Vandergriff Acura

Our experience with Jeff Carter We just want to the dealship to check out the MDX. We have been looking at other mid size SUV's and had not made up our mind on what we wanted. Just We just want to the dealship to check out the MDX. We have been looking at other mid size SUV's and had not made up our mind on what we wanted. Just thought that we would drive out to Vandergriffs to check out the MDX and left with it. Jeff was really helpful with our decision. He pointed out all the good features it has. Some that we did not know about. We spent the afternoon with them and enjoyed it. Our experience with them was nothing like any other dealships. It was an enjoyable afternoon and we met a few really good people that day. I would refer anyone I know to them, as a matter of fact I am referring my son to them when they get ready to purchase their new car. More

awesome salesmen working together I had 2 salesmen working with me and their names are Jay Driscoll and Jay Huffaker. They were the great 2 men that were so helpful and worked together I had 2 salesmen working with me and their names are Jay Driscoll and Jay Huffaker. They were the great 2 men that were so helpful and worked together as one. While one was busy helping me another customer, they were going back and forth with me another customer and they were smooth sailing with us both. My first time seeing or dealing with two salesmen working hard to satisfy me and another customer at the same time. It was an awesome experience and these 2 gentlemen were amazing!!! Thank you Jay and Jay for a job well done!!!! Awesome team, Acura you are very blessed to have these two men working for you because their number 1 thing was making sure I was comfortable and making a great deal and great choice to buy the car I really wanted, the Acura TL.

Best Price Upfront.... No Nichols and Dimes I live in Spring Tx and stopped into Vandergriff Acura to just look a the MDX while I was out of town. I explained to my salesman (Jeff Carter) that I live in Spring Tx and stopped into Vandergriff Acura to just look a the MDX while I was out of town. I explained to my salesman (Jeff Carter) that I was driving a 2011 MDX that I was giving to my daughter. (New grandchild) Jeff showed me the MDX and did not waste time with things I already new. He was very thorough and could answer the tough questions. I then asked for a price. Jeff stated upfront he was going to be very transparent and he was. He quoted a price that would get me to drive back up to Arlington. I already shopped in Houston a found this was the best price and I did not have to waste time waiting on managers. Straight up good deal with no surprises. More

Liked salesman but not dealership I came to Vandergriff Acura to look at a used Chevrolet Cruze I found on the internet. I talked to Daren Beames on the phone prior to my visit. I ar I came to Vandergriff Acura to look at a used Chevrolet Cruze I found on the internet. I talked to Daren Beames on the phone prior to my visit. I arrived at approximately 4:00 P.M. and brought cash to buy the car if I liked it. I was assured on the phone before the visit the car was in perfect working order. On the usual "test drive" I noticed there was a "bulls eye" right below the drivers view where a rock had hit the windshield of the car and there were cracks approximately 1" long running in several directions. Also I noticed the Navigation did not work. I was not told of either of these defects until I spotted them myself. I was assured both defects would be fixed in short order. I spent approximately 4 hours in the dealership that evening. I decided to take the car based on the assurances the defects would be fixed promptly. I did not take the car home with me even though I paid cash at the time. The next day I was notified the Navigation would take approximately a week and a half to fix due to having to order a "chip" for it. I told the salesperson, Daren Beames I did not want to wait that long for a car I had already paid for. After talking to Mr. Beames, the Sales Manager called me and I asked him to fix the windshield and I would be after the car after noon the next day and he promised to call me if it would not be ready. I came to pick the car up and was told the windshield was fixed only to find it to be EXACTLY as it was when I test drove it. After spending another 3 plus hours at the dealership I was finally informed the windshield would be replaced (as it should have been in the first place). I was provided a loner vehicle (which was empty of fuel) and drove it home (after buying fuel). The next day I was contacted by the salesperson stating they needed the loaner car to show to a prospective buyer. Mr. Beames delivered the Cruze to my home (with the new windshield) and left with the loaner car. About a week or so later, I called about the "chip" for the Navigation system and was told by Mr. Beames the "chip" had came in that morning. I drove to the dealership that day and was handed the chip which I installed myself. After driving the car for approximately 2 weeks or 3 weeks, I noticed the right front tire had a chunk of rubber missing from the sidewall along with a small hole next to the missing rubber. It would not have been noticed if the car hadn't been parked in the sunlight where it was easy to see. The carfax statement said the right front wheel had been repaired and I asked Mr. Beames about the nature of the repair and he stated he was unable to find out what it was. The car had been detailed and I looked at the tread on the tires but not the sidewalls when I inspected the car. This was a DEFINATE safety hazard the dealership had to know about. I took the car to Discount Tire and bought 2 new tires for $417. To sum up my visit to Vandergriff Acura, I spent approximately 7 hours at the dealership trying to buy a car that I brought cash to buy. Most of the time was sitting around waiting. I left the dealership without the car because of the discrepancies. I was mislead as to the condition of the car prior to my arrival and to the time it would take to have the discrepancies fixed. I was also told by the salesperson I did not qualify for the 3 months of free XM radio because the car was used and was not a Certified Used Car. After having the car for approx. a month, XM radio called me to find out how I liked the XM radio in my Cruze. I told them what I was told by the salesperson and was told this was not true. They activated my free XM for a 3 month trial period. While I think Daren Beames did everything he could to take care of the problems I encountered in buying the car, I fault the dealership for not having the car ready for sale and not replacing the windshield "up front" as they should have. In no form or fashion am I a sales person, but if I were, and I knew I had a potential customer on the way to look at a car, you can bet I would assure everything on the car was in working order before the customer arrived. It would be most embarrassing for the customer to point out very obvious defects in a product I was selling. So in a rating of 1 to 10, I would give Daren Beames an 8 and would give Vandergriff Acura a 2. The 2 is because they did have a Chevrolet Cruze for sale. More

