Some bumps in service sometimes, but they make it right Edit 12/27/2016: Just had a really good, long conversation with the general manager... they followed up and made sure to meet and exceed my service ex Edit 12/27/2016: Just had a really good, long conversation with the general manager... they followed up and made sure to meet and exceed my service expectations. They admitted mistakes, ensured they were listening to customer feedback, and went above and beyond to make sure everything was set right. Everyone makes mistakes... and it seems they are great at correcting and learning from mistakes. If you have any service issues, be sure to contact management (general management... not just service management) if you feel anything is not properly resolved. Additionally, management knows that they are fighting with scheduling issues thanks to some technical / website glitches and are doing their best to put a plan in place to make sure schedules are set for proper service / attention to each customer. Great to hear they are aware of issues and are actively planning/executing to keep things running smoothly. I have spent many years with this dealership, and even though there are obviously bumps... they do go above and beyond to make it right. Previous (12/21/2016): I had service today, and it was really frustrating. I was quoted one price on the phone for brake service...approved the service... and then was called back a few hours later saying that service as done, but a new rotor service needed to be done also, costing much, much more. I couldn't decline the initial service anymore... it was already done. I would have preferred no service, as now I'm probably just going to buy a new car. But I don't get that option when you don't quote me the right service price the first time, apparently. I understand that some things are not common. And over the years, service for me has been pretty good here. But the last few service visits have been really frustrating for me... ranging from inconsistent communication about regular maintenance to bad scheduling (I booked my recent service online... and showed up today and was told I wasn't on the schedule...and do I really need the service today / ASAP?) to shifting prices.

Service waiting area was pretty full when I arrived but they got me out in about an hour. At 95K miles there are bound to be a lot of items that need servicing and they found many. No pressure to get anything extra done at this visit just a bunch of good information. Some thing's my son in law can do and some will have to wait on some $$$ to come in. More

Appalling treatment While getting an oil changed (11/15) on my 2013 Acura lease, I browsed through the lot looking at the new models of the same car. Like clockwork, a s While getting an oil changed (11/15) on my 2013 Acura lease, I browsed through the lot looking at the new models of the same car. Like clockwork, a sales representative (Genaro Nunez) came out to talk to me. He asked if i was planning on staying in an Acura (I was not). He then told me about an early trade in program. This was interesting to me, but after chatting a bit, I decided to walk away without turning in my lease early and walking out in a new car. From that moment on, I was bombarded by texts from sales representative asking what he had to do to get me in a new Acura. Finally, the day after Thanksgiving he messaged with a 'black Friday' deal that got me interested. I replied with a few requests since I wasn't completely sold on another Acura so I figured I'd ask for some extras to see how much he could work with me (waive overage miles/wear and tear fees/add additional miles to new car, etc) he said he'd do it. I replied again with so you can do all these things? He said yes! So that was it - come in - turn in old Acrua - get in new one and walk out. Sounds easy, right? Fast forward to 2 months later- everything is going along nicely and I start getting calls from Acura about all these trade in fees I never paid - fees for my old cars wear and tear, etc. Mind you, no one took a look at my old car when I turned it in - they said we're waiving all fees when I signed on the dotted line for the new car. Now that I've signed, they changed their minds and I ended up owing $2k on over mileage fees and excess wear and tear (I had a scratch on the bumper - not sure what else they found). I reached out to David McDavid - no one ever returned my calls - I stopped in and my name was taken but no one called. My boyfriend who was with me when negotiating the deal called (as he was witness to the whole thing) and IMMEDIATELY got a reply from Clifton Goldsmith. He apologizes, says he remembers me, and claims to get it all taken care of. Fast forward another month and a few calls/emails later and Clifton finds out they were unable to make those claims to me and apologizes and says I'll have to pay up. Since this is now February and I turned in my car in November - I no longer have my texts between myself and the sales rep. They know that I have to subpoena the texts - which costs money - so I end up just paying up and hoping this all goes away. In the end, though, Clifton Goldsmith and David McDavid handled this in a horrible manner. No apologies (after the first one promising to get the fees waived) - no follow up calls. More
VERY BAD New Car Sales Experience turned GREAT The following issue was resolved with a happy ending. Thank you McDavid Acura for responding and getting the vehicle sooner than expected.. I love m The following issue was resolved with a happy ending. Thank you McDavid Acura for responding and getting the vehicle sooner than expected.. I love my new car! ---Having owned three Acuras over the past 25 years, we have been very happy customers of the David McDavid service department for over 10 years. Our initial sales experience was wonderful. We decided to order a vehicle since they did not have what we wanted on the lot. Shortly after that, we became very disappointed. When we sat down to order, they asked for a $1000 check to order a car. They insisted they would just keep the check in our file as it was only to show we were serious. They promised to call us the following week to give us the approximate vehicle arrival date. They did not. The week after that, we called them insisting on being given a timeframe. At that point they said the car would not even be ordered for two more weeks and once ordered would take 10 to 12 weeks. We were astonished and asked about other options. After not hearing back for several days, we contacted them again and asked for our check back as they had not ordered the car and the timeframe was beyond reasonable (they never indicated such a long timeframe during the sales process). Their response was that they had cashed the check, despite the promise to hold it, and insisted that they would not return our money. They did offer to get us a car sooner if we paid them more money to have one shipped from another dealer. We have left three voicemails with the dealership General Manager. We are hoping he will return our call and remedy this situation. More

I highly recommend this dealership because they've simply been the ones that have given me a better deal when it comes to buying an Acura vehicle plus I like the professional environment of all their staff members. Their customer service is outstanding and it continues further on at their auto service department. More

The whole team takes ver I have been coming to the dealership from the last 4 years, and my service rep Luis is excellent whom i know for so long now. The whole team takes very good care of the car. They understand that I am very particular about my car, and how it drives, and they are equally consistent in doing an excellent job. To add, they also go an extra mile, for their customers, by doing a few extra things on the car, like even detailing it inside out, when you come to pick it up. I would recommend this dealership to everyone who needs car maintenance with excellent customer service. More

Quick Resourceful Assistance by Feliz Masaya Prior to coming in with my 2011 Acura TSX I made an appointment and described my problem with inability to connect my iPhone 6 Plus. Error message sa Prior to coming in with my 2011 Acura TSX I made an appointment and described my problem with inability to connect my iPhone 6 Plus. Error message saying no Bluetooth. I was told it could take an hour to repair. And this is a needed feature to be working while driving as it is the law in Texas to drive "hands free". Kudos to Felix Masaya who upon my arrival with a smile said let me see if I can get it working directly with your iPhone. He did and instead of an hour I was there for less than 15 min. Thank you.
