Started out good.
Started out good...almost had the deal finalized when Leif brought it to my attention that the Driver Assistance Package ($3,500.00) value was inoperable and that they were not willing or able to repair. I asked to be compensated a thousand dollars so that I could have it repaired once I took ownership of the car. Jacob, the sales manager, was only willing to knock $300 off the asking price. I had asked for the best cash price due to having my own financing. They almost guaranteed me that they could beat my CU's rate. I allowed them pull my credit and try. Jacob informed me that he had me %.25 lower than my Credit Union...all that I needed was a $5,000.00 down payment. I declined. Just before I had made my plans to fly out to Houston, Leif called to inform me of the inoperable DAP. Needless to say, we did not close the deal. This is not a dealership that I would wish to conduct any future deals with. Leif did a good job trying to make the sale and at least being honest with me before I made the trip.

Dear Ms. Boyd, I appreciated the opportunity to speak with you recently and I am sorry that we were unable to reach a resolution that meets your needs. Sincerely, Lance Baker General Manager
11/14/24 was my worst experience and my dash camera revealed how unprofessional, unethical, and disrespectful the service department employees I encountered is. I have been a loyal customer to this location for 2.5 years. I trusted what my service advisor(SA) Damon told me as the upfront price and detailed diagnostics from technician. They charge $265 for labor per hour plus parts price. They add sales tax of 8.25% to price of parts. The SA has capability to provide complimentary extra add ons and discount like topping off gasoline or a signature detail hand wash. This visit my Mercedes-Benz S550 rt. ft. door lock was not working properly and SA said he would get diagnostic done. I was sent a video from tech that diagnostic was “lock not ok”. I sent SA details to rule out door actuator or any other reason because all doors would unlocked when I opened driver door and rt door would unlocked at random times. Door lock replaced by Jackson but I was still having issues with lock before I left service dept. SA said he would ask more experienced technicians Robbie and call me back. It never happened. Before picking up my S550 I text my SA to make sure door issues was resolved and that my car was hand washed and detailed properly. On 2 previous occasions my car floorboard was not vacuumed and my driver mat was wet. SA noticed this and I also reported to service director (SD) Jay on previous times. Both SA and Jay offered me a complimentary detail and said it would be done correct The First Time(now I have 2 detail add ons for next visits). On 11-14-24 I was told my S550 was hand washed by SA who confirmed from detail mgr Jose it was and car was inspected and ready to go. Upon my arrival I noticed carpet was wet and my mats were wet. My floorboards had trash on it, my console was damaged, my car was not hand washed as I was told. My dashcam show this and how product bottles were laying in my seat and tech sitting on top of them as he cleaned. Such disrespect for my car and lack of work ethic. SA text me they drop the ball AGAIN and he would explain everything to management team to make it right. Jay response is unprofessional, lack integrity, and lack of understanding of all details of employees work ethics. He said service detailing don’t do hand washing on a detail and that he would take off website and doesn’t care if I was told it hand wash. SA said my b service is $800 and jay said that was not the truth that it is $938.26. He stand behind Jackson(tech) who quoted price and approve of the diagnostic I was given as “lock not ok”. Because of of the price discrepancies and inconsistency in what Jay, tech, and Damon said it made me feel their lack of integrity and disrespect. I reviewed all my receipts from previous visit at this location and discovered hidden charges and over charges for labor and parts. My multi point inspection had inconsistent grading on tires and brakes. I received a call from GM Lance and he too was disrespectful to me dismissing and denying what SA and I discussed as accurate pricing. I have videos, text messages, and paid receipts as proof. Lance told me not to come back to dealership as his Resolution. I was not aware how deplorable, dishonest and unprofessional the service department is until I able to see on my dash camera,review details of my invoice and speak to Upper Management Jay and Lance. Beware of the service department and the specific people I dealt with in service department. Lance, I want a full refund of incomplete service $1045.69 as MY Resolve to this matter. Mercedes-Benz brand is excellent and I’m glad they have dash cameras installed options on 2024 vehicles. I did not get excellent service from the service department.
Response to general manager: Thank you for taking the time to respond, but I’m disappointed that my concerns were not taken seriously or resolved. I approached your business in good faith, hoping for a solution to the issue I experienced. Unfortunately, your unwillingness to address it reflects poorly on the customer service and accountability I expect from a reputable business. I stand by my review and hope you’ll reconsider your approach to customer feedback in the future. I am escalating this matter to a Corporate Complaint and Regional Manager for honest and respectful resolution that represents Mercedes Benz brand “The Best or Nothing”.

