    Daughter's new Golf!
    Aaron D.

    I was shocked to look this place up and see lower review scores than what I experienced. I was looking for a car for my daughter for months and a VW Golf popped up on auto trader which was at this dealership. I'm from out of state but was willing to travel to get the right car since the Golf's are pretty hard to find right now. I reserved the car through their website. It didn't even require a deposit though I was willing to do that if necessary. Their website system for reserving was good and the next day the online sales manager called to work through details and put me in touch with Gavyn who was a new sales guy (just graduated high school). Gavyn did a video walk around of the car for me via FaceTime. I booked a flight to pick up the car. Gavyn was sick the day I flew in so Jordan stepped in. He picked me up from the airport which was super nice. Great guy, friendly, honest. Did a quick test drive and the car was indeed what they said it was, which was a relief after flying up there sight unseen besides FaceTime. Paperwork was a little slow because their usual finance person was out sick so a woman from the Subaru dealership stepped in to process everything. Although she offered a bunch of extras as dealerships always do, she wasn't pushy at all. Because I was buying from out of state they set up all the registration stuff for me which made it super convenient. The DMV's across WA and CA are slammed so it took a few weeks but sure enough the registration paperwork was all in order and as simple as could be. There were some rubber floor mats we realized we're missing when I picked up the car. They had them shipped to my home address. This was literally the best car buying experience I've ever had and I've purchased at least 10 cars since my early 20's. I've had some other positive experiences and some negative ones as well. But honestly, the team at this dealership was incredible. I kept waiting for the bottom to fall out and for some terrible surprise based on general car buying experiences but I can vouch for Spokane VW without any reservations at all. My next VW or Audi purchase will absolutely be with them as well, regardless of them being out of state just based on this experience.

Autonation did seem to agree on the 5 day/250 mile warranty... But, to help me with it was far from seen, I had to find parts and the gauge cluster is hard to find as many know. Autonation dragged thier feet then refered me to ford dealer. To find problem. I wanted original roush gauges, then left to me. I did not drive it due tue issue. Still after 3 weeks its now sitting in my shop. I've been trying to comunicate with the used car manager and twice responded with nothing other than refering to the salesman. No help in any way. I love the car and will keep it but good luck with any help from manager on any used car issue.. Now autonation finance is another issue, I got my first payment notice. Called to pay off loan at $11,046. They refused to take a full payment. Said i could only process $10,000 but in two $5,000 payments. ( those were back to back, like why not one payment) Leaving a ballance of $1,046 and refused that, say i had to wait a week. Never in my life have i had any issues of this nature. I do want to add it is a very nice car. Just did not get much cooperation.

The parts department is super helpful and knowledgeable aswell and going in and being able to look at the oem diagrams of the car is really nice when needing specific stuff and they take the time to do that and aside of all that their waiting room is comfortable and clean with coffee, other drinks, and a lot of audi decorations / accessories if your a car head, along with their shuttle service if your having your vehicle worked on and want to go home or anywhere close to not be just sitting at the dealer, super friendly people that run the shuttles and very easy to communicate with keeping you updated on your vehicle and letting you know when they will be on the way, all of the guys in the service department are also stellar! From sending you video updates of how everything is going and keeping everything how it was before and clean! Their show room floor is beautiful with all the wall art and inventory, everyone has been absolutely amazing everytime we have been down there!

Waited a week with little to no communication until I called in for an update. It was then that they stated that I didn't have the warranty it was the previous owner and they claimed they don't see the critical info like names etc. This is a 5k repair for an AUDI issue they have known about for years. Several online complaints and forums about this faulty part that the customer has to pay for out of pocket. I returned to get my car and will take it somewhere else. It's interesting how eager and convincing they are when you are buying the vehicle, but when it comes to quality service afterwards it's not there. I have owned a few audi's and have NEVER had this AWD issue. I can also say from experience, the service department USED to be the best. Do your research everyone before purchasing because you will get stuck with a 5k repair pretty quickly. And don't expect "service" from the service department. It seems alot of these reviews are in agreeance on that. Also from a prior visit for an oil change/service, I was told my brakes were "close" to needing replacement, and on this visit they told me my brakes were in the green and fine. Not sure if the culture is upsell upsell upsell or if nobody is paying very close attention or cares to pay close attention to the details.

Unlike a downtown dealer, I've never felt like they were trying to pull one over on me. Like most auto maintenance you can pay for convenience or DIY. They don't over pressure you either way, so I pick and choose what I have them do vs what I do myself. No scare tactics or anything like that ever used when I discuss with them what I will do vs what they will do. For instance, I personally hate doing oil changes myself, so will use them for that if I need other work done. Also had them install a OEM hitch because I have the lift gate kick sensor as well and had to be moved when the hitch was installed. I selected the OEM hitch because it looks much better than the aftermarket ones.

