Awesome Experience Joseph was our sales man, and let me begin with saying he was awesome! My husband and I told him which car I wanted (2016 Golf R). I already knew ho Joseph was our sales man, and let me begin with saying he was awesome! My husband and I told him which car I wanted (2016 Golf R). I already knew how hard it was to find this car, and honestly he made everything smooth, fast, and even fun. Joseph was really friendly and knew a lot of information on the car ( I even researched so I knew what he was talking about). I cannot say anything bad about him. He didn't rush my husband and I (even though we were there until closing), we didn't feel any pressure. It was an overall GREAT experience!!! More
Best Dealership Experience! I purchased my 2016 Golf Sportwagen SEL in October 2015. Jon Nishimura was my salesperson. Jon made the whole car buying experience very smooth. Al I purchased my 2016 Golf Sportwagen SEL in October 2015. Jon Nishimura was my salesperson. Jon made the whole car buying experience very smooth. Although this was my first time at Tony Volkswagen, Jon and the rest of the crew made it feel like I've been doing business there for years. Jon was very knowledgeable and knew the Volkswagen product very well! He made sure I got the price I wanted and very little negotiating was needed. John Kawamura was the finance manager. He also was very efficient and made things hassle free. Total time at the dealer ship was about 3.5 hours start to finish and I was out in my new car! That was the quickest and most hassle free buying experiences at a car dealership I have ever experienced! At the time of purchase I purchased the Pro Pack paint and interior sealant. About a week later I got a call from Aaron Chan in service calling to schedule an appointment to have the Pro Pack applied to my vehicle. Aaron was very respectful and made sure I got the most convenient time to fit my schedule. For me, that time was on a Saturday and it was no problem making the appointment. Upon dropping off my car for my appointment, I was greeted by a couple of very friendly service agents. Aaron had all of the paper work ready to go and no time was wasted. Since I couldn't wait there for the vehicle, Aaron put me in a loaner until my vehicle was finished. When my vehicle was finished, Aaron gave me a courtesy call to let me know I could pick up at my earliest convenience. Not many service centers at dealerships have such great service as Tony Volkswagen! I also had a chance to speak with both Andrew Lee (General Sales Manager) and Gary Hu (Service Manager). They were both very sincere, friendly, and seem to put customer service at the top of the list! Tony Volkswagen has a great "family atmosphere", which make the whole car buying experience even more enjoyable! I would highly recommend Tony Volkswagen and the entire team as a great dealership!

Jetta..expect problems. Service department terrible communi I have a 2012 vw jetta..purchased brand new in July 2012. Already had to replace ac $1600 headlights and battery. It's currently at vw to have coil I have a 2012 vw jetta..purchased brand new in July 2012. Already had to replace ac $1600 headlights and battery. It's currently at vw to have coil pack and plugs replaced for $636. They say no guarantee this is the problem, but from past they have replaced and owners never had another issue. Communication with Tony VW, was horrible. One associate said one part was installed and they are waiting on the other, nobody ever mentioned they ordered parts then when I voiced my concern, they back peddled and said they never told me that...I guess I just made that up.

My Heart Felt Gratitude Sandra Motonaga 98-1810 #E Ka’ahumanu Street Pearl City, Hawaii 96782 January 22, 2016 To: Gary Hu, Service Manager and The Tony Volksw Sandra Motonaga 98-1810 #E Ka’ahumanu Street Pearl City, Hawaii 96782 January 22, 2016 To: Gary Hu, Service Manager and The Tony Volkswagen Team “It okay mama, Mr. Gary will help make car better”…..these were the exact words from my son, Gabriel. He was responding to my exacerbation, as we prepared to drive this morning to his program at Easter Seals. I was reacting to seeing an indicator warning light come on, as I turned on my car engine. My son’s message to me reminded me to humble myself and not get upset at my situation with my car. We returned to our house and I called the excellent customer service team and Jessica informed me that she could accommodate me right away. She provided me with an appointment time and also informed me, she would be able to accommodate me even if I arrived ahead of my scheduled appointment time. Upon my arrival, I was taken care of with two kind gentlemen that helped me park my car and once inside, Guy greeted me and did everything he could to assist me with my concerns regarding the anticipated cost of repairing my car. Once I was able to get my day settled, I also called Gary to let him know of my situation. I have learned in life “the answer will always be no, unless you take a chance and ask for help”. As with Jessica, the two valet gentlemen, Guy, Gary and the many unseen faces behind the scenes, I received my answer to my question for assistance with the anticipated cost of my repair. I do not expect favors, yet I will always ask for help and if it is not possible, I humbly understand and I am just as grateful for the outstanding service, respect and treatment I receive. The quality of service extends beyond just making a positive impression on me. It has ripple effects which make a positive impact on everything in my life. I also am pretty sure my care was washed and immaculately cared for! I also did not expect a Times gift certificate for a turkey or ham! My son Gabriel is 21 years old, a young man, with multiple medical diagnoses, developmentally disabled and functioning between a six year old and eight year old level. In his early years, he was nonverbal and occasionally would communicate with sign language, when he wanted to express his emotions. So to be able to have him verbally communicate and share such a powerful message with me is always a miracle! He recalls experiences that have made a remarkable difference in our lives. Today, my son recalled “Mr. Gary and the Tony Volkswagen Team”. (We have not been to Tony Volkswagen since last February 2015, almost a year ago.) I realize I have shared a letter of gratitude in the past; however, it just does not suffice to truly express how grateful I am for the “above and beyond” service I always receive from “Mr. Gary” (as Gabriel fondly called him by this name) and the entire Tony Volkswagen Team! You see….raising a son with multiple special needs is not an easy task….yet I would not trade my God given role for anything. I have been on an incredible journey raising Gabriel, yet he is my awesome tour guide. I have a dream and a goal for my son, Gabriel. I want him to find a place to be able to have a job someday and be able to exemplify the outstanding example of “service, respect and compassion” as set by the entire Tony Volkswagen Team. With Warmest Aloha and Mahalo, Sincerely, Sandra Motonaga More
Helpful and efficient My experience was very positive, and I have been very happy with my car purchase. I came in with a plan of test driving two used vehicles, and Dennis My experience was very positive, and I have been very happy with my car purchase. I came in with a plan of test driving two used vehicles, and Dennis had them ready for me. He was friendly, not at all pushy, and had very practical suggestions about what to look for when testing the cars. I ended up test driving a third, the car I'd eventually buy, and he was very efficient while making sure I'd be happy with that choice. He also kept in contact with me to make sure the car was working out and helped me to make sure all of my paperwork and service needs were taken care of. More
Tony VW Service Exceeded Expectations! I want to thank Damon D. (Service Advisor) for his excellent service on December 28, 2015.

