Tito was a wonderful salesman. We were very happy with the service we received. Tito gave his professional opinion and not once did we feel pressured to make a decision. We never felt rushed and continuously felt like we were his top priority. Great business and great people! read more

Dan Beckleman and Nick Malanga were both polite, friendly and professional during the process. Finances were set up and they found me just the vehicle I wanted. It was a pleasure doing business with them. At delivery Nick spent the right amount of time showing me what all the features of the car were and how they worked and explained how the VW Certified Vehicle system worked, read more

Best car by experience I have ever had. My sales person Vlad Voskoboynikov was knowledgeable and informative. His no pressure sales style fit exactly with my customer needs. All employees were pleasant and worked extremely well together for a fast and efficient process. Honored all things agreed upon and worked hard to make my buying experience hassle free, fast, and convenient. Will absolutely become a repeat customer! read more

TO Head of Service: I've needed to use your department more than once. First time, 'we wash your car each time'~got it back clean, people were kind. The gentleman who should have taken me by alphabet didn't. Facing, he sat to the right of Dominic and treated me with kindness and great respect. Last 2 times Dominic helped me. Might get the job done, yet indifferent to me as a human being and could care less about me or why I am there. BOTH times, LOANER CARS truly disgusting. Dirt , mud, in the seats, everywhere. & SMOKY! WHEN I GOT MY CAR BACK, LAST 2 TIMES, the inside filthy. Yesterday, again, the gas and break pedals full of mud. RUBBER MAT AGAIN! greasy !!muddy. No paper ever on the floor. BOTH front windows fully down, which in a car being taken care of properly you don't do!! and the inside seats, dashboard, everything filthy. There was another scratch where the key goes into the ignition, radio panel full of finger prints, scuff marks by the door. I take care of my car. I asked Dominic, which I shouldn't have to do! to please have the gentleman be careful inside the car. I need a new driver rubber mat now. The felt on the windows now have dirt where they didn't before. YOu've shown me and my car no respect. I should have nothing to complain about ; people being mistreated & companies misrepresent themselves warrant how I feel. I care about being treated kindly~Dominic doesn't know how to do that. & no one has yet to treat my car with the same respect they'd treat one they truly cared about and wanted to keep as clean and in good standing as possible. I am thoroughly disappointed, and actually a bit disgusted you could treat someone else's EXPENSIVE car like this. read more

Fake deals to draw you in. Third time I happily drive to the place with cash deposit and they tell me it was sold this time 1 week ago. Stay away unless you want to be honey d*****. read more

Sales and finance guys are very cool; nice guys. Brought my car in for service today and the service guy (Dom) gave me a really bad vibe. He never looked at me when we spoke; exhausted every effort to ensure the car I bought 6 months ago was still under warranty; the loaner (yuck!) as if i was given a decent car I wouldn't return it. I want to find another dealer for future service. I would have given them 4-5 stars before I met this guy. read more

David was really great. This was the best experience I ever had buying a car. He was very nice an pleasent to work with . I don't have great credit . He mad this transaction very easy. I plan to buy me next car only from David at Douglas Juinor A read more

When I needed a car that my elderly parents could get in I checked AARP for cars that were senior friendly. I was delighted to see the VW Tiguano listed. I went straight to Douglas Motors and Isaac Bunton who sold us our GTI a couple of years ago. And that was such a good experience I wanted to go back there. I knew that Isaac would have just the right car for me and would help me in any way he could. And he did! He is fabulous! I would recommend him to anyone and everyone who is interested in buying a VW. read more

I really wanted to buy a 2013 VW Sportswagen after months of comparison shopping. I called two hours ahead for a test drive and was told "no problem." My husband, daughter and I arrived and waited 30 minutes for a sales person to finally acknowledge our existence. We were sitting in the car, opening the hood and the tailgate. Obviously interested. When we finally got a sales person, we waited 20 minutes for them to bring the right car over from the other lot. Then we were told it would be another 20 minutes for them to disable some lock on the engine that prevented it from going over 25 mph. At that point we told them to forget it and left. Too bad, because I would've purchased one that day. Now I have a brand new Minicooper Countryman. BTW, when someone is standing outside your manager's office, it probably isn't a good idea to talk badly about the other customers you are trying to close a deal with. I overheard some really nasty comments. Next time I want a VW, I'll got to Trend Motors. read more

I was lured to this dealership a few days ago from someone stating they did special financing and they had a program based on your income not your credit. When I got there it was a different story because I know I make more than enough to finance a vehicle. After being there for an hour of them asking me to be patient they are working on it, I was told there was nothing they could do for me and I would need a co signer after I already expressed that wasn't a possiblity . after I left credit karma alerted me I had been run through 11 different banks , that's not only excessive its abusive for someone with already damaged credit. I am now dealing with the aftermath of that. read more

