Set up appointment for service due to engine light which - bluesproperties
Set up appointment for service due to engine light which came on. Also mentioned that there was a gas cap light on as well, but that was not our priority, the engine light was. Dodge Cranbrook took our 2013 RAM 1500 in, told us that diagnostic fee of $175 + tax will also apply to any repair the truck might need. After 1.5 hrs we were called and told that a faulty switch was the culprit and that total price, including the switch and taxes came in just under $400.00. When we payed the bill and subsequently turned the truck on, the engine light was fully lit up on the dash as it was prior to our appointment. The gas cap light was off. When we immediately return to the service department to ask why the actual issue we brought in the truck for was not fixed, we were told that each light requires new diagnostic charge and that, if we wish to address this second light, we have to have another appointment (we travel 29km one way to get to this dealer) and pay another diagnostic fee. No applogies were given. We had multiple dash lights on in the past and the dealership on Vancouver Island, we usually deal with, always charged only one diagnostic fee to diagnose all issues associated with all the lights. The total charge for this second repair was $1200.00 and did include another diagnostic fee of $179.00. Although the Service Manager was very polite and patient and so was the curtesy car driver, same can not be said for the front desk clerk who assisted us on intake.
