Volkswagen of Kirkland

The wait time here to diagnose a simple issue is 3-4 days, during which you won't have a car or courtesy shuttle. Their service advisors (I worked with Kenneth) are not competent at estimating repair costs. I was charged a 240$ diagnosis fee to replace a 140$ OEM part, which the service advisor claimed initially cost 600$. As a result, I was out of a car for three days to learn that the part wasn't under warranty for a month-old vehicle. Buy your Volkswagen elsewhere -- cars need service and your time is too valuable to spend dealing with this dealership. More

Hi, giving one star for poor customer dealing. Before adding more details would like to thank Cynthia and Mike for good deal.

We were about to sign the papers and buy the car but Mike refused to give us 2nd key of car and told us that used car won’t come vth any warranty on miles or no of days. Once vehicle is signed and out of store they are not responsible for any issue. Why would you buy if you are not getting piece of mind after spending your money. Poor poor customer experience, Mike could have handled this well. We end up frustrated and did not buy the car from this store due to poor management. Thanks. More

The dealer somehow expect us to purchase the car on the spot, while knowing the car we are after was sold. All we committed that day was test drive the alternatives the dealer was recommending. When we sai spot, while knowing the car we are after was sold. All we committed that day was test drive the alternatives the dealer was recommending. When we said we’d like to keep looking the dealer seems disappointed. That is very bizarre behavior. No customers need to commit to buying any car on the spot. More

Classical approach to squeeze customers rather than building long term relationships and going after repeated visits. Too bad they are the only option in the Eastside after VW of Bellevue closed.

Unprofessional sales team. The sales rep Travis told me “What can you afford a hyundai” after I told him I wasn’t paying 600 a month for a Tiguan SE 4 motion. The sales rep Travis told me “What can you afford a hyundai” after I told him I wasn’t paying 600 a month for a Tiguan SE 4 motion. More

I have bought many cars and this dealership was one of the easiest buying process I’ve had, especially with challenged credit. This is one of the few purchases that I know they did not make any money on m the easiest buying process I’ve had, especially with challenged credit. This is one of the few purchases that I know they did not make any money on my trade vs independent dealers. Thank You!! More

DO NOT TAKE YOUR VEHICLE HERE. I get it might be convenient for some people location wise but I promise you, drive a little further. It will be worth it just to avoid this place.

They have had my TDI Touareg for 4 months doing warranty TDI work. They then "discovered" a coolant leak in an area that had to all be taken a part and put back together. They said it is not covered under warranty and it was like that before. They said that in the time there the tech noticed the coolant level drop. I have never seen my coolant levels drop nor noticed coolant left anywhere. How is it that I have never noticed it drop driving it every day, but then the levels drop and there is a leak after it was taken a part and put back together?? They stated that it will be 4k to fix. The GM then said he would "split the labor" with me. VW of America said this is a workmanship issue and needs to be handled with the dealer directly. Goes to show VW of America does not care about their customers and how their dealers treat people. I don't think this was a negligence issue. I think mistakes happen, plastic parts break, and we have to do our best to resolve them. The dealer saw this issue, put the car back together and contacted us when they would be able to charge us 13 hours of labor for something that was just a part and could have been an easy $70 fix. I wish I could say this was the first bad experience here, but sadly many people I know have nothing nice to say about Kirkland Volkswagen. Save your money. Drive to Issaquah, Everett or Seattle. I will say that the service manager Maribel did her best to assist me once she was involved and did so with kindness and respect, but stated her hands were tied and she couldn't do anything. The tech Marshall was also very helpful and respectful. My husband is a Porche mechanic and we understand things happen even to the most experienced, careful and knowledgeable mechanics. But we also understand that if he breaks something it is on him to fix it. We would expect the same working with another dealer. Months of frustration, lack of communication, and now this. 0/10 would recommend. More

We opted to do an early lease return on our Atlas Cross-Sport. We live 2 hours away from the dealership and up until that point I had spoken with Bob H. via email and phone only. We have had negative Cross-Sport. We live 2 hours away from the dealership and up until that point I had spoken with Bob H. via email and phone only. We have had negative experiences in the past with other dealerships so I was prepared for there to be some sort of miscommunication on the terms of the deal, or at the very least, be stuck at the dealership for a few hours doing paperwork. Let me tell you. Everything went seamless! We were in and out within 30 minutes. All paperwork was ready to go upon arrival. We shook hands and were on our way. If we are ever in the market for another Volksawagen I would not hesitate to drive right past our more local dealer and make the trip to VW of Kirkland. More
