This is a heinous chronicle of events that started when Sears Auto Center at Florida Mall LOST our keys and car remote. That same day, they mounted tires on our vehicle. It is Sears policy according to managers Bob Parr and Cory that SEARS DOES NOT CHECK THE TIRE PRESSURE BEFORE A CUSTOMER LEAVES if the customer does NOT buy the tires from SEARS! We left on an under-inflated tire that went completely flat within 36 hours.

We are still negatively impacted by the lies of the store managers, Bob Parr, Cory and Melanie in their one-sided investigation. We have been advised by Joe Oakes of Sears Loss Prevention, the BBB, Orange County Sheriff and Sears Corporate and now several law firms to file legal action in an attempt to recover at minimum the $452.96 for replacement of our keys and remote from Toyota of Orlando.

Rose, Escalations
Rose states because we contacted BBB, we had to go through them. But per the BBB, since the Orange County Sheriff filed a police report for our stolen/lost keys by Sears employees, Sears must handle this. Per BBB, they cannot get involved in a situation which is a legal one against Sears. Thus, BBB referred me to Corporate Offices. Rose transfers ELIGIA Case Manager, where I can only leave a message with telephone number.

Interesting question by Rose: She states that in their case notes it states that Sears tried to contact us in August. THIS IS FALSE. NO ONE ever tried to contact us after July, despite my persistent voice mail messages to Alyssa. Alyssa A. never contacted us back. FURTHERMORE, we tried numerous occasions to open cases, for which Sears just AUTOMATICALLY closes them! Twitter @sears and @searscares BOTH blocked us from trying to get them to help us.

ANOTHER interesting statement by Rose: Why is this going on so long? Answer: Because we have been going through all of the Sears bureaucracy and “steps” to get Sears to simply reimburse us the $452.96 that Alyssa A. promised as soon as we submitted the estimate from Toyota of Orlando back in July 2013. It is now October. Despite Sears NOT contacting us since July, Sears and SearsCares ignoring then blocking our communications via Twitter and their customer online inquiry, we still make every attempt to allow Sears to satisfy this estimate without legal action against them.

How Sears Auto Center managers and employees lied in their “Investigation”

Sears definition of — investigation —
1. Ask their employees some questions.
2. Their employees lie.
3. Sears closes the investigation.

… doing NOTHING for their wronged customer.

Sears NEVER interviewed us, customers who were harmed, in their one-sided “investigation.”

Sears IGNORES the fact that the Orange County Sheriff deputy had to file a police report against Sears the evening of June 4, 2013, which report we have in our possession, proving that Sears managers and employees lied to cover their negligence

Some of the instances of negligence by Sears employees include:

• Sears employees lying that they never had our keys at the onset
• Sears manager Bob Parr having three women customers search through the maintenance bays unescorted, looking through mechanics’ stations, walking through oil and over hydraulic lifts, for which we have PHOTOGRAPHS.
• Our submitting to illegal personal bag searches by Melanie to prove that we did not have the keys

Sears Auto Center Crooked Policies

• Sears Auto Centers mechanics do NOT have to be certified to work on your vehicle.
• Sears Auto LOST or stole our keys.
• Sears Auto Florida Mall allowed us to walk through their maintenance bay and service areas unescorted in three-hour search for our keys that their employees stole or misplaced.
• They mounted a tire that went FLAT on the way home because it is not their policy to check tire pressure when mounting tires you did not buy from Sears.
• Sears puts customers in harm’s way.
• Sears employees lied in their one-side investigation.
• Still fighting with corporate about promised reimbursement by Alyssa A.
• Manager at Sears Tire and Auto Florida Mall LIED on reports despite a formal police report filed with Orlando Sheriff date they lost the keys.
• Next steps: Ripoff Report, Orlando Sentinel, Action News and Florida State Attorney General Pam Bondi, legal battles.
