Attempt to "Upcharge" I bought a 2002 C240 in June, 2012. It had 64,500 on it. I immediayely took it to Van Housen (VH) MB/Sacramento to have the car checked out and repair I bought a 2002 C240 in June, 2012. It had 64,500 on it. I immediayely took it to Van Housen (VH) MB/Sacramento to have the car checked out and repaired as necessary. Since that time I have only taken my Benz to VH for repairs. I have asked on several occasions about the squealing brakes I have experienced. On those occasions, I have been told nothing could be done about them and that the brakes were fine. In response to the last survey I completed, Lisa Brown called about my continuing brakes' concern. Their "lead mechanic", Ken Harland, also called and we set another appointment for the brakes to be inspected. Ken said he would drive the car and, if necessary, complete the work himself. To my amazement, he aslo stated the work could not be guaranteed because the squealing brakes could be because of my driving habits! I told him I have been driving for 52 years and NOBODY has EVER told me THAT!! He also said he would replace the brakes, if necessary, without a labor cost. I arrived at VH Wednesday (01/27/2016) morning at about 7:25 for my 7:30 appointment. I didn't meet Ken Harland until about 8:15; I was told he was in a meeting, even though my OUR appointment time was 7:30 a.m.! We talked about "what" he said he would do and I agreed. Ken Harland came back from his driving inspection and said there was a squeal in the front brakes and that they were after market brakes. At no time since 2012, had any VH representative told me that. In Efrain Vasquez', my VH Service Advisor, office Ken Harland advised me that the repair would cost $328.49. I approved the repair. They advised me the repair would take be about 1 hour and I advised them I would wait. At NO time to that point, did Ken Harland advise me that he hadn't had the chance to check and hear the rear brakes squeal. Roughly an hour and a half later, I checked with Vasquez and he advised me that Ken had advised him that the rear brakes were squealing as well! I was frustrated and dismayed!! WHY wasn't I forewarned that THAT was a possibility? Ken told me he couldn't hear the rear because the front was too loud!! They told me it would cost another $328.00 to repair the rear! I was totally frustrated by these developments and paid the bill for the front brakes and asked that my car be readied to go. Since driving the car from the dealership, I have heard NO squeal, front or rear, my driving habits notwithstanding!! More

Our First Mecedes-Benz Experience On January 14, 2016, we had an amazing experience in purchasing a new GLC-300 Mercedes-Benz. We had been car shopping and stopped at the Mercedes-Ben On January 14, 2016, we had an amazing experience in purchasing a new GLC-300 Mercedes-Benz. We had been car shopping and stopped at the Mercedes-Benz of Sacramento. Brett Kellner met us and took the time to show us some different styles of Mercedes and took the time to make sure we had no reservations about purchasing a Mercedes and took time to answer our questions. We were not pressured at all, and went home that evening (Jan 13th) to think about what we wanted to do. We returned the following day and although Brett was helping another customer, the service was uninterrupted when Tony Biondi picked up where Brett left off and allowed us to go on a test drive and after the drive we were sold. The whole process was fantastic from Brett to Tony, to the finance manager Georgian Moldoveau. After we purchased the car Victoria Richardson, did an outstanding job showing us all the features. We set up an appointment to do a follow-up visit the same evening with Victoria, and met again and her energy, patience, and enthusiastic personality was perfect for us and we left feeling very comfortable with what we were shown. Additionally, we had a trade in at our home and Brett took the time to go to our home the same evening an pick-up the trade-in. Overall the best car shopping and purchasing experience my wife and I have ever had. Since then, we have been back to have a protective coating put on the car and the service experience again reflected a professional and courteous experience. In summary, this was the best experience and continues to be. We will definitely put Mercedes-Benz of Sacramento on the top of our list for our next car purchase. Great job to Brett, Tony, Victoria, and Georgian, thanks for making this a great experience. More

My wife purchased a 350ML in 3/12 and asked for a MERCEDES BENZ extended warranty. In addition we were sold a tire replacement warranty. Having relocated ; we were informed by our local MB dealer tha MERCEDES BENZ extended warranty. In addition we were sold a tire replacement warranty. Having relocated ; we were informed by our local MB dealer that we did not have a MB extended warranty. MB of Sacramento told us that they did not sell MB extended warranties; but used a another outside company as then then did not have to use MB authorized parts.Guess what? The actual MB extended warranty with actual MB authorized parts was over $2,400 LESS that the outside company they sell using knock off parts. The tire warranty was only good at the Sacramento location. After demanding cancellation due to NOT being sold an actual MB extended warranty as was represented by them - they tried to charge us a PRO-RATED refund instead of the amount we paid. Checked with MB USA and MB of Sacramento and was informed MB of Sacramento does NOT sell ACTUAL Mercedes Benz extended warranties; but with a third party. WATCH OUT YOU DO NOT PAY MORE FOR A NON FACTORY EXTENDED WARRANTY THAN FOR A FACTORY WARRANTY USING AUTHTHIC MERCEDES BENZ PARTS. More

Two different Carfax reports given for one and the same vehicle. I have documents to support my claim. My concern on this matter was not looked into. Internet Manager's pricing on this same vehicle was muc vehicle. I have documents to support my claim. My concern on this matter was not looked into. Internet Manager's pricing on this same vehicle was much less than posted legibly on the screen of the same car at the same time right in front of the main office. Eves dropping on phone by salesman Charlie while I was speaking to Joe Ann. He butted in without any prior warning. Took this matter up with Joe Ann later and she looked down in shame. The Executive Asst. to the owner, did not have the courtesy or decency to keep to his promise. In my view, those I dealt with were just a bunch of liars, and I have no intention to have any dealings with this company or recommend their shoddy attitude to any of my friends. More
