Chrysler Jeep Recognises Five Star dealers A record number of Chrysler Jeep dealerships have earned the company’s highest recognition for excellence in customer service, DaimlerChrysler announced today. Simultaneously, the company has announced that Wanneroo Chrysler Jeep in Western Australia has taken out the prestigious 2004 dealer of the year award. Twenty-nine Chrysler Jeep dealerships across the country earned Five Star certification for 2004, the highest recognition for distinction in customer service. Seven of the 29 dealers were awarded Five Star certification for the first time. “This is a record number of dealerships to be awarded Five Star certification,” said Gerry Jenkins, managing director, Chrysler Jeep Australia. “The result clearly indicates that the dealer network is continually investing in facilities and processes to ensure customers have the best possible Chrysler Jeep experience,” he said. Chrysler Jeep dealers achieve Five Star certification by successfully adhering to a strict set of training, facility and process requirements designed to maximise customer satisfaction. “Outstanding customer satisfaction is just one vital part of the process,” said Jenkins. “Five Star dealerships dedicate themselves to ongoing dealer development and process improvement. “This is an important program for Chrysler Jeep recognising our dealer’s commitment to customers and encouraging them to constantly improve the way they do business,” said Jenkins. Five Star dealers prove themselves with ongoing evaluation throughout the year and are certified at the end of each year. “We are thrilled to be named dealer of the year,” said Ian Barras, dealer principal at Wanneroo Chrysler Jeep. “The award acknowledges the efforts of our staff in what has been a truly magnificent team effort. “Having been a Five Star dealer since the program was introduced in 2001, we appreciate the importance of the principals to our success. “The initiative has been good for our business and we’d like to think good for our customer’s as well,” said Barras.
