In 2014 I leased a new Jeep Cherokee from Bayside. I was very pleased with everything including the service. I never paid for maintenance unless it was something out of the ordinary. This month I leased a new Jeep Grand Cherokee from them. What can I say...their commitment to helping people and keeping them satisfied blows my mind. Great job all round.

Disappointed that my dealership lied to me about an unnecessary service that was supposedly needed for my new 2016 Dodge Challenger. Charged me $250 for "fuel injector cleaning" the car doesn't even have 15,000 miles on it. Was misled in purchasing this service to help pad the dealership pockets.

Hello,
Our manager at the dealership, Bob Kennedy, tried to reach you and left a message. Can you please give him a call back to discuss the situation in your review. Thank you.
Absolutely the worst dealership ever! I wanted to give zero

To start I bought a CERTIFIED pre owned 2011 Jeep Wrangler unlimited. I wanted to purchase a certified pre owned from a dealership because I trusted that they would ensure quality in my purchase. I couldn't have been more wrong. The wrangler I purchased was leaking water so bad the jack was inoperable. I discovered that about 2 months after purchase. I went into the rear compartment and it was filled with water. Then my breaks started making a little noise I only heard twice. I took it in and found out I needed breaks and rotors. When I brought it in for the break noise I asked them to check on the leak. Afte 6 days! They finally gave me an answer. Neither the breaks nor the leak were covered under the additional extended warranty I purchased. The breaks were 600$ and the leak was a 50$ part but they were going to charge me 280$ labor. Again they took my jeep for 6 days and wouldn't take any of my calls nor would they return them. I had to actually go to the dealership several times in an attempt to get answers. This is by far the worst experience I've ever had with a dealership and I would recommend everyone refuse to purchase vehicles from them or take their vehicles there for service.

I feel like a V.I.P at Bayside Chrysler! Jay has been my Service Advisor for the last 5 years and always make sure that I'm taken care of. Matt, who sold me my car, always checks in when he sees me to see if everything is okay. And Elvis even remembers my name! We live in Malverne now, and there are service centers that are closer. But it's worth the trip to Bayside, because they are the best!

Deceiving Your Customers
Trust is a major factor for me and the trust factor has been proven untrustworthy. I brought my car to you to have a problem corrected with my airbag
Trust is a major factor for me and the trust factor has been proven untrustworthy. I brought my car to you to have a problem corrected with my airbag dashboard light staying on. My manual says if this happens I should take my car to a certified dealer, which is why I came to you. After the diagnostic was ran on my car, I was told that there was a "Plastic connector" under my passenger seat that was broken and it needed to be replaced. I was told it probably broke from someone sitting in the passenger seat. I was quoted approx, $375.00 for the part alone and a total price of $800.00 to repair this problem. This wasn't covered under warranty and I couldn't afford at the time to have it done.
Days later I decided to take my car to my personal mechanic. A retired head mechanic for Infinity and Nissan, who showed me that the connector Mr. Escobar informed about was NOT broken and was not the problem.
My car has been repaired and it only cost me $330.00 for the parts and labor. I would never come back to your dealership for service nor would I recommend your dealership to anyone for service or to purchase anything. "Honesty IS the best policy". I spent $218.00 to be swindled. You're supposed to be a public service. You exist because of the public. If we don't walk through your doors, you stop existing. So STOP deceiving and lying to your customers and try operating with some integrity.

I am FURIOUS! You have a LYING salesman, Bhav (unsure of spelling)! Upon returning my leased vehicle and leasing another, I told him that I didn't have my second key fob with me and that I would bring it the next day. He said "Don't worry about it". I also pointed out that the new leased Jeep was missing the cargo cover and he said "take that on" (from the car I returned. I kept the fob for two weeks, just in case, then threw it out. Now I received a bill from the Fusion Lease Company close to $2000. Some of the charges were for the bumper...okay, I get that. I spoke to Jay, manager, salesman and lease company. Bhav LIED and told Jay that he told me to bring the key the next day. I am a customer since the EIGHTIES, with my very first Jeep Cherokee! I will be there to "discuss" this with Jay and Bhav. Your salesperson should 1) Know that a key fob has to be returned. 2) Know that you can't switch out a missing item from on car to another and 3) NOT LIE TO HIS MANGER OR CUSTOMER!

Hello TC,
We understand your frustration. We would like to clarify somethings. You had spoken to the bank and they told you that those items must be returned to not be charged for them. Bhav had mentioned that on the day of the pick up it was not necessary to have the second key, but you needed to return it within five days so we can return the car with it. As for the other item, it was not missing, it just wasn’t included in the trim level for the car you purchased. We were under the impression that this was made clear to you and in light of this potential ambiguity we are using your review as an opportunity to further train sales staff to be “crystal clear” on all points.

