STAY AWAY – STAY AWAY – STAY AWAY – CUSTORMER SERVICE IS HORRIBLE. We purchased a used boat from Larson PowerBoats two month ago and had nothing but problems. It might be because we only spent $32,000. Here is a synopsis of our problems; 1. When we purchased the boat I specifically asked about any type of warranty on a used boat. I was told, “You are buying from Larson, don’t worry, we will take care of you.” We would regret taking them at their word. Saleswoman Crystal is an absolute joke, don’t even talk with her. 2.

Saleswoman Crystal said she would check and call me right back. Since I hadn’t heard anything, I called back over 4 hours later and learned Crystal was now out on a boat test drive with a new customer. To date I have never received a call back from her. 7. Over the next couple weeks I had come to know Jeff, the new sales manager. After he explained he is replacing the “deficient” manag

I’m very pleased with Northshore Automotive. It’s the only place I bring my cars to for maintenance. Why? They do excellent work, they have reasonable prices, and they have excellent customer service. It's one of those things you just want to keep it for yourself, but I guess I have to share. I would not go anywhere else!
