An excellent dealer is worth their weight in gold! June of 2017 I bought a Yamaha Viking from Kip at Pat's Motorsports. I went with the winch instead of the warranty because of the reliability of Yamaha and the 700 motor in the Viking. About a month after I bought it, I received a 3 year warranty card in the mail. I called Kip and asked what that was about, he told me he was able to get me 3 year warranty at no cost, pretty dang cool of him right? Fast forward to last Friday, 5600 miles on my Viking now, 4 months out of warranty, and my trusty steed loses power, and makes all kinds of cool grinding noises, she is done! So we go get the trailer and drop it off at Pat's. Got the call Monday afternoon, cases cracked, cylinder cracked, head cracked, crank bent etc. A lot of money to fix. I just received a call an hour ago from Jerry the service manager, Yamaha is going to cover all parts! Kip and his new general manager really went to bat for me on this! I can only imagine a hand full of dealers that would have been able to pull this off. A HUGE thank you to Kip and the crew at Pat's! In all my years of stopping here, and buying products, they have ALWAYS offered nothing but excellent customer service, and have ALWAYS taken care of me!
Thanks again guys.
