Dishonesty has a new name...its Clay Cooley Classic bait and switch. Here’s the my cautionary tale about dealing with Clay Cooley VW of Park Cities. Made an inquiry early in the week. The Classic bait and switch. Here’s the my cautionary tale about dealing with Clay Cooley VW of Park Cities. Made an inquiry early in the week. The person I spoke with said it was a “reasonable” offer and someone would follow up with me. Crickets. So I called back the next day and spoke to another person who again said that my offer was “reasonable.” And again, no follow up. Today a new person called me. I reiterated my offer. This new person again, using their stock phrase, said my offer was “reasonable.” She said she would take it to her manager and then get back to me. She called me back 15 minutes later and said they accepted my offer. Even though the process had been a little sloppy, at this point I had no reason to believe they were dishonest. But the first red flag was when I asked the sales person to text or email me the details and she didn’t. No worries, I left work early to go to the dealer to complete the transaction. When I arrived, second red flag was when I saw the car that I had agreed to buy sitting in the showroom and not prepped at all. So at this point I’m greeted by another new guy because the person I spoke to on the phone had left and the person she told me to ask for when I arrived was supposedly busy. Spoke to the new guy and I gave him the details, which I’m not sure why they didn’t have already. After some back and forth, the manager come out and says there must have been some sort of miscommunication because although I had been only discussing one particular vehicle the entire time with a higher level trim, the sales person was actually offering the base trim. The funny thing about this explanation was that if this was true then my offer would have been significantly higher than MSRP. But whatever, they had wasted way too much of my time. You would think they would have learned something from the VW emissions cheating scandal. But then again, maybe they did. Maybe they learned how to cheat their customers. Learn from me, try another dealer that actually respects their customers to deal with them honestly. I guess I know now why everyone says: “He’s the worst. He’s an xxx. Either way, stay away from Clay.” More
Penultimate Purchase Experience I found the 2012 Hyundai Sonata Blue online and spoke with Clint Hickman about the vehicle. Clint was very helpful, honest, and a pleasure to work wit I found the 2012 Hyundai Sonata Blue online and spoke with Clint Hickman about the vehicle. Clint was very helpful, honest, and a pleasure to work with. I went out for a test drive and liked the car. It was clean and in very good shape. Took the car to my mechanic and it check out with flying colors with an hour-long inspection. I worked with Clint, the Sales Manager Paul, and Finance Manager Jeff. I found everyone to be extremely professional and never once felt any hard sell. For me, this was a perfect buying experience and would highly recommend this group of professionals. More
Bad Service department. Took my car in for service under warranty, 1st time it was not fixed properly, and now have a new problem after picking it up from service.

Don't let Clay Cooley service department waste your time. The 2nd batter from Clay Cooley died on my 2012 Passat died this morning. I called Clay Cooley this morning about the dead battery and I was told it w The 2nd batter from Clay Cooley died on my 2012 Passat died this morning. I called Clay Cooley this morning about the dead battery and I was told it was still under warranty. I asked how much the cost of labor would be and I was told it would be free as the battery was under warranty. I drive to Clay Cooley and am told by Nick (Service Manager) the battery had a two year warranty, it is now pro rated, I do have to pay for instillation,I'm better off buying a new battery. They speak with the customer service representative (Pete) that lied to me, they admit he gave me wrong information, but they do not want my business and offer me nothing. I am told their batteries usually die in 3 years. My car has 33,000 miles on it. This is the 3rd batter in 5 years. I am not impressed by Clay Cooley's level of service. After speaking with another manager who did not care one iota, I left and went to a part store, bought a better battery for less, and had my battery installed for free. I bought my car from Clay Cooley, but today they lost me as a customer. More
Ignored I do not and will not ever recommend a Clay Cooley dealership. From buying the cc in 2017 till now I’ve had nothing but problems. With the financial p I do not and will not ever recommend a Clay Cooley dealership. From buying the cc in 2017 till now I’ve had nothing but problems. With the financial paperwork being handled to the warrantees I’ve purchased. Very disappointing service still waiting on my refund. Do not use Clay Cooley! More
Disappointing Service BEWARE OF Clay Cooley VW SERVICE DEPT Another reputable auto repair shop completed a thorough diagnostic test on my car and informed me that the prob BEWARE OF Clay Cooley VW SERVICE DEPT Another reputable auto repair shop completed a thorough diagnostic test on my car and informed me that the problem was related to an ABS module. They contacted VW and learned that there is an open recall on this module and suggested that I take my car to VW. I scheduled an appt. w/Clay Cooley VW the following day. In a nutshell, Peter the service rep operated with zero integrity and attempted to defraud me. I believe that Peter did this to justify the car not being ready and to buy more time. I immediately escalated to the service manager - John. Instead of John remaining neutral to fully understand "the customer" concern, he was defensive, deflected from Peter's detestable actions, and stated VW requires my authorization to proceed with the thorough diagnostic test that takes a couple of hours and cost $140 before they can perform the recall repair. When I called back 20 minutes later to tell them I'm picking up the car, Peter arrogantly informed me that I can pick up the car but they already performed the diagnostic test, something else is wrong with the car and the cost is over $3,000. They will charge me $140 diagnostic fee because they already performed the test. Note that after John's (service mgr) response, I reached out to another VW dealership to perform the recall repair. I called the other dealership back and informed them of Peter's last statements. Because of the other VW dealership intervention directly with Clay Cooley, when I picked up my car a hour later, John stated that it was "not possible" to perform the diagnostic test so they will not charge me $140. This is my first negative experience with any VW service dept. since I purchased my vehicle in 2010. I love my car and because of past excellent customer service with this dealership and nearby VWs, I purchased my teenager a used Jetta a few months ago. We will continue to be VW fans but will never return to Clay Cooley because of Peter and John's morally reprehensible conduct. I do appreciate the other VW dealership service dept. getting involved and will go to that dealership for future service and More
Horrible service On Saturday, I brought my VW Eos w/less than 50K miles in for basic maintenance and got a call that they found several major repairs needed totally $3 On Saturday, I brought my VW Eos w/less than 50K miles in for basic maintenance and got a call that they found several major repairs needed totally $3600. After my shock and horror, I was told it would be ready on Monday. I called Monday around 4:00 to see if it was ready. I was told it was still being worked on but it would be ready later. I asked for a time and was put on hold. A couple minutes later, the service rep said actually they didn't even have the parts for it and it would be Tuesday. So not only does my car w/less than 50K miles need major repairs (in addition to a $1500 water pump replacement earlier in the year), but I'm told my car would be ready until I pushed for a time and the service rep has no clue the actual status of my car and didn't think to call to keep me updated. I not only will never buy a VW again, I will never take my car back to this dealership. I'll be driving straight to the Honda dealer for a trade in. More

The car I bought had only 38000 miles I've had it for 3 months and had to take it to get worked on.. The warranty they sold us doesn't cover everything like the man said ..He told us is was bumper to bumper and thats was lie there is also a deductible on the warranty which he did not notify us of that. He said the car was pre owned certified which was a lie.. He told us that they work with BMW of Dallas and that is where they get their mini coopers from which is where I had to take my car to get fixed and I just found out that was a lie too.. It's going to cost over $6000 to get it fixed and the so called warranty will only cover $3000... About the third day after I had the car I called them and told them that the check engine light was on and they said that that's normal Mini Coopers do that sometimes it'll turn on and then it will turn off S since the third day that I got this car I've been having problems with it do not buy anything from these people..Itt will cost you more than you think..
