Extremely happy with my new GTI purchase, and the overall service that Langan VW provides. Bob was extremely easy to work with, and was not pushy at all. Everyone over there is extremely friendly, genuine, and cares about the customer more than a sale, or upsell. Bob personally took an extra hour to go over the car with me after everything was finalized, and even gave me a tour of the vintage cars in their mini-museum. The entire process from the minute I walked in to see the car, to my last signature was extremely simple. Steve was even able to find me financing that was lower than my bank's seemingly unbeatable rate. I will definitely be sticking with Langan for future vehicle purchases, and strongly recommend them to anyone who is in the hunt for a new car. More

5 stars across the board We cannot speak highly enough of Langan VW. With such a long commute, my beloved Tiguan wasn’t working for me, and Byram helped solidify our interest We cannot speak highly enough of Langan VW. With such a long commute, my beloved Tiguan wasn’t working for me, and Byram helped solidify our interest in a diesel vehicle for the gas mileage, and comfort and luxury of the Passat. He truly took the time to listen to our needs/wants and found us the best car for the best price with an unbeatable warranty. I got exactly what I wanted, at the exact price I wanted. The customer service was unlike any other institution, and we never felt a bit of pressure. Byram even went as far as saving a few very important things that I left in my trade-in and kept the items safe for nearly 2 months until I had time to return to the dealership to get them. We will never purchase a car anywhere else! More

Worst Dealer in The World The engine light of my tiguan was on. I got the code read at autoparts which showed the diagnosis code was P0299 related to the underboost of the tur The engine light of my tiguan was on. I got the code read at autoparts which showed the diagnosis code was P0299 related to the underboost of the turbocharger. On 06/13/2018, I decided to go the gene Langan VW since it seems this place has the good reputation, which may give me the confidence to solve the problem. The front desk, Marlon S George, was in charge of my case. When I left my car to the technician, it took about half hour (only half hour!!!, no any driving testing for the turbo underboost problem), and then I was told the whole turbocharger needed to be replaced. How can I believe the whole turbocharger is done and required to be replaced? I searched on the web before going to the dealer and found a lot of people encountered this same diagnosis code P0299. But, to solve the problem, they only replaced a tiny part of the turbocharger. As my car is out of warranty, the dealer quoted a price of $2126.04, in which the labor is 6.5 hours and $780, and part is $1346.04. I was definitely shocked!!! Some people on the vw forum shared their experience, saying you should call the vw of America to plead for the relief. So I told the dearship I would try to contact with the vw of American and asked if they knew the phone number I could use to contact with vw of America. They gave me the number:1800-222-8987 (a wrong number!! The correct one is: 1800-822-8987). As I thought this dealer was reliable, I told them I would come back to fix my car after some phone calls with vw of America. They charged me the diagnosis fee, but they promised me the diagnosis fee would be as my repair fee after I came back to fix my car. On 06/14/2018 and 06/15/2018, after I called the vw of America, they would like to cover the part, but I have to pay the labor. In order to know the average labor hours to replace turbocharger in Hartford area, I called several dealers. No place will take more than 6.5 hours, and Crowley VW even only takes 5 hours to finish this job. So I thought 6.5 hours labor would be reasonable. More importantly, the diagnosis fee could be refunded if I went to the gene VW for the repair as they promised me. On 06/19/2018, I decided to drop off my car on Tuesday so that they could have the whole day of Wednesday to replace the turbocharger. I arrived at there around 5pm and met with Marlon S George, and explained to him I was coming back to fix my car, and showed him the diagnosis fee they charged me several days ago. And he told me he would take care of that. The manager, Chris, came out and said the labor should be 7.3 hours because they gave the estimation of 7.3 hours labor to VW of America when the regional manager of VW of America contacted with them to confirm that VW of American would cover the turbocharger and I needed to pay the labor. How could the two times of quotes be different at the same dealer? The only explanation which can work is they tried their hard to rip me off and charge me more. After some argument, they agreed with the 6.5 hours labor. But when I asked for the loaner, they would not give the loaner. The simple reason Marlon S George told me was that my car was not bought there. What discrimination the dear has!!!! Anyway, this was not a big deal for me since my friend could give me a ride. The next day, 06/20/2018, when I was picking up may car at around 5:50pm because I should wait for the ride of my friend. I found the amount I would pay was not correct. they did not deduct the diagnosis fee from the amount unlike what they promised me before. I argued with Marlon S George. He told me they should have charged me 7.3 hours but right now only 6.5 hours. What the xxxx!!! We had the agreement of 6.5 hours before the repair. Right now, they told me the labor should 7.3 hours and would not refund the diagnosis fee after the repair. This guy had very bad attitude and even threw the paper documents of my car. What the xxxx!!! That was your problem, not the customer. He asked to talk this with service manager, but the manager was not there at that moment (left work before working hour). Because my home is far from the dealer and I do not want to give many troubles to my friend to give me the ride again, I paid the amount and picked up my car. Today, 06/21/2018, I called the service manager to discuss this issue. The attitude of the manager was very very bad, and said they should have charged me 7.3 hours labor, which was the estimation to the VW of America, and asked me to call VW of America. They would not refund the diagnosis fee. The manager rudely hung up my phone even if I was talking. VERY VERY RUDELY!!!!!! Then I called the customer service of VW of America to clarify the whole thing. The customer service told me the VW of America would only cover the part, turbocharger, and I should discuss the labor with the dealer. 7.3 hours labor is only the estimation given by the dealer when the regional manager of VW of America confirms the warranty to cover the part. In conclusion, there is nothing to do with VW of America. The dealer only wants to find some reasons to charge me more. Overall, Gene Langan Volkswagen always tries their snakiest and dirtiest ways to rip off the customers. Please open your eyes to see the truth!!! If there is a zero star, I will choose it, no doubt!!!! More

