Great service from Brad at Auburn VW Brad Shores provided EXCELLENT service in selling my wife and I a VW Sport Wagon.

His product knowledge, personality and ability to listen led us to a first VW purchase despite our original plan to buy another brand. Not only did we learn a ton about German engineering but we also benefitted from his ability to connect what car features we needed -- i.e .very good mileage, reliability, and that our family of 5 with soccer equipment and gear will comfortably fit. What began as a test drive of multiple cars led us to a really cool, well made, double moon-roof driving experience! More

I d Easiest process of purchasing a car that I've ever encounter. Almost the entire process was done online via emails. No hidden tricks, no pressure. I did my homework on both purchase price and trade in value. I told Rickey what I was looking for and for how much I was willing to pay and he found the vehicle for me that day. Within hours I was driving home in my new vehicle...and for hundred less than I had anticipated! I won't ever buy from anyone else! More

First of all, I fully agree with the other reviews that the experience to buy a new car at the VW Auburn is absolutely great. The big con is actually the service process, customer service team, the profile the experience to buy a new car at the VW Auburn is absolutely great. The big con is actually the service process, customer service team, the profile of service engineers and managers and the culture and mentality of this company. Here some details: I bought a VW Jetta in 2013 and was very happy for the first weeks. As mentioned before, the experience to buy a car there was great. After couple weeks I had noises in the car from a plastic part behind the cockpit. I called VW Auburn service and got prompt an appointment. After I received the car back (two days waiting time) I drove the car couple miles and recognized the same noise. I called again the service person Rod and explained that it seems the issue is still there. I scheduled a second appointment and this time a service engineer drove with me couple miles on the highway and confirmed the noise. Same again, I left the car there, two days later I toke the car back and surprise the same noise was happening immediately after I restarted the engine. This time I wasn't very happy and explained the service staff that the way from Issaquah to Auburn is quite far, so I would appreciate if we can fix that finally. What happened after was that I had anyway the first service appointment (first check up new car) after a month so the service manager promised that it would be fixed next time. Three weeks later I drove the car to VW Auburn and let the car there for two or three days. I received a call and the responsible service engineer mentioned that they had an accident with my car because another service engineer drove into my car and "don't worry" - we will just order two new doors and we fix that. Well, at this time I was very unhappy and contacted my lawyer. Unfortunately I received the information that if the VW dealer is able to fix the doors on their cost and the car is "like" new I would have a hard play to claim something from VW. After a waiting time of 3 weeks! I received the call and "Rod" the service engineer explained in a very unfriendly and unprofessional way that it is kind of difficult to get exactly the right door for the VW Jetta 2012 SE. I was very surprised as I would think this is a standard process and the doors should be very easy to order, paint and put back on the car. It toke in all another 2 to 3 weeks before I got the car back. On the day when I received the car back I had to argue with the service team that I would not pay the rental car that the company organized because it is not my failing that the team needed up to 6 weeks to repair their accident on my car. Almost 1.5 years later (2013) I received a letter that the company would offer me to purchase the car back and to offer a good deal for a new car. After some thoughts I felt that it would be maybe a risk to deal with VW Auburn again but I honestly thought they wouldn't mess it up a second time. I was very interested in the VW Jetta 2013 GLI plus some extras like a protective cover (folia) for the front of the car (value of 900 USD!). Here my experience: to purchase the car was again an exceptional great experience but troubles started when I went to VW Auburn to get my new car: 1. The protective cover wasn't put nicely on the car. The service team washed the car and water was collected under the protective folia. 2. The car wasn't clean - not vacuumed. I called the sales manager because it was close to 6 pm and the service team wasn't available anymore. The sales manager apologized and told me that it is absolutely no problem if I come back and the team will take care of the situation. Well, another time driving to VW Auburn. Couple days later I made the way to Auburn and unfortunately arrived a bit late. The appointment to take the rental car and to give my car to the service person was 5 pm. Unfortunately I arrived at 5.30 but had no waiting time to talk to the person behind the desk. Here the very unfriendly circumstance: The person just said "no, sorry, you are late and we will reschedule the appointment". I explained quite frustrated that I stuck in rush hour and that I only would like to get the rental car and leave my car here. The person was very unfriendly to me and just said: "No, I need more than 15 to 20 minutes for the paper work and I have dinner plans". After I heard that I was very frustrated and explained that I will escalate the situation to the management. After I communicated this I receive the rental car and left VW Auburn. Two days later I received my car back. The protective folia was on the car, everything was fine BUT! the very expensive sport rim was slightly damaged. I called the manager and explained that I think this happened because the service team seems to "do" this with purpose. The sales manager explained that he will talk to the team at the service and I will receive a repaired rim. next appointment is in 2 days and I only hope VW Auburn doesn't mess it up again. More
