Service Department Rip Off

Over the years we have purchased 3 vehicles from here. The most recent, a 2017 TLX, was due for an oil change so I made an appointment and my wife brought the car in. I'm expecting a bill of $60, which is their price for a synthetic oil change. Instead, my wife comes home with a bill for $250! While she was waiting in the showroom the service tech hunts her down to show her two filters, the engine air filter and the cabin filter, that she described as "beyond black". Really? 16000 miles and the filters are "beyond black". What do they do? Keep dirty filters on hand to force customers to replace them. My wife, not knowing any better, agrees. The air filter plus "labor" was $50. What xxxxxx labor?? Two clips, 45 seconds, and the filter is replaced. The cabin filter cost me another $80 for what is likely a 10 minute job. I've reached out to Dean, the service manager, but he hasn't replied. I doubt he ever will. Taking advantage of a woman's lack of know-how around cars is shameless. Can't believe this is their standard operating procedure at Rick Case. I will never buy another vehicle at Rick Case nor will I ever have my car serviced there.

Repairing a rear view mirror

They told me I could wait in the lobby for my car but they didn’t order the parts ahead of time causing them to keep my car overnight. They refused to give me a loaner car. The recommended repairs were suspect such as the need to replace a windshield to fix a rear view mirror. They did not call me until 3pm with an estimate of what was needed.

Nightmare

On Sunday, 09/23/18, I traded in my 2011 Honda Accord with 57,000 in great condition for a 2016 Mazda CX-5 GT at Rick Case Acura of Fort Lauderdale. I purchased this vehicle because I wanted something “safer” for children. This vehicle had a clean Carfax with no accidents, 36,000 miles and was sitting on that lot for about 3 months before I purchased it (for the asking price!). They promised to fix the seat, as it was making noises as well. I was thrilled with it for about an hour. As I drove the car home from the dealership, the car jolted me into traffic, nearly causing an accident, when the transmission failed and delayed 5 seconds to put into drive. They took the car and told me I needed a new transmission at the Mazda dealership. They forced me to rent my own vehicle, after I sent an email complaining, they finally gave me a loaner. They offered to pay to repair a few scratches on the car as a courtesy. After 3 weeks in the loaner, I got a I received a call from German, the manager. He basically told me that he was NOT going to fix my seat (which was part of the deal), that there is no spare key(which was part of the deal), and that all they were going to do is fix the body damage and nothing more. I told him I would be going to the internet to leave a review to hopefully reach corporate and make them aware of this situation. He literraly said "IF YOU LEAVE ME A BAD REVIEW, I WILL CALL THE BODY SHOP AND TELL THEM TO STOP WORKING ON THE CAR RIGHT NOW AND YOU CAN COME PICK IT UP AS IS". This is the most unprofessional, unethical dealership that I have ever done business with. The manager basically threatened to go back on HIS WORD if I took to the internet with my experience. Please dont buy a car here from these thieves. The quality of their vehicles, customer service and overall ethical values are nothing short of disgusting. Don’t trust their word, get everything in writing and bring a mechanic with you when you purchase a vehicle here because you can’t even trust the quality of the cars on this lot. Always do your research on the dealership before you waste your money or your time. This place turned into a nightmare to deal with and now I am stuck with a vehicle that I don’t feel safe putting myself or my children in. Unfortunately for Rick Case Acura, I still have my first amendment right so I hope my review helps others in their decision to purchase a vehicle from this particular dealership. Salesguy: Feliciano, Manager: German

BIG DISAPPOINTMENT...

Got a car that was " certified" with the promise of getting a detailed cleaning and the windows tinted. When i got to pick up the car it was dirt nothing was done. After the deal was done I feel like they don't care anymore. Be wise about them.

Lacks Intergrity

I purchased an Audi Q5 2012 vehicle from this dealership in December and encountered all types of issues dealing with honesty. The first occurrence was with them trying to tack on dealership fees. If a vehicle was traded on a purchase to a new vehicle what dealership fees needs to be associate with the traded vehicle. Second the vehicle came with two sets of keys but I was told later after the fact the original owners only gave them one key. Upon inquiry to the second key they said it would only cost $50.00 dollars to replace. Called the Audi dealership and they said it would be about $450.00 to $500.00 to replace. They did not want to accommodate the replacement of the key. They gave me the run around until I said I was going to post a bad review on Facebook. They did not replace the key and furthermore added due to cost savings of the vehicle I purchased I could get a replacement key. I truly will not recommend this dealership to anyone and yes I am still going to write a review on Facebook...... Palm Bay, FL

2010 MDX

Everyone is super nice but don't pay attention to details. I brought a certified used Mdx and I have had to return a few times for VIP things overlooked. Annoyed by the lack of attention.
