Stay away from this dealership, service was horrible. - rajnichaudhari59

Stay away from this dealership, service was horrible. They said that you can bring your oil change coupon but after oil change did not take the coupon. I never asked for tire rotation but they did it and charged us extra money. Manager and staff were rude and aggresive, No one should use this dealership, we bought out Lexus from them but they did not care. I had worst experience of my life. These people should be fired, they did not want to communicate. service staff even did not want to connect me to someone who could help us. We were helpless, had to pay extra to get our car back after oil change. worst experience of our life !!!!!

This dealership is awful. My car’s paint was damaged by Lexus Santa Monica during a service. They were forced to repair it due to their negligence. They did a botched job! The area that was “repaired” is now corroding and the paint has come off. They will not take responsibility and fix their mistake. Really disappointed with the customer service, quality of maintenance, repair and service! It is not up to luxury car standards and an embarrassment to the Lexus name.

This is a review for the service department. - abesacto916

This is a review for the service department. In summer of 2024, I called the Service Department and spoke to Kenny, the Alfa Romeo Service Advisor. I advised that my front brakes and steering column aggressively shake under braking (2023 vehicle with 3,000 miles). Kenny advised this was normal and should not be concerned. Fast forward to September 2024. I scheduled a recall and oil change appointment for late November. I was advised the appointment would take 2-2.5 hours. I arrived at my scheduled time of 8:30 a.m. My vehicle was not taken into service until 11:15 a.m. My car was not ready until 1:45 – 2:00 p.m. This wait time was unacceptable considering I made an early morning appointment almost 3 months in advance. During the appointment, I advised Service Advisor Kenny of the brake issue. He stated the technician would take a look. I was informed that the front rotors had heat spots (Now with 5,300 miles on the odometer. Kenny stated he would submit a claim to Alfa Star the following week. After one week, I emailed Kenny. Kenny did not respond. I filed a complaint with Alfa Romeo of North America who had trouble getting int touch with Kenny. Come to find out, Kenny lied and did not submit the claim to Alfa Star because it was a normal wear and tear issue outside of warranty. I escalated the issue with the president and members of the Gill Auto Group leadership team. I was contacted by the manager of the service department. He stated that because the car was outside the 1-year warranty, the issue would not rectified. However, he failed to acknowledge that their own service advisor, Kenny, stated what I was experiencing was normal, which was during the warranty period. If Kenny had advised to bring in the vehicle, I would have done so within the one year warranty period. This is not a warranty issue, but an issue with Kenny providing false information over the phone that in this instance, is a serious safety concern. A competent leader would fix the root cause of the issue and not find an excuse to not fix it. I am dissatisfied with the dealer and would not recommend anyone getting their Alfa Romeo or Maserati serviced at this location. Because of Kenny's lack of knowledge about my brakes, the dealer should have done the right thing to have them replaced.