I had previously used another dealership/repair shop and was less than satisfied with the service there and decided to try the service department at Tony VW for a fairly large service even though the dealership is a fair bit farther for me (another 15 - 20 minutes of driving). Damon set my expectations as to the time and cost of the service and was communicative throughout the service. The waiting area was clean and Damon let me know once my vehicle service was done. The total service charge was not greater than Damon's original estimate and I was even offered a car wash afterward as well! Every aspect of my service appointment at Tony VW was better than expected and I look forward to using Tony VW going forward. Sean B. More
Excellent Service I needed to come in for my 40000 mile maintenence on my Volkswagen Jetta TDI so I called up Tony Volkswagen. I schedule my appointment and unfortunate I needed to come in for my 40000 mile maintenence on my Volkswagen Jetta TDI so I called up Tony Volkswagen. I schedule my appointment and unfortunately my bank account decided to act up and I didn't have the funds for that day. Aaron Chanwas very understanding and bent over backwards to ensure that I would be rescheduled for a time that I wanted. He was on point calling me to remind me of my appointment and then called me a couple minutes before my cat was done. It's employees like him, who truly care about people, that are going to take volkswagen to the top in customer service. So far this has been the best experience with a dealership I've ever had. Hats off to Aaron and the rest of the Volkswagen Team. More
Always Satisfied From my initial phone call to make an appointment Gary Hu understood I had a limited time frame And he was able to accommodate me. Then upon arrival From my initial phone call to make an appointment Gary Hu understood I had a limited time frame And he was able to accommodate me. Then upon arrival Aaron Chan made sure all my needs were taken care of in a timely manner and kept me informed. Everyone there at Tony Volkswagen is friendly, efficient and professional! I've tried another dealer which was more convenient however I came back to Tony where I felt more confident and satisfied. Aloha and Mahalo for an excellent experience. Donna More
Exceptional Service We just purchased a home on Oahu and needed a reliable used SUV to drive. Began our search online, but ended up stopping by Tony Volkswagen in Waipahu We just purchased a home on Oahu and needed a reliable used SUV to drive. Began our search online, but ended up stopping by Tony Volkswagen in Waipahu after finding a couple of vehicles to test drive. I was greeted warmly by VW veteran Sales Consultant Jon Nishimura who is both knowledgeable and genuinely nice. He offered to let me test drive a vehicle without any pressure to buy unless it was the "right" vehicle for our family. How refreshing! One week later I returned to test drive another vehicle. Jon was leaving for the day, but offered to have his mentee, Dennis Paulino, assist me. The vehicle I'd seen online wasn't going to fit our needs, so I chose instead to test drive a 2008 Honda CR-V. Never have I driven or owned a Honda. Loved it! Dennis and I negotiated the deal and agreed I would pick up the vehicle the next day from Jon. Jon greeted us and offered to see if we could return our rental car to the Enterprise located within Tony Group Autoplex. They did and I now am one happy Honda owner!!! A few days later, I had a problem with my vehicle and called Jon. He immediately drove from Tony's VW to my location, jump started my car, had me follow him back to their service department and had a brand new battery installed while I waited (less than 15 minutes). The folks at Tony's VW ROCK! I highly recommend them for your next new or used car purchase or vehicle service. More
