Sandia BMW Mini

Sandia BMW does it again! I was treated beyond fair. The only dealership in ABQ to stand by their products. I consistently get more money for trades and under MSRP on purchas I was treated beyond fair. The only dealership in ABQ to stand by their products. I consistently get more money for trades and under MSRP on purchases. My older salesperson left to run Mini in Santa Fe, so when you drop in see Roxy. She'll take great care of you. Barry and Fred in the management side go the extra mile. More

A very sorry bmw experience, you see the commercials you expect quality you won't get it here. Nothing but excuses.snobbish from the receptionist too busy playing computer games, to the service manager too expect quality you won't get it here.

Without going into my personal experiences at this dealer, I will give a brief synopsis of what i feel the is problem with Sandia and Santa Fe BMW. 1. They are the only game in town, so essentia dealer, I will give a brief synopsis of what i feel the is problem with Sandia and Santa Fe BMW. 1. They are the only game in town, so essentially its either lump it or leave it attitude! (If you read some of the early postings, there is proof of that.) So how you are treated regardless of age, wealth, or being a long time customer is very inconsistent. Once I thought to myself how many times do I have to spend money in this place before someone acknowledges me a good regular customer. Approaching a customer with a greeting and have you already been taken care of or stand by and I will be with you in a moment certainly goes a long ways. 2. These problems are not just systemic to Sandia and Santa Fe BMW, but peppered here and through out other BMW dealers in the lower 48 states. 3. As of July 2013 the new JD Power automobile reliability and customer satisfaction was released, and BMW was #18 Ranking below Chevy, which is a clear indication that BMW North American has a big problem. This obviously is a clear indication that BMW has lost quality control in the US, 4. BMW North America needs to tighten up the stipulations on how their franchises are run. If you call BMW North America with a customer complain, they act as a liaison between you and the dealer. They have very little control on what they can do or tell a franchise/dealer. I feel they always will side with the dealer because they can massage terms in a way that makes the customer look uniformed, negligent, confused, or a financial issue as for the entire basis for the complaint. 5. This "Liaison Faire" attitude of poor customer service and king of the mountain only game in town issues need to be addressed. I sure BMW World Headquarters would be appalled if they knew about all the xxxxxx business that goes on at a select number of dealers here in the U.S. 6. There are two solutions to fix this Sandia/Santa Fe problem, handing down stricter guidelines to franchise/dealers. If they are not followed or adhered to, it would limit the dealers ability to get certain vehicles. LASTLY AND MOST IMPORTANTLY BMW should open a third independent dealer in ABQ, RIo Rancho, Los Lunas, etc. This has already been proposed to BMW North America. AFTER COMPETITION IS GOOD After all no should and to drive their BMW to AZ or COLO to serviced, and the sad fact is that a few people do. More

The experience we had was GREAT! From the Sales Person and his professional manor to the Finance Manager that took very good care of us. We will defiantly buy our next car with Sandia BMW. We felt at home and his professional manor to the Finance Manager that took very good care of us. We will defiantly buy our next car with Sandia BMW. We felt at home and the staff made us feel like friends. When we have any questions on the car we can call anytime and the Sales person is willing to help. The service was just Great and a very good experience! More

Stopped in this dealership to look at the 3 series sedans- The whole experience was terrible. I had to wander around the showroom for several minutes (on a Monday)before someone even asked if I need sedans- The whole experience was terrible. I had to wander around the showroom for several minutes (on a Monday)before someone even asked if I needed anything. The salesman that was assigned to me seemed annoyed with my questions and tried to show me a 1 series instead. They they offered to sell me a loaner car- but at the price they determined. Completely unwilling to negotiate..on a car they wanted me to buy. The attitude was bad enough that I went looking elsewhere at competitors cars (and buying a much nicer vehicle). Unlikely that a new car will be purchased from this dealership anytime soon. I'd rather travel to Denver/Colorado springs or Phoenix. More

I bought 3 cars over 11 years with this dealership. The only reason I am not still using the is I moved to LA and it is too far to commute. Ski on is the New Car Sales Manager. He is outstanding and never only reason I am not still using the is I moved to LA and it is too far to commute. Ski on is the New Car Sales Manager. He is outstanding and never fails to speak to my husband and I in the dealership or out and about. Roxie is our Sales Rep and is fantastic at balancing all the aspects of the sale. I now consider her a friend as well as my "BMW Chick!" what can I say about Tony? He ROCKS! He handled all my service things for 11 years. He even called my new dealership to provide some needed info about an after market add on Sandia did for my car. I consider all three of these guys to be friends now. The rest of the guys at Sandia are just as responsive. I really can't say enough about them. I am still grieving over my loss of the dealership. It is the best I have worked with, ever! Pam May More

After moving to NM, I needed to replace my O2 sensor in my BMW 325ic. I was told by the service manager that they would need to "get to know my car" before they could work on it!I was thinking, why should my BMW 325ic. I was told by the service manager that they would need to "get to know my car" before they could work on it!I was thinking, why should I have to pay for the service department to go on a date with my car. I later went to 3 other mechanics to try to diagnose what I already knew to be my o2 sensor. I ended up fixing it myself. Hey, Sandia BMW just because youre the only game in town doesn't mean we have to go to you for sales or service. I would rather drive to Arizona or California, for that matter to do my business. I have owned a 1981 bmw 323i in Germany and have alway had great service, unfortunately here in the US they seemed to be working on ego rather than customer service. Hey service department, how would you feel if you had to take your wife to the doctors and they told you they had to "get to know her first?"I guess this is not far fron the truth because this is the attitude the customers get while being at your dealership. Maybe you should offer knee pads and cigerettes when servicing your costumers. More
