11/14/24 was my worst experience and my dash camera revealed how unprofessional, unethical, and disrespectful the service department employees I encountered is. I have been a loyal customer to this location for 2.5 years. I trusted what my service advisor(SA) Damon told me as the upfront price and detailed diagnostics from technician. They charge $265 for labor per hour plus parts price. They add sales tax of 8.25% to price of parts. The SA has capability to provide complimentary extra add ons and discount like topping off gasoline or a signature detail hand wash. This visit my Mercedes-Benz S550 rt. ft. door lock was not working properly and SA said he would get diagnostic done. I was sent a video from tech that diagnostic was “lock not ok”. I sent SA details to rule out door actuator or any other reason because all doors would unlocked when I opened driver door and rt door would unlocked at random times. Door lock replaced by Jackson but I was still having issues with lock before I left service dept. SA said he would ask more experienced technicians Robbie and call me back. It never happened. Before picking up my S550 I text my SA to make sure door issues was resolved and that my car was hand washed and detailed properly. On 2 previous occasions my car floorboard was not vacuumed and my driver mat was wet. SA noticed this and I also reported to service director (SD) Jay on previous times. Both SA and Jay offered me a complimentary detail and said it would be done correct The First Time(now I have 2 detail add ons for next visits). On 11-14-24 I was told my S550 was hand washed by SA who confirmed from detail mgr Jose it was and car was inspected and ready to go. Upon my arrival I noticed carpet was wet and my mats were wet. My floorboards had trash on it, my console was damaged, my car was not hand washed as I was told. My dashcam show this and how product bottles were laying in my seat and tech sitting on top of them as he cleaned. Such disrespect for my car and lack of work ethic. SA text me they drop the ball AGAIN and he would explain everything to management team to make it right. Jay response is unprofessional, lack integrity, and lack of understanding of all details of employees work ethics. He said service detailing don’t do hand washing on a detail and that he would take off website and doesn’t care if I was told it hand wash. SA said my b service is $800 and jay said that was not the truth that it is $938.26. He stand behind Jackson(tech) who quoted price and approve of the diagnostic I was given as “lock not ok”. Because of of the price discrepancies and inconsistency in what Jay, tech, and Damon said it made me feel their lack of integrity and disrespect. I reviewed all my receipts from previous visit at this location and discovered hidden charges and over charges for labor and parts. My multi point inspection had inconsistent grading on tires and brakes. I received a call from GM Lance and he too was disrespectful to me dismissing and denying what SA and I discussed as accurate pricing. I have videos, text messages, and paid receipts as proof. Lance told me not to come back to dealership as his Resolution. I was not aware how deplorable, dishonest and unprofessional the service department is until I able to see on my dash camera,review details of my invoice and speak to Upper Management Jay and Lance. Beware of the service department and the specific people I dealt with in service department. Lance, I want a full refund of incomplete service $1045.69 as MY Resolve to this matter. Mercedes-Benz brand is excellent and I’m glad they have dash cameras installed options on 2024 vehicles. I did not get excellent service from the service department.

Dear Ms. Boyd, I appreciated the opportunity to speak with you recently and I am sorry that we were unable to reach a resolution that meets your needs. Sincerely, Lance Baker General Manager

Response to general manager: Thank you for taking the time to respond, but I’m disappointed that my concerns were not taken seriously or resolved. I approached your business in good faith, hoping for a solution to the issue I experienced. Unfortunately, your unwillingness to address it reflects poorly on the customer service and accountability I expect from a reputable business. I stand by my review and hope you’ll reconsider your approach to customer feedback in the future. I am escalating this matter to a Corporate Complaint and Regional Manager for honest and respectful resolution that represents Mercedes Benz brand “The Best or Nothing”.

Emily went beyond to make sure I was satisfied and even reached out to me on her off day. I actually didn't purchase yet, but when I'm ready, I'll definitely be back to purchase here More
