Bonus if they include a human/non-robo-worded intention to investigate and correct the staff behavior (though this relies on OP's good faith).
I agree with you. However, how AA deals with the complaint is not within the customers' control. Giving honest, straightforward feedback is the best we can do. How the company treats it will eventually reflect on how much they value it.