Best dealership experience [B]First Impression[B] - Gene Langan Volkswagen is exactly what a car dealer should be. They have competitive pricing, excellent FRIENDLY staff, and a [B]First Impression[B] - Gene Langan Volkswagen is exactly what a car dealer should be. They have competitive pricing, excellent FRIENDLY staff, and an amazing facility. I found my 2015 Tornado Red Golf TDI in December and called them up right away, Roger Saldi set me up to come down and see the car that week. It was a bit of a drive and we got there in the evening close to closing time but that didn’t matter. Roger greeted us and made us feel as comfortable as possible offering drinks, snacks, etc. We then went for a test drive and conversed about cars since we are both enthusiasts, Roger then took us to the museum/showroom so that we could see the car under bright lights to address any concerns. The car was flawless and we were extremely happy so we placed a deposit. We had to wait for the title to come in from VW which was ok since these are the last of the TDI’s being sold in the U.S. This part of the experience is the most important because I didn’t feel pressured or annoyed which is why people hate buying cars. [B]Delivery[B] – I took delivery of the car shortly after the title was received, this was an AMAZING experience. After signing for the car which was smooth, easy, and welcoming as usual. Roger took us back up to the museum/showroom which is where you take delivery of your new vehicle. Roger introduced us to the owner’s son who gave us a fresh local beverage from the tap! Then they teach you about the car you just purchase, being enthusiasts there wasn’t much to learn for us but it was still a new take on buying a car and was a great experience because I did learn a few things. After everything we finished up our beverages and enjoyed the amazing museum full of antique Volkswagens, Porsches, and Karmann Ghia’s. THE BEST PART – The smallest yet my favorite part was the fact that they filled the tank for my drive home. This is something dealers used to do, it’s sad because people spend so much money on cars what’s $30? The car was literally on empty when I saw it the first time, wow what a surprise, it’s the little things. [B]30 Day Review[B] – Our purchase was nothing short of spectacular, being a TDI that sat for a long time before being resold due to Diesel Gate we ran into a couple minor problems. I gave Gene Langan a call and they told me “We stand behind our cars, bring it down and we will take care of it”, that they did, without question, an amazing experience overall and I will recommend this dealer to anyone. Thanks for everything guys, hope you have a Porsche location because that’s next in my future. Cheers More

Everyone that I met seemed to love their jobs, and were truly working to give the customers a positive experience. They seem to want to make us a part of the business-not just a fleeting sale. The dealership showcases their pride in being part of the Volkswagen legacy of well-made, reliable, fun vehicles. This was my first vehicle purchase in 20 years. I was not familiar with new buying procedures. The Gene Langan staff answered every question and made me feel comfortable with such a large decision. The culture of the dealership led to my ultimate decision to purchase a vehicle from them. I look forward to a long relationship with Gene Langan and his very competent staff. More

Big Gene Langan fan I came to Gene Langan and they took care of me as they always do. Dan A. was terrific as we're the rest of the guys. I purchased a Jetta with a stick I came to Gene Langan and they took care of me as they always do. Dan A. was terrific as we're the rest of the guys. I purchased a Jetta with a stick shift. It has beautiful white seats and its color on the outside is a slightly reddish brown. The color shines differently in all kinds of lights. Sometimes I look at it and say, "Brown, how gross!" But other times, in sun for example, I say, "It looks almost copper. How cool." I leased a previous car from Dan A. This time I got to know him much better, and I found out he has a weakness for donuts. More