Very impressed with the salesman who sold me my AMG GLE
Very impressed with the salesman who sold me my AMG GLE 63S. His name is Eli Acosta and was a true professional from start to finish. I am in Pittsburgh, PA and the dealer is in Houston so honesty and integrity is first and foremost when buying a car sight unseen. I got all of that and more.

Definitely pricier on repairs than other Mercedes
Definitely pricier on repairs than other Mercedes dealerships in Houston area. Took car to replace sunroof rails and waited three days before a call from the service department on quote to replace them (guessing understaffed). A neighbor with the same year and model replaced her sunroof rails two months ago from a Mercedes dealership in southern Houston area. The price quoted to me by Sewell was $1000 MORE than what they neighbor paid. Needless to say, I had my car serviced at the other dealership and my next car will not be from the Sewell Mercedes dealership (which is where I bought my current car).

Jay assisted us with our Mercedes at our home
We purchased two coupes and needed our garage doors programmed with our new Mercedes. Jay came out and quickly figured out why we were having so much difficulty. He was polite, patient and provided excellent customer service. We are so happy that we purchased from Sewell!! The service and professionalism of the staff is hands down the best!!!

Run from Sewell Dealerships
I brought my GL 450 to Sewell on December 14 to have the airmatic pump replaced. My service advisor, Juan Quiroq, aka Jay, told me my battery needed to be replaced. Mercedes-Benz’s dashboard lets you know if something is wrong with your vehicle. I informed Jay, I did not get any indicator from my message center about my battery. He told me how the service department ran a diagnosis on my vehicle, and the battery was not correctly powering my SUV. He then gave me a six hundred dollars something quote for the battery and labor, and I refused to pay that price. Jay called me later about a turbo line not covered by my warranty. That was $1300.00 plus, and I declined that service also. I went to get my vehicle, and the check coolant light was on. I explained to Jay this was not on my dashboard when I dropped it off. He told me the turbo line was leaking and the coolant was not staying in my radiant. I did not have this problem before I dropped my vehicle at Sewell. I have a mechanic that works on my cars. I have been with him for almost a decade. I just brought this Mercedes, and it is still under warranty. This is the only reason my mechanic is not working on my Mercedes. I explained all this to Jay, and he reassured me my fluids were topped, and I could make it to my mechanic. Well, my vehicle ran hot. I was not even five miles from Sewell. Again, I told Jay I was not going far and asked if my vehicle could make it without running hot. He said yes. I explained to Jay I have towing services with my warranty, insurance, and roadside assistance. My mechanic is the head mechanic for a major dealership in Houston, and I have been working with him for years. He explained that the turbo line should not have been disturbed if they were working on the airmatic pump, and my dashboard was not reading low coolant when I dropped it to them. He stated, based on his experience and the damage on the turbo line this was caused by human error. I ordered the turbo line from Sewell. I was told I had to buy all four turbo lines. When I went to purchase the parts, I again asked the service parts employee if I had to buy all four turbo lines because I only needed the two left turbo lines. He said he could only sell all four together. I relayed this to my mechanic. He told me to give him the parts, and he would return them. He did just that. I bought an unnecessary battery from another Mercedes-Benz dealership for much less than Sewell quoted me. I bought and paid for my two left turbo lines to be replaced because of human error, and I was sold unnecessary parts, two right turbo lines. Thank God there are descent mechanics out there, and mine was able to get my money back for the two right turbo links. I was out of almost a thousand dollars during the holidays. I have been calling Jay for days now and leaving voicemail messages, and he won’t answer or return my calls. Thanks, Sewell and Jay. You lost a customer, and I am posting this on every review website that will let me.
