Wonderful purchasing experience

Jose Vazquez (Sales) and Kevin Chung (Finance) helped make my son's first car buying experience a pleasant situation. We highly recommend Jose and Kevin!

Thank you for sharing your experience with us! Thank you so much for choosing Jim Ellis Volkswagen Kennesaw as your first choice for service. We hope to see you again soon!

Good customer support!

When I arrived at Jim Ellis VW and Kennesaw, Arianna came right out and listened to what the problem was with our car and said she would take care of it. It turned out we had a small leak where the blue mixes with the gas. They fix the leak and kept the car in extra day or so to be sure that everything was good. I also noticed that each Service tech jumps in and helps the customer. Rafael help me when I came to pick up my car because Arianna wasn’t in that day. You run a Smooth service team.

New car engine trouble on the home from purchase.

The engine light came on and fuel gauge went to empty as soon as I got home from the purchase. I regret buying a new vehicle and wish I could just get my trade-in back.

Return visit, very disappointed.

I purchased my ’09 Beetle in Denver and had great service from Larry Miller Volkswagen. After moving to Woodstock, I took it in for service to Jim Ellis because the trunk latch was only working sometimes and because the driver's window was not operating in sync with the convertible top. Total cost was $528.33 for the trunk harness and $633.07 for the window sync. I also paid $435.40 for oil change and brake work. Because I have a warranty, I paid only the $100 deductible for each of the two mechanical/technology repairs. When I took the car in, the convertible top was operating. When I got the car back, the convertible top was not operating - in fact, the motor that operated the top could not even be heard. I was told that the "switch" that operates the top had gone bad. Really? While it was in for service? I doubt it. Again, using the warranty, I was charged the $100 deductible of the total cost of “repairing the switch”, $457.67. When I questioned this, I was told that the repairs done in the first visit were not connected to the "repair" of the switch. Yet, the window had to be synced with the operation of the convertible top. Although I really like the service person I worked with, I feel that I, as well as my warranty company, was scammed on the “repair” of the “switch”. I drove out, determined to find another dealership for future service.
