I recently took my 2023 Palisade to Agincourt Hyundai to - Denis Pritchard
I recently took my 2023 Palisade to Agincourt Hyundai to have a cracked windshield replaced, I took my car there because generally a dealership is a trusted venue. This dealership, like all dealerships called in a third party to do the work, I was unaware that they did this. When I got my car back I instantly noticed a few things that were not done correctly. The top weather strip was "wavy" and in at least three places the strip was proud of the roof therefore creating a water trap. The Heads Up Display was tilted and out of focus, and could not be rectified by the adjustment settings. Glue was oozing out from the velour pillars on the inside of the car, the camera cowling cover was not fitted back properly nor could it be after they completed the work. I reported these facts to the service manager only for him to say that everything would "settle" into place, just give it time. I was not at all happy with this response and so I went to a reputable glass installer in my area, Richmond Hill Auto Glass. They told me that the windshield had been incorrectly installed, it was installed crookedly, it was the incorrect part number for this vehicle and they pointed out some other faults. I agreed to have the windshield re-done by Richmond Hill Auto Glass. When I returned to Agincourt Hyundai they agreed to have their glass installer do the job over again, I declined saying I had lost all faith in their installer, I asked for my deductible to be returned and they refused. I subsequently had the windshield replaced by Richmond Hill Auto Glass and wow what a difference. I could instantly see the top weatherstrip was absolutely installed perfectly, there was no visible glue oozing from the velour pillars inside the car, the camera cowling fitted perfectly and best of all the Heads Up Display was in focus and positioned correctly. The installer pointed out a number of other faults that they found that wouldn't have been noticeable unless the work was re-done, for example, the cowling around the wipers should have been removed in order to install the glass properly, instead the dealership's installer decided this was too much work and slid the windshield under the cowling, a shortcut of a few minutes. Richmond Hill Auto Glass said that whoever installed my windshield was a beginner and really did not know how to do the job properly, I was amazed at the difference in workmanship, Richmond Hill Auto Glass obviously know what they are doing and I would refer anyone who requires this sort of work done to them, you won't be disappointed. As for Agincourt Hyundai, I have lost complete trust in this dealership and will not be returning to them for future servicing of my Palisade.
