This is from 4/4/13 prior to them changing their name, probably due to all their low ratings. I felt it necessary to repost my review in order to save anyone else from getting the shaft from these guys. (I recently returned my awful Audi that I had leased and am now happily driving a new BMW from Kuni. Our experience there is top notch and without incident--what a luxury car and service ought to be.)
I don't even know how to begin. We leased our 1st Audi from these hucksters and it is our 1st and last Audi. We will NEVER give these jerks our business again.
The first thing we noticed was that they seemed completely uninterested in our business when we were beginning our search. We'd make an appointment and they'd either be late or say they didn't know we had one. From there it just got worse, and if it weren't for being such a huge financial issue, it would be comical.
In short, we were leased a car that is completely and utterly defective. We brought it in as early as only 5 days into our lease. The car stayed there for over a month! (We had 5 different rental cars and were made to keep returning our rentals because other people needed them! We were continually driving there to swap out the rentals as our actual leased car was 'being worked on' for over a month.)
There were 3 main things wrong with it. The most serious being the actual orientation of the driver seat. It is oriented to the right, and smashes up against the center console. When the seat is moved forward, closer to pedals, it makes a screeching sound as it is being forced harder into the center console. The real problem, and the worst of them, is that the car is unbearably painful to drive as a result of its incorrect orientation. It twists the back while seated!
The second issue was the driver door, it rattled loudly. It turned out that it was completely warped. We waited a month for the door to arrive from Germany. The last issue was the speakers. Those supposedly fancy Bang & Olufsen speakers are likely installed improperly resulting in a shaking and rattling sound during any bass playing sounds.
The service guy (whose name I won't mention but should) and the salesman who sold us our car would not acknowledge these obvious problems, so we wrote a letter to the manager(s) of the departments we were working with and the manager of the dealership. We never even received an acknowledgment that our letter was received. When we inquired about the letter to the salesman, he just confirmed that it was received and that was that.
In the end, they would only acknowledge 1 problem, which was the warped door. I actually took driver seat photos with a service technician of 5 other exact models. When compared with our driver seat, it was obvious that our seat was defective. The other technician who received my uploaded photos would say that 'it's normal when compared' which it is not. This tech also viewed our car in person. I have showed about 60 people the photos, a few friends have seen our car live and everyone is astonished, as are we that the dealership refuses to 'see' that this car's drivers seat is defective.
We're stuck with this lemon (which still rattles and shakes from the front of the car now) and I have to deal with the chronic pain in my back and tailbone from sitting on this seat. Because I am a rehabilitation therapist, I ordered a special wheelchair cushion for the drivers seat (with a professional discount). It helps, but only a little. It also slides around making it less effective with pain.
The last comic thing was that just this afternoon, we received our 'welcome to Audi package' with a DVD and a quick start guide to the numerous features that we bought for our model. This package is only 5 months late.
If we, for whatever reason, would ever want an audi again, we will go to the other dealership in Wilsonville or to a different state. We will never give these hucksters our money, energy or time again. read more
