Baker Motor Company of Charleston (Mercedes-Benz Dealership)

DO NOT BUY from this dealer. Bought my car (GLS) in Jan 2020, three months later and still no registration. They never respond to call or emails. Even the Managers are the same way, so don't expect better 2020, three months later and still no registration. They never respond to call or emails. Even the Managers are the same way, so don't expect better from the employees. Beware the Baker group mgr. will threaten to sue you if you don't give a good review. STAY AWAY from this looser company. More

Horrible service from Mr Michael Wall in the financial Department. Bought my car in November of 2020. Now in March and my car still not registered. He never answer calls. You can not even contact him dire Department. Bought my car in November of 2020. Now in March and my car still not registered. He never answer calls. You can not even contact him directly. Always with the excuse that he is with another client. WHAT A NIGHTMARE. MR BAKER SHOULD LOOK INTO THIS AND STOP THIS GUY FROM AFFECTING HIS BUSINESS. More

Don’t expect a phone call back from these people. Called about a truck yesterday morning and I still haven’t heard back from anyone. I guess they don’t like to make sales! Called about a truck yesterday morning and I still haven’t heard back from anyone. I guess they don’t like to make sales! More

Called to schedule a service. Was told it was covered under warranty. I asked the amount of the service if I were to pay. Was quoted $775. Went in today and was told that it was not covered and it was no under warranty. I asked the amount of the service if I were to pay. Was quoted $775. Went in today and was told that it was not covered and it was now $1178. Worth the drive to Columbia. Service manager is a jerk. More

I made an offer in writing and orally that was accepted. When I received the paperwork they added a $699 documentation fee. They were also not happy I was not interested in the extended warranty. They would When I received the paperwork they added a $699 documentation fee. They were also not happy I was not interested in the extended warranty. They would not honor the deal they made orally. I asked the salesman to take pictures and a video as it was an out of town purchase. He told me he knew this car was perfect because was also the leasing agent on this car .He said the previous owner was an old guy who came in monthly for details. He said the previous owner was wealthy and his wife also drove an expensive AMG. The problem is this car's carfax said this car was from Wisconsin. The salesman just told me a long lie. I would not trust them to buy a Schwinn. More

Poor Follow Through - Inadequate performance After having my phone calls ignored and finally driving 45 minutes to get there, I found the service lacking. I have sold my Mercedes and simply need After having my phone calls ignored and finally driving 45 minutes to get there, I found the service lacking. I have sold my Mercedes and simply need a release of lien or a clean title. When the car was paid off I received nothing until I made calls requesting a release of lien. I got a letter, but not a release of lien that SC Hwy Dept would honor. When I went to Baker to obtain a release of lien, the the title inquiry did not indicate the lien was satisfied. The financial manager promised that he would overnight the release of lien and here it is 5 days later and I have not received anything. This is sub-par service. I am 80 years old and don't need this run-around because of the inability of others to their job. If this situation is solved promptly and professionally, I may change my rate. But right now, I would never recommend doing business with these folks. Be blessed as you shop elsewhere. More

I had to give them a star so that I could write a review. They definitely should take customer service lessons from Mercedes Benz of Cincinnati. I will not purchase a car from them nor recommend them. I am They definitely should take customer service lessons from Mercedes Benz of Cincinnati.

2 New 2020 GLE’s in 3 Months Bought a new 2020 GLE, picked up the end of March. Drove about 5-6 weeks. The electrical system started shutting down. After car being in shop for a Bought a new 2020 GLE, picked up the end of March. Drove about 5-6 weeks. The electrical system started shutting down. After car being in shop for a week, we were finally told that ac condensate line was improperly installed. This caused the inside of vehicle to flood. After getting little to no communication from Baker and Mercedes we were told parts were on order but had no idea as to when they would arrive. Instead of pursuing the lemon law, we agreed to a new car that we picked up last week. New vehicle has 187 miles on it, and started shaking. Again, we are told they don’t know the cause, and again my paid for car is in the shop. From sales to service to management there is is little to no communication internally and externally. More
