Brown's Auto Sales has proven itself to be the best car dealer not only in Midlothian, but in the entire country as far as I am concerned. The salesman are open and honest and work in a no pressure sales environment. They keep their promises and make the car buying experience a fun event! If you want to work with honest helpful people that will work to make the car buying experience a positive one for you, then go to Brown's to get the cleanest new and used vehicles available at the best prices. Not only were the vehicles the best prices in Richmond, they also offer extended warranties on new and used cars that I have also found to be the best prices in Richmond. read more

I have just recently become a customer of Brown's and so far I have been impressed and treated very well. The purchase of my VW when fairly smoothly, they had a good inventory, and the prices were reasonable. People at Browns, form Sales, to Service and those in between are very friendly. I also had the opportunity to have some service completed on my VW and the service group was great! Even though I'm new to Browns I would expect to enjoy being a customer for a long while.

I have purchased 3 cars from this dealer in 1-1/2 years. I almost purchased a 4th today. The service department is super. The sales and financing staff in my opinion is terrible. The first car, new Pasat, delivered to us with a dent in the roof. Lucky we noticed it before departing the dealer. Second car, the engine compartment full of leaves and sticks, appeared to never been opened for delivery routines. Third car we were deceived regarding a purchased maintenance agreement on it and the second car. Of course the financing ace that sold us on it is long gone, they couldn't even produce the paperwork showing us the agreement the financing person had to sell us on the product. They are being difficult in righting the situation. Making it very difficult to obtain a refund for the agreement and trying to "prorate" something not used. My next set will be VW America and then court if I am not satisfied. JUST BEWARE. read more

Inventory selection was excellent!!!! And they were in great shape with the right mileage!!! While the sticker prices were a bit high they made it fair by offering a generous trade on my old car. They have to make money and we both left very happy. Deal-making went well. Post-sales was average but fine. Would recommend and would return. read more

To reply to "Mark" who is apparently the "GM" of this establishment... Brown's VW has transgressed so far beyond the realm of acceptable behavior and customer service that a phone call with will not even come close to fixing the situation. I have been in contact with the real professionals at VW of North America to explain my grievances with their dealership management department. Going forward, as they work to solve the problems that Brown's VW created, please plan to direct any questions through their team. read more

Unless your having warranty work done you would have to be mad to take your car here. I recently replaced a faulty electrical sensor attached to my engine for $85 and 15 minutes of my time. What was Brown's price for the same job? OVER $500! This is why they call them "stealerships" folks. read more

Mary was excellent as my contact in the service area. She was polite, Very knowledgeable, and was able to explain the information about the service coupons (as I haven't needed to use them yet) and some coupons I received in the mail I knew my car was in good hands,one less thing to worry about. And she called me after about 2 hours, that my car was ready and answered all my questions over the phone. I was there shortly after and (the other womank there, I don't remember her name) she explained my invoice to me, where my car was. I was in and out in 10 minutes. This was a true example excellent customer service, and was a true pleasure. Thanks. read more

They were fair when I purchased my 2013 Golf and they have been great every time I've been in for service. I had rocks stuck in my wheel recently and they removed them for free - twice. I'd recommend them to anyone, even my mom. read more

Courtesy, knowledge, professionalism, accommodation to ensure not left stranded, focused on the long term relationship with the customer, reliable, clean, patient, top notch sales and service personnel read more

The service department is honest and efficient. They are always going above and beyond in their handling of my car. And everybody is so polite! I bought my car in 2012 And since then every time I go back it's a pleasure and I have highly recommended this dealership to everyone I know! read more

As usual, they did a great job with the timely and friendly servicing of our car. Getting in and out was easy and they were very accommodating of our time while we waited. Mary was a Superstar as always:) read more

My husband and I just had the most exceptional car buying experience with Ted Sisk of Brown's Volkswagen. Ted was kind, helpful, informative and worked hard to match us with the perfect vehicle and keep us informed throughout the process. Once our car arrived in Richmond, he took a great deal of time to teach us how to use all the technology the car offered. We never felt pressured, yet he communicated with us promptly at each step. We truly felt as though we were working with a friend or family member. He helped us get a great deal, too, and I'm tough to please when it comes to car pricing. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Ted Sisk and Brown's to anyone. He is honest, very knowledgeable about cars and committed to his customers. We're thrilled with our VW Golf! read more

The service writers are always helpful and do their best to make me feel like they're looking out for my best interests. All of my past experiences have been good at Brown's, and they have repaired my vehicle with excellent results and minimal cost. The shop's diagnostic skills seem to be very good and they ended up saving me unnecessary trial-and-error repair expense. read more

I bought happy from Brown's in 2007 and have maintained a relationship with them for maintenance and repairs. Well on yesterday after 9 years I traded in my old Passat for a brand spanking new one! This is a shout out to ALL the employees that work there from sales to service. I have always felt like my business was appreciated...having lived in this area for most of my life this has not always been the case with other car dealerships. #BuyHappy read more

