Replace oil pan only Valvoline Oil had stripped out the bolt on my oil pan, so they agreed to have Herb Chambers replace it. When I got my quote they told me that I neede Valvoline Oil had stripped out the bolt on my oil pan, so they agreed to have Herb Chambers replace it. When I got my quote they told me that I needed to replace the gaskets on the oil filter and engine also. Ever since I drove into the service department the only issue I had was with the oil pan bolt being stripped. Now I'm having issues with the front end and the 2 gaskets. I which I never went to Valvoline and also never went to Herb Chambers to have it repared, because now the vehicle runs like xxxx and before all this it was running perfect. More

It wasn't what I was expecting for a luxury car dealership. This was my first time purchasing a BMW which has been a dream car of mine for quite some time. I had high expectations when it came to the type of se This was my first time purchasing a BMW which has been a dream car of mine for quite some time. I had high expectations when it came to the type of service I was hoping to be provided with and unfortunately it was a big disappointment. I knew I wasn't going to be able to afford a new vehicle so I was weighing all my options for a used one. I did feel as though because I wasn't spending as much money as some other clients there that the attention to detail on the process of my purchase was a little neglected. I felt that there was a lot of miscommunication (some on my part), but mostly on the dealerships part. I had asked for my plates to be transferred so that I wouldn't have to re-register my car for certain parking permits that I had and it wasn't until I went to pick-up the car and drive it home that I noticed the new plates. It's a good thing I didn't take the Mass Pike that day because I would've been charged for the incorrect license plate number. Also, I was told by my insurance company that the dealership had sent over an incorrect form and therefore they assumed that I had picked up the vehicle that day, so they took my old vehicle off the insurance. Because I wasn't able to pick up the new car until that Saturday my old car that I was still driving was not insured for those 4 days. I didn't find out about this until my insurance contacted me to tell me they still needed a form from the dealership. The whole situation was truly a headache and to be honest it was unclear who's fault it was because when I asked both parties about why that happened, neither took responsibility and they blamed each other. Lastly,I had received an email from one of the managers (Giovanni) following up about my initial visit and I had called him back and left him a voice to call me because I wanted to speak with him about my experience and he never returned my phone call. Overall, it wasn't was I expecting. For the amount of money that people are spending I was expecting a much better experience. I love my new BMW and it's everything that I wanted and more, but for my next one I would probably consider going somewhere else. More

Very pleased with BMW technician William C. I trust the expertise of the techs who work on my BMW.

What needs to be repaired or replaced, what to watch for, etc. Keeping the car safe and well-serviced.is what BMW techs have done for me.. William C. was thorough and the odd car behaviors/noises that I'd noticed but not told James Gibbons about were picked up on by William C. and dealt with. The car drives beautifully now. No shudder when I step on the brake hard, and even the tiny 'fan whine' has vanished. So, from major issues to minor ones, William C. ferreted them all out and fixed all of them. He knows BMWs. James Gibbons was pleasant and professional and kept me informed on the car's service requirements, progress, and quotes for the work. (Disappointed the loaner requested when I made the appt was not available when I brought the car in for service Monday morning. James Gibbons called Wed . and said a loaner had become available. However, by then I had made other arrangements and cancelled appts.) More
do not waste your time with this dealership I have bought and leased 9 cars over the years but I have never seen such an unprofessional, rude and poorly organized dealership in my life, ever. I have bought and leased 9 cars over the years but I have never seen such an unprofessional, rude and poorly organized dealership in my life, ever. I leased a 2017 BMW and after 3 years I was expected to drop it off today. They called me literally 10 times to make sure that I set an appoinment with them to check out what they have in their inventory. I stated I was not interested in buying or leasing anytime soon but I could test drive one if it is ok. They set up a date/time for me to both drop off the current car and test one. I go to the dealership today and to my surprise they were not expecting me? They made us wait standing a good 20 minutes and some other sales person shows up. It can happen, maybe there was a misunderstanding right? The sales person takes us to his desk and asks me if I am leasing a new car with them today? I told him I own another car and I am not in a rush but like I mentioned to the lady over the phone I would like to test drive one. He mumbles something in the lines of like “Why did they take you to my desk?” and immediately leaves his desk. Like 10 minutes later he tells us to go with him and invites the “star of them all” Mr. Mark Lande. Mr. Mark Lande was rude since second one. The guy just “orders” me to wait standing while inspecting the car. No smile, no welcome gesture, nothing. Then he just goes to his desk and we follow him and suddenly he remembers to offer his chairs that are sitting idle around his desk. He does not talk, he just grunts and asks a couple questions to me with a very “rude” tone. Then comes the best part. He asks me if I want him to cancel the plates on the car and I said “Yes, please”. He then says “I don’t have to do this for you, you know that right?” ??? Then I ask him a question about the second key to make sure that he took note of that since on the lease pre inspection it shows as missing. The guy just starts yelling at me and tells me to check my mail. My partner and I look at each other in shock and after a few seconds I asked him why he was raising his voice? He starts yelling more and asks me “What is wrong with me?” and stands up and tellms to have a nice day. I guess once your lease is up you are not a customer anymore? Still even then nothing can justify Mark Lande’s behavior. It is plain rude and unprofessional. It looks like he needs some kind of anger management or professional help. In the meantime, I will make sure everyone stays away from this dealership and this guy. I will also make sure to follow up with his manager, and BMW North America so other folks don’t get the same treatment that I got. More
Zero stars if I could I brought my car for routine service and to fix the navigation and SOS. They had the car for two days. No one followed up with me and I had to call I brought my car for routine service and to fix the navigation and SOS. They had the car for two days. No one followed up with me and I had to call for the status. Was told the car was ready. Get there and the car wasn’t washed so had to wait for it only to get into the car and the SOS was still broken. Go inside and I’m told a part is needed from Germany. Probably should have communicated that to me. Get back into the car and the navigation is still broken. Car also says service is overdue and is telling me I need an oil change even though they had the car for 2 days!! Called the service center and I am told they will make an appointment for me the next Wednesday and provide a loaner. Called to change the appointment and there wasn’t an appointment scheduled and was told the car had lots of recalls! Emailed Herb Chambers to tell them I’m disappointed in the service and want a call from the manager. Get an email asking for my best contact number but no one bothered to call me. Sent another email that no one reached out. Never contacted. Provided an opportunity to remediate the issue before submitting my survey and this review. Made an appointment at Norwood BMW to fix my issues. Will never buy or get my car serviced at Herb Chambers again. Update: went to Norwood BMW! The car had 5 recalls and my service manager knew exactly what was causing the issues because it was a known issue with the new X5. Perfect professional service, loaner provided, great amenities.

It seems that your staff doesnt talk to each It does not seem that my needs are being met it seems that I have to fit into your program, After I have the vehicle for a week I get a call to br It does not seem that my needs are being met it seems that I have to fit into your program, After I have the vehicle for a week I get a call to bring the vehicle in for service. I'm done ;-( I placed a bicycle hitch on the X5 that I leased and I can not get any assistance on transferring this hitch to the X6. After being told that the hitch can be transferred. I return the vehicle in good condition and then you send me a bill for $1,000 I 'm done with Herb Chambers. More
