Just after he introduce himself, this guy (jim) start to keep asking me whether I would like to buy a car "today" and just give me the MRSP price for that. I showed him the truecar price he told me it was nonsense and he can only give me something several (not even specify how many)hundred above invoice price. I told him that I could not make a decision today, he started to tell me "whatelse can I do for you except give you a price?" Later on I got a costco price at Autowest Acura dealer with 500 lower than invoice and with 2 years free service. --- at the first quote with them. Stay away from this dealer! More
Scheduling for service is a waste of time. I scheduled for routine service 3 days ago. When I went there this morning, more than 10 cars where is front of me to be signed in, yet only one man was process for routine service 3 days ago. When I went there this morning, more than 10 cars where is front of me to be signed in, yet only one man was processing them. Further, he was not friendly at all. I just left in frustration. We had service there in the past, but it was marginal at best. Reminded me of the military! I suggest going somewhere else for service. Note that not a single one of the other reviews for this dealership is positive as of the time of my writing. More
I had the horrible experience of visiting this dealership for a friend of mine... I am a proud owner of Acura and believe in the brand very much and hence was totally taken by surprise that something like th for a friend of mine... I am a proud owner of Acura and believe in the brand very much and hence was totally taken by surprise that something like this could come up at an Acura dealership! We made an appointment to test drive a 2008 model car and then dropped by the dealership to then wrap up the deal... When we reached the dealership for the appointment, the store had already been closed and the people at the store had NO clue of who set up the appointment and other details. We went thru the whole grind of churning all information one more time and luckily managed to get the car we wanted to test drive. Test drive went thru fine and then negotiated on the price and after a series of back and forth discussions, settled on a price and started with the paper work.... 45 minutes into the deal while we were under the impression that we are almost done, the manager drops by all of sudden and tells us that we CANNOT proceed with this deal because the price they quoted was actually NOT for the car that we drove... the price quote they had provided was for a 2006 model TL. At this point not only was i shocked to witness such a thing happen, i was also thrown off considering the attitude and guts of these guys working at pleasanton acura to do such a gruelling act on a customer after spending a good 2 hours working towards wrapping up a deal. At an age and time when businesses go the extra extra mile to win a customer, it took me quite some time to grasp the fact that i was here at a dealership that absolutely did not understand the importance or manner in which they should deal with a customer! Pros: Close to 580 highway No other Acura dealerships in pleasanton Cons: Absolutely NO Ethics in business practice Different employees will give u a different answer Information provided keeps changing every minute DO NOT stick to the commitments they make in the first place More
We have been trying to negotiate for a 2008 Acura based on a quoted price from cars.com: of 27,900 (additional information below) Once we started talking to the dealership they quoted 31,900 for the sa on a quoted price from cars.com: of 27,900 (additional information below) Once we started talking to the dealership they quoted 31,900 for the same car and said we would only be able to negotiate if we went in to talk to them in person and only after test driving the car. We have already explained that we live over 4 hours away, and we're just looking to purchase at this point. We have been e-mailed by now 5 different sales managers, financing managers, etc. although, after this last communication is it very obvious that they do not want our business. We have been in contact with over 5 Acura dealerships in the area and by far this was the most unprofessional and disappointing experience.

Calling in to get an appointment did not go smoothly. Called hourly from 8AM until 10 AM left two voicemails since there was not a live person available to take the call. Finally called a service rep Called hourly from 8AM until 10 AM left two voicemails since there was not a live person available to take the call. Finally called a service rep I knew from a previous service call, and was given a time that same day. Dropping the car off was smooth, they pointed out that my headlights needed buffing which was a service I didn't know existed. The original reason for the visit was a Check Engine Light. This all took place at 6PM on a Thursday. No word on the car at 4:45PM the following day so I called in. Everyone busy, but a live person said someone would call me back (original service rep was on holiday). Long story short, when the back up rep finally connected with me an hour later, it was obvious the car had not been touched. Called back in an hour said I had a leak in my tank fill funnel, car should be OK to drive, no discussion on price to make it right, she agreed to waive the diagnostic fee. I asked to have the headlights buffed out, said no problem, it would be done on Saturday. At 1:45 PM on Saturday, no word on when it would be ready, I called in. A receptionist said someone would call me back. No one called back, I called in again, got the same receptionist who apologized, put me on hold, and eventually came back and said it was ready. Came by to pick the car up, it's pouring down rain. Paid the cashier, while the service rep said she would have it brought around. Waited 20 minutes outside, no car. Hunted down the General Manager who was out, expressed my concern to the assistant mgr who gave me the GM's card and the service rep's card. Waited another 10 minutes, and then loudly demanded my keys. Keys were given to me, went out in the rain, found my car and left. Sent an email to the General Manager outlining my concern around seeing the Acura brand so maltreated. Sent it return receipt, know he got it, zero response. So long as you are willing to do your own legwork and push the car through their system, the actual mechanical work is probably OK. I expected something better on the customer support side though from an Acura facility like this one, which these folks were unable to provide. More

I live very close to the dealership. So when I was shopping 2007 MDX, I sent email asking for the quote. The reply came back one day later. The price in the quote was in the middle range. I told th shopping 2007 MDX, I sent email asking for the quote. The reply came back one day later. The price in the quote was in the middle range. I told the sales that I had better quotes, and indicated that I would buy from him if the price is right because I lived close by. He came back saying I needed to show him the better quote, and used pushy words like "buy today?". I attached one of the better quote and told him that the earliest time of buy is the weekend in the email. That was it, I wait three days without hearing from him until Friday that he sent email again saying he did not receive my email and was doing follow-up. I replied that I sent him email three days ago with attached better quote from another dealer. Two days llater, another guy from the same dealership sent me email asking me whether I was still shopping for the vehicle. I told him I have bought the vehicle from another dealer and the sales from your dealership is not responsive. That was the end of the story More

Great sales team, and in fact I sent my cousin 2 years later to purchase her TSX there as well. As for service, its was good, until about a year and a half ago when it went down the drain. First there is/was this asian woman there that was rude to say the least. All of a sudden they started to charge a document handling fee. Its small, but its on every invoice, like 2 bucks. So, when I asked what the charge was for, I was thrown the two dollars by the bi**h of the service advisor and was told that I should take the money if I was complaining about 2 bucks. Well you only imagine what I did, complained like there was no tomorrow, wrote even to corporate. they sugar coated the entire incident and made it seem like a mis-understanding. To make a long story short - never went back there, in fact I told everyone that I know (about 5) people to never return there again. Also a side note on that same visit I was quoted an ridiculous price of 500 dollars to "look" at some problem I was having with the gas pedal, did not do it. For your cheap and great service needs, I recommend a better place in San Ramon that only performs factory service. I won't mention the name, but im sure if you've shopped around, you know what im talking about. Beleive me, you won't be disapointed. After that incident, I never have gone back to the dealer, even though I was a long time customer (over 4 years). Its a shame, but they stuck it to themselves. Hope you think twice before going there. If you have to pay for something, (non warranty items) look on the later part of your invoice, and ask them what the document maintenance fee is for... They will be puzzled beleive me! More
