My Review of Herb Chambers BMW:
Service was absolutley horrid when my X5 was towed in after having some transmission problems at 5900 miles. The service advisor, Marco, is a complete jerk. I will never deal with this dealership again. He seems like a very lazy person and didn't go the extra mile to help me out.
I had initially asked for a loaner car or some sort of assistance for me to get around, seeing that my car was not mobile. He told me that in order to be provided with a loaner, I would have had to purchased the car at their dealership. Ok, that's understandable.
So I asked if my car could be towed to the dealership I purchased the car at, with no charge. He tells me I would have to call them up. I asked him if he could provide me with the number (BMW of Peabody), and he tells me, he doesn't know the number and I would have to call 411. I didn't want to get charged for dialing 411 on my cell phone so I asked if I could get my car keys to get back into my car, where I have the buisness card of the dealership. He tells me, the keys are in the car. At that point, I was like, what the f*ck. I just walked into the service dept with the guy who parked my car, AND HAD THE KEYS WITH HIM. At this point, he decides to tell me, "Oh, let me just get the number for you." Didn't he just tell me he doesn't know the number?!?!
After I talked with my own dealer and confirmed that loaners are complimentary at the dealer you purchased your car from, I had no choice but to leave the car at Herb Chambers. The guy then recommends me to take the train back home. If I was to do that, I would have taken me 2 hours to get home, transferring from train to train, bus to bus. At that point, I was just too upset, walked out, and had a friend pick me up.
Besides that scenario, the guys's tone of voice was absolutley not accomodating. Their service area is just plain sh*tty, at least compared to BMW of Peabody. Expect me to file a complaint and and for me to give them a horrible review when BMW calls me up to do a customer satisfaction survey.
I hope this guy gets rammed into when a car pulls into the service bay. He's also lucky I was sober and tired, or else I would've beaten the sh*t out of him and left him for half dead.
The only good customer service I got was from BMW Roadside Assistance and the tow truck company and driver.
