Great service experience. Brought my car in for an unplanned, emergency service event. They set me up with a loaner car and vehicle fixed the same day. Exceeded my expectations. More

We are going to MBOA for the 1st time tomorrow. We are new to Austin and new MB owners, so our experience will be unbiased. The customer service over the phone was really good, I think the name was Annie? More

Mercedes-Benz of Austin responded

This crafty review comes from our "Official" Internet stalker. We are currently researching our legal options to protect our Family Owned Local Business from malicious and false accusations from kids on the Internet. We maintain a A+ rating with the BBB and pride ourselves with honest business practices. We have refunded this customer $2970 for his extended warranty and associated fees were waived to him. Unfortunately, the second transmission failure was a direct result of the repair shop derner12 HAD do the work failing to do the job right the first time. Not every shop on the side of the road can work on 100k+ mileage Mercedes-Benz. Perhaps he should have gone to a repair shop that specialized in Mercedes-Benz vehicles. Here is where we were at October of last year: Prior to that and in months since then we have been repeatedly harassed by derner12. This vehicle suffered a transmission failure shortly after the customers purchased the vehicle from MBOA in January 2010. The vehicle had roughly 105,000 miles on it at the time of sale. The extended warranty that was sold with the vehicle refused to cover the transmission failure; stating pre-existing conditions. The vehicle was taken to an independent shop for the transmission failure initially, not to MBOA. In an effort to assist the customers, several phone calls were made between service and the independent shop and service emailed the independent shop a service information that outlines the possibility that a certain vendor’s radiator could fail and allow engine coolant to enter the transmission, thus causing failure. After some discussions between F&I, the young owner’s father and service the vehicle was towed to MBOA with the transmission apart and in the trunk. Service offered an aftermarket rebuilt transmission in an effort to reduce costs; this alternative was not satisfactory to the customers as they felt that MBOA should fix the transmission at no cost to themselves. I referred his request to MBOA sales/finance. The car was towed back out of MBOA with no repairs done. By the customer’s phone call to service on October 7 2010 and the notes below it seems obvious that the customers had it “fixed” to some degree somewhere else and now it has failed again. The customer’s recourse should be with the repairing shop’s workmanship, and not with MBOA. The decision to have an obviously unqualified repair shop do the work has compounded the customer’s frustration. The integrity of the independent repair facility is in question here; not the practices of MBOA. Proper analysis of the transmission fluid for glycol contamination would be the first step in determining if there is a radiator problem causing these failures. Without this analysis any attempts to continue transmission repairs is pointless as repeat failures will be inevitable. Service is well versed in repairing these types of failures. However, at this point, since this transmission has been apart by a facility of limited knowledge and/or ability, service would decline to attempt repair again as there is no telling what’s been done in the past to “fix” this transmission. Only a reman MBUSA transmission would be offered; as well as a good radiator if testing deems this as a failed unit.
