Buyer Beware - Stay Away@! - Unhappy Customet
This is my third Lexus and my LAST one that I will ever buy at Lexus of Birmingham - Sonic Automotive!! I had bought 3 other vehicles when it was Tom William's and it was a pleasant experience and i always recommended them to everyone but NEVER again! I purchased a used Lexus ES350 and the dash was messed up. AC not blowing cold and bad rotors .... was promised by salesman they would fix these things and the dash was under a recall so it would be replaced. We would've never purchased the car if these problems couldn't be fixed! Come to find out the recall was over a month earlier so they 'painted' over the big hole! They charged my AC 3 times and said it wasn't leaking and had no problem that they could find although drivers side blew hot and passenger was cooler. Nobody would ever return our calls from salesman, service dept/service manager or general manager! Five months later my AC is being repaired by someone else to the tune of 3000 dollars!!! Dash had to be removed to fix AC so at that time we found out dash was melted and had to be taken apart in pieces! Although Lexus had 3 egGaryxtra dashes at dealership for recall that would not even return our calls for us to buy one from them! Now to the rotors .... service department said they were fine and it must have happened after purchase!!!! Went elsewhere for all four brakes and rotors too for another grand! Needless to say my 'great deal' per salesman quickly turned into a horrible deal and nightmare! What a shame since I really LOVE the quality of a Lexus. Just say NO to Lexus of Birmingham and the new Mercedes dealership will probably have many new customers because they care and will treat you as a customer should be treated!!
