RedCoach Atlanta Ocala recent customer reviews

I have used the Red Coach line to and from Atlanta, GA and Ocala, FL several times. I have always been satisfied with the service and am glad of its comfort and availability. This time however, I put my wife on the bus from Atlanta to Ocala. I had hoped for a "perfect" experience, as it has been with me previously. Unfortunately, as relayed to me by my wife, the bus did NOT have HEAT. There was an indicator on the dashboard of the vehicle that warned the driver of low cooling fluids. An alert beeping noise was constant throughout the trip of approximately six (6) hours.
