Bill Aldridge, the company's owner, said his company performed emergency leak repair work at Riverside Chevrolet in late December. His company sent an invoice under $1,000 to the dealership. Clients normally have 30 days to pay the bill.

Aldridge said the dealership did not respond to any method of communication.

The News4Jax I-TEAM has reached out to the family that owns the dealership for comment. It has declined interview requests since the I-TEAM began a lengthy investigation into customer complaints.

The State of Florida, Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, Department of Revenue and Office of the Attorney General are investigating the dealership as well, after numerous customer complaints.