Really fantastic, quick service. Didn't charge me for a few minor services that other shops would have definitely charged for. I feel like I can really trust them. read more

The service manager offers honest information and will break down what you need done versus everything recommended. Staff is friendly and helpful. Not your typical dealership service experience! read more

Carlos, the salesman, was great to work with. He was knowledgable about the vehicle and very friendly. The Business Manager was very slow. He made many mistakes on the documents and had to reprint them several times. The process took a long time. I wish car buying could take far less time. read more

Friendly, personalized, and professional customer service. Always schedule me as quickly as I need/request or as close to it as possible (usually within 24 hours). Staff always explains service needed to be done either prior and even during service is something else comes up. Jeff and his team do an awesome job, would highly recommend the service department at Brown's VW! read more

We bought a used VW in March. The sales men were all dressed sloppily and weren't welcoming or professional. The finance rep told me I have no credit score. I told him I do, and it is the higher of the two (my husband and myself). I told him he incorrectly typed my SSN. He refused to input it again in my presence. That night I pulled my credit score on all three bureaus and there my score was, and still the higher of the two. He got quiet and short when we refused the warranty, which was the same amount as our used car!! Well, only 33.4 miles into driving it, the check engine light came on. 40 miles into driving it the front passenger side wheel wobbled upon accelerating. I was so mad, as I bought this vehicle to transport my two kids (who are both under two). I took it to a local mechanic as I did not trust VW. $2700 later, we have a safe vehicle. The mechanic said they did such poor work, with extremely cheap parts, "fixing" all the things that VW said they replaced or fixed, that VW caused to much more damage to the vehicle. The wheel was very loose, and unsafe. Leaks everywhere. Replaced so many other things. So disappointed. I should have known just by their disheveled appearances and lack of service that I was buying a lemon. Just so thankful my kids were not harmed while I was driving it. STAY AWAY from this dealership!!!!! read more

My 2006 Beetle went in for AC issues. I dropped it off knowing the coolant levels were perfect and in fact it would cool somewhat at 2500RPM. Come to find out the compressor valve is the issue being clogged up. Get this - they cant order just a valve because its not in the system. WHAT? I mean seriously I can find valves all over the city. So they want to charge $1000 to replace the compressor instead. They could not give me the model number of the compressor so I could find it myself so I got to get my car. I paid $185 for a leak test basically. When I get the car back I noticed the airbag light stayed on - figured it would reset maybe no big deal. Well I go down the road and get home and realize it didn't cool at all anymore. I waited the next day since I had to work and wouldn't you know it the large plastic guard under the car came off hanging by one screw because they didn't put it back secure! That could have flew off into someones windshield and hurt them bad. Alsdo I put my coolant gauge on the AC and it was almost all in the red showing overcharge. The compressor had went into shutdown mode. So today after taking it in they fixed the airbag light and cover but now say the coolant is OK its the valve that finally decided to shut off completely ironically. Nope I don't believe this at all. Take your car there for complicated issues and you will see what I am talking about. I mean do they have kids from high school working on these cars now? Where are all the good mechanics now? They could at least have refunded half what they charged me since they did nothing but make it worse! read more

OVERCHARGED AND THE HEATER PROBLEM STILL ISN'T FIXED! I took my 2014 VW Jetta TDI on 9/21/15 because my heater quit working they called back and said your the water pump is not working. So they changed that and my timing belt and changed me $1,707.74 So they way overcharged me for Labor which was $1,024.00. We asked to see the water pump "that the impeller was breaking apart" and they couldn't find it!!! So I called and talked to other dealerships and asked them how much it costs to change the water pump and since they were changing that the timing belt along with it.. They all told me $800 - $900. But still my heater is not working at all!!! I also think the reason why they overcharged me is because it was supposed to be covered under extended warranty... and come to find out the extended warranty turned it down and didn't pay. So I had to pay the $1,707.74 out of my pocket. Even called and tried to talk to service depart supervisor and left multiple voicemail's and STILL Waiting on them to call back to discuss this matter!! read more

After a year of research and test driving many different cars, I bought a vehicle from Brown's VW and was happy with my purchase at the time. I've had the car nearly 2 years now and it's performed fine. I recently took the vehicle in for service, paid near $750 for 4 new tires and a 30,000 mile service which included the oil change after I was talked into it. I noticed before I got in my vehicle to leave that they must have kept a 50lb bird in the back because I have never seen so much crap on my car(that they didn't see and we're going to return the vehicle to me that way), I noticed it and the guy cleaned it off. I also noticed that the oil indicator light was not reset and the fluids were not topped off. A sure sign of half ass service! I have called several times to speak with the service manager to express my dissatisfaction and have not received a call back. It's been 2 weeks. The fact is, I DO NOT TRUST this dealer to to a quality job and I WILL NOT be purchasing another vehicle from them. In today's day and age, this level of service is standard and that's so very sad. I hope the GM and the owner of Brown's VW read this review VERY carefully and make some quality control changes IMMEDIATELY. read more
