Sleezy salesmen. Don't care what you actually want but just about selling, which is not surprising. The guy kept pushing the Tiguan on me even though I said I wanted Don't care what you actually want but just about selling, which is not surprising. The guy kept pushing the Tiguan on me even though I said I wanted the Atlas and wasn't listening. He promised to get the lease payment as close as possible to my original one but the new payment was 500 more. I questioned it and they got it down a little but I saw other dealerships had way better prices. I shouldn't have to look elsewhere when I had a previous lease with Vanguard. More

They had a rare used find, which is the only reason I bought through them. Staffing and management leaves something to be desired, but luckily my sales rep was Reggie, who is a gem.

He was their redeeming quality, and I have a feeling I would have walked away had he not been assigned to my sale. Hardest working person there. More

Update from a Google review, as it won't let me edit my original review: I never did hear from Paul, the GM. He was conveniently out of town immediately upon asking me to contact him. Instead, I had to wor original review: I never did hear from Paul, the GM. He was conveniently out of town immediately upon asking me to contact him. Instead, I had to work with another manager, David. While they did agree to put a new tire on the vehicle and refund one of the (smallest) add-on warranties I did not agree to (we'll see if that ever hits my account), the entire back-and-forth experience was the most stressful I've ever dealt with. The vehicle was kept for an entire week just to replace a tire. When calling the dealership for an update, the phone was only answered maybe 10% of the time. When it was answered, the service department said they could not locate my information, and I needed to go through sales. Sales said I needed to go to service. Nobody knew what was going on. My only resort was to send a text to a shared text line and hope and wait for a reply from David, which sometimes took several hours. Once the new tire was finally put on, David told me I could come pick up the vehicle the next morning. I said no, I'll come by today (this was at about 4:00pm and the dealership is open until 6pm). David said they needed to take the car for an hour drive at 70mph to ensure the tire fixed the issue of pulling to the left when accelerating. I let him know I'm not comfortable with that, and why would they need to drive the car for that long? That's absurd. He agreed to let me pick up the car that evening. My main issues of being sold additional items were still not resolved, as he kept defaulting to "there's no microphone in the room with your salesman and I don't know what was discussed; I'm only going off of what's black and white on paper." Why would anyone go through the lengths I have just to make this up? The customer is always right. Apparently not for David and Vanguard Volkswagen. I would strongly urge anyone shopping here to absolutely refuse the Vanguard protection plan that is sold by the salespeople as a warranty, but management claims it is complimentary and to ensure the vehicles they sell are backed by them. Either way, this should not be a fee charged by any reputable dealership, especially when the customer refuses over a dozen times and is ultimately forced to pay for it. Additionally, the only add-on item I agreed to was GAP. Which was mentioned would be around $600. It ended up being $752 and theft insurance for an additional $859, which David stated is GAP plus. We never agreed to add this. Just standard GAP. More

Chris Smith did a great job keeping me informed. My car was ready at the agreed time. Shame VW of USA won't bring in the Passat Wagon for those of us who prefer a proper automobile.
