Wanted to lease a 2020 Jetta S. Already was in month 36 of a 36-month lease of a 2018 Jetta S initiated at this dealership 3 years ago. Worked with salesperson Christa De La Torre in 2018 who was excellent of a 36-month lease of a 2018 Jetta S initiated at this dealership 3 years ago. Worked with salesperson Christa De La Torre in 2018 who was excellent. Returning with a competitive lease offer in hand from a SF area dealer, all I wanted was for Southbay VW to match the deal. I was coming to the end of a Tier 1 lease and a perfect payment record with VW Credit. Had a HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE on Monday, January 4, 2021! Salesman, though pleasant, knew almost nothing and had no authority to make any deal. Instead he had me sitting at his desk while he ran back and forth to a nameless faceless Finance Manager who claimed my credit score was 40 points lower than the 719 it was on both TransUnion and Experian. In fact I had my up to the minute scores right on my iPhone as I sat there. This was the same baloney they tried to pull 3 years ago. Today’s salesman, though pleasant, knew very little and was a waste of time to deal with. Claimed to have been there 3 months, but didn’t even know they had a water fountain! Finance Manager apparently just planned to have me wait a long time in the hope that I’d tire and accept his sub par deal. Salesmen at this dealer should be replaced with pleasant 12 year olds since they have no authority and very little functionality. I needed neither selling nor demonstrating. Knew exactly the car I wanted. They had it in stock. I had a lease offer in hand from another dealer. It should have been easy. But somehow they managed to waste my time and make me dislike them in the process. What a sorry xxx lame outfit! They not only botched an easy slam dunk sale, they missed a chance to close a deal with an existing customer to create a repeat customer. These people are good examples of why most people hate visiting a dealership to buy or lease a new car. More

Service you can trust I highly recommend Southbay VW, specifically the service adviser Ricardo Sanchez. One thing that's hard to find in a service shop or dealership is hon I highly recommend Southbay VW, specifically the service adviser Ricardo Sanchez. One thing that's hard to find in a service shop or dealership is honesty, but with Ricardo honesty is his policy and he's build a reputation for integrity. I've been coming here for oil changes, repairs, and auto body repairs. Ricardo has been very attentive and does everything he can to help me out. I really appreciate that he makes sure to call or text me with the progress on my car. I will definitely bring my vehicle back to Ricardo at Southbay Volkswagen as long as he keeps working there. No question about that. Ricardo is extremely professional and knowledgeable. More
