BMW of Asheville responded

We take all comments and posted reviews, positive or not positive, from our customers seriously, and as the General Manager, my efforts are always to find common ground with our customers and bring resolution to their concerns. Our records indicate that this customer was in our dealership in September of 2010, when we completed a front-only brake repair on his 545i BMW. We did complete the brake job for the agreed to figure over the phone, actually at a lesser $846, which did include a diagnostic fee for an intermittently inoperable Park Distance Alert complaint. The additional portion of the quote, up to the $1270 figure, included the repair of the Park Distance Sensor, which the customer opted to not have repaired. Again this was in September of 2010, and the 545i indicated at that time mileage of 56,105 miles. Since that time BMW of Asheville has not seen or serviced the 545i. I wish the customer would have contacted me in a more timely basis with his concern, and whether the sensor in question now was on the front brakes or more likely the rear brakes, which our records indicate we have not worked on or replaced. I would still be happy to chat with the customer about his concerns and service needs and his experience at BMW of Asheville. I can be contacted at sgordon@fieldsauto.com.

sramos responded

So, what you are saying it that I paid 1270 which I paid was for PDC repair which was not done. And the sensors were on all brakes, so again your service dept did not do their job do to incompetence or just trying to create more work so you could charge more??

Dec 04, 2012 -

sramos responded

Plus, I knew about the Parking Distance Control Sensor alert and I did not complain about it, And told your service personnel I did not want that corrected or repaired. So, why the charge for the diagnostics and you say that the 1270 was included the PDC repair which was not done at all. Again the Sensors were on all four brakes. In fact, the factory recall of the battery cable, I waited to get done this last week by BMW of Wilmington that I have known about for over a year. AND I REFUSE to get the problem solved by BMW of Asheville. Since, they like to create ghost charges and not repair vehicles correctly

Dec 07, 2012 -

BMW of Asheville responded

Sorry for the confusion here, but that is not what I was saying. BMW of Asheville did not charge you for, nor did you pay for, the repair of the sensor relating to the Park Distance Control issue. It was listed on the repair as not functioning correctly and we did diagnose the specific fault with the PDC sensor as to why it was operating intermittently. As directed to on the repair order, BMW of Asheville replaced the front brake rotors. There was concern about their condition listed on the repair order and the front rotors were found to be under spec and were replaced. The brake pads and the sensors relating to brake pad wear were not replaced, and there was no corresponding charge for their replacement. There was an additional charge to reset the oil change lite. BMW of Asheville did not change the oil; we only reset the light. This occurs when a customer may change their own oil, or someone other than an authorized BMW service center changes the oil. BMW dealers have the equipment necessary to reset this light, which we did at the customers’ request. The three comments on the repair order dated September 1, 2010 (over 2 years ago now) were these: 1) to examine the front brake rotors, which we did and found them to be under spec, and the customer authorized there replacement; 2) the issue around the intermittent operation of the PDC, which we did diagnose and the customer opted to not repair, and 3) to reset the oil service light, which we did. The total bill for all these things was $846.33. We did not replace brake pads, brake pad sensors, nor were we asked to do so, nor replace the PDC sensor. It would have been far better to entertain concerns at the time of repair. What we are being accused of now is a repair we did not do, nor were we asked to do.

Dec 07, 2012 -

sramos responded

Brake Sensors still should have been replaced. It does not allude to the fact that I quoted one price over the phone and charged $400 hundred more for a PDC reset that I knew was intermittent problem and your dealership would not take that charge off. And said I could have it applied within 60 days if I were to get the PDC fixed at BMW of Asheville. And I did not accuse you of a repair in my first rating, BUT it was a reply to your response that the charge & to be CLEAR : I will copy & Paste your RESPONSE: "The additional portion of the quote, up to the $1270 figure, included the repair of the Park Distance Sensor, which the customer opted to not have repaired." you WROTE Which I paid the 1200, which indicates in your response it was fixed. Just the reset. Really 400 hundred to push a reset button. I just won't the voice my opinion and not get into a you said/I said debate. All I know I left your dealership with my VEHICLE being held for RANSOM. Because I could not get the car until the bill was settled. And I waited this long because I was so pissed off that I would have done or said something in angry.
