Not 5 star! None actually. A complaint was submitted Not 5 star! None actually. A complaint was submitted today with California Bureau of Automotive Repair to report California State Law Emissions Co Not 5 star! None actually. A complaint was submitted today with California Bureau of Automotive Repair to report California State Law Emissions Control Warranty violations against SLO BMW. Subject vehicle: 2016 BMW X3 28d. (diesel). Vehicle Mileage is 68,000 miles. California Emissions Warranty - 7 years / 70,000 miles applies. My original Warranty Booklet that came with this vehicle specifically indicates that the failure of the "SCR Metering Module" is covered under the 70,000 mile emissions warranty. The Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) module is a critical emissions control component that injects Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) in the exhaust specifically for emissions control purposes. This is what prevents all diesel cars and trucks from blowing out black smoke. SLO BMW Service Dept diagnosed that the Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) injection line broke off at the SCR metering module and the metering module needed to be replaced. They quoted $750 to fix it and SLO BMW refused to accept that this is a warrantied part listed in my warranty booklet. I had to pay $199 (diagnostic ransom fee) to get my car back unrepaired. I contacted BMW of North America Customer Service and they also refused to honor their warranty. No explanations provided. Just plain NO. This is a clear violation of California Emissions Law. From the California Code of Regulations, Section 13, Division 3, Chapter 1 Article 6 section 2039 which states: "For 7 years or 70,000 miles (or a longer period of time or mileage, optional) (Whichever first occurs); If an emission-related part listed in this warranty booklet specially noted with coverage for 7 years or 70,000 miles is defective, the part will be repaired or replaced.

And the whole way through Having found my dream car on their lot, I was ready to make a decision and Kevin worked after hours to make it happen fast. And the whole way through made me feel amazing about my purchase and helped me make the best financial decision tailored to my needs. Having a sales person who treats you like a partner, builds your confidence and genuinely gets you excited makes the whole experience a great memory. Would do business here again in a heartbeat.

The BMW experience was ruined by BMW San Luis Obispo My wife and I are San Luis Obispo County locals and first-time car buyers, we trusted BMW San Luis Obispo for our first-time car purchase and we were My wife and I are San Luis Obispo County locals and first-time car buyers, we trusted BMW San Luis Obispo for our first-time car purchase and we were taken advantage. Our advice: 1.- Ask for the final price of the vehicle, including taxes and fees, and work yourself down. 2.- Don't fill up or sign any forms or provide any personal information until they reveal the real final price that includes taxes and fees. 3.- Review their website for the listed prices 4.- Save any price quote, for some reason their sales manager did not want us to keep the price quotes or compare them one to another. 5.- Be firm when you say NO, take all the information and review it a home with no pressure. 6.- If the sales manager or salesperson promises something, have them put it on the contract. 7.- Worst-case scenario, pay the $250 fee to return the car within 48 hours and get your money back when you signed the contract. The whole BMW experience was ruined by this dealership and its sales manager Jose Macias. We thought that investing for a car in our local BMW was the right thing to do, but instead they took advantage of the situation. In our case, Jose added a extra $2,000 warranty fee that it was clear to my wife and I that was waived and it didn't show on the final price quote. We realized we paid this extra warranty when we got home and reviewed the entire contract with time and no pressure. More

Worst maintenance experience ever, especially dealing with the managers. I will say that through this process, Johnie Medina at the service desk was nothing but professional. Great employee. Took my 2001 with the managers. I will say that through this process, Johnie Medina at the service desk was nothing but professional. Great employee. Took my 2001 330CI in for the passenger side airbag recall after they called me. The driver’s side had already been done by them, no issues. After the passenger side was done and they tried to sell me 4 new tires when not one was close to a wear marker, they gave me back the car with the airbag cover partially off. Then the airbag light came on intermittently after under 1k miles on a car with 98k that never had previous issues. They looked at it and said the passenger seat sensor was bad and charged me $290 for replacing it. Light came on again intermittently, so I took it in but since there were no active codes, the service manager said bring it back when it had a solid fault. I used my own code scanner after that and once it was popping 2 codes, I talked to the service manager Mario Torres again, but then he decided they didn’t want to work on it anymore and offered my $290 back. I said ok, but I’d like to speak to the general manager. After weeks of no response from Mario to my emails about the check, and no return calls when numerous people promised a call back, I finally get an angry call back from Mario then the general manager Vince Troncoso as if I’m disturbing him. We agree to meet the following Thursday, June 4th 2020. When I drive down to meet him, 45 minutes away, he’s not there and hasn’t been all day. I get different stories from different staff about why and no message left for me about the check, etc. so another employee has to track it down for me and leaves a message with him to call me back, again. After 3 weeks, no return call. Now I’m being forced to drive to over an hour away to another dealership to resolve the issue. I’ll be contacting their corporate office, hopefully they’ll be more receptive to customer service issues. More

Force your own positive experience I just purchased a 2017 X6 on June 21, 2020 for “almost” what I wanted. Although it did take me two weeks and 5 visits to the dealership. They had me I just purchased a 2017 X6 on June 21, 2020 for “almost” what I wanted. Although it did take me two weeks and 5 visits to the dealership. They had me walk away on the 4th visit but quickly reached out to me that same day. Although I forced my own process, it was somewhat pleasant when it was all said and done. The disappointment was that they gave me the car with no owners manual, no gas and the exterior was not cleaned with any detail in mind. Almost as if they are telling me that if I am buying a used car, then this is what you get lady! Poor customer satisfaction in my opinion. I will Have to spend more money to get the bumper touched up with black paint because they refused to touch up the white marks left there by someone who scraped it agains a pole or something. Nonetheless, the car is beautiful and I love it, but really only because I was willing to sacrifice all the little things. It is my belief that if my husband would have done this process with me, I may have had a less reluctant attitude from their staff, which is disappointing that as a female, I am treated differently by all male sales team.
