67 Reviews of BMW of Tenafly - Service Center
Another horrible experience with Difeo. I went in to have my front brakes changes including rotors and they only changed the bad. The rotors were not changed as the rotor edges had the same "lip" as when I b my front brakes changes including rotors and they only changed the bad. The rotors were not changed as the rotor edges had the same "lip" as when I brought the car in. New rotors do not have any "lip" on the edges. More
I found that the service writers had lied about when the car would be finished and they never completed what needed to be done. Their response to phone calls was non existant. I would never return to this car would be finished and they never completed what needed to be done. Their response to phone calls was non existant. I would never return to this dealership, nor would I recommend them. Specifically the service dept. More

STAY AWAY from the service department; very incompetent (especially CF). I had brought my car in for a diagnosis of the service soon indicator only to receive the car back with the indicator reset I told t (especially CF). I had brought my car in for a diagnosis of the service soon indicator only to receive the car back with the indicator reset I told that was no problem only to see the service indicator light back on the next day. Besides all this hassle, they also dented my car which I did not notice until it was too late, of course. More
I brought my E46 325i to DiFeo, the dealership where I purchased the car, for routine service many times will poor results. Constant complaints about klunking and noise in the front end were met with "Co purchased the car, for routine service many times will poor results. Constant complaints about klunking and noise in the front end were met with "Could not duplicate." Stumbling idle, driveability, and CHECK ENGINE light issues could not be fixed despite constant complaints with every trip to the service department. The crappy HVAC system refused to respond to inputs despite two fixes. The last straw was a puddle of oil under my car after an oil change that was covered by the free maintenance plan. I was charged for an oil filter cap o-ring that the previous tech had managed to damage as well as labor to replace it. JMK fixed all the outstanding issues. Front control arms and bushings were spotted immediately by Difeo without any prompting from me. They also found the defective cam position sensors that caused the drivability problems and a faulty exterior air temp sensor that was screwing up the HVAC. DiFeo answered phone calls, returned messages, and gave me loaner cars but all that stuff is worthless if thay cannot fix the cars. Their service department represents everything that is wrong with BMW North America. More
I bought my car from here and had no problems since my salesperson was an idiot. Good thing for me since i got the car real cheap. I'm sure he isn't working there anymore. He sold me a car and then the salesperson was an idiot. Good thing for me since i got the car real cheap. I'm sure he isn't working there anymore. He sold me a car and then the manager who approved it noticed that there were two options on the car that he failed to charge me. Good for me right? Lets talk about service. I had problems with my electrical when I first got the car 2001 540i. Took them forever and Joe never called me back. It was always me who had to call him for a status on my car. He told me once yes pick it up in an hour, I will call you back to confirm the car is ready. 3 hours later and still no phone call and I was about to go up there and pick it up. It took me about 25 minutes to get up there. I did get in contact with him to tell me that the car isn't ready and won't be until the next day which pissed me off. Other than that I haven't really had a bad time there except for the last time when it took the service doofus 30 minutes to go retrieve my car. I was hoping it was stolen. Since it took so long, my service rep ran over and got the car washed. One thing nice about difeo is that they always wash the car. The cashier kept calling for them to pick up my car but no one ever did and so my service rep then ran and retrieved my car. I have never had a problem with loaner cars since i do go there early in the morning. As for the wait for a loaner car which is usually three weeks, I'm not suprised since my mercedes takes sometimes 6 weeks. They are much much much better than JMK BMW which i'm having a horrible time with right now. I only went to JMK since i moved further down south. I think a hour and 15 minute drive to get serviced at difeo is better than JMK any day. after being on this site xxxx all dealers seem to suck one way or another huh? More
