Mercedes-Benz of Valencia

I had taken my car to MB Valencia for scheduled maintenance 2 times now. BOTH times there was some malfunction within days of picking the car up that required warranty work. That is irritating, but maintenance 2 times now. BOTH times there was some malfunction within days of picking the car up that required warranty work. That is irritating, but their general lack of respect for their customers is unsettling. I had a suspension problem that they have tried to pass off as "tires not recommended by Mercedes-Benz" 2 separate occasions, both times saying they changed the tires and the issue went away. I changed the tires, yet the problem persisted. Another mechanic verified its not the tires. The dealer again said its the tires. The tech even brought my wheel bearing in 15 minutes after I had dropped the car off to show me there is nothing wrong with it. I know that the wheel bearing cannot be pulled out in 15 minutes, and also a brand new bearing with brand new grease on it is quite obviously NOT the one from my car that has over 80,000 miles on it. The mechanic insisted that I have no idea what I am talking about. I jacked the car up and verified play in the wheel, yet he swears there is none. The guy is clearly incompetent, and is trying to scam my warranty company. Thus far I have filed complaints with my states attorney, the BBB, and my warranty company. Additionally they emailed me a survey that they asked me to fill out and email back as quickly as I can. After 2 weeks they called me and thanked me for filling it out. Problem with that is that I never got the survey. The email address the survey was returned from is NOT the email address they have on record for me. I contacted yahoo mail, and the email address was established with my personal information within a few days of the survey being sent out. Their survey people swear they did not fraudulently create this email address. I would not have written them a good survey and they knew it so their employees created an email address in order to get a good review. Makes me wonder what other kinds of identity theft these people are capable of. This instance is being reported to the states attorneys identity theft division immediately as well. If you can at all avoid this dealership for service, I would recommend you do so. More

I have purchased four cars from Valencia Mercedes and have been so happy with the dealership. They are very competitive in price, and the service is wonderful. My salesman (Raymond) spent hours showing have been so happy with the dealership. They are very competitive in price, and the service is wonderful. My salesman (Raymond) spent hours showing my husband and myself how to USE all the expceptional features on the car. I usually leave a dealership confused with all the new features on my latest purchase. The service department is exceptional. Carol, the service manager has always attended to my needs, and makes sure I am completly satisfied. Thank you Valencia Mercedes for making this experience so pleasurable. More

This was an amazing experience! The dealership was clean, fun, and beautiful! I recently bought a new E coupe and I couldn't have been treated better! I felt like a King! While discussing the price of the ca fun, and beautiful! I recently bought a new E coupe and I couldn't have been treated better! I felt like a King! While discussing the price of the car, which was $2,200 under invoice, my children (9 and 11 years of age) made themselves comfortable in the lounge with the T.V and cofee/ cocoa machine. They helped themselves to complimentry cookies and hot chocalte. i would highly recomend More

I definitely recommend this dealership for high standard of integrity, reliability, honesty and friendliness. I've never felt pressured by the sales people, the people handling the finance or the service pe of integrity, reliability, honesty and friendliness. I've never felt pressured by the sales people, the people handling the finance or the service people. They addressed all my questions in a professional, yet kind manner. The people in the service department have been very low key and have made my visits comfortable. They have a nice lounge area to wait in providing coffee, water, etc. When they say the car will be ready in one hour, it is. Unlike my experiences at other dealers, I don't feel like I'm being attacked by a service representative trying to sell me everything he or she can just to up their commission. I have referred many friends and family to Valencia Mercedes. Some of them purchased cars and other leased them. In both instances, their feedbsck to me was the same as I have experienced personally. I plan to purchase any future Mercedes at Valencia Mercedes. It's always nice to drive a great car and know I have a competent company and dealership bind me. MG More