I have been also a Douglas customer for 6 years. They did good work on my older Jetta. I ended up buying a new GLI. The first service visit was good. Then they changed service managers. The service manager I've been working with was replaced with a new manager named Brian Ardente. The good customer service left with the old service manager as well as transparency. I told them my sunroof was making a squeaking sound while opening. I was informed that the sunroof frame would need replacing without much reason as to why. I brought in my car, and two days later, the sunroof frame was replaced. As a result of this work a noticeable and audible rattle formed as the sunshade now was hitting the sunroof assembly over minor bumps (the rattle was extremely noticeable over the bumpy roads in North NJ). The initial returning of the car saw the sunroof leaking water and not being aligned at all with the body of the car. They told me this was adjusted (which it was) and that the rattle was also gone because of this. I took delivery of the car a second time, still the noticeable rattle when the sunshade is open. I brought the car back, a third time, and i received an eye roll from Brian the service manager telling me to notice how many miles they put on the car test driving it. I took him for one ride and he heard the rattle immediately. They took the car back in and worked on it for 3 days. When i finally received my car, the rattle was there, along with two rubber stoppers that served no purpose what so ever. He also told me the rattle was similar to other cars they had on the lot. To prove this to myself i test drove other Jettas and GLIs, no rattle. Feeling helpless i called VW of America to complain. They called Douglas VW who told them almost all of the rattle had been removed and that it is a normal sound. He also told VW of America the line about it being the same as the other cars. As a result i am taking the car for a paid second opinion to another VW dealer and will no longer be taking my car to Douglas VW Service. Essentially once the dealer did the work, which was paid under warranty, it never at one point disassembled the headliner again to see where the rattle was coming from. I am truly disappointed in the lack of accountability at Douglas VW after being such a loyal customer. read more

"WARNING!! DO NOT BUY FROM THIS DEALER - REGRETFULL EXPERIENCE!!" These guys seem to post a lot of fake reviews to mislead their customers. I have been leasing two vehicles for the last eighteen years from different dealers and never had a problem until I leased with Douglas Volkswagen. I was enticed by their 2014 labor day weekend specials on VW Jettas. I was currently leasing a VW Passat and the lease was nearly up, so I decided to take a 3 years lease with Douglas Volkswagen and since I was a repeat VW customer I expected the standard trade-in benefits of milage and wear & tear. Everything was quiet until in late December 2014 I received a bill from Volkswagen corporate requesting payment for wear & tear and late fees, this was the first time I was alerted to the problem. I reached out to the dealer to inquire about this and was told to basically go pound sand. Then I reached out to Volkswagen Customer Care and was told that the dealer usually takes care of these fees (so again, go pound sand). Next I filed a complaint with the better business bureau (bbb.org) and sent a copy of my complaint via email to the president Peter Liebman of Douglas Volkswagen and I never received an acknowledgement or response (again they don't care for my repeat business - so go pound sand). It cost time, aggravation and un-expected expenses. So the labor day savings turned out to be a drastic expense so its safe to say I will never do business with Douglas Volkswagen ever again as they refuse to work out anything with me. I can only share my negative experience in the hopes that they can't victimize others. Update 5/23/2015 - The better business bureau contacted my with a settlement offer from VW Douglas and I accepted the terms only to find out that they needed to close the complaint as resolved and not live up to their commitment. I just received a bill from VW Credit indicating refusal from the dealer. read more