Wow, even on this page more blatant LIES! Bhav did NOT say to bring the fob another day. I asked him THREE times if he was sure when he said "DON'T WORRY ABOUT THE KEY FOB". Why would I keep a key fob to a car I just turned in? I held onto it for two weeks, just in case. On week three I received the bill from Fusion. Why did nobody walk around the car returned and point out what I might be charged for? I had three months left on my lease and I would have had the bumpers taken care of for a fraction of the cost that Fusion is charging me. Bhav was in an obvious rush to go home...who wouldn't be after TEN hours trying to finish the lease process as a RETURNING lessee? He rolled his eyes and made expressions of disapproval each time I spoke with Jay, the sales manager. When I asked about the cargo cover, he told me to "take that one" (referring to the Trailhawk I was returning. Why on earth would you respond with more lies? Look at my review from March 2014 and compare. That review was positive! I am stating facts and Bayside Jeep has been nothing but dishonest in an attempt to protect its employee. The negative ratings all over this website speak for themselves. I will not the victim of a salesperson's lies. HE got his commission and no reason to care about the aftermath of his omissions, false statement and inaccurate instructions. Using my review to "further train staff to be crystal clear" does not help my situation on iota. I have spent countless hours on the phone with all parties involved. I am a loyal customer of Jeep since AMC was in existence and THIS is how I am treated? I wish I could just bring the new lease back and have NOTHING to do with Bayside Jeep.

Update. The sales manager Jay called me to tell me that Bayside is cutting me a check for the cargo cover and fob. I must commend Jay as he is the only one to seemed to understand my feelings of the pressure sale from the beginning. I will follow up once I have that check in hand. I was asked to take down my negative review, but that would defeat the purpose. People need to know what I have endured due to Bhav's false statements, so you all can make your own choice to patronize Bayside Jeep or not. My first lease experience was 5 stars in 2014 and this time, as last time, my facts show you why this review is negative.
Jan 31, 2017 -
TC responded
And more. Sales manager Jay promised a check would be cut to cover the cargo cover and fob. I called to see where the said check was and Jay wouldn't come to the phone. Sal, another manager I told I am not getting it, I am "extorting" Chrysler by telling the truth! this is ludicrous!
Jan 31, 2017 -
TC responded
I have updated as ongoings transpire, There is absolutely no attempt to resolve in my favor. I tired to give Sales manager Jay a positive update since he promised to send me the check, but I understand now, that was merely a bribe for me to remove this review. I have been nothing but honest and I am exercising my right to review based on fact. I was told again my sales manager Sal, that I will not receive a check.

Fusion Auto Finance was the ONLY sane voice in this horrific ordeal. Fusion dismissed the key fob and the cargo cover from the final bill. CHRYSLER HQ did absolutely nothing for customer satisfaction. They investigated and sided with their employees. It sickens me to be stuck with this vehicle for four years. A long time loyal customer is now waiting for her lease end in 4 years, to never be a patron of Bayside Jeep after THRITY years of owning/leasing Jeeps. Why I was charged a disposition fee when I leased another another vehicle is also beyond my comprehension.

"Also, regarding the front bumper scratches mentioned this would not be
an item that we would be able to cover under the manufacturer warranty
as the dealership informed us that it may have been customer caused".
MAY HAVE? Where's the proof, where are the pictures of the vehicle I returned, upon return?
What a disgusting feeling to be STUCK driving a vehicle for the next 4 years that I should be proud of. I was promised a check for $700. I will stop at nothing to get it. How does a sales manager.dealership call a customer an extortionist for telling the truth, dangle a carrot and then not follow through until I remove this review? THAT IS A BRIBE against my freedom of speech!
Feb 03, 2017 -
TC responded
My mistake, the check is supposed to be for $580, not $700.

And THIS is the typical response I get form Chrysler HQ; avoidance of the issues, and my reply:
Thank you for your response; we have contacted the dealership regarding
your request for documentation.
We were informed that the Monroney label was placed in the sun visor; we
also took the opportunity to order another Monroney label it should
arrive shortly.
Any further communication will be stored in our corporate records.
I appreciate your looking into this,but again,, another LIE from Bayside. I have been calling them for over a month regarding the Monroney label. I am past my limit of tolerance for their deceit. I have been speaking with Lisa (unsure of her title) and she told me she is going to order the label. This is absolutely despicable. The lies are to much for me to continue to listen to. You want to continue to support your employees, while the customer is still disatisfied to the point where I no longer even want to drive a Jeep after 30 years. Please tell me ho to terminate this lease with NO penalties due to this cruel treatment. This too will go on my reviews as I have received nothing but false statements. I want PROOF that the 2014 returned vehicle arrived at its destination after lease n the exact same condition as I left it on December 26th 2016. If THAT is not feasible then how do I know what constitutes "excess damage". You seem to want to dissuade me from my original plea. Enough is enough! Yes, please get me the Monroney label in the mean time. I have reviews to write and I will be opening a case in small claims court. 1)Monroney label 2) check for $580 3) the statement WITH MY SIGNATURE of damages the night I left my 2014 option 4) take this Jeep back with no penalties for terminating my lease early.
The staff is always friendly and welcoming to all.Make
you feel special.they go the extra length to assist whenever the need arise.Helping you when other dealers treat you as if you shut you vehicle down
