Second time I needed service, I always wait until the last moment, rush in and ask them to do service ASAP. They do, give me a loaner to run errands, then I get a call on my cell saying it's ready 2 hou last moment, rush in and ask them to do service ASAP. They do, give me a loaner to run errands, then I get a call on my cell saying it's ready 2 hours later! I've leased for almost 6 years now and have NEVER received anything less than the best service! For this, I'll drive BMW's from BMW Advantage Clear Lake always. More

This is my second BMW that I have owned and there are several short fallings compared to other vehicles in its class. The biggest and most import is the road noise. When I first purchased this car the several short fallings compared to other vehicles in its class. The biggest and most import is the road noise. When I first purchased this car the road noise was minimal, but after 15k miles the road noise became so bad that I could not conduct business calls while driving. I travel quite a bit and rental mid-class cars road noise was much less than the BMW. Second, is the options are overpriced. I spent an additional 12K on options that many other luxury cars have standard. From a service perspective the free maintenance is not so free. These cars sit low to the ground and if you knock your alignment out it will cost you 220 each time, and the dealership I used couldn't ever get it right. I do not think the service department actually performs the service requested. A lady in front of me had asked them to take the car for a drive to determine a problem she was experiencing at driving speed which the service department stated they did. She wrote down the mileage before she dropped it off and when she picked it up it was the exact same. Basically they had lied about even taking the car for a test drive. Additionally, from a technology perspective they are lacking and seem to be a couple years behind. Overall I would NOT recommend purchasing a BMW and I would recommend checking with the other luxury auto makers first. I have two years left on my lease and I have purchased another vehicle to use for my daily use and the BMW sits in the garage collecting dust. More

I had an unfortunate situation last week when I was ready to purchase a new 3-series and Lori Dominy had accepted my offer in writing. When I got to Texas from Arkansas, she changed the terms and would not to purchase a new 3-series and Lori Dominy had accepted my offer in writing. When I got to Texas from Arkansas, she changed the terms and would not guarantee her written expression of the acceptance of the terms. I will be contacting BMW and the dealership group's corporate offices in Houston to complain. I was out $600 on this failed trip. Beware of Advantage BMW's tactics. Go elsewhere and don't waste your time with a group of liars who cannot honor what they have put in writing. More

The Internet Sales Experience was Awesome! I did most of the process over emails, they were informative, honest, and very helpfull.

These people lie through their whitened, plastic teeth and it took me two BMWs and three years to discover this. I own a business and I am surprised these people are allowed to do their stuff. My advice and it took me two BMWs and three years to discover this. I own a business and I am surprised these people are allowed to do their stuff. My advice to you is to steer clear and go elsewhere unless you want to waste your time and invite hours of trouble and expense. Not credible in the least on several occasions. Avoid this dealership and their sister store and take your BMW elsewhere because I guarantee you you couldn't receive worse overall care. More

They don't seem to have their act together, each time I have gone in for service, it doesn't go smooth. On a very negative note, my engine overheated, due to all the coolant leaking out, and they do not wa have gone in for service, it doesn't go smooth. On a very negative note, my engine overheated, due to all the coolant leaking out, and they do not want to cover it under the warranty. They really did not care about the circumstances of the incident, just that it is their policy not to cover repair of the engine, if it overheats. In order to maintain the warranty, you would have to immediately shut the engine off, as soon as any hint of engine overheating or check coolant message was displayed. I called after the check coolant warning was displayed, I was told by service to bring it in when I wanted (I made an appointment for the next morning), that afternoon the check coolant warning came on again, and as I exited the freeway, the car died. I was informed the next day, that their was engine damage and it was my fault for driving the car while it was too hot......I am still at a loss for this one, as there was no indication, other than the warning message, which their own service technician was not concerned about.......

So far, a good experience in both sales and service. I would prefer a larger dealership as I often have to wait an extra day for parts to be shipped in but customer service makes up for the wait. would prefer a larger dealership as I often have to wait an extra day for parts to be shipped in but customer service makes up for the wait.
