    Complaint Type:
    Service or Repair Issues
    Status:
    Answered
    11/23/2022 $1100.00 (plus) Baron BMW was supposed to service to my vehicle because I schedule an appointment. I needed an oil change. I also had a concern because my seatbelt light was on for no apparent reason. My dispute is that Baron kept my car for 2 days, did not provide a rental, and now my brake light is on. I was sent an inspection report about my car. I approved the concerns that were "needs immediate attention", which included the back brakes. After I approved the concerns, I was told I would be able to pick my car up in the morning. When I asked when I could pick my car up, the service advisor told me the brake light would not go off. He told me that the front brakes needed to be replaced too. I was confused because that were not listed as needing immediate attention. He stated the front would be about $800 more dollars. I would not approve the new request. He said I could come and get the vehicle but the brake light would be on. I stated that when I dropped off the vehicle the brake light was not on. Why is the brake light on now? He could not clearly explain why the light was now on or why I needed to pay an additional $800 to get the front. brakes fixed. Before paying I asked him did I receiving 10% off for bringing my car in the afternoon. He said he forgot to take it off. Next he told me he could not take the 10% off of everything because I had received a discount on my brakes. He did provide a partial discount. My final issue- I explained that I would be trading my car in in about a year, therefore I did not want to be in the oil change program. He said he had already enrolled me and that I would save money. It is not going to save me money if I am trading my car in.

    I scheduled an appointment to service my car and when I arrived there I was told they don’t have the time to service my car and that I can comeback on Monday I left the dealer and I’m thinking about what was the point of making this appointment

    Baron BMW Response

    01/22/2024

    Thank you for your review. We are sorry for any confusion that might have been caused. The online appointment you set for 4pm for an oil change, tire concerns and ABS diagnostic. We were more than welcome to take your appointment but the option of leaving your car was declined. It is not possible to do the diagnostics you requested in the time frame you set. I apologize for any inconvenience but nobody at Baron indicated all this work could be done in less than 2 hours. We were more than happy to keep your vehicle but due to the services you requested, the time the appointment was set and the time you stated you needed your car back couldn't all be accomplished. We could have addressed the oil change and possibly the tire concern but the ABS diagnostic takes considerably more time. Appointments times are to get a car checked into a shop, without knowing what is wrong with your vehicle (ABS concern) we cannot offer any promise times. We simply don't know the amount of work it is going to take until diagnosed. Thank you

    I’m not the technical expert here. You probably shouldn’t booked this appointment in the first place because I listed all I needed and since it was ahead of time you could’ve had a loaner car ready. Will never do business or recommend you to anyone
