I had a great experience at Rosenthal Land Rover of Chantilly. My family has purchased from this dealership before, and every time it's the same story: Great service and personable treatment. Richard G Chantilly. My family has purchased from this dealership before, and every time it's the same story: Great service and personable treatment. Richard Greziak searched everywhere for the Range Rover Supercharged in black on black that I was looking for, and he kept me abreast of the situation as it unfolded. He really made buying my first car a much smoother experience than I would have imagined. I would highly recommend this dealership to anyone looking for great service and a friendly, personable staff. Many of the employees have been there since they opened. I know that as long as I remain in the area, Land Rover of Chantilly will be my location for any future car purchases. More

Yes, I would recommend this dealership. I just bought (May 2008) a used Volvo XC70 station wagon from Rosenthal Chantilly LR /Jag. I was given a very fair price (below the Edmunds TMV price) without muc (May 2008) a used Volvo XC70 station wagon from Rosenthal Chantilly LR /Jag. I was given a very fair price (below the Edmunds TMV price) without much haggling, a new set of tires, a full tank of gas in a detailed car, and was dealt with politely, respectfully, and without any of the normal "sales games" that you can read about at other dealers. Richard, the sales person, even got me the original Volvo service records for the car, prior to purchase. I was surprised, in particular, when Richard dropped $150 off of the price of the deal at closing, unbeknownest to me, simply to accommodate the certified check my bank sent, which was $150 less than the agreed upon "out the door" price, even though I was completely willing and expecting to write a check to cover the mistaken amount on the certified check. Paul, the finance / paperwork associate, was polite, competent, and thorough. I never once felt rushed, cheated, manipulated, or pressured. The only hitch in the deal is that the new tires as promised were not delivered in time to be put on the car prior to delivery, and we will have to return to the dealership next week when they come in, but in consideration of the over all deal, the ease of working with Richard, and the manner in which they treated me, by far, this is the very best car buying experience that I have ever had.

After months on debating on what brand of car would be our next vehicle, we finally decided to buy one from Chantilly Landrover. Initially we sent an e-mail requesting a test drive and price quotes. Richa our next vehicle, we finally decided to buy one from Chantilly Landrover. Initially we sent an e-mail requesting a test drive and price quotes. Richard Grzesiak e-mailed us back within minutes. The price we wre given was surprisingly BELOW what we had initially planned on spending for a 2008 Range Rover. Almost every detail was taken care of by Richard before we came to the dealership. He found the exact vehicle we wanted with exactly the options we preferred in the a very difficult to get color... all within our budgeted price. Richard handled most of everything over the phone with the help of his Sales Manager Kenny Roberts, and his Finance Manager Drake Cho, took care of all the details of the purchase including the lease with such ease. All that was left was to test drive the Range Rover. Once we arrived, Richard made us feel very good about our decision. The dealership looks brand new and Richard gave us the grand tour. The waiting area, the service drive in are and the showroom was very well appointed and friendly. Richard introduced us to the service advisor Clinton Starkie who came out to meet us and gave us his card. Richard then took us for a test drive over their Rock Driving Course, which is quite exciting. He explained to us about the Landrover Way philosophy and even invited us to a off road test drive event sponsered by the dealership. I would definitely and highly recommend Chantilly Landrover if you are looking for the best experience from a class sales and service staff! If we had known how great an experience buying from Richard and his companions was going to be, we would have gone there much sooner!! Thank you, The Johnsons - Arlington Virginia More

Avoid Chantilly LR/Jag at all costs. I bought a used car there last fall and had all sort of issues since. First, there were some issues w/ the car when I bought it that were supposed to be "taken care of. there last fall and had all sort of issues since. First, there were some issues w/ the car when I bought it that were supposed to be "taken care of." Two issues were, but only b/c of rapant persistence on my part, and for the others, I kept getting excuses that the paint person had the wrong paint, or was out, etc. Lesson for me - next time, I will not take delivery of the vehicle until everything is corrected. Also had to drop the car off twice to get inspected, the first time they didn't do anything! Second - and worse of all, is that the dealer engaged in fraudulent business practices. I bought a comprehensive warranty w/ the vehicle, and never got the paperwork for it. Months later, after the original factory warranty experice, I called and asked about my warranty. Finally, after calling and asking two more times, I got the paperwork in the mail. When it finally came time for me to use the warranty, I found out that it was only a powertrain warranty, and not the comprehensive warranty I had bought. Fortunately for me, they refunded the entire price of the warranty, but I had to call a dozen times, and finally go into the dealership to get the check issued. They would not change the warranty to comprehensive, as I asked, leaving me w/ no warranty and a car that has mechanical problems - the reason why I bought the warranty in my first place. I later found out from someone who worked at the dealership that the old finance manager, who had moved on, made the warranty switch a regular practice. I hope his doings catch up to him, wherever he is, and land him in jail in short order. I also had problems w/ the staff getting my vehicle registered, it took them well over a month to ge tthe paperwork to DMV, and when they did, they had it listed as the wrong vehicle and color. Overall, the absolute worst experience w/ a car dealer I have every had in my life. More

