Superior Service Kristina Williams is my service advisor and always provides unparalleled attention to all of my service needs. She represents what superior customer s Kristina Williams is my service advisor and always provides unparalleled attention to all of my service needs. She represents what superior customer service is meant to be. I would highly recommend this dealership for this reason. Buying a new car (which I would highly recommend doing from this dealership) is only a minor detail in the big picture. It's the service that the dealership provides after the sales that shows the integrity of the dealership. Kristina excels at this in every aspect. More

The car industry is a grimmy business and Tischer BMW is your typical dealership. Their service dept doesn't have a clue and can't stand by the quality of their repairs! If they can't fix your car's prob your typical dealership. Their service dept doesn't have a clue and can't stand by the quality of their repairs! If they can't fix your car's problem, don't be surprised if they blame it on you or condescendingly suggest that you don't know how to work the car. More

I drove all the way to this dealer because of the poor service I received from VOB BMW. And because of the highly acclaimed customer service of the Silver Spring BMW, I figured it was worth the drive. Un service I received from VOB BMW. And because of the highly acclaimed customer service of the Silver Spring BMW, I figured it was worth the drive. Unfortunately, I was proven wrong. I had a waiting time of 45 minutes and when my service advisor did come, there was no introduction, handshake, or small talk. The only remotely friendly people were the service receptionists. Hopefully they can just get the job done right. At least they have Wimbledon showing on the back TV... I also signed up for the appointment online and said that I would be waiting for my car but after talking to my service advisor, it sounded like I was doing a drop off. Let's see how long I'll be waiting. I hope I won't have to leave a complaint with corporate like I did with VOB BMW. This is looking kind of hopeless but I may have to find yet another service advisor or dealer... ---Update--- The above was written after I dropped off my car and was waiting for the service to be done. After spending about 2 hours in the dealership, I was approached by Ron Ptak. It was very fortunate that we bumped into each other because he changed my initial impressions and showed me what customer care is really like. Given my unique situation, all I wanted was the same respect and courtesy as any other BMW owner would receive. Without a doubt, Ron showed me just that. I had only wished every service advisor was like him. He took care of me and walked me through every step of the way as well as possible options at each step. Although he had some problems with his equipment that further delayed service, I completely understood and thought it was very reasonable because I felt so comfortable. Although my problem was not fixed due to the nature of the problem, I will definitely be returning to get my car serviced here after I figure out logistical issues. All in all, I highly recommend Ron Ptak and his service department. More

I did not have an appt for service but took a chance dropping by since I was in the area. Upon walking in, I was greeted by a friendly receptionist. She introduced me to an available service personnel dropping by since I was in the area. Upon walking in, I was greeted by a friendly receptionist. She introduced me to an available service personnel, Ms Pam Bryant, who can't be more helpful, she asked me if I would like to wait or prefer a loaner car while they servcie my car. It was fascinating to watch her put my key into this little device that tells her what my 328i needed exactly. I chose to wait and enjoyed the healthy snacks they had as well as spring water and freshly brewed by cup coffee. It didn't seem long at all as I walked around the showroom and engaged in light conversation with various sales people working. Next thing I know, Ms. Bryant came over to advise what was done, and that my BMW was being washed and will be pulled up for me shortly while I signed for my paperwork. The whole visit was smooth, fast, and efficient. I will definitely go out of my way to come here for my next service! Thank you Pam, and everyone at Silver Spring BMW, you guys rock! More

I had a very irritating issue with my Bluetooth. I have visited other BMW dealers (just moved to the DC area)and they never seem to take the time to help answer questions or set up all the goodies in my ca visited other BMW dealers (just moved to the DC area)and they never seem to take the time to help answer questions or set up all the goodies in my car. I stopped by Tischer unannounced at lunch time with somewhat of a chip on my shoulder. I truley expected to be pushed aside. Bryan, I believe he is the manager greeted me(WOW)he asked if I needed help. I told him I was having trouble with my bluetooth. He asked me for my keys and phone. He then said lets go, I will show you how to pair your phone. We spent a good 15 minutes in my car pairing the phone, setting up the navigation and radio stations. What makes this truley remarkable is no money exchanged hands. In a time when everyone asks what's in it for me, Bryan did not. I guess I found MY new BMW dealership. More

I took my CPO 325xi for the annual service and there was confusion on many levels. From both ends, and both parties somewhat responsible. I did have to talk a lot and be somewhat stubborn but Bryan was ab confusion on many levels. From both ends, and both parties somewhat responsible. I did have to talk a lot and be somewhat stubborn but Bryan was able to make the problem go away. Granted the blame is still looking for a home. But my car got serviced and hopefully I won't have to be back for a year. I bought a luxury car in order to receive luxury service, which I have gotten at the delearship where I purchased my vehicle. The bar was set high by my previous local dealership. I often told people that Tisher was the best around but often made you feel like a number and who really wants to be a number? But today after my 3rd visit I was a witness of the level of service that compares to the brand. I know they get a lot of volume at the Silver Spring dealership, and maybe my expectations are high. But, even though I got a little pushback today, I'm pleasently surprised that they listened to me and did something about it. More
