Best dealership service in my experience I've had Chrysler and VW cars, and I've worked with four different VW dealerships (all of which were superior to Chrysler), and Schmelz Countryside VW I've had Chrysler and VW cars, and I've worked with four different VW dealerships (all of which were superior to Chrysler), and Schmelz Countryside VW is by far the best of all---in every way. Every service representative that's helped me has been excellent, but over the years I've ended up using Shevawn, who is just so fun to work with. She's helped me out with routine and emergency situations, and has made life so much easier for me. A year ago I purchased a car with the help of Ralph Ludden, who was patient, absolutely non-pressuring, and extremely helpful. It was the best car purchasing experience I've ever had. I love Volkswagen and Schmelz Countryside. More

This is the second car we've purchased from Schmeldz and they have always been great both during the sales and the service work. Everyone is pleasant, polite and very professional it has always been a pleasure to work with them. More
Sales Dept was helpful I recently purchased a car from Schmelz working with David Reed. David was friendly, and made sure he got an answer for any of my questions. I didn't I recently purchased a car from Schmelz working with David Reed. David was friendly, and made sure he got an answer for any of my questions. I didn't feel pressured at any point, and the experience was positive overall. The only negative of the experience was waiting almost three hours to talk to finance and finish the deal, and there was only one customer ahead of me. Both of the finance guys were new so hopefully they can improve this side of things. Once it was my turn it only took 15 minutes, so I'm guessing some of the blame lies with the customer in front of me. More

He was very polite, friendly, very knowledgeable, and honest. I wish all customer service reps were this caliber. Service was done quickly, and carefully. They even hand washed my car! More
Recent visit for 10,000 mile check, and oil change Really appreciated the service. Was able to drive in without an appt and wait while my car was serviced. My wait was as long expected, waiting area w Really appreciated the service. Was able to drive in without an appt and wait while my car was serviced. My wait was as long expected, waiting area was comfortable and clean. The Service person helping me out was Brent Harshman, and he was very helpful and explained what was checked on my car. I needed to call him later in the week about an error light that came on about tire pressure, and he was very nice about having me stop back in again so they can take a look at it. I will return to this VW shop for future service. Maren Rosas More
40,000 mile maintenance including oil change I arrived at Schmelz VW at approximately 1100 for the 40,000 mile maintenance, including oil change, tire rotation and a safety recall inspection serv I arrived at Schmelz VW at approximately 1100 for the 40,000 mile maintenance, including oil change, tire rotation and a safety recall inspection service. As always, I am promptly approached by Shavonn Berg (service rep) with a big smile and friendly greeting. I usually will wait for the vehicle; so was directed to the lounge area. I was told it would take about 2 hours, which is exactly how long it was. The car was also washed (greatly appreciated). We were on the road by 1330. Can't say enough about the service and also the sales rep, Ralph Ludden. He always remembers my husband and I as well, and we are greeted with a friendly hello and a little visit. More
Not treated as valued customers Horrible customer service. Went in to activate a gift card that we were given for purchasing a car there. Literally bought the car not long ago. They Horrible customer service. Went in to activate a gift card that we were given for purchasing a car there. Literally bought the car not long ago. They wanted a copy of the title, which we don't have because vw has the lien and loan on it. They insisted that we had to have it in order to prove proof of ownership and so they can make sure we are the right full owner of the gift card. First, the car was purchased right at their dealership with their finance, they should have had proof of ownership right there. Second, the gift card had our name printed on it and we had our Id. Third, they said they needed pictures of our car to prove we still own the car. It was sitting right out side their window... Duh people. We were treated like xxxx. Not like we just bought a $40000 car from them and they were thankful. We will never go back. No purchases, no service, and will not recommend them to anyone else. More
