AUDI BURLINGAME SERVICE WILL INVALIDATE NEW CAR WARRANTY - Douglas Gorny
BEWARE AUDI BURLINGAME SERVICE WILL INVALIDATE YOUR NEW CAR WARRANTY AND NOT TELL YOU WHY!!!!!
I took my RS5 in that sprung a water leak after only 3.5Kmi. I pointed out that the brakes had an overheating issue. After a supposed brake inspection (inspection report didn’t list half the issues) Mark Martinez said I was to talk directly to Audi as he didn’t want to discuss the issue with me. I contacted Audi who said they only want to discuss with Mark, and from that discussion they won’t honor the warranty on a $105K car with 3.5Kmi. Neither Mark nor Audi will tell me why the car is not covered, let alone provide how they came to such a determination. I asked about the status of the rest my 8 year extended warranty, and Mark indicated that it was whatever “he couldn’t prove was my fault” and that the water leak would be covered “this time”. Audi won’t reply to the warranty question and now I need to file with BBB Auto Line to start a case to get the status of my warranty. I have wasted countless hours of my time, and get no response no matter who I contact at Burlingame or Audi corporate. So buyer and servicer beware of losing your warranty on a new car based on the whims of the local service manager. I have never encountered such lack of customer care and respect with any of the new cars I have purchased over the last 25 years. I will never buy another Audi/VW product and I will stay very clear of any Rector Motor run business.
