Sarah, thank you for your feedback. We are pleased to hear that you were happy with Charles and the service he provided. We are concerned by your comments regarding the engine coolant hose. During your visit, no repairs were performed in the engine compartment other than a courtesy fluid top-off, so we would like to better understand the concern. Could you please let us know which coolant hose you believe was damaged? Additionally, have you had an opportunity to discuss this matter directly with Charles? If you truly feel the hose was damaged during your visit, we would be more than willing to inspect the vehicle. Should our inspection determine that we were responsible, we will gladly discuss repair options, including repairing it at no cost to you. Please contact us directly so we can gather more information and work toward a resolution. We appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns.

Dear Gabriele, Thank you for bringing your concerns to our attention. We are sorry to hear that you experienced an issue with your vehicle and understand your frustration regarding the repairs that were needed. We take claims of this nature very seriously and would like the opportunity to better understand the situation. Based on the information provided, we understand that after our recent engine oil and filter service, you had repairs performed elsewhere totaling approximately $2,000, and that the repair facility indicated the oil filter housing was damaged. To properly review your concerns, could you please provide a copy of the repair invoice, technician notes, and any photographs or documentation from the repairing facility? These documents will help us understand the diagnosis, the repairs that were performed, and the basis for their conclusion that the oil filter housing was damaged. While we are committed to conducting a fair and thorough review, it is important to note that an engine oil and filter change service typically does not involve disassembly or replacement of the oil filter housing itself. In many cases, oil leaks originating from the oil filter housing are related to gasket deterioration, material fatigue, or other component issues that can develop independently of a routine oil and filter service. However, we would like to review all available information before drawing any conclusions. Once we receive the repair documentation, we will carefully evaluate the details and determine whether any further investigation is necessary. We appreciate your cooperation and look forward to receiving the requested information so we can continue our review. Sincerely, Webster Lingle Service Manager

Unfortunately, after leaving BMW and arriving home a large puddle of oil was found under the car. When BMW finally called back, they advised us to have the car towed to them. By that time our trusted mechanic of 27 years looked at the car and made us aware of the damaged oil filter housing gasket which was over tightened during the last oil change. Bmw caused 2k of damage over complete carelessness and will not take accountability because we did not wait long enough for them to respond to our concern.

Thank you for your feedback. We take all billing concerns seriously and strive to be as clear and transparent as possible with our pricing. Unfortunately, since this review is anonymous, we’re unable to look into the specific details of your visit to fully understand what may have occurred. It’s possible there may have been a misunderstanding regarding the services performed or, on rare occasions, an error on our end. We would truly appreciate the opportunity to review your account and ensure everything is accurate—or make it right if it’s not. Please don’t hesitate to contact me directly so we can discuss this further. You can reach me at 484-387-1840.
