I purchased a 2013 Jetta TDI Diesel from Shawn Baron. I have all the routine service work done for the first 70,000 miles. That included the DSG transmission service at 40,000 miles. I knew there was some have all the routine service work done for the first 70,000 miles. That included the DSG transmission service at 40,000 miles. I knew there was something wrong with the car because my mpg went way down. I just couldn’t put my finger on it. At 80,000 I decided to do the DSG Transmission myself. The capacity should be 4 1/2 quarts of fluid. I had a friend with me when I drained The DSG transmission. I got 9 quarts out of it!!!! They probably never drained the original transmission fluid and added another 4 1/2 quarts. after I did my own service the car started driving well again and my fuel economy went back up. I was surprised that they did not blow my transmission due to their negligence! I called the service manager Melvin Ramos and asked who was the xxxxxx who put 9 quarts of transmission fluid in my car? He said he would follow up and get back to me. He never did The next time I came back to the service department for warranty work I produced the 5 gallon bucket with a 9 quarts of transmission fluid in it. The new xxxxxxx in the service department tried to suggest that I could’ve just put any oil in that bucket!!!! I told him that I had notified Melville Ramos at the time. And that he was supposed to follow up and did not. So this xxxxxxx basically accused me of trying to perpetrate a fraud! I am mediately asked to speak to the general manager four times that day. They made excuses and said he wasn’t available. This is a den of vipers and they should never be trusted by anyone! they are absolute low class people. More

Oops I did it again..hit a pothole and was riding on a donut Robert Rice was very helpful with getting my tire replaced and ordered a new part for my radio. He really cares about what he does and it shows throug Robert Rice was very helpful with getting my tire replaced and ordered a new part for my radio. He really cares about what he does and it shows through in his interactions. He has a very busy client load, especially on a Saturday morning when everyone is asking him a million questions all at the same time. What sets him apart is his affable disposition and that he is involved with each client personally. More

Excellent Service I had an unexpected issue with my 2011 Jetta that I recently purchsaed from another dealership. I went in to see Robert and he had a tech on hand read I had an unexpected issue with my 2011 Jetta that I recently purchsaed from another dealership. I went in to see Robert and he had a tech on hand ready for a test drive. After determining there was an issue with the vehicle, he was able to have the car repaired while I waited. I have owned several vehicles in the past and have worked with service departments but I never had such a great experience working with a group of professionals like I've experienced today. They were coridal, considerate and concerned with the issues at hand. I appreciate the professionalism Rob and his staff has shown. More
