I cannot stress enough how horrible service these folks offer. I will give 1 because there is no ZERO. I visit, chose a car, was told financing was better because they had incentives - wanted the same lowe More

This place provides bad service. My husband and I dropped off the car at 9:30 Am. They estimated it should be done in 1 and half hrs for oil change and maintenance. We waited until More

Thank you for your feedback, Abdul. After MPI, we informed you that someone else had previously over tightened them prior to you visiting us. We provided a quote to replace them all, which you declined so we fixed just the one stud that was accidentally broken, at no charge to you. We're sorry that you weren't completely satisfied with your experience. If you have questions, please feel free to give us a call at (512) 401-5975 to discuss. Thank you.

First of all, sorry to say but whomever told you that they "informed" me about my lug nut being to tight or if I was given a quote to replace them is all wrong, nor my lug nuts weren't too tight and neither I was given a quote. Secondly I saw you service technician Cody using a drill machine to tighten them, since when did Acura used drill machine to make sure the lugs were right correctly rather then using a torque ranch? Even the most cheapest places you go to get a tire rotation done would also use a torque ranch to make sure the lug are tightened to it spec! Ofcousre they had to replace it since the tech broke it Infront of me! It's not like they did it for a gesture of wasting my time. It was a good thing I went and saw what was the issue otherwise knowing your "star performer" Adrian he would've immediately labelled that broken nut as a prior damage during your MPI!

Jamie, we are disappointed to learn of your sentiment and we're sorry that we could not meet your expectations. There were additional repairs needed on your vehicle, and records show that when we requested to take care of them, you declined. Once we completed the original work that was approved, there was just a 5 minute delay picking up because our vendor had keys in make ready building. We were not aware that you weren't completely satisfied with your experience or tint work, however you do have a warranty on tint so if you'd like, you can bring it back in and we will take care of it. Feel free to give us a call at (512) 401-5975 to discuss. Thank you.

If you read the whole email like I said “I would have pay 500 not 1,800.” To get that part I need it because they already had half of it done and you guys wanted me to pay another 1800 on top of 4200 so total it’s almost $6000 that’s little to much for anyone. I had to wait little then 5 mins, And then one of your coworkers was treating my car like a race car. You don’t drive anybody’s car like that.

One star is generous for these xxxxxxx. One week ago we spent $3,000 for service on my daughter's 2018 MDX, was supposed to take a day and a half. Took 4 days. Today the car wouldn't start, 2 blocks fro More

Greetings Rob and thank you for sharing your concerns. When the vehicle was here 2 weeks ago, we tested the battery and it passed at that time. We value your daughter as a client and actually did everything we could to assist her when her vehicle wouldn’t start, including offering to cover the tow charge to bring the vehicle back to our dealership. Your daughter insisted that we come to her location to fix the vehicle, however this is a service we do no offer. She then informed us that she had a different tow service on the way and would go to a different location. I am happy to address her concerns personally and can be reached at 512-401-5974 if she’d like to give me a call. Thank you. Harold Parish, Service Manager

rob responded

Your call to her took place AN HOUR AND A HALF after her call to your dealership, by which time she had already arranged for a different tow, having been told that you couldn't help. Again, this is a disabled young lady with a 4 month old baby in the car. She had no indication that you would call her back, so she took care of it on her own. Your dealership's offer to help was far too late. Now you are just playing CYA. And she was only 2 blocks away. Shameful.

Spoke to Clifton Goldsmith he was the one that offered the Buick Enclave as a loaner. He told me he had never had anyone turn down a free car before. Even though I'm the one being inconvenienced by having to come back to the dealership to get something fixed that should have been done right the first time. Also spoke with Clifton about scratch in driver's side passenger window only to be told Acura wouldn't cover it even though I believe the detail crew did it removing the window sticker. This dealership doesn't know what customer service is. I will be getting my car serviced at Sterling Acura. Avoid David McDavid at all costs!!

Mark A responded

I can. But I’m afraid that you will do some damage to my vehicle, if I bring it to your shop again.. without me knowing it. You sounded so unethical in the previous conversations. So, even if you say now you will fix it, I don’t have the trust to give my vehicle to you.