Do not buy a car from them. They lied to me and swindled me. I was a sucker for listening to them and giving them my business. Here are the specifics- Right from the start, Douglas Volkswagen lied to me. The salesperson lied to me and said the car had been accident-free. 1) I quickly realized that the different parts of the car were not even the same color, due to the undisclosed accident and the need to replace large portions of the car. 2) Kurt Steger then sold me insurance that he promised would cover the car from bumper to bumper (photo attached of this promise), but every time I came in to get it fixed, Douglas finds some excuse why they have to charge me and why they will not fix what they promised. More on this below. 3) As I drive out of the lot, the license plate falls off because they had just wedged it on. No screws. No bolts. Luckily, I heard it hit the ground and I turned back in around in their lot to fix it. 4) When I return, I realize they gave me a license plate that expires April 15th. They gave me the plate on April 18th. 5) Also, when I drove off the lot initially, the front seat arm rest instantly falls apart. 6) They sold off my cell phone number, either through the insurance or through my purchase of the car. I never give out my number, but for some strange reason, I trusted Douglas Volkswagen and now all sorts of Volkswagen and Volkswagen affiliates call me. I have no proof that it was Douglas that sold off my contact information, but given all the calls are associated with VW and began after I bought the car, it seems likely that it was Douglas. 7) Each time I bring the car back in to get it fixed, they charge me a "diagnosis fee". This is completely inconsistent with the "bumper to bumper" coverage (photo attached of this promise) I was promised by Kurt Steger. 8) In September 2012, my driver side window failed completely. In trying to get the window to go up, the window shattered inside the door. 9) When they replaced the window in the door, Douglas Volkswagen severed the electrical connection in the door leading to the gas cap and trunk. I couldn't get the gas pump lid open and therefore couldn't fill up with gas. Again, I had to come in and drop off the car. 10) In April 2013, once again, the window would not go up. This time, the window did not shatter inside the door, but had to come back in..... again... and again.... and again. 11) In June 2014, the airbag symbol came on. Douglas Volkwagen has refused to fix that, despite "Electrical" being clearly included as part of my insurance coverage. 12) I came in to get a head light fixed. In a brief moment of honesty, Douglas tells me that the headlight is actually not the problem, but rather the electrical connection to the headlight which they fixed. However, Douglas immediately reverted to their awful ways as the headlight went out again within a week. Douglas still has not fixed that connection. Once again, "Electrical" is clearly included as part of my insurance coverage, but Douglas does not stand by their word. 13) Given that the car is full of replacement parts from the accident prior to my ownership, those parts are now peeling paint, which Douglas refuses to fix. Douglas's business practices have been underhanded and despicable. read more

I went to their garage to have my car checked because my 2007 Passat airbag light is on. A mistake I made was that I also mentioned a few other small issues that my car had and asked them to look at. The guy receiving me gave me a blanket quote of 235 upfront for diagnosis ONLY, without breaking down into items, which I should have insisted. At 11 am they called me and told me there need some rewiring for that airbag fix, and the total for that alone upped to 320 plus. Grudgingly I agreed to the work done--tell me about the information asymmetry here. Bottom line is, at end of day, I paid 670 for the whole order, including an oil change, tire rotation, pollen filter replacement, fixing a loose clamp of the exhaustion system, after a 10% discount. And the window problem I asked them to look at still got unfixed. Overall, I am happy with their loaner car, a GTI, almost new, free concession at the waiting area, generally decent environment and staff, but unhappy with the lack of transparency with the airbag problem. Seems to me they swept every unexplainable charges under that carpet. I don't have evidence but can't stop feeling that way. For this reason, a two star. read more

Don't give them your email address. For three years I've been receiving emails and requested over a dozen times to be removed.

Typical switch and bait dealer. Called to make appointment to see Acadia in recent add. Sales manager pushed me off to the new saleswomen(very green,unorganized) after waiting a hour to see car we were told that car has sold. She then procedded to show me a similar Acadia( same exact sticker as the one in the add) for $4000 more. Said its the best she could do. FRAUD!. I THINK THE REAL PROBLEM WITH GM IS THE DEALERS, NOT THE CARS. read more

I have been a loyal customer at another VW dealership for the past three years. The only reason I came to Douglas was to test drive the car the other dealership didn't have and wasn't too enthusiastic on helping me with. My original plan was to test drive the car with the intention of selecting one I was going to lease. However, to my utter surprise I really liked a totally different car which was a drastic departure from the Jettas I have had over the past five years. Not only that but the car I like was only available for purchase and not a lease which was another first for me. Given all of those factors to say that I was hesitant would be an understatement...and that is where Douglas VW really shined. I was working with Vlad V who pulled the car out of the show room for me to drive and seeing my hesitation offered to arrange for me to keep the car over the upcoming weekend so I could see if it's something I really wanted to commit to. I have never had a sales person go that far to help a customer make a decision. It completely sealed the deal for me. I came back after keeping the car for the weekend and was in love with it. But there is still was an issue of buying and the price of course. While I was dreading the next few hours they turned out to be actually fun. Vlad helped me get a price I was comfortable with and was infinitely patient with all my questions. While by the time I made up my money the dealership was closing they stayed open for me and got their people to detail the car so I could take it home that evening. My financial manager Chris was a pleasant surprise in and of itself. He didn't attempt to feed me any bullshit, explained all my options clearly, made his suggestions/recommendations and let me to making my decisions with no pressure. He went above and beyond working with my budget and if it wasn't for his final touches I probably wouldn't be enjoying my Baby Bug today. Overall, who knew that car shopping could be fun and non-threatening. I absolutely felt that those people had my interest in mind and weren't driven by bare profit. read more

