The sales experience was satisfactory with Cain, except for the unsatisfactory service provided regarding the due bill. While I do not have exceptionally high standards, I had anticipated that my car would More

Thank you for sharing your feedback, Omar. Tim and I spoke over the phone last week regarding the experience you both had. I understand your concerns regarding the body shop work and the communication issues you experienced. This oversight is not representative of the level of service we strive to provide, and I can assure you that I will address these issues internally to ensure they don't happen again. I hope I’ve shown our commitment to making this right by reimbursing you for your vehicle detail. We want to ensure your car looks as good as it should and that your experience with The Niello Company as a whole, improves moving forward. Again, thank you for bringing these concerns to our attention, and I hope we can restore your confidence in us. If there's anything else I can assist you with or if you have further questions, please don't hesitate to reach out. Alex Kludt, Sales Manager Niello Audi

Thank you for sharing your feedback, Ryan. We’re so glad to hear that Jackie provided excellent service and made your experience a positive one. We truly apologize for the oversight with the detailing of the vehicle. The car had just finished in the shop, and while we did our best to get it ready in the limited time we had, we understand that it wasn’t up to your expectations. We did offer to send it out for detailing, but since you were headed back to San Diego, we respected your time and compensated you for the inconvenience of having it done professionally at home. We certainly appreciate your understanding and hope that, despite this, your overall experience with Niello Audi was a good one. We will continue to work on improving our processes to ensure this doesn’t happen in the future. Safe travels and thanks again for your business. Thank you, Aaron Thetford, General Manager

Johnnie, thank you for sharing your feedback. I apologize for the inconvenience you’ve experienced with your vehicle's radio. With dealer demonstrators, certain conditions may apply that differ from new vehicle purchases regarding lemon law eligibility. However, after reviewing your concerns, we’d like to clarify that the radio issue was resolved with the most recent software update. We understand your frustration and want to assure you that we are committed to resolving concerns for all our customers. If the radio is still not operating correctly, please contact your service advisor and we will continue to explore solutions if needed. Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we look forward to helping you in the future. Thank you, Aaron Thetford, General Manager

After further review my Audi Q7 software continues to an issue. I contacted Neilo Audi today. There is still no fix for my software issue since April 2024. (Almost 9 months since MMI CONSOLE GREYED OUT. My radio issue has not been resolved with a Q7 with less than 1500 thousand miles on the Q7. No manager has even talk to me about the issue. I have been in contact with Audi headquarters. If any othe costumers have had a greyed out MMI CONSOLE please respond on this form . It has been very painful for 9 months dealing with the issue, after you take care of your vehicle. I will glady answer any questions about this software that can't be fixed. Johnnie 916-475-9121 No manager at Neilo Audi has contacted me. They just send me to service advisors. 1/2 star