I went to this dealership to purchase a car, And after being pushed into buying, they were extremely rude. They had to keep my car for detailing. When I arrived to pick up by car it was a gash on the hoo being pushed into buying, they were extremely rude. They had to keep my car for detailing. When I arrived to pick up by car it was a gash on the hood. So after much stress of begging them to fix what they had done to my car, they finally agreed to repair it. After almost three weeks of repairing my car, they called and said it was ready, now, when I go to pick it up, it had a crack in the front window, and they refused to repair it, and the owner Mr. Sage told me to never come back to his dealership again. Now I have never had such a horrible expierence in buying a car that it left me so disappointed in ever buying a car again, not only was this a bad expierence but the car itself is not certified, the brakes are bad my engine light and brake lights stay on and I don't know what to do at this point, Mr. Sage and his people were so cruel to me I don't know where to take my car. I have not driven it that much to have all of these problems. I reported it to the corporation and they don't seem to care about my situation. If you can advise me, please help. I don't want to be stuck with car and all of the problems I never caused. Sincerely, E.W. More

I took my car for regular routine to this dealership since I moved to Santa Clarita from Glendale. I had the worst service experience. First, they called me to tell me that my car needed several mechani since I moved to Santa Clarita from Glendale. I had the worst service experience. First, they called me to tell me that my car needed several mechanical work beyond what is provided in Service B. I told them to just perform the regular service and that I would take my car to another dealership to get the work performed. A day after I picked up my car from service, I started having problems: my car door holders broke (on both driver and passenger side), my center console came apart, my oil malfunction warning came on, the washer fluid warning light came on, and my car started to have problems. I took it to another dealership where I personally knew the mechanics who worked there and they told me that several parts were not put back correctly (some of the valves were left open), that some wires were somehow disconnected. They also told me that I did not need the additional work that Mercedes of Valencia recommended. I will never return to this dealership. I never called them to notify them of the issues I experienced since I was too upset to deal with them. I believe that they intentionally did the damages to my car so I would return to get them repaired with them. This is not the best way to win a customer. I do not recommend this dealership. More

I took my CLK500 in for brake squeeling in December 2008 to MERCEDES BENZ OF VALENCIA. The noise was diagnosed as worn out brake pads in the front. My service technician told me I had to replace both the to MERCEDES BENZ OF VALENCIA. The noise was diagnosed as worn out brake pads in the front. My service technician told me I had to replace both the pads and rotors to eliminate the noise. So I did. Two weeks later, the noise still persisted, and took the car back in. This time I was told the rear brake pads and rotors needed to be replaced. Annoyed that I wasn't told this the first time, and having wasted another day at the dealer, I gave in and replaced them. We're talking pads AND ROTORS. The same day off the lot, I hear the noise again nonstop. Pissed, I return to the dealership the next day and complain. The pads are then dipped in anti-squeel and put back on, and the rep tells me that there should be no noise at all coming from brakes since all are brand new. The car is good for about a month and half, at which point the noise comes back full force, every time i brake day or night. I return to the dealer uncontent. They have a technician sit with me and drive to hear the noise... we don't even make it out of the lot when the technician says "i hear it loud and clear, dont bother leaving the lot". SO my service rep tells me he will replace them. I get a call the next day and my rep says his service foreman tried to duplicate the noise and could not after driving 70 miles with it. I told him "why did you have my ride with a technician who validated the noise, only to tell me otherwise today?" He tells me he will bring it up with his manager. His manager decides that since I wore out the brakes they might be overheating and causing this, and they wont replace. I was very upset, since they are NEW PADS AND ROTORS that Mercedes should cover!!!! I hardly put a few thousand miles on them. Ridiculous!! So i call MB Customer Care and a case manager calls the service manager at Valencia Benz. He concludes that she was in the right cuz they "drive 70 miles with car and didnt hear anything". I was so fuming mad... I told him it was their idea to sit a technician with me and drive it, and he heard the noise while still in the lot. You can't argue with the fact. Regardless, I hear the noise alll day long, and the noise should get fixed since its coming from original MB parts. I was not treated well at this dealership and its not my only issue with them, just my latest. I have since decided to stay away from this horrible service dealership. They don't know how to treat clients. This is my 8th merceds, but the first mercedes I service in Valencia. Horrible experiences with my CLK500, I will return to servicing it in the valley. MB of Valencia won't make any more money from me!!!!! More
