Excellent Customer Service Rep.

I have met with Carolyn at 7:00 am on a Friday dropped off my car for service and rec'd a call at 8:00 pm the same day to check on "how the service " went! Even if I change to another Car Manufacturer I would try to stay with a Prestige Dealership as the people they employ go out of their way to ensure everything went smoothly. More

MINI needs employees like him. I'm so happy to have met and interacted with a guy like him that takes the time to listen and resolve my motoring issues with my JCW. I can guarantee anyone coming to him that their problems and issues will be resolved and handled! I love doing business with him. He's not only a service manager. He treats me like a family member. Pavel Pichardo (Appointment Coordinator) is also a new gem at Prestige MINI. He has been a great help as well. He is always attentive to needs I express to him, very friendly and knowledgeable about these cars. Mike Tornatore in the Finance depatment is true asset to Prestige MINI. Terry Glattman, i have known for years. He sold me my JCW in 2009. He's been a real family member ever since. I'm so happy to have met them. They get the job done right! More

Took a 2008 Mini to Ramsey to get checked out because I just bought the car from another dealer. Mini did a safety inspection for free and found $3300 dollars of repairs that needed to get done.

Brought my fiancé's car in on 12/19 for service and to have a buzzing noise rectified in the rear of the vehicle. Upon driving the car home I noticed the noise was still present. I brou service and to have a buzzing noise rectified in the rear of the vehicle. Upon driving the car home I noticed the noise was still present. I brought the car back the next day (12/20), and later that evening, I was told the car was ready. It wasn't until I got all the way to Ramsey that I was told the buzzing noise "couldn't be replicated," and their fix was to just buckle the rear seat belts. Keep in mind that this was after a test drive with the shop foreman where we both heard the noise. Why would you call someone to tell them their car is ready when it clearly wasn't? The noise was immediately heard the second I pulled onto Route 17. After hours of battling traffic and a completely wasted day, the problem still exists. My past experiences with Prestige Lexus and Prestige BMW should have kept me from entering another Prestige dealership, but we wanted to keep the car serviced where it was originally purchased. After the holiday, I'll be going to another Mini dealer to have competent people check this issue out. This dealership is absurd. ***UPDATE*** I took the Mini to another dealership and the issue was resolved with no static or attitude. Prestige really needs to reassess their service advisors. The unfriendly and cold attitude from Rick Torres didn't help matters that the service at this dealership is horrible. More
Even though I bought my MINI at a different dealership much closer to home, I decided to take my car to a bigger, more experienced dealership almost 100 miles away. My local dealership hadn't replied to much closer to home, I decided to take my car to a bigger, more experienced dealership almost 100 miles away. My local dealership hadn't replied to my emails or returned phone calls when trying to set up an appt for fixing the airbag warning light in my 2010 Justa Cooper. Prestige's online appt website made scheduling super easy and even send a couple of emails reminding me of the service date. Once I got to Prstige, a valet confirmed my appt and professionally gave me a receipt then calmly drove my car to the service area. Mike Christen then sat me down, reviewed the problem, explained the possible repairs and led me to the comfortable waiting area. Great internet BTW. In an hour the car was returned to me - no charge. The idiot light was out and Mike explained that they reset the computer. Halfway home the stupid light came on again. By the time I got home to my PC, Mike had already emailed me asking if things were ok. They weren't and he seemed really concerned that I still had the problem. He offered to get me back in the next day and would have his senior specialist work on it. When I was finally able to return a week later Mike was busy, but Carolyn checked me in. She checked Mike's notes and saw that he had scheduled a loaner for me. Carolyn told me that the whole airbag harness had to be replaced. That would take some time. They gave me a brand new 2012 for the next 24 hours and promised to reimburse me for gas. Returning the next day, I was once again treated courteously and professionally (although I kind of wish the sales people had spotted me enviously eyeing the new cars in the lot. They might have made a sale that very day!). No questions or hassle returning the loaner. My car was freshly washed, vacuumed and full of gas. And to top things off, an unknown employee asked my advice about what might be a welcome giveaway at the next Prestige promotion. When I recommended the MINI water bottles, he thanked me and handed me one for my "help". Very classy. More
My wife bought me a satellite radio for christmas. I contacted prestige to see if they could install it. They took the car and first were not sure where it could be appropriately installed. I then met contacted prestige to see if they could install it. They took the car and first were not sure where it could be appropriately installed. I then met with them and they installed it in an area that was inconvenient for me. I asked to bring it back to have it reinstalled and they welcomed this and had me sit down with the head technician in the service department who sat in the car with me and debated back and forth candidly for 20 minutes to figure out how best to install it. They did the job perfectly and I could not have been more pleased. Rick Torres expertly guided me through the process and was always accessible. More
Carolyn was a great help with meeting all of my needs. I was a walk in for service and she was able to get me in and out quickly. She was very considerate of my needs and spent a lot of time explaining to was a walk in for service and she was able to get me in and out quickly.

This morning's service appointment might have been the best overall service experience I've ever had. My salesperson Spiro Bogris met me just as arrived, found the service manager who promptly test drove best overall service experience I've ever had. My salesperson Spiro Bogris met me just as arrived, found the service manager who promptly test drove the car and confirmed the problem.I was out in 45 minutes--problem solved. This was an important service call. My daughter had just taken delivery of the car the night before and on the way home discovered a loud rattle. This impacted the excitement of having a new car. Morevoer, she needed to be back at work in Philadelphia this afternoon.If the rattle had not been fixed she would have had to wait a day or days to enjoy the car. It meant a lot to her to have her car back in perfect condition. When I got to the dealer, I was expecting potential hassles because car service departments are usually hassle-filled places. I had to be there early and I had no appointment. Instead I was really surprised--nearly amazed-- at the friendliness, responsiveness and skill of everyone involved. My firm impression is that this a top drawer dealer and service operation. Great job all around. More
