Bad experience with Tony Oliva. For my $154k Audi R8 purchase Tony knew I was shipping the car to Honolulu with Matson in Oakland and he did not take me to the port, so I had to ride For my $154k Audi R8 purchase Tony knew I was shipping the car to Honolulu with Matson in Oakland and he did not take me to the port, so I had to ride with the transport truck and although we arrived 1 hour before the confirmed Matson closure time, they were closed so I had to drive the car from a very bad part of Oakland to your dealership and missed my flight out, had to stay overnight and fly out the next day.

Not particularly customer-friendly (a) the online reservation system offers a useless loop that prevents making a service appointment; (b) the srvice representative was polite but flood (a) the online reservation system offers a useless loop that prevents making a service appointment; (b) the srvice representative was polite but flooded me with details yet did not address the particular issues (tire rotation and wiper replacement) at check out that I requested at check-in, dismissing them with ”the technicians did not mention them as needing any change; (c) he came to the waiting area for me to settle the bill despite a subsequent delay of >20 min while the car was washed. In short, I am sure that the car service itself was “fine” although expensive but the several other area suggest the possibility of improving the customer-friendly orientation. More

Very efficient service Minimal wait time to drop off & pick up car. Complimentary Lyft ride to & from work was very convenient (instead of having a loaner car). The comp Minimal wait time to drop off & pick up car. Complimentary Lyft ride to & from work was very convenient (instead of having a loaner car). The complimentary car wash (“$$25 value”) was not very good: left many water spots & dirty spots were & wheels not cleaned. Should have not done it & car would have been in better looking condition.

Issues not solved I delivered my car for the 20k Miles service and explained that I have two other issues. In particular the issue that my iPhone does not connect to th I delivered my car for the 20k Miles service and explained that I have two other issues. In particular the issue that my iPhone does not connect to the Audi system is a problem for me. The Bluetooth works but the maps and applications from the phone will not appear on the Audi screen even if connected via cable. I run the newest SW on my phone and assume the system needs maybe an update I received the car back. At checkout the person seemed to be rushed and not interested in checking at all if the issue is now resolved. He just said ‘we did a reset of your electronics, that might have helped ‘and then disappeared. What about just asking if I could connect my phone so that we can verify if the problem is solved.? It is not solved! I can’t be the only Client with this issue. There is nothing special about my iPhone. It felt the service people just did not really care and wanted to have the client off their yard quickly. I had also another issue with the cover of the airbag at the overhead frame next to the wind screen. It deformed it seems and shown now a gap. I was told that this could not be fixed and a spare part has been ordered. It should be there in a few days. Nobody came back to me to give me an update or plan the repair. It’s just superficial and does not feel that anyone really cares. Duke who served me was by the way very friendly and did a good job in capturing my issues. He was gone however when I picked up my car. Regards Markus Ogurek (Audi Q7 - 2017) More
Couple of bad experiences in a row I bought my Q5 at this dealer in 2013 and I have been taking it for its yearly service and numerous recalls. For the last recall I took an appointment I bought my Q5 at this dealer in 2013 and I have been taking it for its yearly service and numerous recalls. For the last recall I took an appointment and when I came to drop the car I was told that the part was not in stock and they could not do it that day. That is fine but I would have appreciated a phone call or a text before as it was specified on the appointment why I was bringing the car. I decided to grab a coffee in the waiting area before leaving and when I came back my car was gone. Then for some reason nobody could find where it was. I walked myself the parking lot behind the service area to try to find it without success. Finally after 20 mn someone located it and brought it back. That was 1:30 wasted of my day before of incompetence and stupidity. They were also supposed to send me quote for the scratch repairs which I never received. This week I brought my Q5 for its yearly service (it only has 29Km) planning to buy a new Audi Care plan. Up to now it was serviced with the original Audi care plan that I bought at the same time as the car. To my dismay I was told my car is not eligible and I had to pay more than $1600 for the 35K service. I contacted Audi USA and they confirmed I was not eligible as I should have bought the Audi Care 6 months ago when the car was still eligible (there is a time limit from the purchase date). Well this is what I tried to do and was told to wait for the next service! If you want to get an Audi Care plan do it asap and do not believe anything the service person tells you as they will play any trick to extract more money for you. Time to find another place for service. More
Ahres was great We bought our Q7 on a rainy Saturday (January 5) and before driving it off the lot, discovered a small bit of chipped paint missing on the front bumpe We bought our Q7 on a rainy Saturday (January 5) and before driving it off the lot, discovered a small bit of chipped paint missing on the front bumper. We showed it to Michael Low’s sales partner – Paula, I think. Paula spoke with Michael and he assured us that we could return on Monday (January 7) and get that fixed. On that Monday, January 7 morning, Ahres called and asked if we could reschedule to the following Monday, January 14 because of the rain and how it'd be better for the paint touch-up with less moisture. So, that's what we did. If I could split hairs on this survey, I would give five stars to Ahres as well as Michael and then three stars to others. Michael made our purchasing experience simple and relatively stress-free. Ahres was attentive and also had excellent customer service. That said, the three stars would go to those who saw me this past Monday sort of standing and looking around the service area and didn't ask me if I'd been helped, even though I didn't remotely look as though I knew what I was doing or where I should go. Three stars would also go to the service guy who helped me in Ahres' absence (lunch break) and here’s why: To this substitute for Ahres, I explained how the driver side wiper was not working, leaving a sort of transparent residue, not exactly streaking, as we drove our new Q7 off the lot in the rain. (I tried to take a photo of it, but it’s not apparent in a photo.) When it quickly became clear that I might have to pay for wiper replacement, I asked why when the wiper wasn't working properly the day that we drove off the lot. In reply, this substitute then asked quickly, a bit pointedly, and slightly accusatorily, "Why didn't you turn around and come back right away?" I was caught off guard by the tone of that question. I explained that we had to be somewhere (not mentioning that we were already late), but to this substitute I did _not_ feel the need to detail how we had already been told that day of buying the Q7 to bring the vehicle back the Monday after our Saturday purchase...and that I was standing there on January 14 before this substitute a full week and a half later simply because I was *asked* to reschedule. The substitute then asked another service representative about this situation and who would cover the cost of the wiper replacement. That other service representative was only two desks away, probably overhearing the situation while helping another customer. It took him less than five seconds to declare that the replacement would be at no cost to me. Thumbs up to Michael Low and Ahres (with whom I later spoke about the whole thing). Sideway thumbs for the others. More
