Service department doesn’t seem to want my business. I tried to contact the service department for two major issues I had in the last 6 months. I had an unusual vibration & suspected an X-drive or transm I tried to contact the service department for two major issues I had in the last 6 months. I had an unusual vibration & suspected an X-drive or transmission problem. Called dealership twice and asked to be transferred to service. First time I got no answer and left a detailed message. Several days later after no response, I tried again and this time left same details with woman who answered and requested a call back. Nothing. Spent $1500 with independent facility to have transmission serviced. Several weeks later, I again contacted dealership about all four tire replacement. I was considering going with staggered tire sizes and felt BMW technicians would be the best choice to do the job. Same result. Two calls, two messages, no return call. I ended up spending $900 with Laning Tire for 4 tires and alignment. Hard to understand why the local dealership would not even bother to return a call for what would have been profitable service business. Interestingly, during this same time period, I did receive a call from the sales department with some bogus story about my vehicle being in big demand as a trade in on a new BMW. My conclusion is that this dealership is only interested in selling new cars and the gouging that goes with warranty work. When the vehicle is off warranty, the service department knows that they are unable to compete with independent service providers. Will not bother with this dealership for service OR new vehicle.

Exceptional service provided by your service team My daughter and her best friend were in Bradenton on a girls week before college begins when yesterday morning the car would not start. After a few at My daughter and her best friend were in Bradenton on a girls week before college begins when yesterday morning the car would not start. After a few attempts to jump it with no luck I had the vehicle towed to your location. Initially I waited for a bit to get in contact with someone but when I did (Greg Jones) was not only sympathetic but also placed urgency on the situation. The girls were to be traveling back home today and of course were in question as to what next. Do we need a hotel is my dad coming to get us were all thoughts running through their minds. After some diagnostic time Greg called to inform me it was a bad key fob and asked if I had another. I was able to next day the key and once it arrived my car was not only reprogrammed for the key it was also updated to the newest software. With no request on my part Greg informed me the whole procedure would be no charge. As anyone in my shoes would feel the question of what is this going to cost was at the forefront of my mind behind the concern for the girls. Greg’s communication was spot on and his personality is great. I wish I lived near your facility but I live in Charleston SC. I would tell everyone about your organization.

High Quality Results One hears a lot about the quality of Lexus service, but I doubt they can match the service provided by BMW of Sarasota and Maria Lizardi. My expectat One hears a lot about the quality of Lexus service, but I doubt they can match the service provided by BMW of Sarasota and Maria Lizardi. My expectations are always met. Maria is the epitome of professionalism. Her communications skills and knowledge of the BMW cars and systems are far better than other BMW service advisors that I’ve dealt with over my many years of BMW ownership. And, almost like a bonus, she is extraordinarily charming. More

I was looking a I will be honest, i was hesitant to look at purchasing a car through a high value dealership. My experience couldn't have been better. I was looking at pre-owned, non certified cars, so wasn't expecting much, but Naycolle really made sure I was taken care of. I had some concerns and to my surprise, once Carlos Munoz got involved, i was in good hands. Always responsive and concerned for my needs. Thank you! More