Customer Curtesy Response to GM: This is laughable. The GM, John Ellis says he is horrified by my bad experience at Vandergriff Acura and he asked that I call or email Response to GM: This is laughable. The GM, John Ellis says he is horrified by my bad experience at Vandergriff Acura and he asked that I call or email so that he could get the details on what I happened. Guess they didn't read my post where I stated that I had already emailed the GM at jellis@vtaig.com with details. I decided to call instead to insure that he had received my previous email and explain verbally what took place. I called the number Mr. Ellis gave me at 9:45 am on April 7. A member of his staff informed me that he was in a meeting so I gave them my name and number told them the call was in reference to a negative review I posted online and to please have him call me back. I didn't get a call back so I called again at 2:43 pm that same day. The operator answered transferred my call then I got disconnected. I called again at 2:45 pm, another person from his staff answered and told me he had stepped out of the his office. Again I told them the purpose of my call, told them it was my second call and that I would like a call back. Here it is one day later and nothing. I understand now. I first thought it was lack of training that had led to my unpleasant experience at Vandergriff Acura, but truth of the matter is that management just doesn't care. My wife and I recently visited Vandergriff Acura in Arlington and were dishearten by their lack of professionalism and common customer courtesy. We were looking for a new car but didn't find one in our price range. The sales consultantt, Alex Sanoal, that we talked with called the following day. He told me his manager had asked him to call us back because they found a car we might be interested in. We made an appointment for 03/28/14 at 2. We arrived a few minutes early for the appointment, Alex came by told us they were bringing the car around to the front. Few minutes later I asked Alex about the delay. He said his manager was getting it but that the car lot was huge so it would be a few more minutes. I noticed something was not right because now Alex was avoiding me. It had been 45 minutes since we initialy talked with Alex so I decided to get the GM's email from the receptionist. While I was getting the information Marcus Hudson, Sales Consultant, came by and told us someone had dropped the ball, there was no car. I sent an email that same day to the GM, John Ellis to let him know that there were some issues with our visit. I have not heard from him or anyone else associated with Vandergriff Acura. Response from the ownerin the last week- Dear Francisco Lucero, I'm horrified that this was your experience at Vandergriff Acura. We pride ourselves on our customer service and this is certainly no way to show that. I would first like to apologize for this unacceptable service and secondly I'd ask that you please call or email me (jellis@vtaig.com) at your earliest convenience so I can get more details on what happened and to see what I can personally do to correct any challenges you are still experiencing. Thank you, John Ellis, General Manager Vandergriff Acura (817) 467-1000 More

I bought an Acura ILX, and have not bought a car in 13years. Jeff Carter, the Internet Manager, made the process so smooth, easy, and exciting!! After my car died on me as I was driving on the highway, 13years. Jeff Carter, the Internet Manager, made the process so smooth, easy, and exciting!! After my car died on me as I was driving on the highway, I was forced to consider getting a new car. I looked at pre-owned Lexus' and brand new Nissan's and they just couldn't compare in my opinion for features vs. price. I told Jeff what I was looking for in a car, and what price I could afford and he found it for me. He was quick and responsive throughout my decision making process, always giving me the information I needed and requested. Jeff and the other managers and staff were friendly and helpful. If you're going to buy a car, work with Jeff Carter!!! He's the absolute best :) He even called to check on me that evening to make sure I got home safely, and enjoyed the ride home! More
