Unfortunately, multiple power companies have proven they can't successfully maintain and operate a power grid. They decided to forgo maintenance in favor of higher, short term profits. (Southern California Edison is the biggest example.)
A few "fun" points:
- Oil companies have formed multiple organizations to promote petroleum and vilify every other energy source. They pay people to work for these organizations and they quite literally lie for a living. (It's very similar to the "Tobacco Institute" which used to put people on...
To the OP, I'm really sorry you got overcharged by the Jeep dealer. But what's done is done. I would politely suggest you simply move on and enjoy your Gladiator.
This is a big problem everywhere. People just go bonkers. Multiple towns in Florida which used to roll out the welcome mats for college Spring Breakers have recently changed their tunes to, "You are no longer welcome here!".
When I got my Gladiator I asked a fellow Jeep owner if he could...
The Grange Motors guys specifically stated above there is a surcharge is your Jeep
The guy from Granger Motors stated there is a surcharge at 12k and 24k miles.
I don't mean to sound like a jerk when I say I don't think the dealer will be held accountable. I would genuinely like to see a thorough investigation into what caused this Gladiator fire to include potential dealer negligence. It's just that I've seen these situations many times and I've never...
What's the adjuster going to do, question whether or not the Gladiator caught fire and burned? Dollars to doughnuts, the adjuster will not care about any work done by the dealer before the meltdown. I would genuinely be interested to know if it turns out otherwise.
All the talk of forcing the dealer to accept responsibility sounds logical. The thing is, I hear about dealers screwing things up all the time and I've NEVER heard of a dealer being held accountable. So, maybe the dealers force non-disclosure agreements? Or maybe they are simply positioned to...
Interesting. It appears dealers just don't care about Yelp reviews.
My son used to manage the bar at a nice restaurant. Yelp constantly called him saying things like, "You've got some great reviews here waiting to be posted. And there a few negative reviews can hide. Are you ready to start a...
I doubt any lawyer would go anywhere near a claim against a car dealer. An insurance company could possibly go after a dealer to cover their losses. But they don't and that speaks volumes.
Yelp is pretty useless. They take payments to promote positive reviews and hide negative reviews. And if anyone is going to pay for that, it's a dealer.
Google reviews appear useful. Not sure if there's any corruption there, but dealers don't care.
BBB is completely useless. You can file a...
If Jeep dealers and other dealers actually used certified technicians to do oil changes, this would be much less of an issue. It speaks volumes that Jeep literally gave me multiple, free oil changes when I bought my JT, but I refused to even consider using those free changes. I will not allow...
Yes, it is completely unreasonable. End of discussion. Only someone from a dealer would think otherwise.
It's very obvious when an engine suffers damage from lack of oil changes. Without that obvious damage, there is no reason for a dealer to question oil changes. It's just another way to screw...
And just where is Will Smith when you need him?
As my daughter used to say, "Eww!".
Seriously, my own code of conduct is if people are clearly on a very tight budget and just doing their best to build a Jeep, cool. More power to them. No matter what the look, they will get no shade from me...
This sales chart is interesting. If you click on the arrows up top twice to sort from highest to lowest, Dodge is number 17. Their sales numbers in January of 2021 of 20,478 is abysmal compared to Toyota, Ford and Chevrolet which are well above 100,000. The numbers get progressively worse...
