Was told I needed a new rear tire because there was a bulge in it, so the car failed inspection. I couldn't get it done that day and had to come back. Paid $40 for the inspection up front. Returned two weeks later had original tire replaced but they tell me now I need to replace the other rear tire because it has a bulge in it now. So yet again the car fails. I can't afford another tire that day and set up another appointment for the following Saturday. Come back and have 2nd tire done. This time I'm told that because the brake light cover on the hatch of my Rondo I am being failed a 3rd time. The cover has been broken for 5 years (which does include the previous 2 visits to their service department)!!!! I used to go to Bonneville & Sons Kia dealership for my inspections and they never said anything about it!! So they expect me to come back a 4th time. Not to mention on the 3rd visit they charged me another $20 for another inspection. Not only are they scam artists but incompetent also well!

After they performed the repairs and less than a mile down the road, I returned back to their service shop with a check engine light. About another $8,000 later of coolant related issues, the truck didn't start or run. So, I had the truck towed from this dealership to another service repair shop to fix the engine to start and run again. Its indicated by Cummins Corporate Paralegal report, that... during when the coolant lines was repaired. "...the dealer did not follow proper procedure for evacuating the air from the cooling system..." which caused the additional engine damage. Its also indicated by the work order that the dealer operated the engine with 40% to 50% low on coolant during coolant lines replacement. Buyer Beware ! of this Kenworth dealership in Concord NH to conduct any vehicle repairs. John

They were "married" and extremely rusted, Tim's confidence assured me my vehicle was in the right hands. He worked his magic, and my front end is as tight and smooth as new. A+
