Reviews:

We bought a used 2008 Prius from this dealership on 1/18/13 that had less than 50k miles on it. We declined the extended warranty, because we knew it would have the 60k mile powertrain warranty, and who would expect a car with less than 50k miles to break down? One of the selling points that made us pay an extra $1000.00 over what we wanted to pay was that "This is a good car that`s gone through a 118 point insp... view moreection that you won`t have to fix" (according to our salesman). Six days later, on 1/24/13, the car died completely. It took my husband over an hour to get it home, having to drive it for 20 seconds at a time before it would completely die again. My husband called our salesman, who literally told us we were out of luck since we didn`t buy the extended warranty. I then called the used sales manager, who told me the same thing (after hanging up on me once). He finally agreed to have it towed to his service department, but said they probably wouldn`t be able to fix it, since it`s a Prius. The next day, my husband was so irritated with dealing with the rude sales manager that he called the General Manager, Wes Burke (who is named in some of the replies from VW of Alamo Heights). Wes was very helpful...at the beginning. He told us to have the car towed from New Braunfels to a Toyota dealership in San Antonio (at our expense), and find out if anything could be fixed under warranty. According to Toyota, none of the problems are under warranty, including the auxiliary battery, which goes out slowly, and which should have been caught by the "118 point inspection" done by the dealership before they sell it. When I called Wes back to let him know that the repairs on our 6-day old car are over $700.00, he told me he was pretty sure he wasn`t going to do anything, but he would pull the papers from the sale. After waiting for a call back for an hour, I called constantly for 20 minutes until someone finally answered, and he only agreed to pay 178.00 of the 700.00 repairs. I am very disappointed with this dealership, their customer service, and their so-called "inspection" that should have, at the very least, caught that the auxiliary battery was going out. I will still be calling their corporate office (Group 1 Automotive, for anyone else who needs to know) to let them know about this dealership`s customer service (especially the sales manager who hung up on me).
