to have his tech look at the system and call me with an estimate of what it would take to fix the problem. The very problem I had taken the car to DeWildt for in the first place. I still needed to have my Jeep’s climate control system repaired but there was no way I would take it back to DeWildt. While searching Chrysler Jeep dealership reviews for a reasonably reliable service department I learned of other ways dealerships take advantage of FCA/Stelantis vehicle owners. FCA/Stelantis Canada provides its dealer service departments with a database (Pro Demand) of time required for various repairs to its vehicles. Thanks to the resources made possible by the internet I discovered DeWildt’s service department significantly increased the times charged to my bill to: Replace Radiator, Replace Oil Filter Housing, and Chemically Clean the cooling system. After acquiring estimates for the same type(s) of service and repair I discovered DeWildt over charged me approximately $650 for these unnecessary repairs not to mention completely failing to fix the climate control problem. PLEASE NOTE while the summary at the beginning of my original invoice regarding my remarks as to what was happening with the Jeep are correct it is important to note Mr. Baki, DeWildt’s service advisor, omitted my initial remarks: * I told him there was a hissing noise coming from beneath the dashboard * I told him the noise stopped when the climate control system was turned off and I believed that was where the problem was * I said I had taken the car to a local service center where I was told the fluid in the climate control system needed replacing but it could only be done with a tool they did not have - they recommended taking the Jeep to a dealer service center * When asked by Mr. Baki if the car overheated I said “No” and reported the temperature gauge was working properly and that the Check Engine like had NOT come on * Additionally, I told them there were no signs of coolant leakage of any kind including on the concrete surface of my driveway. Even though I had to drive miles out of Hamilton I found a Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram dealer to repair my Jeep’s Climate Control system in a timely manner and at a time rate in line with FCA/Stelantis guidelines.

When my car was struck while parked on the street I informed my insurance company I wanted to use their services based on a previous service experience. Given my busy work from home schedule and the realities of the COVID-19 pandemic, they accommodated me by picking up my car, answering all my questions via phone, and after the repairs were completed returned it as good as new. Their customer service was highly responsive, knowledgeable and professional. Thank you! More
So last week my engine blew in my brand new 2019 Dodge Challenger Scat Pack Widebody with only 3,800km on it, I live a 2 minute drive from Dewildt so I took my car there for them to do a diagnostic on it Challenger Scat Pack Widebody with only 3,800km on it, I live a 2 minute drive from Dewildt so I took my car there for them to do a diagnostic on it and tell me what happen and order me a new engine because i knew it was a manufacturing defect, right away they (Mitch the Service Advisor) and (Dominic Service Manager) gave me horrible response as to why they shouldn’t work on my car and how I should not service my car there because I didn’t buy it from there, also reminding me a couple times that if they ordered me a new engine it wouldn’t be able to get here until mid-late August. Also telling me that they won’t be able to do a diagnostic until the next week, and finally saying how they wouldn’t be able to give me a rental car for more than 5 days. This is absolutely horrible service never again will I go back there. Mopar is mopar, Dodge is Dodge. There is absolutely no reason they had to treat me like that. Disgusting. More
