BMW of Alexandria's service department was unfortunately one of the worst experiences I've had with BMW, which should live up to be the luxury brand that it markets itself to be. I dropped my car off on Fri one of the worst experiences I've had with BMW, which should live up to be the luxury brand that it markets itself to be. I dropped my car off on Friday to be seen for an iDrive system malfunction which ended up drowning the battery. I was promised a loaner, then upon arrival was told the loaner wasn't available and they refused to drive me back to my home as it was an extra 2 miles outside the radius of their shuttle. Upon being firm, they provided me with an "older loaner." I left my vehicle and did not hear back until Tuesday, upon reminding them to get back to me, at which point I received a video from the technician and a repair estimate totaling over $5,500. In the video, the technician contradicted himself and said that the repairs were not guaranteed to fix the issues. It was obvious that the technician and service managers did not listen to my issues. Furthermore, I was told that my engine mounts were completely blown out and had to be replaced at a cost of $3,500. I picked my car up immediately, and took it to BMW of Silver Spring. There, the issue was diagnosed immediately and fully covered under warranty. The technician there double checked the engine mounts and found them to be completely fine, as they only go out at around 100,000 miles (my car is at 55,000). I ended up only needing to replace my battery, as everything else was covered under my warranty, which BMW of Alexandria wanted to charge me thousands of dollars for. Their service department blatantly tried to rip me off for thousands of dollars, which is immoral and possibly illegal. This is not what should be expected from a BMW dealership and I recommend to avoid this place at all cost. More
Alexandria BMW provided excellent service today and every time I’ve used them over the past eleven years. The requested service was completed as well as a multi point inspection which is complementary. every time I’ve used them over the past eleven years.

Bella, my helpful service rep, gave me an estimate of cost and time to complete the requested maintenance items. More

Believe the negative reviews you see here wrt their service department. Terrible customer service; they actively look for ways not to honor their own promotions once they have you in the door; less tha service department. Terrible customer service; they actively look for ways not to honor their own promotions once they have you in the door; less than knowledgeable service reps who blame their inferior service on management with an “I just do what Im told”. Be wary of any ” recommended repairs or services here”. Finally took advice of several friends who switched to BMW Fairfax for service and the experience is night and day. They actually treat you like someone who has spent 6 figures on a vehicle and they have earned my trust! 2023 M850 owner More