Jeremy Gutierrez was a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. He made sure my 2017 Touareg was exactly the way I dreamed. He made purchasing a new car hassle free and addressed all my questions and concerns in a professional manner. read more

Fell in love with the Mk6 GTI during a test drive at Douglas VW. Due to job circumstances it took another 5 months for me to drive one off the lot, but my sales rep (Jeremy Gutierrez) took care of me from day one. I cannot say enough about Jeremy, who was knowledgeable, friendly, and always responsive. I got a great deal with zero hassle and no games, and Jeremy even went out of his way to arrange for me to get into a 2011 model instead of a 2010 as originally planned. I truly could not have had a smoother, more pleasant experience. Two trips to the service department (one for scheduled maintenance, one for a pothole-damaged tire replacement) have also been great as well. read more

Chris was my sales guy. He was excellent and answered all my questions - very honest and trustworthy. He made the whole process easy and pressure free. read more

Used AutoByTel to request a price from local VW dealers for a 2012 Sportwagon. Bob Cerza at Douglas was the first to respond, so we took a test drive with him. Nice car! And Bob was very easy to talk to. We negotiated with Bob via e-mail, which was very convenient. He responded quickly to every text message or e-mail, and eventually I feel we worked out a great price. Everything about the shopping experience was positive. read more

Already a Douglas customer. I wasn't planning on getting a new car yet because my lease was still months away, but Jeremy called my up & told me about the opportunity of a pull ahead program. Had a 2010 GTI & he put me into a brand new GTI for pretty much same price, so it was a no brainer. Highly recommend Jeremy and Douglas VW.. read more

On a road trip from Boston to New York this past weekend, my car suddenly started vibrating and I knew something was wrong. I was headed for a brief stop in New Jersey and looked up the closest Volkswagen dealership. I have owned five Volkswagens and believe the dealerships are always the best place for service. Prices are usually fair and nobody knows Volkswagens better than the dealers. As it was a Saturday, I was nervous that no dealership would even be open. Luckily, Douglas Volkswagen was not only open but their service department was working. The service manager, Brian Ardente, spoke to me on the phone and told me he would make time for me to get my car in there. Once I got to the dealership, everyone was incredibly friendly and professional. The service team immediately looked at my car and gave me their diagnosis. They offered to find me aftermarket parts to save me some of the cost of repairs and even gave me a free loaner since the repairs would take a couple of days. Brian was in touch with me as promised and tried to be as optimistic as he could about the costs/severity of the repair without misleading me, which I appreciated. I never doubted that they thoroughly tested, fixed and re-tested my vehicle. I picked up the car on Monday and it drives great. It's scary enough to have your car malfunction while you're driving at a high speed on the highway but to have it happen when you're far from home (and your usual dealership) makes things way more stressful. Rich, the Douglas GM, and Brian did everything they could to make me feel taken care of. I couldn't recommend this dealership more wholeheartedly. Thanks, guys! read more

I bought a VW Beetle Convertible last month from Douglas Volkswagen. Not only am I in love with my car, but this place was great! They are all very patient and knowledgeable. My sales rep, Vlad, was a great help and did numerous searches for the EXACT car i wanted! I was referred by a friend and now I'm excited to be able to refer others! This isn't even the closest VW dealership to me, but I took the drive out and it was worth it! read more

I recently purchased a 2014 VW Passat from Isaac Bunton at Douglas VW. Isaac was great. I enjoyed working through the process with him. He was patient, professional and a clear communicator.

This is the second car we got from Douglas Volkswagen with Isaac Bunton as our Sales Consultant. I was looking to trade in my 2007 Jetta for a 2012 Beetle as long as my budget was met and I got a good trade-in value for my car. Both budget needs were met and Isaac really worked to make sure it happened. He really tried to make sure I was comfortable with the whole process and was never pushy like the other dealership I had originally went to. The Beetle I selected was actually coming from another dealership and he called me everyday to give me the progress of it and updates on when I should be receiving it. I've had it since Friday, Today is a Monday and he called me to see how my first weekend with the car went and to see if I had any concerns. I will definitely recommend Issac and Douglas Volkswagen to anyone looking to buy a car! read more

I've had my car serviced with Douglas motors for about 4 years now. I have always had great service.I have never had a problem scheduling an appointment and I've never had to bring my car back because something wasn't done right. I think the costs are comparable to other car repair places, not bargain basement but not over the top. The waiting room is pleasant and coffee and snacks an added bonus. I highly recommend this dealership for service. read more

I had a wonderful experience at Douglas Volkswagen. From the minute I walked in the door to the moment I drove off the lot with my new jetta SE.