I am writing to describe our purchase and service experiences thisfar with Land Rover. As background, I am a foreign service officer who lives/works in Africa and have owned and driven several Landr experiences thisfar with Land Rover. As background, I am a foreign service officer who lives/works in Africa and have owned and driven several Landrovers in Africa. Regretably, we have had a horrible experience both with the Landrover in Albuquerque, NM and in Chantilly, Virginia. Not only are the services associates rude and unhelpful, but they have cost us money and time that is simply unacceptable. After buying our car in Chantilly, VA in August 2006, we found out that they did not have a second key as promised (we were only given one key), that they did not (and still have not) entered the extended warranty we paid for into the computer system and, to add insult to injury, the engine had to be replaced after 400 miles. and Chantilly did not have time for us so we had to take it to Rosenthal in Vienna, VA (who did a good job but they scratched the hood of the car while in the shop). We had to delay our move from Virginia to New mexico by two weeks and take leave from our jobs to wait for the engine to be put in (1 week after buying the "certified pre-owned car"). We called the service associate Richard Grzesiak dozens of times about the key and warranty and only once received a return call from him. His supervisor, Andy Levin, while somewhat better at returning our calls has not contacted us in weeks about our extended warranty. In Albuquerque when they reprogrammed the new key that we finally received from Chantilly after 3 months and over 15 calls to the associate Richard Grzesiak, they deprogrammed our old key and made us pay to program the new one. Now we have one key that is not cut but is programmed, and another that is cut but is not programmed, so we have to carry around two keys. When we complained to the service associate (who charged us for the programming) he said that we should just go to a key shop to have it cut, but most shops don't cut that kind of key and clearly we should not be the ones paying for this to be done as it was not our mistake. Overall, we have spent in excess of 15 hours dealing with Landrover, delayed our move from Virginia to New Mexico by weeks and made dozens of phone calls. We are absolutely disgusted with the service provided by landrover and the absolute lack of care or consideration given to us by landrover employees (however, to be fair, at Rosenthall one employee, Jack, stood out as the only person who appeared to care about the shoddy service we received.) We are looking to sell our Landrover and will never buy one again. Also, we plan to tell everyone we can about our experience. If it had been one error or one service associate we would have let it go, unfortunately, it has been in two locations with numerous employees. More

UPDATE, November 2006: I moved my vehicle from Rosenthal's service department to Curry's Auto Service in Chantilly. Curry's Auto Service in Chantilly ROCKS!! WOW, what a difference it makes wh Rosenthal's service department to Curry's Auto Service in Chantilly. Curry's Auto Service in Chantilly ROCKS!! WOW, what a difference it makes when dealing with a reputable company that makes it their policy to take care of their customers!! Curry's is clearly a company that the warranty companies trust to provide accurate, honest assessments of repair needs. Curry's is replacing my entire engine, down to the spark plugs and wiring, with a new engine. My cost: the $75 deductible required by the warranty company. Rosenthal demanded an additional $3,500 over the $5,000 authorized by the warranty company just to repair the the lower crank shaft bearings! Read my earlier posting to learn about Rosenthal in Chantilly, Virginia: October 2006: Rosenthal demands $3,500 more than authorized in repair costs ($5,000) – charges $600 to remove oil pan!! Rosenthal Chantilly kept my vehicle for three weeks (didn't even look at it for the first 1 1/2 weeks) in order to "diagnose" that the lower crank shaft bearings were bad. The service staff – Kevin Dooley and Jack Seaver – were entirely unprofessional, completely without scruples, and thoroughly alienated the warranty company and the customer. The warranty company authorized approximately $5,000 to repair the lower crank shaft bearings. Rosenthal's service rep, Kevin Dooley, informed me that they would require an additional $3,500 to perform the repairs. I asked him for a reason for the huge discrepancy in cost – he stated the hours the warranty company authorized did not cover the hours it takes Rosenthal to accomplish the repairs. I asked him for the source he used (Mitchell's, Land Rover Warranty, shop book, etc.) for calculating the hours so that I could talk with the warranty company to try to understand the problem. Kevin told me his shop set their own rates and hours and did not follow any standard. Once I heard from Kevin that Rosenthal charges whatever they want for repairs, I contacted Rosenthal's Service Manager – Jack Seaver – to confirm what Kevin told me. He said Rosenthal sets its own rates and hours and does not provide that infomation to customers. I told him Rosenthal's policy was unacceptable and that I would immediately send over a tow truck (Friday morning, October 27) to tow my vehicle to another repair shop and asked if there were any outstanding items which would prevent me from doing so. Jack assured me that the vehicle would be ready in one hour since I had already paid for the "work" they had done. Rosenthal charged me five hours ($600.00) for their "diagnosis". No surprise – they refused to release the vehicle to the tow truck driver. Here it is Monday morning, October 30. I just spoke with the General Manager of Rosenthal – Andy Lavin. Andy told me he was sorry to hear I was experiencing so many problems and that there was no reason for them not to release the vehicle on Friday. He said I could send the driver back over this morning to pick up the vehicle and he would make sure there were no problems this time. Andy was very pleasant, though, he did not offer reimbursement for Friday's tow truck costs. More importantly, he did not address the $3,500 discrepancy in repair costs; however, I did learn that the service staff works on commission, so there is definitely incentive for their dealings. Luckily, I experienced this problem while I was in the process of purchasing a new RangeRover to replace this vehicle, a 2003 LandRover Discovery. I instead purchased a 2007 VW Tourag V10 TDI. I'm sure the loss of one sale won't bring Rosenthal to their knees, but at least I won't be on my knees when dealing with their service department in the future. More
