Severity first, then days waiting. Each draft is written in the store voice and ready to publish.
“Car came back with a scuff on the driver door. I was told to file it with my own insurance. Absolutely not.”

AI-SUGGESTED REPLY
Ashley, being told to file with your own insurance for damage that happened in our care is the wrong answer, and I am overriding it. Bring the car in this week — we will repair the door at our cost, in our body shop, with a loaner while it is here. I also want to hear what happened at the counter, because that response was not our policy.
Why this draft: Eleven days open plus 14 public comments makes this the most expensive item in the queue. Reply before anything else today.
“Dropped my Rogue off Monday for a transmission check. Nobody called me for three days. I had to drive over there myself to find out it had not even been looked at.”

“Quoted $340 for brakes over the phone, invoice came to $612. The extra work may have been needed but nobody asked me first.”

Response Rate vs Ourstman Laurel
Percent of reviews answered, rolling monthly. Laurel has not dropped below 92% all year, and it shows up in the ChatGPT prompts we keep losing to them.
Response SLA by Severity
CURRENT VS TARGET| Severity | Trigger | Target reply | Current average | Owner | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Critical | 1–2★, damage or pricing dispute | 4 hours | 2.1 days | Service Director | Failing |
| High | 3★ or a competitor named | 12 hours | 31 hours | GSM | Failing |
| Medium | 4★ with a stated gap | 48 hours | 44 hours | BDC Lead | On target |
| Low | 5★ thank-you | 5 days | 6.4 days | BDC Lead | At risk |
Critical items are failing by a factor of twelve. Assign the Service Director a 9am and 4pm queue check starting Aug 7, 2026 — that alone clears the 4-hour SLA on every 1–2 star review without adding headcount.