Hard sell on the warranty. There are major issues with internal comms. More than once I have contacted them about simple service related items. They tell me, "ok, come in any time." But then I show up and their service department is completely confused and I end up having to make an appointment and come back. The latest had to do with getting a front license plate bracket installed because they didn't install it when I bought it (I should have made them install it when I bought it). First time I emailed Nick who made a big show of "email me for anything." No answer. Then I call, they say 'come on in' and like an idiot I believe them. When I get there they turf me to AutoNation Acura next door, who are all confused because no one from Honda gave them any heads up about my coming over. Yesterday same thing happens. I made the mistake of believing the person I spoke to who said "come on in". Service ppl are again confused, say they don't have the bracket but can order one and tell me just show up to Acura and they'll install it. Tell me why I showed up to Acura today, they have 2013 and 2015 brackets but not 2014. Those Honda clowns either didn't order it or ordered the wrong one. Acura is ordering for me directly and ill show up tomorrow to have it installed. I trust them, but not Honda. I regret buying from autonation Honda. Worst experience ever.

The…read moreinitial process was great, and we felt well taken care of, only for us to find out later that they blatantly lied all over the place. They also did not know basic information about the vehicle that would have been apparent even to many car novices, so I would surmise they take vehicles straight from auction to sale without any sort of inspection. If you do go to them, buyer beware and do your due diligence. EDIT for clarity re: the owner's response. I did NOT send a third party, that is semantic word smithing to avoid accountability. The person they are calling a "third party" is my husband, who is the primary owner of the vehicle in practice, if not on paper. Calling him a "third party" because we chose to purchase in my name for better financing is laughable. Yes, we were remiss in not getting an independent inspection and that is our lesson to learn. However, our mistakes do not excuse unethical business practices such as lying about where they obtained the vehicle.

They were very transparent and non-pressuring. I am absolutely in love with my car and I appreciate all they were able to do to make this happen for me and not turn me upside down or to where I had payments I couldn't afford.

    ZERO STARS This used to be my trusted mechanic and I'm so…read moreupset I have to write this but I don't want anyone to deal with what I'm dealing with. I bought my mini cooper from this business and the experience was great! I subsequently took my car into Bill every time and thought he was honest and had integrity. As single woman, I had other mechanics present as untrustworthy so it was wonderful find an honest dealership. NOPE! My mini cooper is now almost destroyed because of their shoddy work and I'm out thousands of dollars and I've had the run around. Below is part of the complaint I've made to both the BBB and Attorney Generals Office. We are waiting on a response from the business to determine if small claims court is next to recoup our losses. He installed after market parts in my car repeatedly with repairs lasting barely two years. THERE IS A PATTERN HERE OF CHEAP PARTS, NO ACCOUNTABILITY, MYSTERY CHARGES AND ZERO TRANSPARENCY. HE WILL PUT IN CHEAP AFTER MARKET PARTS THAT WILL CRAP OUT IN ABOUT TWO YEARS AND DESTROY YOUR ENGINE. BELOW IS PART OF THE LEGAL FILINGS WITH BBB AND ATTORNEY GENERAL OFFICE : I am writing to formally demand immediate resolution regarding the defective turbo installation and associated damages to my vehicle, which directly stem from your shop's substandard workmanship and repeated use of faulty parts. This is not the first time I have been left to bear the financial and emotional burden of your shop's negligence, and I will not tolerate this pattern any longer. The Facts Defective Turbo Installation and Catastrophic Damage: The turbo installed in my vehicle has suffered a catastrophic failure in just over two years, despite the fact that I rarely drive my car. The failure has caused 3 liters of oil to pour into the catalytic converter and seep into the tubing, leaving my vehicle in a disastrous state and requiring extensive corrective work. History of Shoddy Workmanship and Defective Parts: You replaced the valve cover, but that repair barely lasted two years before the part failed. Despite the warranty, I was forced to cover out-of-pocket expenses that should have been fully covered. Now, the turbo you selected and installed--a critical component--has proven equally unreliable, further demonstrating a troubling trend of subpar repairs. Lack of Transparency: Despite my repeated requests, you have failed to provide a receipt or clear documentation for the turbo's cost. The only receipt you've shown is for $298 for mounting pieces, leaving $702 unaccounted for in the $1,000 charged. Your refusal to provide basic documentation raises serious questions about transparency and accountability. Negligence in Professional Standards: Your shop's continued reliance on parts that do not meet quality standards, coupled with inadequate accountability for failures, has cost me time, money, and trust. You've stated in the past that you operate with integrity and "family values." Yet, this is the second time I've had to deal with defective parts from your shop, and the financial and emotional toll is staggering. You've acknowledged the turbo failure may be covered under warranty, but even so, this situation highlights the systemic issues with your choice of parts and service quality.

I would NEVER recommend them, they do shotty work, and con artists when it comes to selling you "reliable" cars and doing "reliable" work to maintenance those cars. The amount of times they put our family in true dangerous situations is ridiculous. And them pushing these crappy warranties on you is bogus. They even submit false claims to the warranty company, get their replacement parts from junk yards, and don't even complete work that they then bill you for. The only reason we continued to bring our car for maintenance with them was because we wanted it covered under the warranty. OH! And they claimed as your car depreciates in value, so does your warranty coverage - COMPLETE bogus and false information. That is NOT how warranties work. Within the last year, Car Emporium "completed" maintenance on our car to "fix" it, billed the warranty company and us as well for false work. I kid you not, just 2 months after they "completed" their work, it died on the side of the road on two separate occasions. Both times, we took it back to our trusted mechanic who did the same work all over again that we had already thought was done by Car Emporium, so even more money out the door. It is absolutely ridiculous, and I will say it until I am blue in the face - DO NOT EVERRRRR buy cars from this dealership!!!!!!!!!!!!
