Will over charge you fees than agreed on! Beware when you sign your contract! This dealer will charge you extra fees more than you agreed on! When you call back to complaint, the manager Yahia Beware when you sign your contract! This dealer will charge you extra fees more than you agreed on! When you call back to complaint, the manager Yahia Zabdie will tell you to "HAVE A NICE DAY!" Once they have your money they are done with you! Agreed to pay $36 in Non Taxable fees and end up getting charged for $102.25 for fees ($66.25) over the fees I was suppose to pay. They will tell you the dealer is a big company and doesn't need the $66.25. Yeah sure multiply that number by a 100 customers. Remember one thing: there is no law saying that the buyer has to pay the smog fee or the electronic vehicle transfer fee! Both of them are NON-GOVERNMENTAL FEES! They told me to talk to DMV LOL!!!

Very Bad Customer Service I usually don't write a review. But I had to write this one because it was a really bad experience. I walked into the dealership wanting to test drive I usually don't write a review. But I had to write this one because it was a really bad experience. I walked into the dealership wanting to test drive the X4 M40i. After waiting for 5-10 mins, I was able to test drive the car, and I loved it. I was greeted by "Ivan Lo", who helped me on the pricing for the new X4. He showed me the BMW website, and told me that the current offers on the official BMW website is basically a lie. Haha. It's a way to attract customers to the dealership, but the price is usually more. He told me I will be paying around $700-$900 a month with a down payment for this car depending if I want to lease or buy. This is when the bad experience starts. I told him I did my research at home, and I showed him how I can "lease" a X4 M40i for $600 a month with $0 down payment, but I want it for $550. I showed him TrueCar price data, and he told me that's wrong. I kept wanting to explain to him my basic math on how I can get that number, but he kept rudely interrupting me while I was taking, and telling me my math is wrong. Finally I said politely, "please bear with me for few minutes while I explain how I get that number, and you can tell me if I'm wrong". Then finally, he decided to listen to me. Meanwhile, he was being very disrespectful, and he was shaking his head the whole time. I did the math on my phone with Out the Door price of $58k, with 0.0% APR to keep the math simple. After 60 months, the car is mine and I pay $967 a month. If I decide to sell the car after 5 years(60 months), I asked him how much do you think it will cost? He said "I don't know. Maybe 1/3 of the original price. Less than $20k." First of all, he didn't know the price on used cars or he's trying to be shady and lie to me. Second of all, in my opinion, that's really cheap for a used 5 year old BMW X4 M40i with 50k miles. I would get that instead of a new Toyota Corolla in a heart beat. Haha. But anyways, I told him that I did research on how much a 5 year old - 2012 X3 with 50k miles would cost. It's around $21k-$22k. But that's only a X3 base model. So I would imagine X4 M40i would a little more. So finally the math becomes $58k-$22k=$36k/60 months = $600/month, $0 down, no mileage limit for 5 year "lease". I said to him, "that's too much, and if it's $550, then we have a deal". But he didn't understand me or want to negotiate a deal with me. I got the feeling that he doesn't want to talk to me. So I decided to just leave, because even if they give it to me for $550, I don't think I want to lease a car there. This is actually my second bad experience with this dealership. They charged me $900 for a small window shield rock chip when I returned my 328i lease. Even though we had a good relationship with the fleet manager, George Zhou. He didn't do anything about it, and he just lost a customer. Oh well. I hope other people will get a better experience than me. But I gave it a second chance, but too bad it didn't work out. Too bad they don't understand customer experience is the most important. Not only they will lose me as a customer, after this review, they will lose even more. Go to nearby dealerships instead, don't waste your time here like I did. More

Poor communications My engine light went on so I wanted to make a service appointment. I called and the switch board sent me to the service department and I got voice ma My engine light went on so I wanted to make a service appointment. I called and the switch board sent me to the service department and I got voice mail and left a message and the recording said they would call back. Three hours latter I called the service department directly and got voice mail and left another message. I called back again and left a voice mail. The next day (Fri) I called and got the service department's voice mail so I dailed 0 and the operator said she would walk over and give them my message. She switched me to service and I made the appointment for 11:20 am the same day. The service rep-Brooke-said they would do the 25,000 check up at the same time and it would probably be ready today and she would call me. No call so I call at 4:50 and couldn't get anyone in service or Brooke. I called 3 times on Sat and kept getting the service voice mail so I dailed 0 at 4:50 pm and the person said that the service department closes at 4:00 on Sat. even through the recording on the 0 says they are open until 5:00 on Sat. On Sun I called service several times and got a recording and dailed 0 and he said service is closed on Sun and no one has the key to get my car. On Mon I called and got voice mail from service and Brooke. Ten minutes later service called and said my car was ready but they couldn't take care of the service light because the problem part is on back order but that the car was no problem. Now I have to bring it back again for the back order part. POOR, POOR COMMUNICATION. More
