Worked out the purchase of a 2025 LS500 with Rick Praml.
Worked out the purchase of a 2025 LS500 with Rick Praml. He said he would get the salesman to write it up. I made a plane reservation to pick up the car. The salesman, Mikail, sent me the paper work and the pricing wasn't what Rick and I agreed too. I suggested Mikail reach out to Rick to get the correct agreed upon pricing. Instead he just told me I didn't have to by the car if I didn't want it. What a crock! Buyer beware. Not sure about the dealership as a whole, but beware of these two if dealing with this dealership. Was able to cancel the flight, as it was within the 24 hour cancelation window.

Performed annual service the last two times.
Performed annual service the last two times. First was great, second they scratched two wheels. Nothing but excuses. Tried to blame us for everything. Very poor customer relations from service staff, service manager to the rude and insulting general manager. Absolutely unbelievable. Possibly since we did not purchase vehicle from them. We have had 2 Lexus, purchased from others dealers out of town. Will never set foot in a Pohanka dealership. I am sure some have good experiences, but reading other reviews, some of the same named staff treated us the same way. Very sad. I will be purchasing my next Lexus soon and would have bought it here, but no way after the interaction we had.

We purchased a new 2025 Lexus GX550 on May 24, 2025
We purchased a new 2025 Lexus GX550 on May 24, 2025 from Pohanka Lexus. Our experience with our sales consultant Maren Reynolds was excellent. We had been trying to purchase a GX550 since the 2025 models were released. We had been working with three Lexus dealers to get the vehicle we wanted and Maren was the only sales person to keep in contact and supply updates as to when the color and interior we specified would possibly be available. The whole process went extremely well and Maren supplied us with all the assistance we needed to get the job done. We are very happy with our new Lexus GX 550 and the professional courtesy we were provided while completing the purchase.

Don’t bring your car here for service.
Don’t bring your car here for service. I brought my 2024 Lexus RX350 for service one of their new staff Samira, doesn’t know much about car will help you. Their other staff won’t even help. They never call to update you about the car. My car was done the day before and the next day I had to call for an update and they said it was done the day before. This dealer will lie to you and will make lots of excuses. The service manager Albert that was suppose to call me never did. Don’t waste your time and bring your car here. Who knows if they actually do your service at all.

Very professional and welcoming sales staff, especially
Very professional and welcoming sales staff, especially Maren, which is who I worked with. Not at all pushy, and was respectful of my wishes in a car and didn't try to sell me something I wasn't interested in. Finance department was very helpful and personable. The entire experience from start to finish was warm and welcoming. I felt appreciated and respected.

I recently purchased a GX550 Overtrail+ from Pohanka
I recently purchased a GX550 Overtrail+ from Pohanka Lexus. From the moment I initiated an online inquiry to stepping onto the lot, Matt Vasenko helped me with the buying process, which was seamless and enjoyable. His communication was efficient, and he always responded quickly to my questions. What really stood out to me, however, was Matt's personable and genuine nature. There was no pressure, just a thoughtful approach to helping me find the perfect vehicle for my needs. Moreover, I'd be remiss if I didn't give a shout-out to Sales Manager Kirk Schwartz! His transparency throughout the entire process was refreshing, and he went above and beyond to ensure I had all the information I needed to make an informed decision. It’s rare to find such a dedicated team that truly prioritizes the customer's experience. In addition to making sure to help a Veteran! This was, without a doubt, a remarkable car-buying experience. I highly recommend both Matt and Kirk to anyone looking for a professional, stress-free, and honest approach to purchasing a vehicle. Thank you, Team Pohanka! ~Skip P.

On February 17, 2025, I arrived at Pohanka Lexus at 12:30
On February 17, 2025, I arrived at Pohanka Lexus at 12:30 PM for service. The check-in process was completely disorganized—there was no clear line, and customers rushed forward when advisors called “Next,” leading to people cutting in. Despite five staff members and a manager (Albert Yawson), only two advisors and the manager were actively assisting customers. After 15 minutes, Charles Nguyen helped me but was unprofessional. When I asked about my car, he told me to Google it. He initially said washer fluid wouldn’t be added, then changed his answer after checking. I also asked about the complimentary car wash, and he confirmed it. I specifically told him I would be waiting on the second level, and he said he would notify me when my car was ready. By 3:30 PM, I had received no updates. I called the service desk, only to learn my car had been ready for over an hour. When I confronted Charles, he falsely claimed he thought I had left. He then sent me to find my car, saying the keys were inside, but after searching multiple parking lots in freezing weather, an employee informed me that keys are always kept inside. After retrieving them, I found my car wasn’t washed or vacuumed. I had to wait another 90 minutes for the promised car wash, with Charles repeatedly forgetting about it. Only when I complained to Albert Yawson did my car finally get washed—over an hour late. Thinking my ordeal was over, I drove home, only to discover a long scratch on my windshield. I returned immediately, but Albert denied responsibility, insisting it was safe to drive. Throughout this entire experience, no one apologized, and the lack of professionalism and customer service was unacceptable.

I received a loner vehicle while my 2014 ES 350 Mark
I received a loner vehicle while my 2014 ES 350 Mark Jacobson Lexus stayed overnite at Chantilly. I woke up today January 24 full of brightness started my loaner Lexus and off we went. I did one errand and was prepared to return the loaner. Engine refused to turn over. Called my Lexus service rep Hetty Stoner and turned me over to Lexus Roadside Assistance. Came with in 45 minutes and off we went to Chantilly. Constructive tips- please give a loaner with at least half tank of gas and inform customer as to start up procedure in every loaner vehicle. Weather permitting make sure all loaners have been cleaned and washed for eye candy effect. First cabin not log cabin. I love Pohanka Lexus. Hetty Stoner service rep Camaru mechanic 5-stars all the way. Go Skins Go Commanders all the way. Rob "STEIN" Rothstein CIA Retired

This is the second time I am getting ripped up by Pohanka
This is the second time I am getting ripped up by Pohanka Lexus service department. This time I took my car in because it had a slow leak in one of my tires. They called that there is nail in the tire and although tire has under 15,000 miles we cannot repair the tire and I have to buy a new tire. I told them fine but, please keep my old tire for me. Not only they did not keep the tire, they charged me $30.00 to recycle it.
